In response to Alex - full post here
I really like this meme and I've been laughing for quite sometime while looking at this website. I've always found it in bad taste, and rightly so, I think, to make sweeping generalizations about one group based off of a select few individuals. I've thought of comparing it to saying that all Christians picket soldier's funerals because the Westboro Baptist Church does. Or you could say that all Christian women have to wear black and cover their heads because Catholic nuns do.
Having more knowledge about the prophet Muhammad has helped me to strengthen the idea that Muslims are individuals too; they are different from each other. I mean, the knowledge from the book has done little in the way of changing my view of Muslims, it has however, given me more tools that I can to defend the religion against those who unfairly attribute to the many the characteristics and mindsets of the few
