Factually not even remotely true. The Paris attack killed many Muslims. The attack in Ankara killed almost all Muslims. The attack in Beirut killed a mix, mostly Muslim. The mayhem in Iraq and Syria is laying waste almost exclusively to Shi’a Muslims, and a few Christians and some Yazidis. Even some Sunni.
Some Christians are even being allowed to live, provided they pay a special tax. The VAST majority of people killed and targeted by D’aesh are Muslims. The same is NOT true of all others who practice a version of Islam that D’aesh rejects. It thus labels those people as apostate – people who reject Islam, and for apostates, punishment is harsher than pretty much anything else, requiring death.

And the point of the news stories was that Belgian officials had asked that people not aid the terrorists by reporting on social media where the police were searching, so Belgians were flooding Twitter with cat pictures to drown out any such posts.

I’m not offended, but I do want to make a point. I know a few Christians who meet that definition as well – demons from hell. I also know many atheists who act far more Christian than some Christians I know. And, since 1999 I’ve worked for businesses run by Jews. I’ve thus known countless Jews who are decent “Christ-like” people. I’ve also had the occasion to know some Muslims I’d trust with my life (including as a soldier). I always cringe when I hear some version of, “Oh, he’s a good Christian man…,” the implication being that means something special and thus anything other than Christian is something less, somehow untrustworthy. It is an inherently bigoted statement, without even the person saying it realizing it. For me, the very last man I will trust is the one who forwards his claimed religion as a reason to trust him. I prefer people who don’t require God looking over their shoulder to do the right and ethical thing.
