I would take that with a grain of salt. I'm speaking purely through assumption here but if it's anything like every other religion it should be looked at as a generalized term with few or no absolute characteristics when put into practice. If this isn't the case please feel free to school me I'm naive to the subject.
The point I'm trying to make is: being a christian doesn't mean you don't support abortion or the death penalty, so why do islamists(?) have to support political ruling through islam? Harmfulness should be approached on a case by case basis and not be a stigma that you attach to an entire group of people.
