It mostly shows you aren't well informed. The left, supports freedoms and that includes the right to believe one's personal fairy tale. But go ahead and post anything from the left that applauds throwing gays from buildings. I don't expect any proof.
That often happens when one culture avoids the 'melting pot' and remains on their own, importing the bad habits they learned from the countries they fled. They're usually non European.
We are lucky in that even our religous nutjobs generally don't believe in the bible as much as muslims believe in 'the sunnah' that's really the only difference between christians and muslims. The bible has plenty on killing torture incest rape and robbery. It's sort of the fundamental problem with religion. It isn't true, so yo ucan't really say one thing or another is part of that 'true' religion.
Does the leftist fairy tale include tossing Gays from tall buildings, stoning women, killing for blasphemy, etc. Are you actually for these laws?
So your goal is to carry Trumps water who incites violence ? Why not put you energy to good use and propose secularity among all religions. The Old Testament is a motherload of bad ideas, every bit as bad as Islam. The difference is, Christianity has gone through a reformation where enlightened people including Christians, keep their religious beliefs and bigotries to themselves.
The Jewish old Covenant has nowhere near the killing, torture, incest, rape, and robbery of Islam. as I said, Islam's is documented in volumes. Not verses. not pages. not chapters. But VOLUMES of, open to any page.
The leftist fairy tale is allowing freedoms. Something the fairy tale RW believers are deathly afraid of. Post your proof. Like the other poster, I don't expect any from either of you or any person who thinks the left anyone from the left applauds those things. The RW just uses them as a divisive position to push their extreme dislike of entire group of people based on the actions of a few. But we'll see if you can back up your claims.
Not sure how often Jesus Christ was mentioned in the Old Testament, my guess is zero, but probably not often as in the Koran.
Well, even if it disavowed the old testament, which it doesn't, you can still pretty much justify whatever you want in the new testament. There is no way to ever test anything in fantasy or mythology, so the question of is "____" (terrible act) promoted or disavowed by a particular religion? Is as impossible to answer as "who would win in a fight between superman or the hulk?" It is endlessly debatable, but, there is no thread to reality that you could use to test any theory out because the entirety of all of those worlds exist only in the mind and have no testable effect on reality.
That's my point. I don't think the left supports throwing gays from buildings. But they've placed Muslims as their top minority group above all others. It makes no sense.
So you agree with me then, the left doesn't support tossing gays from tall buildings, stoning women, killing for blasphemy, etc. . Good. Why ask such a silly question in the 1st place.
The Golden Rule: Matthew 7:12 So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you". What's wrong with that?
Right, all religion is at it's core mindless gibberish. The reason you know that is because there is no part of reality that you can use to determine the validity of one or the other. For example, there is no statistical difference in survival rates between cancer-stricken Americans who pray and those that don't. And conversely, pedophiles, or muslims don't have higher incidences of heart attack than a good peaceful hindu (when controlled for other factors). In other words, every religion has exactly the same effect on real life as superhero comic books. Teh biggest issue is only how seriously which groups take one particular mythology or another. But otherwise, iron man is exactly equal to allah or jahweh in every other aspect of reality.
That is simply BS. Minority groups are minority groups. The left would like the same treatment of all minority groups equally. It's just the RW makes more issues out of certain groups at different times. Support for religious freedoms, IS NOT support for horrible religious laws.
Nothing is wrong with that, but then on the other hand, matthew 3:10 can be used to justify any cruelty that you want. And you can't do anything to prove that one has more weight than the other.
George Bernard Shaw said. Do not do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Their tastes may not be the same.
When those religious beliefs infringe on basic human rights and freedoms then it cannot and should not be supported. Islam, as you should know by now, is also far more than just a 'religion'. It is also politics and law.
I support it as much as I support christians, jews, buddahs, etc to worship peacefully as they please. Do you? http://politicalforum.com/index.php...lam-by-the-book.553267/page-6#post-1070398126
