Here’s an interesting proposition. MOD note: please keep it respectful.

I wouldn't say all the left hates Christians, i know plenty of liberal christians. You do have to wonder however why other religions aren't held up to the same standards though as far as being tolerant of the LGBTQ

left≠liberal

No one ever said they were equal. Liberals are actually our friends. They want capitalism too

Actually liberals come from the anarchist left quadrant on the political compass and anarchy is in that quadrant well it is a possibility they do it’s a very small possibility and there’s something farther right then a facist a monarchist

Oh. Thx!

And something i just discovered thismorning communists liberals and ancaps all hate capitalism ( for different reasons ) but we could team up and take it down

Oh

Yes, this does confuse me, but it does make more sense if there is a devil who wants us to believe anything but Christianity.
And yes, i have known liberal Christians, but many of them also confuse me because they seem to have contradicting thoughts when it comes to religion and politics.

Ikr

Comment deleted, do not use that sort of language or bring drama into the think tank. Read stream rules.

I'm not legally allowed to explain the reason here. I would get banned.
Muslims routinely call for the destruction of Israel, deny the holocaust & execute people for being the 'wrong' religion, sexuality or heritage.
Christians get [pooped] on for quoting the bible if it doesn't line up perfectly with the daily DNC talking points.
What's the difference?
Example: Iihan Omar has been caught repeatedly denigrating the nation of Israel, denying 9-11 and going after non-muslims. She's praised by the extreme left.
Marjorie Taylor Greene got caught quoting equally stupid but no nearly as hateful 9-11 conspiracy theories and both the left and right went after her. She lost all her committees in the house and was condemned by the left, moderates and the right.
What's the difference between these two women (besides the fact that one is a right wing Christian & one is a left wing Muslim...)

i hate that lihan gurl man she's such an asshole also lots of Somali Muslims hate her which makes sense

But despite her attacks on Israel she's a media darling....

No not all Muslims hate Israel and execute people muslim extremists do

And not all Christians are haters, either. But if you tune into the liberal media they praise muslims in Iran, Syria, Saudi Arabia & Somalia who literally still chop your head off if you're the 'wrong' sexuality or religion. Meanwhile the same liberals denigrate Christians for quoting the bible.
So why the double standard...

]NOT ALL, THERE NOT TRUE MUSLIMS they claim but don't even pray

killing ppl for no reason is bad for all religions even if their gay or something else * I think* the media likes nice and real Muslims not fakes

Interesting opinion.
But unfortunately off topic. The question isn't whether 'real' Muslims are anti gay or anti semitic.
The question is why the liberal media give the muslims that ARE anti gay & anti Jew & call for the destruction of Israel a free pass.

Because the left don't hate Christians. But, I also wonder why Christianity tends to get dumped on a lot more. The original goal was to defend the Muslims who are murdered or receive prejudices because of things that a group of Muslims that consists of under 0.1% did. Then, it kind of went a bit crazy from there. I know there are plenty of Muslims who are OK with LGBTQ, and plenty of Muslims who believe in full gender equality. Despite this, don't ignore the fact that in places like Pakistan, a decent number somewhat approve of extremism, even if not on the scale that ISIS does

Well, I often get a lot of flack from leftists simply for believing in Christianity altogether.
Yes, that’s the odd thing with them. What starts out as a good intention just becomes crazy nonsense. Yes, some Muslims are okay with it, but afaik the Karan isn’t, just like the Bible. And to be honest, the Karan is far harsher than the Bible.
I actually believe all beings are equal. I believe in authority, i.e., presidents, parent-child relationships, marriage relationships, etc., but i am a full on advocate of treating everyone equally, because everyone is a human being. I don’t support LGBTQ+ at all, but they are humans too. And I don’t believe women should be in the house all the time unless they want to. I don’t believe in locking anyone into actions based on who they are, because that is nowhere in the Bible. It was imposed by humans and then attributed to the Bible, which brings me to another reason to believe there’s a devil. If you can create a straw man lie about religion and then get people to be offended by it, then you can get people offended by that religion.
In other words, we live in a complicated world.

I think the problem is that the real things Muslims believe are based entirely on what they choose to interpret. You get the extremists, like ISIS and Al Qaeda, you got conservative/orthodox Muslims, and you got liberal Muslims. As you might have guessed these groups aren't equally distributed. In the US, you got Muslims somewhere between Orthodox and Liberal, but practically no extremists. However, in a lot of Middle Eastern countries, you get primarily Muslims between Extremist and Orthodox. The problem is that in the US, you get people thinking the Muslims there are like the ones in the Middle East

I don’t hate all Christians and I don’t hate all Muslims. Practice your religion in peace, respect me living the way I want and we are cool.

But there are extremists of either sect who seek to enshrine their bigoted beliefs into law and impose their lifestyle on others at the barrel of a gun.

