That's stupid.
So are you suggesting that Muslims are a different species? It always annoys the hell out of me when people refer to themselves as "human" and their opponents as "non-human" or "inhuman". Don't fall into the trap of dehumanizing your opponents, it doesn't bring anything useful to the table and only makes you sound unintelligent. Accept that everyone is human, and that it's part of the human condition to sometimes follow harmful ideologies that are detrimental to the larger population. Claiming that you are human and Muslims are not, makes you no better than a religious fundamentalist. They aren't following Islam because they are evil or because they want to destroy the world, they genuinely think that it is the right thing to do. You're not going to convince anyone that Islam is wrong by telling them that they are somehow less than human by being Muslim.
Saying someone isn't human because of their ideological mistakes brings the debate down to a very low-brow level. Try to stay objective please.
