Western media and intellectuals are in denial about the role of Islamic theology in motivating terrorists like Boko Haram. Dr Mark Durie uses an analogy of being blindfolded while people are trying to beat you up. Western intellectuals would rather be beaten to death, than take of their blindfold and think critically about Islam.

The Glazov Gang
Dr. Mark Durie on “Jihadist Slavery and Rape — and Islam-Denial.”
Mark Durie (Associate Fellow, Middle Eastern Forum)

Even al Qaeda condemns these nutjobs. This is the same part of the world that brings us the Lord's Resistance Army.

Quote:Dr Mark Durie is a theologian, human rights activist, Anglican pastor, a Shillman-Ginsburg Writing Fellow at the Middle East Forum, and Adjunct Research Fellow of the Centre for the Study of Islam and Other Faiths at Melbourne School of Theology.

Yeah, you're right. Please post the next interview you do, so we can see how we don't need "dickheads" like Dr Durie. I'm sure you'll have one real soon, right? Otherwise you'd be a right dickhead to shout down an ally against terrorism. But you're not such a dickhead, so I'm sure you've got a video interview for us real soon....

It's petty fuckwits like you that give atheism a bad name. (No, I'm not a Christian).

Minimalist's posts are accurate, straight on the subject and deliver a quick, but well aimed intervention into each of the topics he addresses. He is well spoken, smart and has a talent for capturing the essence of what goes on. He is of great value to every reader and a pillar of this community.

I believe his contribution to the forum is worth more than 1,000 speeches on youtube, so kindly go fuck yourself and make a video about it also. Tape yourself. We would all like to see it...not.

Look up what Dawkins said about "theologians" and then get back to me, son.

Both of you are uncompromising, apolitical, inconsequential aresholes. Emotional noise, that's all you are. It makes yourself feel good to have a "minimalist" mindset that fucks everyone who doesn't fit your views, but your minimalist wailing makes the world a worse place because you can't see an ally when he is staring you in the fucking face. Pathetic. Fuck the arseholes on this degenerate forum like both of you. Fucking juvenile morons.

Basically calls them non-contributors.

Quote:What has theology ever said that is of the smallest use to anybody? When has theology ever said anything that is demonstrably true and is not obvious? I have listened to theologians, read them, debated against them. I have never heard any of them ever say anything of the smallest use, anything that was not either platitudinously obvious or downright false. If all the achievements of scientists were wiped out tomorrow, there would be no doctors but witch doctors, no transport faster than horses, no computers, no printed books, no agriculture beyond subsistence peasant farming. If all the achievements of theologians were wiped out tomorrow, would anyone notice the smallest difference? Even the bad achievements of scientists, the bombs, and sonar-guided whaling vessels work! The achievements of theologians don't do anything, don't affect anything, don't mean anything. What makes anyone think that "theology" is a subject at all?

Good luck finding other active atheist forums.

Your low serotonin makes the world a worse place. Go get treated before you slit bro

I know that, if a blind man is crossing the street because he heard a bird singing, I won't follow him unless I look both ways. And that sorry ass cocksucker in that video is worst than blind.

Black Africans such as those are insane from centuries of war and barbarism. They are not normal nuts.