Those are the ones I’m not cool with: and frankly because we are a Christian nation, the risk of us turning into a Christian theocracy are several orders of magnitude higher than us being subjected to Sharia Law.

u have a point PRACTICE UR RELIGION IN PEACE period-

I'm not very knowledgeable of Leftists and Liberals. (I'm only 15 and I'm literally just about to start learning more in-depth about politics and all that) But from my extensive research, seeing that Leftists are, in my perspective, activists who seek out equal rights and anything related. I'm a Christian and I'm still growing and learning the world so please, consider the fact I don't know as much as y'all normally would but what I do know is that Christians are supposed to be loving and accepting of everyone, even if they have different beliefs which doing research, confuses me as to why Leftists don't, quote on the quote, 'like' Christians. My family and everyone I know that's Christian is rather accepting of me and everyone that is different like lgbt, different religion, different lifestyle, etc. Hence, the motto I grew up with: You don't have to support/agree with something to respect it (my words tend to be confusing when typing so for example, I don't agree with LGBTQ but I respect someone's decision for being a part of it); The idealism of Christianity is probably the very thing Leftists are prolly looking for. Now, for the Muslim part of the question, I have 0 ideas. I've never really looked into Muslim culture nor religion so I'm not gonna say anything about it to avoid errors and offense.

I will say this. Leftists are not far from communists, and communism is very hostile to God. So many leftists these days are pro-Marx, and we should all be required to read Marx so we can know what he stood for. This was a guy who said he knew he was going to hell in a poem once.
I understand where you are; it wasn't too long ago when i was there myself. I agree with you that we should be loving and accepting of everyone; I held that standard from the beginning and have never wavered (though some will argue against that purely based on the fact that I don't agree with LGBTQ+). With that said, the place where the world is is very sad right now.
I don't know everything about Muslims either, but I've seen some Muslims be far more hostile to LGBTQ+ than I've ever seen from a Christian, but leftists will never point these instances out. It seems like they want to villainize Christians. They seem to victimize Muslims, though. I've seen articles that degrade Christians like the left does with white people and males. It's the only religion they do this with.

and i at the left and i don't like communism i just like capitalism better

i had so many typo i dont even know where to start

*am on

every system can be run well if the people at the top are great

my friend is muslim and gay also prays her mom is a praying Muslim and its okie with that XD

both sides get generalized a lot. There's members of both sides that are okay with the lgbtq+ community, but there's also members of both sides that aren't. It's not "this religion good, this religion bad." Honestly, tho, when confronted about being against the queer community both sides just point fingers at the other just like you're doing here.

Personally, I've experienced more anti-lgbtq from Christians than Muslims (on imgflip and day-to-day life), but that's mostly because I'm around more Christians.

Maybe instead of just saying "what about them?", both sides should work on being more accepting.

It's true that both sides get generalized a lot, but I do have to point out that the Quran does call for the killing of 'Infidels', meaning non-muslims, other races, and gays. Meanwhile, the bible says to love everyone, and it states that Christ fulfilled the law of Moses when he died, so old testament commands to kill people who sin, including LGBT people, should no longer be done.

Basically every religious text has parts that can be interpreted in different ways. You can, quite literally, quote some obscure line from the bible, Quran, Torah, etc., to support your argument, no matter what it is

But have christians committed terror attacks in the name of their religion?

The reason that has not happened as much is because Christian countries are more wealthy and economically stable than others. If the US were in as much turmoil as the middle east, you would get extremist groups there as well. Acts of Christian terrorism represent Christianity just as much as Islamic terrorist groups represent Islam (Not at all). I always see that card being pulled, but you never stop to consider why they pop up. The middle east is in turmoil. That always leads to extremists and terrorists. They simply claim to be whatever is the main religion of the area they operate in. If they were in India, they would claim to be Buddhist and Hindu. If they were in Russia, they would be Orthodox Christian, and if they were in America, they would be Christian. Religion is just a neat cover story that means nothing in terrorism

But many terrorists cite the Quran to justify their actions

Many terrorists cite the bible to justify their actions

Who?

'The Army of God'

Thanks. I've never heard of them before

Idk, you do have a point, I think lefts like muslims because they're a minority group and suffer far more discrimination than christians

? (also left≠liberal)

Ik that. That was why i didn’t say liberal.

You have a kinda good point. However I've met plenty of nice muslims who aren't Anti-LGBT or believe in gender equality and there are definitely many moderate muslims (At least in America, In certain other places not so much) , The left doesn't hate christianity and you can really interpret your religion the way you want.

I know, there are a variety of Muslims. But you can’t talk about even a group of specific Muslims a certain way or you’ll be labeled as “racist” (how is one racist against a religion anyway?)
Well, many leftists believe you should be free to express your desires, but then get offended if you are conservative and mega-offended if you’re Christian. So the idea of freedom of speech is really confusing to me right now.

"I know, there are a variety of Muslims. But you can’t talk about even a group of specific Muslims a certain way or you’ll be labeled as “racist” (how is one racist against a religion anyway?)" I'd agree.
"Well, many leftists believe you should be free to express your desires, but then get offended if you are conservative and mega-offended if you’re Christian. So the idea of freedom of speech is really confusing to me right now." I've never seen that happen, usually rightists tend to be more offended than leftists.
