Would a KKK member who openly identified as one, even on the job, be allowed to keep it?
Uh... what?
Would sending drones from a country 7,000 miles away to silently drop bombs on your head be more "culturally compatible"?
They are a small percentage of the American population, but this is what their religious celebrations look like
According to this logic, by being a conservative american protestant, you culturally associate with westboro baptist church. Also, by being a strong believing hindu, you obviously culturally associate yourself with the massacre of muslims, and vice versa.
This doesn't make sense.
Hindus dont have religious literature (and Hindu countries dont have laws) against other religious. Muslims do, Muslim countries do. I dont know anything about Christianity though, but yes, I guess you do culturally associate with all churches if you are openly Christian and wear a cross at work,etc.
But hindus have the same culture. Going by your logic, every hindu culturally associate with the other hindus.
> but yes, I guess you do culturally associate with all churches if you are openly Christian and wear a cross at work,etc.
Then let me give you a more extreme implication of this logic:
By calling ourself openly human beings, we culturally associate with every other evil man since they are also human beings. Therefore, we are no better than the most evil man on earth.
There is no text which codifies it, unlike Islam. So Hindu culture is much more fluid than Muslim which is written on paper
>By calling ourself openly human beings, we culturally associate with every other evil man since they are also human beings. Therefore, we are no better than the most evil man on earth.
Unlike religion, its not voluntary.
I would say a better analogy would be a white man associating himself with black gang culture by getting gold teeth, gold chains, tattoos,etc to a job. Which would probably get him rejected from the interview itself
Each sect has a different Quran, different Sharia, different precepts. There are massive differences in the way Islam is practiced across the world.
> Unlike religion, its not voluntary.
Imagine then someone who openly claims to be an artist and that creating art is a part of them. Would you say this person culturally associate with a murderer who kills "for art"? Both call themselves and associate with the artistic work.
> I would say a better analogy would be a white man associating himself with black gang culture by getting gold teeth, gold chains, tattoos,etc to a job.
I don't think that it is a good analogy, as that white man associate concretely to black gang culture.
A better analogy would be, a man who associate with black culture in general but gets rejected because his employer consider him to associate with black gang culture although he claims he doesn't.
Uhhhh no. The koran is the koran is the koran. Written in Arabic, not a single letter to be changed because it is 'perfect' according to itself [1]:
And the word of your Lord has been fulfilled in truth and in justice.
None can alter His words, and He is the Hearing, the Knowing.

Why do I get the feeling that you just read an article about "creeping Sharia in America"?
> a lot of terrorist attacks are after all funded by Muslim countries
Citation, please.

Are you implying that a regular Muslim is equivalent to a KKK member? Have you ever even spoken to a Muslim?

A cursory google on the subject highlights that this is in fact the case and something governments around the world do not want to admit.
So, give them weapons with one hand, and prosecute citizens for some vague connection with the other hand!
No, I live in India and have seen the stuff they can do when they become a majority (and dont forget they did try imposing SHaria in UK a while ago) https://www.theguardian.com/law/2017/mar/01/inside-britains-... . I say tried because, as the article mentions, their rulings have no legal standing. It is still however a parallel legal system they choose to adhere to.
>Citation, please.
They do inevitably turn out to be Muslim most of the time, though I admit its anecdotal and I have not collated data
>Are you implying that a regular Muslim is equivalent to a KKK member? Have you ever even spoken to a Muslim?
Muslims are below 5% of the American population... which is why they are not vocal. Talk to a Muslim from Saudi\UAE\Pakistan to know how Muslims actually are. Talk to them about something a bit uncomfortable, like maybe religious freedom, alcohol or womens liberty.. and see how fast they shut down.
So you think 50% hindu of any country will say, that freedom of religion should be punishable by death? Because that's, apparently, what >50% Pakistani muslims say ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apostasy_in_Islam#Apostasy_in_... )
