Don't waste, rather than "act blind" because it's out of fashion now to blame christians.
The new fashion is to blame muslims for everything. Mainstream media has that effect on stereotypes.
Quote:I don't think ISIS can join that boat, because I don't believe for a second that Islam is an inconsequential and incidental element in this group and its behavior.
mmm, even AL-Qaeda said they're not following Islam probably. They take an islamic label and twist it to their needs whenever they want to.
I can disprove to you most of their actions from the Quran itself.
Faith No More
Just like communists who used atheism as a spear's head to oppress religious people & kill them too.
The difference between me & you is :
I don't blame lenin.
I blame Stalin.

I'm so sorry for that I forgot to hide the explicitly violent content ; I wrote the topic quickly :/ .

Quote:Indeed. Although I assume that the reason the atrocities committed by Muslims and/or in the name of Islam are listed is to show that religion doesn't seem capable of preventing the very worst human impulses. Sometimes it seems as if the more devout one becomes, the more likely that they'll find a way to use their religion as a justification for some truly horrifying acts. It's possible that those examples are being used as a response to the occasional claim that those who do not believe in god lack a moral anchor and are capable of the worst acts imaginable.
Vise versa ; believe me.
Ask these violent muslims : did they learn islam by themselves , or did an old scholar with a huge beard poured lies into their heads ?
I studied the Quran by myself, asked god alone to guide me, and now I know the truth that even hurting animals is a terrible terrible sin.
Those "devoted people" you talk about are not devoted to god ; they are devoted to "CULTS" and "SECTS" which are mainly led by a big beard fella who plays the prophet's role & pour all kind of weird stuff without even quoting probably from the Quran.
Didn't you notice that mainly, a bearded guy sitting in a mosque would throw a "fatwa", then violence kicks in ?
it's always the sects. always the cults.
Not the Quran.

It's just a bit odd that the longer a religion persists, the less intervening the god does. Also funny how they've gone full silent since the advent of reliable recording technology.
Life is a test, remember ?
Humans aren't children, remember ?
And yet the Quran exists to fix our lives. Before it was jesus and the bible, moses and the tulmud, noah, abraham...etc, peace be upon them all. So god did intervene. But he wouldn't force you would he ? he'll see what you do. and then judge you.
He'll let you practice whatever you wanna practice. Then he'll show you what your faith has caused to the environment & people around you. Judgement day they call it.

Why don't we remove nationalism along with it ?

Obviously it caused WW1 & WW2,people in millions attacking other people in millions too for a peace of flag..

Some ?
Non muslims demolished two cities from the face of earth using atomic weapons, and waged two world wars that crippled the whole world.
Any weapon of mass destruction nowadays was invented by non muslims, every chemical weapon was invented and used by non muslims.
"some"..indeed.

I honestly believe all humans are capable of these crimes ; believers can indeed repel & defy their believes at any moment, and commit terrible stuff.
