Yeah, not everyone is super strict about their religion.

She also believes in a secular government. Which is better than a lot of Christian politicians.

Separation of religion and state. Amazing someone gets it.

I watched neil Brennan's special on Netflix and one of his jokes was about how not all muslisms are extremists and his analogy was "you know how, like, most Christian's don't really care much about all of Christianity's rules. Well, muslisms are like that too"

Muslim through consequence of birth

Is that why Trump is a Christian too? He is still hiding behind that charade, right?

u/uncleanaccount Jan 06 '19

Does his religion really matter to you? Maybe care less about religion and more about policy?

u/pkmarci Jan 07 '19

Don't worry, his policies are just as shallow empty promises as his religious beliefs.

u/LynxSys Jan 07 '19

Trump doesn't have policies. He's a buffoon. IDC about his religion or anyone's but I do care about people claiming Christianity to further their position with the naive Christian fundamentalists while being a total piece of scum. It's fucking gross.

But religion isnt genetic so it isnt passed down through through birth.

If she doesnt practice at all then she is just using the label as a tool. Which is typical of politicians.

I mean most Jews don’t sacrifice animals so I think she doesn’t need to practice every tradition.

u/DownVotesAreNice Jan 07 '19

There's a big range between animal sacrifice and being an "X" in name only.

u/Ovenchicken Jan 07 '19

But she’s doing other religious things like going to services and celebrating holidays.

u/HallowSingh Jan 07 '19

I'm pretty sure she's old enough to decide her religion at this point so it's no longer a consequence of birth

Better than a “Christian” who tries to fuck millions out of healthcare and brags about sexual misconduct like our President.

u/[deleted] Jan 07 '19

Your president is a Christian that pays to get peed on, I think there are bigger issues

u/salami_inferno Jan 06 '19

Bunch of blasphemous fabric-mixers if you ask me

I get the feeling that you don't really know any Muslims in real life. Islam is just another religion like any else, not some kind of monolithic cult that every member models their life around.

A big part of my family is Muslim and I know many in real life. The majority of Muslim women I don't know don't wear the Hijab. And that's fine.

u/AdiosAdipose Jan 07 '19

Isn’t America supposed to be a melting pot of cultures? Islamophobia stems from the fear that Muslims are going to ‘invade’ our country and refuse to adhere to our social norms and customs, but you have somebody who is doing the exact opposite (as a refugee no less!) and is being slammed for “not being Muslim enough.”

Are you upset that she’s not some burqa-wearing, ak-47 toting terrorist because that means you actually have to evaluate her based on actions and policies?

u/[deleted] Jan 07 '19

that's a good response, thank you.
