It is unfair to label me anti-Islam. I am an atheist and a secular humanist.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'm not anti-Muslim; I'm not anti-immigration.
The word 'Islam' means 'peace.' The word 'Muslim' means 'one who surrenders to God.' But the press makes us seem like haters.
Reject racial or religious hate. Embrace moderate Islam.
The enemy is not Islam, the great world faith, but a perversion of Islam.
I have a deep and personal aversion to anti-Semitism regardless of its source, and I reject and condemn the anti-Semitic statements and actions of the Nation of Islam, Louis Farrakhan, and Khalid Muhammed.
I was a Muslim once, remember, and it was when I was most devout that I was most full of hate.
I consider it part of my responsibility as President of the United States to fight against negative stereotypes of Islam wherever they appear.
There is a group of individuals who are radical jihadists. We need to call them by name. They believe it is OK to kill people in the name of their religion. It is not all of Islam. It is not all Muslims. But there is a subgroup who believe it is OK. In fact, it is their plan and design to kill people.
I am against the word 'anti' because it's a little bit like 'atheist,' as compared to 'believer.' And an atheist is just as much of a religious man as the believer is.
I never was in the Nation of Islam... I mean, what I call myself is a natural Muslim, 'cause it's just me and God.
