They don't get a free ride yelling fire in a crowded theater. They would have known how easily religious ideas can bring forth blood baths, so they owed mankind a perfectly referenced and clear book that would have explained within each possible-to-misconstrue point the counters to every conceivable alternate meaning. It wouldn't matter if the book was ten times longer than the bare outline version, lives are at stake.
If you are silly enough to believe in flying meta-physical angels and flying horses, then pretty much any example of the irrationality of gods is likely to fall on deaf ears. That is so sad.
That's cool.
I'm a believer in freedom of speech & it's a two sided road ; my opinion would be : check the biggest two wars in human history, were they caused by islam or by nationalism ?
Yes, excuse my savagery. I'm a stupid person who believes in another world, believes in love -yep i'm a sissy-, believes that a human being is more than just a physical body. I believe in emotions & I believe that someday i will find my soulmate, who would love me as much as i love her. Excuse me, but ali baba is a little savage who needs attitude adjustment by studs like you, who remembers freedom of speech?
Wow, what a pathetic non-answer. In what way do the causes of other wars have anything to do with allah and mo's responsibility to be clear and unmistakable in their teaching. (It doesn't, You're just reaching for straws.)
Your "god" is shown to be illogical because he is purported to have produced an imperfect book with an imperfect message.
Your imaginary stories of flying horses and visiting angels are made fun of because they are known not to exist. Yet you avoid facing this truth and instead change the subject to nationalistic wars as a means of dodging the uncomfortable truth.
As far as "nationalistic wars go, you are very much understating the role that religion plays in all wars because most countries' nationalistic fervent is drummed by the religious. The united states is a good case in point. No atheistic leader could get enough support to enact a traffic law here, let alone incite the country to war. The religious elements of nationalism were very strong in the 1940's. The fact that not many of the religious elements were islamic is not rooted in the peacefulness of islam but rather in the weakness of the countries crippled by islam. When one's life is overtaken by slavery to silly religious ritual and bronze age beliefs, they miss the science advancement bandwagon.
