In an interview in the FayObserver posted yesterday, the president of CAIR, Larry Shaw, who is also a State Senator from North Carolina, was quoted as saying Christians were extremists:
"...You have extremists on the right," the seven-term senator said. "Christians, Ku Klux Klan, Nazis. All kinds of Islamic fanatics. All of them claim to speak for the majority, and that's unfortunate."Shaw has been chairman of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, or CAIR, since March. The 15-year-old advocacy group with about 15,000 members has been the target of critics, especially since the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks in the U.S.
Unless Shaw was misquoted here and the paper issues a correction, or I am reading this entirely wrong which I don't think I am, this senator owes a written apology to all Christians. He could have misspoken which requires a written clarification, as well.
There are no global movements seeking to create a fundamentalist Christianic state in countries throughout the world. Nor are there Christianic terrorists attackings others daily in the name of their religion.
But there are Islamist movements.
