South Park and Revolution Muslim

By Hussein Rashid

Why is CNN giving a platform to two guys who don’t understand Islam to speak for all Muslims?

@markdtooley Excluding religious *people* isn't inclusive. Asking that people who represent the entire nation avoid using sectarian rhetoric isn't the same thing. There is no equivalency between excluding millions with sectarian rhetoric and asking people to not use that rhetoric.

Yes, the religious messages at the inauguration were generally open-hearted, ecumenical and just... better. But they were still exclusionary according to @AndrewLSeidel https://t.co/IUHwiJu2iQ

Not to rain on the parade, but the ideal isn't for our government to embrace *better* religion, it's for our government to *not use* sectarian religious language, which is by definition exclusionary.
