Why Islam is disrespected

I was just referring to the region where many of the graves were found and pointing out that it was a helluva long way from the swamp they were actually fighting in...

They couldn't have gotten to Kurdish Territory without sacking Baghdad.

Where do you get this stuff?


The fighting between Iran and Iraq wasn't confined by some artificial limit to the swamp, it was occurring many times up and down the borders between the two countries.

I have a persian carpet at home that was made a hundred years ago in a village in the kurdish region of Iraq. That village and two others nearby, in the Kurdish area, was completely wiped out during the Iran-Iraq War as there were major battles in the area.

It's crazy to suggest that only Muslims engage in religiously motivated violence.

Look at the Jews. Their murderous occupation of Palestine stems from their belief that God said they could have it.

Then there's the 'Christians' who run your country. Every time they murder someone they try to pin the blame on the Bible.

Or the Tamil's, who actually pioneered suicide bombings.

The list goes on.


What a stupid ape you are.

Either address the argument or come up with a worthy insult.

Argue? With you? Over what?

Never try and teach a pig to sing. It won't work, and you'll only piss off the pig.

You should try getting a job before you start calling anyone names.
 
I'd like to hear you sing. At least you could squeal. No more than usual, just a little bit.
 
LT, what's it like when everyone has you on ignore and nobody knows or cares what the hell you're saying?
 
LT, watch my lips:

EVERYONE HAS YOU ON IGNORE AND HAS NO IDEA WHAT YOU'RE SAYING.

Start another alt.

Creep.

How's that? You're the one who got it wrong with the "anti-semitic" crapola about Lovelynice's quite valid news article from the New Zealand Herald about the homicidal Mossad agent.

One minor point. I was talking to CH last night concerning the Holy Qu'ran and translations. As I already noted, if it's not in Arabic, it's NOT the Holy Qu'ran.

However, they have taken to printing the book in Arabic interleaved with the language of the targeted reader. Wallah, best of both worlds. It becomes an official Holy Qu'ran and a translation.

Ishmael

Very strict fundamentalist types could make the same claim about the Holy Bible. If it's not the original language, then it's not the Holy Bible.

In any case, it is the holy Qu'ran if the right people say it is. Depends on the translation and who approved it. Like anything else, not everyone will agree, but many will agree nevertheless.

Key words being hundreds of years. If you can show me where so-called Christians, Jews, Buddhists or Hindis murdered a few thousand people in recent memory then I'll agree that all religions suck equally.

mornin Chief-

Tell me this? Are the royals in Saudi Arabia "religious?" Do they lean heavily in any direcction other than the bank? Are we not the Faustian brothers to these Islamic "leaders." Might explain some of the fundamentalist discontent. Oh, and dont forget supersize McDonalds.

:) ;)

It might explain it...except there's been fundamentalist discontent, as you so predictably understate it, in the region for centuries before the United States even came to be.

Quite a few Russian Jews killed an estimated 20 million Christians in the USSR, working for the communists in taking away all the property of property owners and having a grand time of wiping out Christian communities that resisted the Communist regime. They didn't strictly do this for religion, they did it for thieving as a little payoff from the state and it wasn't something that was a necessary part of being Jewish in Russia but it was the way things worked.

In India, conflict between Hindis and Sikhs has resulted in quite a few thousand people being killed in the modern post-war era.

Hindis and Moslems really got into killing each during the break up between India and Pakistan when they divided into seperate nations after the British left.

The Lord's Army that uses kids as soldiers in Africa has a twisted version of Christian theology as well. They've easily killed thousands.

The conflict in Northern Ireland is as much about religion as it is about national identitity and independence.

In Japan, we had the crazy Aum Shinrikyo trying to nerve gas everyone on the Tokyo subway.

Just mentioning a few.
 
What sickens me is seeing Muslim females walking around in their covering clothes. How can we let Muslim males oppress females this way?

So we're a multicultural country. Which means we must accept Muslims. Which means we're discriminating if we abuse them for their sexist beliefs. That's pretty shit.

And don't try that argument about the Kouran being just a guide. If someone is MADE to dress a certain way for someone else's ego; that's just wrong.

Also; you might say that the females LIKE their religion. It's because they don't know any better.

If they did it for other reasons too, why did you mention it? And Communism isn't easy on religion in general.

In India, conflict between Hindis and Sikhs has resulted in quite a few thousand people being killed in the modern post-war era.

Riots, civil wars and similar unrest are one thing. Terrorism is quite another, whatever the justification. So this item is also irrelevent.

Hindis and Moslems really got into killing each during the break up between India and Pakistan when they divided into seperate nations after the British left.

Military conflicts are by definition not murderous, unless there is some evidence of war crimes.

The Lord's Army that uses kids as soldiers in Africa has a twisted version of Christian theology as well. They've easily killed thousands.

In how much time? years, weeks, or hours? But like I said, just because you say you are Christian or Muslim doesn't mean you are.

The conflict in Northern Ireland is as much about religion as it is about national identitity and independence.

So this situation would be irrelevent for the same reason as the first if the I.R.A. weren't a terrorist organization.

In Japan, we had the crazy Aum Shinrikyo trying to nerve gas everyone on the Tokyo subway.

That attack killed three thousand people? Funny you should mention it though, as these groups have cooperated on various ventures before, including Japanese cells.

What country is it you're refering to?

Nope...athiests hold that distinction, 30 million under Mao, 20 million under Stalin.

The problem has always been when a belief system is either used or uses the power of the State through the acquiesence of political leaders. No matter what their religious affiliation, people are people. It always has been the human condition that's the source of all of our problems. "We have met the enemy and it is us." - Pogo
