Islamophobia

Islamophobia is a very serious issue that is only getting worse in the Western world. Islamophobia is the hatred and discrimination of people who belong to the Islamic faith. This is an article to debunk misconceptions and say certain things about the consequences of such.

Myths and Truths

 * 1) Myth 1: All Muslims are terrorists.
 * 2) Truth 1: Obviously this is incorrect. It is also a bit insensitive as most terrorist attacks by radical Muslims (who make up way less than 0.01% of Muslims BTW) have killed more Muslims than anyone else.


 * 1) Myth 2: Muslims oppress women.
 * 2) Truth 2: The countries which oppress women are dictatorships so they do not represent the people. If the people did have a say, it most certainly would not be tolerated. The Quran also states nothing about women being inferior to men so you cannot use that to claim so either.


 * 1) Myth 3: Muslims should kill all infidels.
 * 2) Truth 3: The Quran actually says otherwise. It actually discourages killing people simply for not being Muslims as Islam is a religion of peace.

Consequences
To those who are ignorant and claim all Muslims are terrorists because of what's happening in Europe, I think it's your fault. If you treat them like terrorists, why shouldn't they be? Obviously, it's not the right way to go about this but you are only creating this stereotype yourself which makes you indirectly a force for terrorism.
