Ameriphobia

Americans are constantly being told to tolerate people from different cultures. The term Islamophobia is used to stigmatize and "guilt" Americans into believing that their fears about terrorism are a latent hatred of Islamic believers. Many conservative Americans are thought to be bigoted and irrational when it comes to their attitudes about race and religion. Conservatives are thought to be prejudiced against people of other religions because their cause is that of Christ rather than Allah.Yet, many Americans have a deep suspicion of Muslims. Are such fears rational or bigoted? This is a clearly important question. How do we define rational thinking when it is known that Islam has among its members some people openly desirous of destroying America and its values?
