https://www.someecards.com/news/politics/white-supremacist-muslim-history/Qasim Rashid, a lawyer in Washington, D.C., went viral on Sunday for giving a white supremacistand the interneta much-needed history lesson.
Rashid gets harassed on the internet by anti-Muslim a-holes on the regular. One of them, who was likely quite proud of this "hot take," asked him "Where's the Christian version of ISIS and every other religion then?"
Rashid replied with thousands of years of receipts known as World History.

So-called 'Christians' who rage at Muslims are NOT Christians as far as I am concerned. Motes and Beams, Judge not lest ye be judged, the Good Samaritan, love thy neighbor, and on and on. But they don't practice any of that. I'm not sure who they think Christ was, but he didn't teach 'hate they neighbor if he isn't just like you, or 'kick em to the curb', or 'let 'em get a job', or the like. Makes me sick.

(35,077 posts)14. It might have something to do with the fact that apparently every violent Muslim is part of ISIS
But every violent non-Muslim is "mentally ill", "on drugs", or is a "lone wolf".
