You mentioned the KKK but not all Democrats were members of the KKK, Same with Nazism, same with Communism. All were eventually defeated or driven underground, where they belong.There were people on the inside who fought against both ideologies. But perhaps there may be some good in Islam, something I may have overlooked. What do you find especially attractive about islam, and what are some of its finer features?
According to some, I am a fake Christian because I support LBGT rights and I engage in Poly and BDSM. But in reality they don't get to determine whether I have a relationship with God through Christ or not. Nor does anyone get to determine whether or not someone claiming to be Muslim actually is or not. There is no true objectivity to religion. There is no one true Muslim. Hence the reference to the True Scottsman fallacy.
I too am curious, I can't seem to find any. Muhammed did stop the killing of baby girls, But hey, he probably wanted them for sex.
yes, but we're forced to live in the contemporary world and deal with contemporary problems. Using excuses of killing people today because of what may have occurred generations or centuries ago will not make the world a better place..
And now Islam is doing the same. And just like the extremists that exist even today, Islam's extremists are fighting violently against their eventual demise. This is why the broad brushing of the entire religion based upon the Sharia is wrong.
judge it in 200 years because if you judge it now then we should have judged white americans 200 years ago but we didnt, we gave you the benefit for 400 years.
The thread title isn't the only thing to address. There is the entirety of the OP, which included broad brushing. Using comparisons to show how this is improper is legitimate .
Islam did the same since the 7th century. Jefferson was part of pushing them back into the Mideast, where they remained for the 200 years of the quietest time in their history. But oil money is bringing them out, with the same sicko religion they always had.
It still can't do it. It is documented in the religion it cannot change. Try changing something and you're an apostate, and will be killed.
turkey is doing great. europe could become just like turkey and it would be fab. all those spices and people being super healthy and women dressing modestly not like $2 whores.
Are we sharing the same definition of 'moderate' in the same basic context as those 'Islamic Leaders? Which leaders and what what percentage of 'Islamic leaders' across the planet are you using as the basis of your assertion ?
or you could pack up and go live in turkey... Don't worry I'll take care of those you consider $2 whore.
why go there when they can come to me. Greater Turkey, sounds good to me, lets get it! Doner Kebabs all day baby, bliss. plus turkish women are HOT
There is only Islam. and it is fully documented. It's hard to rely on what a Muslim tells you, because they are obligated to lie anyways.
Simply not true. In Turkey, a predominantly Muslim country - being gay is not a crime. In Malaysia, the world's largest Muslim population, being gay is tolerated, no longer punishable by death. Women are starting to drive in Saudi Arabia. Things change. Things always change.
Meanwhile, Christians started two World Wars and killed over 100 million people. Roses do not grow from the asses of any religious cult when it comes to violence.
