Brian, you are fully entitled to your opinion and that Muslim religious leaders should speak out louder and more vociferously (very appropriate given the thread started out on Trump' s accusations!). I was seeking to address your observation on "the general silence after each barbaric act is deafening" which for reasons stated I did not believe to be the case. Many religions generally given their leadership structures (or lack of them) do seem to struggle with addressing inappropriate actions by certain members of their faith (the Catholic Church over paedophile priests; recent attacks against non-Jewish religions in Israel; the growing racism shown by some leading Buddhist monks in Myanmar). |
