  what cause/belief is ISIS committed to?

  Try this if you have an IPhone. Press and hold the home button. Then say with a clear voice to your phone:
  

  Search the web for ISIS wikipedia

  (hint: consider what "ISIS" is an acronym for)

  This means that he's not devout. ISIS kills Muslims and infidels for insulting the prophet. This means that they're very devout.

  Well, I think that was what I wrote...

  'Good' and 'bad' Muslims are highly subjective terms that muddy the waters.

  Okay, great. I was discussing Simons use of the term "good Muslim". If you don't think we can define it, I suggest you take it up with him.

  we're not discussing Christians, we're discussing Muslims.

  ???

  Because they westboro baptist church are an inconvenient example we should not talk about them? lol. Sorry, but I am looking for consistency in my beliefs so I will have to keep them in mind as an example of very devout christians who I don't think are good christians...

  LUHE: whom do you believe to be more devout? ISIS or Maajid Nawaz?

  Devout? As in "totally committed to a cause or belief"? ISIS for sure.

  Notice this is an "is"-claim: Who is more committed.

  Westboro Baptist Church are likely amongst the most devout Christians. I don't think that makes them good Christians, which is what we are discussing.

  (Bear in mind that Nawaz received death threats for putting an image of Muhammad on his FB page; ISIS carry out Sharia punishments.)

  Bear in mind I had bananas and a protein shake for lunch. Just something random to bear in mind.

  Simon: I believe ISIS are Muslim, of course!. I also believe that e.g. Maajid Nawaz is a Muslim.
  

  What I object to is the view that we should think ISIS is what it means exclusively to be a "Good Muslim" (or more specifically, that it means you should rape and butcher). I don't bear the burden of proof to establish that claim. If it turns out that none of us know what it means to be a "good Muslim" you will still not be correct.

  You've been given the opportunity to explain why you believe that is not the case, So far you have refused to even try

  Well I believe I have but here goes again:

  • 1) I believe Maajid Nawaz is a Muslim
  • 2) Maajid Nawaz does not rape and butcher, or believe anyone should
  • 3) I got no grounds to make the judgment Maajid Nawaz is not a "good Muslim" whereas ISIS is which is not begging the question. I don't know if anyone can.

  I would challenge you in return to first make it clear if you believe "good Muslim" is an "ought"-claim and then secondly, outline your argument for how that particular ought is derived.

  SBF: Don't forget the definition of a good Muslim on page 2:

  "to be a good Muslim you have to be a butcher and a rapist".

  Actually, if you start from that assumption/definition/idea I kind of get a lot of the points made on this thread.

  SBF: What, are you now accusing the fine publication of Breitbart of not being completely honest in it's reporting?

  I am sure if any mistake was made by this powerhouse of journalistic integrity it was completely unrelated to the Muslimness of Khan...

  Well, here we go, M103. Actually I don't understand why it is a slippery slope, and you have provided no reasons to believe the media is lying.

  FYI, it is a motion, not a law. It does not make criticism of Islam illegal because it can't... why do we need all this fearmongering?

  Well, that's what I wrote: According to you, Muslims should protest the terror attack in London because they terrorist was killed. but the attack in Canada does not need to be protected because the terrorist was captured.

  Your seeming insensitivity to the victims and their families may be illuminating.

  Why don't you just accuse me of beating puppies while you are in the business of random, unfounded accusations

  LUHE: So if Khalid Masood had been captured Muslims would not have to protest (similar to how the MAGAs don't have to protest the Quebec shooting) , but now that he was shot dead he somehow got off too lightly and therefore Muslims should?

  And the reason we are discussing protests at all is because he was advancing religious ends and not political, like the IRA did, nevermind the "state" bit in "Islamic State". To summarize this logic: What the IRA did was a political struggle motivated by religious differences and what Islamic state does is a religious struggle with a major political component. Notice the order.

  Man this is confusing. Someone should print a brochure.

  Ps.

  I am happy that you successfully googled a word you did not understand. You can actually google many things.

  LUHE: That's a pretty weak response. The Irish at least should have been demanded to make a protest...

  I'd have more respect for this view if MAGA people were out in force protesting the Quebec mosque shooting. It took forever for the Trump administration to even say a peep!

  In reality, I don't think many people feel they have much in common with terrorists and therefore don't care to go out on a protest.
