Are you being serious? The Nazi party is based on doing horrible shit to minorities. That's the ideology, that's what the leadership believed and that's the reason why people joined them.

Are you being serious? Islam is based on doing horrible shit to infidels. That's the ideology, that's what the leadership believed and that's the reason why people were forced to join them.

You're a hypocrite.

In the 5th or 6th century. Christians were doing the same in the middle ages. Is that true of the Islam and Christianity people follow today? No.

Completely different when it's a modern ideology with people signing up today who want to see the extermination of minorities.

Yeah sure, it's hypocritical for men to support feminism because Ugg dragged his woman by the hair.

It appears you're trying to defend the indefensible.

All that is still there in the scriptures. Not many people are "doing horrible shit" to people in the name of those religions/ideologies today, sure (though do look at how the Islamic world treats apostates or women) - but nor are today's Nazis doing any extermination in practice. The idea that people in one movement whose core beliefs include support for genocide must really believe in it but people in another group whose core beliefs include support for genocide must be into it for other reasons seems rather dubious.

The difference is time.

What you are in effect saying is that Muslims, Christians and Jews, whose scriptures all support some incredibly discriminatory things, are just as bad as neo-Nazis.

Let's be realistic here. Muslims today are not Muslims because they want genocide. What reason does a neo-Nazi have for supporting Nazism if they don't support genocide and racial prejudice? It is the only reason why somebody would support Nazism other than, say, conquest to further commit genocide!

Xenophobia is not a defining characteristic of modern Islam. Xenophobia IS the defining characteristic of Nazism.

Just to avoid framing: Genocide is not part of core Christianity.
