That's what I don't understand. The peace and love wannabe hippie libtards support a group that condones violence towards gays, women, handicapped and of course, us "infedels"What is hard to understand is how liberal feminists defend islam in many situations, ignoring how islam makes women secondary citizens with few personal rights.......

Just like barbecue is the most healthy food......mmmm, barrrrrbeeecue...Is a peaceful religion.
By crusades are you referring to the Islamic crusades that are currently happening?Some of the Progressives from down in the P&G cesspool will be along to tell us of all the evils of Christianity soon.
Oh...and what about the crusades.

In most cases the term Peaceful Religion is an oxymoron...
And for the "That was then this is now" crowd an omnipotent, omnipresent deity would not need a timescale. Now, 2000 years ago or 2000 years in the future would be the same thing.
Said deity being a hallucination of a drug addled mind of mentally unstable so called prophet?No, He (or she) doesn't but, the seventh century, Bedouin throat slitters being guided by said "Diety" are (on timescale)
I'm a believer in "faith" over "religion". Religion seems to be a construct of man, and men are easily corrupted by many things. Some may find faith may be embraced, whereas religion embraces it's followers. Each person should follow their own path, and not blindly follow another's instruction. Just the same, each person should be free to follow their beliefs, up until a time when their beliefs cause harm, or impose control, on those with different points of view.In most cases the term Peaceful Religion is an oxymoron...

A good believing person has no need to practice an organized religion. Organized religions have a need for them.I'm a believer in "faith" over "religion".

Actions define both the good and evil within, not the label placed upon the person.

True.
But are you familiar with the points of “Pascal’s wager”?
- God is, or God is not. Reason cannot decide between the two alternatives
- A Game is being played... where heads or tails will turn up
- You must wager (it is not optional)
- Let us weigh the gain and the loss in wagering that God is. Let us estimate these two chances. If you gain, you gain all; if you lose, you lose nothing
- Wager, then, without hesitation that He is. (...) There is here an infinity of an infinitely happy life to gain, a chance of gain against a finite number of chances of loss, and what you stake is finite. And so our proposition is of infinite force, when there is the finite to stake in a game where there are equal risks of gain and of loss, and the infinite to gain.
- But some cannot believe. They should then 'at least learn your inability to believe...' and 'Endeavour then to convince' themselves.
These points apply to more than belief in a God when compared to other “questions” that are not up to us to determine the answers to.
Such as the existence of things like ufo’s, the history of our planet and our origins, and even Bigfoot.
Certain things are simply “out of bounds” to consider.
We are taught that Pyramids were built as tombs of the Pharaohs...yet not a SINGLE Pharaoh has ever been found in one.
Things simply “are” or they “are not”
Our opinions change nothing.
I have no problem with the idea of a deity.
The problem I have is the idea that this deity favors one religion over another and feels the need to take attendance.
If you don't agree they'll kill you just to prove it.Is a peaceful religion.
BsYou are correct, however, there are extremist groups that are completely asinine.
That’s a function of religion, not the deity.
Oh, nice paraphrase of Amy Farrah Fowler!
It was so peaceful, we fled the country to escape it.
My mom just got back from Iran on Tuesday. I picked her up from the airport and I was asking her how the country is doing economically and also mentally. She said that it's bullshit what you hear in the media. Contrary to what you hear, most people in Iran like president Trump. They are hoping he does something to get rid of the mullahs that are running the country. They would actually welcome a war to get rid of the Islamic regime even if it means innocent civilians dying. People are just sick of it. Inflation is crazy. You buy a gallon of milk on Monday for $10 and on Friday it's $15. People are just getting by with what they have but it's wearing them down.
There have been many protests and uprisings in the last decade but the army squashes them and kills anyone they can catch.
The young people of Iran are educated and want to live a western life. The women in Iran are standing up to the regime and walk around with their hair uncovered more and more. They get arrested and are beaten and killed but it's not stopping them from standing up to the tyrannical regime.
The people of Iran do not hate Israel or Jews. There are many Iranian Jews that live in Iran. They don't give a shit about Islam or Judaism. They just want to live a life of FREEDOM. I hope that one day that comes to fruition.
I've heard the same from others from different countries, and different conflicts. One had a pretty successful auto shop. He had a degree in pharmaceutical something though. Fled to the states when Russia invaded his country. You were going to become communist, or die. He said most educators and students weren't given that choice. This was the promised land. He was raised muslim, but he seemed more of a "Jack Muslim" if he was still a practicing one. He was a good worker, and made a good life away from everything he knew. We had just invaded Afghanistan when I asked him where he was from...led to a lengthy conversation.It was so peaceful, we fled the country to escape it.

Not at all, but thank you. I dropped out of community college in this life. I have been both sides of the coin. Wondered why a priest would come in to talk to me in ICU, but may not give me the time of day on the street. Witnessed strangers risk their lives or their freedom for people they didn't know. Good and evil do exist...seen more than enough of one to really appreciate the other. Following the words of men didn't work out too well for the Germans, and I don't see it working well for the current scurge either.Were you a professor in a past life? Very true and very well said.

Can we get this moved to Politics where it belongs? Islam cannot be discussed without true Free Speech.
*edit*
Oops, almost forgot. FUCK ISLAM.
