Criticizing very old and established Xian mainstream religions is considered "unusually venomous." But attacking "Fundamentalist assholes" is perfectly OK.

Also, attacking the Sunni Islam of Fundamentalist assholes like ISIS is fine. But don't criticize the Sunni Islam followed by a propagandist at CAIR or similar people, they're Good Liberals just like us. That one could keep us busy, since Sunni Islam has at least 32 different theological schools I'm aware of.

Sufis are also Good Muslims because they're mystics. Unless they later mutate into Fundamentalist Assholes, like the former Sufi poet and scholar Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini did.

OK, I think I've cleared that right up...
