You know, I don't remember any time a Muslim told [i]me[/i] that I had to stay away from alcohol or bacon.

Or screech at me about how I'm going to hell, for that matter 🤔

@QuixoticSoul try living in the middle east

@AngelofFail Is this a picture about living in the middle east?

Czarcasm

@QuixoticSoul It's a close enough portrayal.

QuixoticSoul · 41-45, M

@Czarcasm I've known and worked with a lot of Muslims in my life. This doesn't reflect my experience of Muslims in the West.

AngelofFail · 26-30, F

@QuixoticSoul personal experience gives you an extremely biased view

QuixoticSoul · 41-45, M

@AngelofFail Actual evidence doesn't paint your picture either.

Czarcasm

@QuixoticSoul I know. Because they're a minority, adopt to an Islamic version of second hand translations and of course the laws are different.

@QuixoticSoul actual laws in islamic countries are a fact... if you defend islam you defend the execution of gay people, the stoning for adultery etc etc...

@AngelofFail Why the hell would you want to live there?

Czarcasm

@QuixoticSoul Do you know any ex Muslims? Ask them how they are treated by the Muslims in the west.

QuixoticSoul · 41-45, M

@Czarcasm Yes, and they're fine. Because they're civilized educated people associating with other civilized educated people.

Czarcasm

@QuixoticSoul Funny, that's not at all how I am always treated. Many Muslims do bother me for leaving Islam. Some even made public threats.
