Tavis Smiley reveals he’s an imbecile

Posted on by

Jejune is too kind. He’s a moron.

Mr Smiley, possessor of a show (unsurprisingly) on PBS, said this, the past week, of Christianity vs Islam whilst speaking with Ayaan Hirsi Ali. (Somali-born Dutch-American activist, feminist, author, and former Dutch politician. She actively opposes honor violence, child marriage and female genital mutilation.)

“Oh, Christians, every day, people walk into post offices, they walk into schools, that’s what Columbine is – I could do this all day long. There are so many more examples of Christians – and I happen to be a Christian. That’s back to this notion of your idealizing Christianity in my mind, to my read. There are so many more examples, Ayaan, of Christians who do that than you could ever give me examples of Muslims who have done that inside this country, where you live and work.”

The video is below.

  • Name for me, please, Mr Smiley, one Christian person in the US who walked into a post office and blew themselves up.
  • Name for me, please, Mr Smiley, one Christian person in the US who walked into a school and blew themselves up.
  • Name for me, please, Mr Smiley, one Christian person anywhere in the US who blew themselves up. Just one. Please.

You mentioned Columbine. Neither Eric Harris nor Dylan Klebold, who killed 13 and injured 21, indicated that they both killed in the name of Christianity. The opposite is in fact true.

They were anti-Christian, and clearly expressed that. They asked one Christ-follower, just before they murdered her, “Do you believe in God?” Upon her ‘Yes’ answer, they said “Why?” and then shot her.

Actually, given that Columbine murderers Harris and Klebold were into the ‘Goth’ culture, I cannot help wondering whether they at least flirted with the opposite (e.g. the occultic or satanic).

Give me even one US incident, Tavis Smiley, of any individual or series of individuals blowing themselves up, committing suicide, in the name of Christianity. One. Give one example. Provide verifiable evidence.

There are zero in the past 100 years.

Yes, since 1977 there have been 8 US murders targeting abortion centers in what most would say is in the name of Christianity — but even then not all were professed Christians. People mention Eric Rudolph and Scott Roeder. Heinous. But the total is still 8. They are pikers compared to, say, Major Nidal Hasan who, in 2009 killed 13 people and injured 30 specifically in the name of Islam. In one event. In the name of Islam. “Allahu Akhbar” is called a clue.

Because people were afraid of being labeled as Islamophobic, Major Hasan’s Islamic violent rhetoric was purposely overlooked. Because of fear. List for me even one example of people failing to report individuals because of fear of Christianity. One. Just one. Due to “Christianophobia.”

Let’s go to the facts.

  • Americans killed in the name of Islam on 9-11-2001: 2,996.
  • Muslims in America killed in revenge: 1.
  • Since 9/11, an additional 150 Americans have been killed in 52 separate acts of deadly Islamic terror or Islam-related honor killing in the United States.

Something tells me that Muslims may be just a bit more touchy and violent than Christians in the US. Something tells me the score is akin to 3,146 vs 8.

Thanks for the lies, Tavis Smiley.

You may now go back to your sycophantic NPR adherents who enjoy your Emo views.

  1. You are right he is an idiot. One has to think he is equating suicide bombers with mass shooters. If he is doing that, I would reckon he is right about the number but not, as you rightly state, the cause. The subject seemed to be the number of deaths in the name of a religion (or to be more accurate the perpetrators take on their religion).

    One minor corrtion on your statistics BZ, the 2,996 statistic – not all of them were American. The one person I knew who died was not American, just happened to be working in the twin towers.

  2. Idiot here says that christians blow people up and commit acts of terrorism every day, and that he can go on all day long listing the horrific acts committed by them. Well, I will take you at your word sir…and ask you to go ahead and list these acts. Go ahead, we are all listening. Tell you what….I will list one act of terrorism by muslims, and you in turn list one committed by christians. Tell you what, I will go first….

    Here is what I found in less than one minute of searching….

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

    …..your turn.

    Now…do you want to count each act of terrorism as one, or are we comparing the number of innocents murdered by non-christians.

    Let me know when you can list enough to equal just ONE PERCENT of the number dead.

    Should be easy, after all, christians do this everyday and you can go on all day long….your words.

    …we’re waiting.

  3. Fourteen died at Ft Hood, Francheska Velez was pregnant when she died.

    Regarding Smiley’s alleged Christianity, he was raised in a religious home. Many people claim a faith based on osmosis. Of these people God said, “Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.”
    (Matthew 7:21, 23)

    Like these people, Tavis Smilely has sought to pigeon hole God into his own making. By his words and deeds does Smiley seek to make God a liar. Smiley is a fraud and in the worst way. I’m not judging him but by God’s own testimony.
