Why is it that you can be critical of christianity until your dying breath, but [Spirituality & Religion]

Give the same criticism of Islam and you're bombarded by atheists who haven't bothered to read the Qur'an yelling "but christianity! Every part of the bible supports the KKK and they all want to kill gays!".

Can you be a little more specific. What exactly, which parts of Christianity, have you been criticizing, until your dying breath, and no one said anything, and which parts of Islam were you criticizing, when you got bombarded by Atheists?

Christianity: Just anything I seem to think is illogical for moral and scientific reasons. So, the ark story, original sin etc And when it comes to islam, i don't even have to criticize a single point of it, rather merely suggest that we scrutinize it as we'd scrutinize christianity, and the name calling starts

@pianoplayingsteve: you do realize that Islam also believes in Noah's Arc, and all the funedemental principles of Christianity, right?

So then, can you be a little more specific?

@Northwest: It has the Noah's Ark story, yes. But not the fundamental principle of Christianity. I've been specific, I criticize the scientific ramifications of old testament stories, such as Noah's Ark and the Garden of Eden, and the moral implications of original sin. And at the same time, I'd criticize whatever anti science claims I'd find in the Qur'an, such as Muhammed splitting the moon in two, and the moral implications of things such as death for apostacy. Point being, I scrutinize both of the religions, but it seems you can only disagree with christianity or you'll be a "way-cist islamophobe! :'("
