ISIS branches are salafi totalitarian sect, they are not muslims.
Thanks, but we'll just continue to consider them as the muslims they say they are.
You're welcome to go erase them then there won't be an issue as to what they are, but until then, Islam owns them.
Or perhaps you should educate yourself. Do know who is fighting ISIS on the ground? Hint: Its not secular westerners.
It is true, that ISIS is based around literal interpretation of some verses of Quran (while it ignores others), it is not true, that it represents muslims as whole. Otherwise, they wouldnt fight it, would they?
I have seen this video yesterday. These thieves burned the church after destroying everything inside it.
It's a big audacity to impose the "religion of peace" radicalism in a country where more than 90% of the population are christians.
Philipines must not accept this kind of practice that already became common in Europe.
Christians and Roman Catholics are the same.
Its part of the rituals of the extremist. You gotta see what they believed in because they justify all these by the writings of their scriptures. Its even written in the Christian bibles too that Idolatry is abomination. Creating images to liken it to God is abomination to Christians and to Muslims.
Did you ever read the bible or are you reffering to what communists believe is written in bible? Indeed, God himself is not shown in either scripture or churches as it would clash with basic idea, that he is omnipresent and omnipotent. However, images of his Son and other saints are common.
Destroying places of worship is abominable act in christianity, judaism and among moderate muslims.

If they are able to do that, then it tells us that something is wrong with the non-Muslim religions, right? Islamists are conducting attacks against non-Muslims even in countries where they are only around 5% of the population. Can you even imagine a similar attack against a mosque in a country, where 95% of the population is Muslim?
That is true. Perhaps, though, the problem here is not with muslims, who defend their places of worship, but with us, "secularized" people, who are unwilling to defend even the basic pillars that shape our culture. Just a couple of generations ago, direct attack on church building would be unthinkable. People, who hate christians see tolerance as a weakness.
