So are Islamic threads that are started by people who have called Islam a disease or mental disorder in the past instantly closed? I think you'll find they are not.
Again i will stress that I'm not asking for people to give Islam any special privileges, just fair treatment for all religions.
But as Alpha pointed out, you don't see that from other religions' followers, in general.
I'm not saying that the fundamentalist extremist terrorist Muslims are correct, or that they represent Islam...only that when they claim their actions are in the name of Allah and in accordance with Muslim teachings, they bring negative light on their religion as a whole.
