To Moderate Muslim: seeing the mote and missing the beam

Moderate Muslim, some of them don't like "darkskinned" and "foreign" people but remember those feelings are what the West is willing to condemn and fight against and in which they have largely succeeded (which is why you are a Westerner now!).

But are you willing to fight against the prejudice Allah has against "unbelievers", people who do not believe in him or who practice "shirk"? Allah considers them unclean and they will be tortured in hell forever merely because Allah himself let them be born to infidel parents just as I was born into a "darkskinned" and "foreign" family.

As Jesus, your prophet taught, "And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Matt 7:2
