Thanks for proving me right.
Biggest pussy Michael Moore and freedom hating sack of fat agrees w/ you.
And I just knew that the second anyone disagreed with you, you'd resort to your usual childish name-calling. Thanks for proving me right.
And since we're all such pussies, and you're such an obvious tough guy who loves freedom and fights for it at every turn, tell us all - where and when did you serve your country?

No thanks. That's more Rappy's forté, the biblical stoning kind of crap. Unlike the righties, I don't feel the need to kill those with whom I disagree; I'd rather enlighten them.

Nothing you said, in any way, discredits or denies my post.

Being an atheist, it's hi-larious to see your idiotic comments.
What Christian nation has resorted to state sponsored stoning in the past 300 years ? 500 years? 1000 years? Anyone ?
You keep up w/ the 'enlightening' tact. See how well that works for you in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran and S.Arabia, for snorts and giggles.

Well, he's got a point.
Christians prefer live burning, preferably tied to a stake.
Or hanging. Or crushing (eww--apparently, one of the convicts of the Salem witch trials was crushed to death by heavy stones). Or electrocuting. Or gassing. Or poisoning.
Or waterboarding. Or other techniques of "aggressive interrogation."
Christians are so much more creative with murder than Muslims.
Oh...oh...oh!! Don't forget this!

Dude.
No one is denying that there are horrid things happening in the name of Islam in the form of religious extremism.
But your theory that Islam itself is to blame, as opposed to various political motivations or a general cultural prevalance of theocracy is again and again disproven by - indeed - examples of people of other faiths acting in the same way in the past and of the plentiful non-violent, non-extremist muslims all over the world.
"Islam = violent extremism" is simply not true. At least not any more than "Any religion = violent extremism". Because we have seen what they all are capable of with the right cultural/political motivators.
Yet you ignore that.
Again and again.
Instead of trying to have a fruitful discussion about those motivators, you return over and over to the least useful, most simplicistic, most childishly afraid distorted interpretation possible.
Why???
It's like you're trying to dismantle any trace of complexity (in our world? In human societies?? Complexity? No way!) in order to be able to paint one bright bulls-eye target.
Sure you must be bright enough to understand that by discounting a true understanding of complex problems, you are also ignoring any path to a true solution?
So please, please, please, quit these "A muslim has done something bad. This proves all of Islam is evil" threads.
Also: Do you personally know any muslims? If the answer is yes, is your relationship with them hostile? Are they violent and evil? If you do not, how about getting to know some in order to gain some insight? None of the muslims I have met in my life (moderate, female muslima in university, mostly, but also mothers at playgrounds, store owners, people I meet through my job) have ever expressed ill intent toward me and instead were polite, friendly, some wickedly funny.
I'm going to take those experiences as equally respresentative about Islam, if not more so.
Or rather, it's got little to do with religion. There are decent people who happen to be religious and there are extremist terrorists who happen to be religious. Which religion each of them claim... pffft, barely relevant.

My theory is that the Qur'an is easier to corrupt than other religious texts. That and the widespread poverty and isolation from education leads to desperate people looking at comfortable people and coming to the conclusion that "We are God's people; they're not. They have things we do not. Therefore THEM=EVIL."

Waterboarding... witch hunts... When did the the CIA become the Christian Intelligence Agency? Also, when did the USA become a christian theocracy? This whole 'look at how bad these people are, I'll bet they did it cause they are christians' argument is even more childish and stupid than the original argument. At least the original foolish supposition that Muslims want all this violence was actually the topic of the gorram thread!
I've got a radical idea. How about someone defend Islam with examples of peaceful Muslims or peaceful Islamic practices? Do yall enjoy petty finger pointing or is your argument against Muslims being radical nutjobs really that weak?
Please prove me wrong and defend Islam with Islam, not by shaking your finger and pointing to something bad someone else did.

Not a bad idea there. I know of an example of a peaceful Muslim as one of my best friends is a Muslim and is one of the most peaceful people I know.
And as for defending Islam with Islam, here's some stuff from the Qur'an:
Quote:
Say : O ye that reject Faith! I worship not that which ye worship, Nor will ye worship that which I worship. And I will not worship that which ye have been wont to worship, Nor will ye worship that which I worship. To you be your Way, and to me mine. - Sura 109: 1-6
You may fight in the cause of Allah against those who attack you, but do not aggress. Allah does not love the aggressors. - 2:190
You shall be charitable; Allah loves the charitable. - [2:195]
Some reasonable stuff. And I know some people will think and say that there are verses in there that promote violence and there are. But remember, Islam was an off-shoot of Christianity which was an off-shoot of Judaism and there is plenty of fucked-up shit in their holy texts.

Why???
Because he is utterly incapable of looking at religions with anything like objectivity, yet still claims himself to be an "atheist", all the while simply refusing to see the evil done in the name of one religion, and being unable to see anything BUT the evil done by another.
