WE "lefties" criticizes any and ALL religions, including Islam. FYI you keep saying "lefty" like we should be ashamed. Yea you can say what you want, but stop whining like a crybaby when you don't like our responses.

Muslims use religion to justify violence? NO SHIT SHERLOCK!  So has every fucking religion in the world.

You're missing the point. When someone kills with guns and you go on an anti-gun diatribe, people generally don't criticize you for using a tragedy for political purposes. I'm just pointing out the hypocrisy.

Huh? That's always what happens. Not on this forum, but in general.

Last i checked Brian gets plenty of flak for doing this . And last i checked he is both on the left and an atheist so their is that. And Aegon politicizes tragedies when ?

No hypocrisy on my part.

Alpha is buying this otherism crap sold by the right. 

Blasphemy and criticism is not the same as bigotry.

The morons on the right have far more to worry about dying from someone BORN HERE than any immigrant. 

"They do it!" isn't an argument to justify bigotry. No shit, yes they do, because our species has always had violent people worldwide. 


"He murdered people and praised Allah."

Again, yeas and NO SHIT. Any religion can be used to justify violence and has been.

Alpha isn't doing what say Ayaan Hirsi Ali does. He isn't doing what We do here. He is buying into ignorance and fear. 

He is trying to argue we are demanding nobody ever criticize religion which fucking stupid considering this is an atheist page. 

No, all we are saying is don't be an asshole bigot.

Guy looks like he'd fit right in to appalachia. Sounds like it too.

More whining with your cheese.

Did anyone here put a gun to your head and force you to join? 

You, "They didn't report that he shouted Allah Akbar,"

Me, " I don't know what report you were watching, it was widely reported, I have a TV too."

Atlass33 is one of our Muslim members here. He will readily admit that the Koran and Hadiths have been and still are used to justify violence towards others. 

WE are NOT denying that happens.

But if you think the solution is to deny human rights to your fellow humans, or be inhuman to those fleeing war or poverty, then yea, we do have a problem with you. Nobody is arguing to allow violent people in. We are arguing that you don't keep non violent people out. And the same can be said for the bullshit arguments about Mexico made by the bigots on the right. 

Islam does NOT own the sole patent on human cruelty. EVERY religion has been used to justify violence towards others. 

Your Frank Burns whining is not working.

It is not wrong to criticize or blaspheme religion. It was because of such acts the west is better off. The problem now is we cant simply point to one religion in one part of the world and claim they are the sole problem. OUR species bad logic causes people worldwide to use religion to justify violence. Any holy writing in the world can be used to justify harm to others. 

One person will call it terrorism, another person will call it self defense. But all holy writings of all religions ARE used to justify both.

My empathy as a human even in recognizing that humans use holy books as weapons will not allow me to to assume the guilt prior to an act. It is possible to criticize and blaspheme without losing sight that we are still the same species.

Alpha has been brainwashed into accepting simple solutions and cliche answers, and allowed his own fear to swallow such.

Alpha also stupidly thinks all atheists are liberals, or that we always agree, and we are not all liberals and we don't always agree.

Atlass is a Muslim, but I won't put him in with the same likes as the sicko who ran over those people in NYC. I've had it out with him too. I've been blunt with him too. But no, until or unless he gives me something to worry about I wont assume the individual's guilt, even if I think their logic sucks on a given claim.

LISTEN UP

We are NOT denying Muslims commit acts of violence and use the Koran do do so. SO PLEASE STOP ignoring that. What we are saying is that does not give you or anyone the right to harm others who don't do that. 

"Keep violent people out" is all one has to say, and nobody would disagree with that. You don't have to say "Mexican" or "Muslim". I want non violent people to come here no mater what nation they are from. I also don't ignore that we have plenty of violent people born and raised here.

Isolationism is what creates human division. Fear of the unknown is what they sell and what you buy too. Fear feeds off itself and it exists in all camps. Blasphemy and criticism are one thing. Hate of bad logic is also one thing. But hating people as individuals whom have yet to do anything, is wrong.
