Islam isn't the Problem
In response to the continuing pedophilia epidemic which has rocked the Catholic Church around the world for decades, let us imagine that there was a high-profile former prime minister of a prominent country who went on-the-record to state that this pedophilia epidemic somehow shows the world that there was an inherent “problem within Christianity.”
How do you think that most Christians around the world would react to this kind of blanket statement about their religion?
I think it would be pretty fair to say that over 99.9 percent of the world’s Christian community would be quite offended that a former prime minister of a major world power would have the audacity to blame their entire religion for the acts of a minuscule minority of people who may happen to share that same faith.
But this is exactly what happened recently with former British Prime Minister Tony Blair and statements that he made about the religion of Islam.
According to The Washington Post, it was reported that former British prime minister Tony Blair recently wrote in the UK’s Daily Mail newspaper about what he said was “a problem within Islam” that must be faced in the aftermath of the gruesome public slaying in London of a British soldier named Lee Rigby by men reportedly claimed to be “avenging” the deaths of Muslims.
