Representative ?

There's a lot of truth in the image above. Too many christians are quick to distance themselves from the nuttiest people claiming to be members of their religion. They claim those people are not representative of the religion, but are misusing it for their own sad purposes. But those same christians are just as quick to claim that the nuttiest zealots that call themselves muslims are indeed representative of that entire religion. Isn't that more than a bit hypocritical? Can you not extend the same courtesy to other religions that you claim for your own?
