The man is a hero. It doesn't change the fact that Islam as a religion sucks, but that has nothing to do with the fact that the muslim man is a hero. His religion has nothing to do with this.

But patterns don’t exist? A hero is a hero, a terrorist is a terrorist. If you are making this a topic based on religion, you are doing the very thing that you are criticizing

The hero wasn’t Muslim, he was a Lebanese Christian. Not everyone in the Middle East is Muslim despite the efforts of Islam to ethnically cleanse everyone else

Some of the comments in here are so wholesome. Religion is 100% a driver of both insanity and excuses. Who kills people all bc they believe their “God” has granted them such a right? To persecute, to enslave, to exploit… Religious people can be really wonderful, but they always use it as an excuse to justify bad behavior. The best people I’ve met in my life have been those who are either non-religious or question faith.

Insane that 16 people were just murdered in broad daylight for being Jewish and your focus is on predicting Islamophobia, shows just how deep dehumanization of Jews has gone in academia

The difference is that one is a hateful radicalized Muslim that wants to spread his disgusting doctrine while the other is a Muslim citizen of Australia that contributes to the democracy positively

Religions in general suck but alas it is people’s freedom to express their religion. We shouldn’t demonize any.

We absolutely should, though. Not necessarily most of the people, but the religious beliefs themselves absolutely are horrendous and do not belong. What happened has nothing to do with cult beliefs, though.

Every Abrahamic religion has pretty despicable beliefs We just live in a time where it’s so easy to demonize Islam over the others Imo they’re all pretty similar

Unfortunately the human brain MUST make some generalizations everyday. Even you don’t judge everyone as an individual. You assumed simply because of his name he is Muslim. How prejudiced, judging a religion by someone’s name. He’s actually a Christian from Lebanon. Nice try though

You’re saying that and I agree that they shouldn’t focus on one aspect, however, you assumed the hero in this case Muslim and you were wrong. I suggest you follow your own advice and do more research before you try to play the moral high ground as you did. That being said there is a trend of Muslims committing terror attacks on foreign soil that you cannot ignore and that is what people are concerned about.

why do you deny history? it’s not me that’s lying, i have no allegiance to any of these religions. but i think hypocrisy for the sake of racism and persecution should be condemned. christianity has taken more lives than any religion in history. we are seeing a televised genocide being carried out by jews in israel right now. islam also has blood on its hands but it is unfair to say that it is a problem unique to that religion.

I’m not denying history. You’re going back and forth and it’s confusing. You said “famously Christians have never done ethnic cleansing” and that is blatantly false.

I understand that. Point of making this was to show demonizing groups makes 0 sense. A Muslim man also saved the day so the rhetoric falls apart for the islamophobes. Because their bigotry shines through. If they’re ready to hate because of one man’s actions why can’t they praise because of one man’s actions as well
