I'm finding no objection to identifying myself as a Muslim.
There is an apocryphal story that contains a wonderful idea:
That night the underground transmitted a message to all Danes. 'From Amalienborg Palace, King Christian has given the following answer to the German command that Jews must wear a Star of David. The King has said that one Dane is exactly the same as the next Dane. He himself will wear the first Star of David and he expects that every loyal Dane will do the same.' The next day in Copenhagen, almost the entire population wore armbands showing a Star of David. The following day the Germans rescinded the order. http://www.snopes.com/history/govern/yellowstars.asp
What if millions of Americans who believe in peace, justice, and working to mitigate climate change registered as Muslim, if such a registry is set up? What better way to protect our Muslim brothers and sisters from persecution?
I'm a Muslim, too. Are you?
