Don't believe the campaigns of the far-right which spits Islamophobia.

I said that I've always thought that Islam is the least tolerant religion. I didn't say that Muslims can't be tolerant people.

Muslims are 25% of the globe. If it was a bloodthirsty religion; we would've eaten the world -just like the Mongols did-. Our religion is 1400 years old. The Islamic section though is best suited for this discussion.

For the record I have no sect -believe it or not-, I read the Quran only and act upon it.
I am a native Arab so I can understand it fluently.

Apologies for diverting the topic. I shouldn't have asked you that question on this thread.

Which you can discuss in the religious section.

I don't have anything against WinterHold personally, I just have little confidence in people who believe in magic books.
If they will believe that, they may even believe that, I don't know, flying a plane into a building or something may get them 72 virgins Dunno
Crazy notion, huh?

No. A specific section is better; just like atheists have their own news and activism section.
But it's a matter of voting; after all.

We don’t have our own current affairs section. Do you only see us posting atheist news stories?

The only section that is an atheist section is the one specifically labeled atheism.

I didn't know that you hold such xenophobic and ignorant thoughts, ignoramus. It's a shame; really. But for the record, an extreme militia does not represent the 1,7 billion Muslims out there.

But I can see how opposing the opening of the new Human Rights section has nothing to do with it, but everything to do with my faith. Which puts hundreds of thick lines under you.

You’re confusing religious rights with human rights.
