When someone commits a horrible crime and they say they are a Christian we Christians don’t believe it. We immediately say he isn’t a Christian. Yet when someone commits a similar crime and claim they are a Muslim we immediately agree and claim that is how all Muslims act.
It is so easy to label the acts of someone unlike us to a whole group. The truth is regardless of a person’s religion or belief system there are those who share the same religion or belief system that will do bad things. Sometimes it goes directly against what the religion or belief system actually teaches and does not mean everyone in that group believes or acts the same.
Let us judge people by what they say and do and not on just way they say or do. It is time for us stop taking the bad actions of a few and contributing it to the whole.
