Jihad isn't necessary unless your homeland is being conquered such as what happened in Palestine for the creation of Isreal or what happened when the Christians were invading the Holy Land.(January 9, 2015 at 12:41 am) أكبر Wrote: Your anger at Islam will not stop the spread of Islam so strike your anger from your heart rather than make yourself ill and those you come in contact with!

You know what happens when women dress a little less modestly? The men get used to it. When Western women wore dresses down to their feet, a little ankle got men worked up. Now a woman can't get a raised eyebrow for a short dress unless it's up to mid-thigh. There have been very harmonious societies of people who lived their lives nearly naked. And I wonder if it's an appropriate interpretation of 'modesty' to wear clothes that draw attention to you in the culture in which you live.

Forcing others to accept your religion or face death, always was and always will be immoral. If your religion could not survive without the use of force, then it was not offering anything. Least of all, truth. You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence. RE: Science is the brother of Islam

When a woman is being stone to death, how is it decided who gets to throw the bricks at her head? Is there some sort of ranked order, or can anyone just pick up a brick and join in on killing a defenseless woman? Is it customary to high-five afterwards? Do you go out and eat dinner like nothing happened? How do you sleep? When she has finally taken enough bricks thrown at her head, what does the Quran say about checking her vitals to see if she's dead...from people throwing bricks at her head? Oh, and I've always wanted to know this, when she's dead, do you unbury her and lay her to rest in another proper burial spot or do you just cover the rest of her head with dirt and call it a day?
Peace an love.
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:
"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay." For context, this is the previous verse: "Hi Jesus" -robvalue
The problem with squiggle here is, is he real or a poe?
Damned if I can tell. (January 9, 2015 at 2:18 pm) أكبر Wrote:(January 9, 2015 at 2:08 pm)Cthulhu Dreaming Wrote: Poe. Definitely a Poe.A what? It's a reference to Poe's Law, the idea that it is impossible to parody a religious view in such a way that is unbelievable that you are really a member of that religion, because there are people who really believe the things of which you're trying to make fun. Unless you come out an say so. A 'Poe' is someone pretending to be a member of a religion to make it look bad or ridiculous. I don't think you're a Poe, for the record.

How do you feel about killing anyone that insults Islam, or the Prophet? Did you cheer when the twelve journalists were killed in France by Muslims, for a cartoon, just a few days ago?
