Message Co-opted by Liberals
Whenever diversity is a topic, leftists are likely to be involved. The original work of Piotr Mlodozeniec has been changed, most likely by liberals, to reflect what are supposed to be the new realities of the day. The liberal COEXIST image adds the following to Islam, Judaism and Christianity symbols: Peace sign, Gender, Wicca and Taoism. This emblem is commonly used as a bumber sticker.
The Message
Coexistence, diversity, and tolerance, are praiseworthy messages. The Jews and Christians are tolerant people; however, they do not tolerate evil, nor should they. As Martin Luther King stated, "Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that." We should not coexist with evil but fight as commanded by God. The hypocrisy of this message is that a certain contingent of Muslims refuses to coexist with other religions. Islam refuses to recognize those that do not adhere to Mohammed. Also, Muslims put to death those people who convert from Islam and believe those who are non-believers are only good enough to be slaves of Muslims.
