Well some people think that the millions of deaths caused by Nazis (who are followers of atheism) was messed up.
Quote:Yes, it fucking does. Maybe not all the time, but stoning is outright nauseating.
Look I am tired of the same stereotypical discussion I have with ignorant people. In case you don't know, the phrase "stoning" is not even mentioned in the Quran.
Stoning is such a cliche thing to say, cause people like you are brainwashed by the media and have a hard-on for it.
Quote: I am sorry, but that is not true. All people can be corrupted. I laugh because I am actually watching a documentary right now and they were showing how the sex trade flourished in Iraq (largely Muslim country, there) after Saddam was killed. It is dictatorships and seriously strict laws that keep Muslims in line, not innate goodness. Mind you, that is not to say that some Muslims are not good. I am very sure that there are some truly wonderful Muslims out there. I am just saying they are human. Everyone is susceptible to vices, everyone.
It's so convenient to pick and choose nations that are suffering economically because of years of war will have such practices. Most of these people have psychological issues.
You know, Congo republic which is a secular nation is known as the world's capital for rape. I wonder if the media has ever made a documentary on this issue.
You can deny all you want, but the fact is that this religion is being attacked more than any other religion. Just turn on your TV to a news channel and notice how they label psychopath terrorists as Islamic fundamentalist. This is conditional programming. Why won't they call Hitler atheist fundamentalist?

You are twisting with the conversation so much I am starting to think I am going to need a herpetologist to understand you. You said that Europeans were raiding Africa and stealing people while Muslim nations were treating them as equals. I clearly showed that statement to be false, so you changed your tune. What gives? I never argued that anyone treated black people better than Muslims. I simply refuted your claim that Muslims were kicking it like equals with Africans while Europeans tore shit up.
I am not going to comment on your source, until I verify it myself. Most of the statements the author is making is contradicting the history books I read.
For now the point I am making is that it took until after 1900s for human's right to be respected in the west.
