Religious affiliations don't matter until they do.

I encourage you to look at the fall of Yugoslavia.

I am actually quite aware of this.

The CIA pitted the Muslims against the Christians to destabilize the country until the violent civil war.

@mechoman444 as Abdul El-sayed said. "i'm running for senate and i happen to be Muslim"

as a response to asking if he would reject the muslim brotherhood.

the person asking the question stated they would not reject forcing christianity into government 🤷‍♂️ #rulesfortheeNotForMe #abdulelsayed #tommy #michigan

I think the point I'm trying to make is that I don't care what religion somebody is as long as they do their jobs.

As an atheist I believe completely that people should be able to believe and worship whoever they want within reason.

@mechoman444@lemme.world yes. totally agree. just sharing Abdul's response when questioned by a christian nationalist that wants to force their religion on everyone.

those afraid of a muslim or Hindi or satanist politician are only afraid because they think everyone thinks like them and would force their beliefs on others.

im sure there are plenty in all religions that would. but those people tend to be conservative politicians not progressive
