What is a "closet Muslim" going to do anyways? Are people afraid that

[hedgehog]

someone will come put of the closet and fast for Ramadan or come out of the closet and prayer toward Mecca 5 times a day or what? It's not very PC to say it this way, but if every Muslim in the world is out to kill us, they're pretty damned inefficient! So what are all these people so afraid of?

1. their own ignorance

I lead the Dances of Universal Peace and have had people walk away in fear when I say "Allah", which is merely Arabic for God. I really feel sorry for them, because they know nothing of Islam or of Muslims in general.

2. Ignorant people are so stunning in their beliefs sometimes:

PALERMO, N.Y. (AP) - A Sikh holy man and spiritual leader from India was in upstate New York on Saturday for the rededication of the Gobind Sadan USA temple.

The Oswego County temple was burned to the ground in 2001 by four teens who believed it was called "Go-Bin-Laden."

4. It's like they think there will be some Scooby-Doo moment when Obama removes his mask...

....and will forcibly convert everyone to Islam or some shit.

Silliest fucking shit ever, if you ask me.

5. If he's in cahoots with the sinister stuffed animal I had...

...that I swear, told me one evening before I went to bed, 'tonight, while you're sleeping, I'm going to strangle you dead.'...course, I was only eight years old, but really, a closet Muslim is nothing compared to what you can pick up at Walmart.

8. Funny story - we called for a cab to the airport form a hotel, then went out front to wait.

A cab pulled up, and we started to load our luggage when a second cab pulled up and the driver of that cab claimed that he was the person called and the first guy always stole his fares! The two drivers were from different minority groups and I was sure that whichever driver we picked, the other guy would be convinced it was because we were prejudiced against his group.

10. Christian projectionism

The Christians, or the people who call themselves Christians, constantly try to abolish the 1st amendment, forcing their 'religion' on everyone. They believe all religions are exactly like them, making free religion a simple matter of majority-rule.

Of course, nothing could be further from the truth. Only Christians attempt to abolish the 1st amendment.

In general, too many Americans believe freedom means majority-rule. The strongest ape gets to do whatever it wants... these Americans are morons, but they do vote.

12. Well, there you have it: crisis comes, he's running off to pray 5 times a day.

Won't catch a Christian doing that, no sir!

13. I think all religions should be in the closet

People need to keep their personal business personal, not use it as a banner.
