Those who left and those who could not flee speak of a country in ruins and decry the world’s apathy towards the humanitarian crisis and the lack of rights, mainly for women, which a UN report describes as ‘gender apartheid’

    It’s not just Muslims that are fundamentalist extremists. But of every major religion, Islam has the highest rate of that kind of extremism

    Not really…

    There’s over 1.7 billion Muslims in the world, that’s a lot of people.

    But there is no Christian version of the Taliban state or ISIS

    So basically you’re saying we can just ignore all the countries where they’re trying to do it, just ignore them till their in power?

    Nah, I don’t see how that helps anyone except Christian extremists.

      I’m not saying we should ignore anything. I’m saying we shouldn’t ignore the extremely high rate of extremism within Islam.

      But if you want to prove me wrong, point to a single Muslim country where apostasy and homosexuality are socially accepted

        And I’m saying you don’t seem to understand how large a number 1.7 billion is…

        But if you want to prove me wrong, point to a single Muslim country where apostasy and homosexuality are socially accepted

        Lebanon

          Lebanon isn’t a Muslim nation. It has a significant Muslim plurality. And homosexuality is de facto illegal there AND extremely socially unacceptable, with 85% of Lebanese people saying it should be “rejected by society.”

          Give me a Muslim nation where homosexuality and apostasy are both legal and socially acceptable.

          Since you edited your post after I replied like a dirty little liar, here’s a second reply.

          Can I name a Christian majority country where being gay is generally acceptable, being an apostate is generally acceptable, and both are legal? Yeah. Canada, the US, Australia, Spain, the UK, France, Germany, etc, etc, etc.
