Its such a shame for humanity that Islam orders killing of apostates. These are simply crimes against humanity. but it isn't a surprise because Prophet Muhammad is well known for killing the poets who wanted freedom of speech or the jews who just wanted to stay alive. As long as Islam is there, innocents will be killed with impunity in the name of apostasy and blasphemy.
Hail Apostasy!

How do you newbs even manage to unearth these zombies? Or do you not care about the actual content of threads as long as it's old enough to necropost?

Cherry pick any book and you can justify anything. This is the same god character stemming from the Hebrew god of Abraham. All these books are tribal gang manuals written to get the reader to buy the idea of being the Chosen people.

All have depictions of violence to other tribes and all of them put girls/ women and kids as property status.

Those books were all written for the people of that time in an age of scientific ignorance. Back then ones success was falsely attributided to the divine. And the mortality rate was much higher so girls were seen as a resource to reproduce as quickly and more frequently. And back then ones survival highly depended on loyalty to the tribe.

The truth of the idea behind the concept as an idea of religion in all of human history is that it is really an anthropomorphic reflection of our species evolutionary group survival.

Mystic,

Even if you claimed that the quran were a magically perfect book, a book is a written form of communication and is a tool to convey ideas to other people. If the majority of the people reading the book do not get the perfect message perfectly, then the quran is like a broken photocopier, it creates an image in the hands of other men that is not true to the original and it is at fault when the other people act upon it's faulty transmission of the message.

We often focus on the religions of Abraham, but the truth, even with the polytheism of Hinduism and the so called "atheistic" religions of Asia and the Orient, such as Buddism, Taoism and Jainism still amount to artificial lables as excuses for humans to set up groups and social order. All religions are man made constructs having nothing to do with any real scientific understanding of nature, the universe or even human behavior.

I think the old loons who made the religions, especially the asian ones, understood human behavior and psychology very well, and thus formed the religions as tools of manipulating the masses.

To call a go "all powerful" or even "moral", when it could make things clear, but choses instead, to allow competing interpretations to the point humans are willing to murder each other over such a convoluted book, is absurd. It would be like a parent with multiple kids, hand them guns, and say "last one standing gets to hang out with me".

What this thread is doing is trying to absolve religion from any crimes against humanity it is commiting by saying "well it's not in the original text". It's like people saying "Muhammad was a feminist"

I don't care, I really don't. Even if Muhammad was the most pro-woman, pro-gay and tolerant individual in living history (which he definitely wasn't) that still doesn't change what is happening in Muslim communities today. "But that's not the real Islam!" Ok well why don't you tell that to Saudi Arabia, or Iran, or Bangladesh, that the Islam they are practicing is "not real Islam" - you might just get 1000 lashes for your herecy. This isn't a joke, it's reality, it's being done under the banner of this religion regardless of what the text says.

I have read neither the Quran or the Hadith so I can't say for sure, but from what I hear it seems like Muslims are eager to say "well the Quran doesn't say x" but then fail to mention that the Hadith probably does, or if not the Hadith then certainly general Islamic jurisprudence.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable."
