48. It's a Generalization That Denegrates all those who practice Islam

Edited on Tue Sep-16-08 09:22 PM by fascisthunter

For example, by calling it "Christian Terror", one would be denegrating a whole religion, not just extremists within that religion. Kinda the same as saying "white terror", or "Irish Terror", or "enter ethnic, religious, race here".... by not being specific, you confuse a whole group with a negative connotation. And it works on ignorant people who do not anyone belonging to this group of people.

Oooops, and you chose to call it Islam Terror....? That wasn't it's title?
