More often than not, people don't choose their religion. They're born into it. Most religions in general choose men over women. In Catholicism, for example, men can be priests but women can't based on some ridiculous notion that women are unworthy, because Eve ate some fruit from a tree this one time, which apparently expresses that a healthy diet is sinful, but I digress. In an instance where one is born into a particular religion, and does not choose it, people are oppressed into wearing particular pieces of clothing.Originally Posted by Alpha
I also agree with Rowan that a religion as corrupt, immoral, and illogical as Islam shouldn't be exempt from criticism simply because some of its members are unstable extremists, though I would honestly say the exact same thing about every major religion. The fact that people outside of the Muslim religion get death threats for the simple mention of Muhammad is completely absurd, especially considering there is little if no threat of violence when Jesus Christ is blasphemed.
Not to mention that radical Islam is considerably more dangerous than, say, radical Catholicism. I'd rather come face to face with the Westboro Baptist Church than ISIS or al Qaeda.
Also, I saw the Wesboro Baptist Church a few years ago protesting the funeral of Joe Biden's mother, and I flipped them off. That made me happy.
