The culture also plays a factor to be fair, which is why people coming to the US should assimilate at least to an extent.

yes, integration is key

Muslims should be deported

and they do get assimilated. not opinion, based on fact.

I'm not saying we shouldn't limit immigration, but to argue that we should get rid of what we have is reprehensible

look at sweden

Then quasi argued we don't need Muslim physicians when i know that we do.

we don't need specifically Muslim physicians

a physician can be non barbarian and be just as good

Right, nobodies saying bring in only Muslim physicians though

I totally endorse integration

Just don't bar Muslims specifically because they're Muslim.

The Muslims I have interacted with are intrgrating/have integrated

Hell, I've sipped wine with Muslim friends 🥂

so qwasi, you would prefer a shortage of physicians over physicians with a different set of beliefs?

this is why anecdotal evidence is useless though

your experience with a handful of people is meaningless

i posted a study showing that integration is happening

and they do get assimilated

lol

You're the one using inflammatory language like "barbarian"

ok how was the study performed

https://dash.harvard.edu/bitstream/handle/1/4481625/Norris_MuslimIntegration.pdf?sequence=1

here you go

once again

did they ask "hey, you cool with not chopping hands off anymore bruh?"

and the Muslim answers, "Sure, bruh, no more chopping"

also, I'm not saying the study isn't accurate, but I trust Harvard on this particular topic about as much as I trust Yuri's anecdotal evidence

that is to say, not a whole lot

To be a Muslim, you technically must do/believe only five things. None of them relate to Sharia. Muslims can integrate and still be Muslims. And many do.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five_Pillars_of_Islam

Just as Christians and even Jews can take an historical view on certain elemets of Leviticus

So again, in my experience, the concern is fanaticism not any particular religion per se. And yes, I believe we should be selective in who we permit into the country and one of the "rule out criteria" should be to keep out zealots of all flavors. But that's just moderate little scientific me.

that study took their evidence from a multitude of different sources though. here's one: http://www.worldvaluessurvey.org/WVSDocumentationWV4.jsp this shows that societies with different majority religions do have distincitve and different values, but within the same society, the difference between the different religions are proven to be relatively much smaller.

i provided that source as you can read through the sampling and methodology yourself if you don't believe it.

I guess all you're really saying is that some Muslims can be good people

sure, ok

just like some Nazis were probably good people
