Why do I say that Islam is an evil religion?

[BrianSoddingBoru4]

Islam is evil because it considers this



something that should be outlawed and punished.

I have no problem with Islam so long as stupid people aren't allowed to practice it. But that would spell the end of Islam as we know it.

I would say most Muslims are smart people......religion never had anything to do with a person's intelligence.......

[The Grand Nudger]

Otherworldly religions don't appeal to people based on their intelligence, but on their level of grievance with this world. On the basis of a disparity between the supposed kingdom to come, and that kingdom that is.

There are many reasons why Islam is evily.

The word "evil" is meaningless outside of religious language. Since you purport to be an agnostic, you can't use this word without contradicting yourself. 

And there you go, your entire worldview has just been toppled.

 No religion has any authority over words! To actually state that for an Agnostic to make use of the word "evil" is a contradiction of themselves is just about one of the most ridiculous statements I have heard in quite a while.

And there you go; your entire worldview is meaningless in itself.

Iranians use the words Satan and Evil as adjectives.
It is not a proper name or a common name.
For example, let's say:
You are very Hitler.
And we mean you are very racist.
For example, let's say that Israel is very Hitler.
We mean that like Hitler who brought disaster to the Jews, Israel is bringing disaster to the Palestinians.
But you come to tell us that Hitler and Israel are enemies, so Israel cannot be Hitler.

You know what religiosity correlates with, by state, in the U.S.? Bad educational systems.

There are religious people all across America, including states that do not have bad educational systems (relatively speaking). Don't be so eager to dismiss the humanity of religious individuals that you refuse to use common sense.

I didn't dismiss anything. I simply pointed out a fact. You were the one who drew the conclusion that said fact implies something about religious people and that rustled your jimmies, so you fired back.

But it's not even a fact.
