to Have to Think About It

 An
insightful young woman said something to me the other day that nails it on
the head. She said when she talks to people about Islam, they seem to be
trying to find a way of thinking about it that lets them not have to think
about it any more. Things like, "But it's just a small number of
extremists." Or, "We have the strongest military in the
world." Or, "I know a couple of Muslims, and they're some of the
nicest people I know.""People try to compartmentalize it," she said. "They try to brush it off so they can stop worrying about it." But she also pointed out something I've noticed too: It is getting harder to ignore. To help you deal with those kinds of responses from people, we have created the Answers to Objections series.  |
