Strangely Stuie Ill agree with most of this in as much as you cant discuss something you know nothing or little about.

Years ago I actually read the Quran.

Came away thinking theres a lot of books in the wrong part of the Library !! :rolleyes:

For the most part it, Quran, is just anothers viewpoint and interpretation of belief and surrendering to a religions directive. There are fanatics from many beliefs. The current lot of Sharia inspired loonies is todays winner of mentally vacant despots.

The Spanish inquisition says hi

Yeah look I'm not defending Islam as a religion, I don't think it's better or worse than any other religion. I just think it's unfair to call these terrorists "Muslims" when they don't actually subscribe to the beliefs of Islam, which has been spoken about at length by Muslim teachers and leaders. One way to guarantee some kind of "religious war" is to keep classifying actions under religious banners rather than recognize these people as simply terrorists and then fight against terrorism in all it's forms.

The Terrorist Bombers were shouting "God is great" as they took concert goers out with M16's

Is this not mind control?

And does it matter which God is great as they are all cartoons of the mind?

There is going to be one huge Religious war in the coming years. These spot fires are getting more prevalent.

For what? My God is better than yours...

May they all disappear but sadly the will not...

Totally agree it's mind control. I don't believe however is that it's actual Islamic mind control in it's truest form. These terrorist organizations target very young boys and indoctrinate them in hate under the guise of it being Islam. It's sad that in this day and age there are still deaths over religious differences, some of which are only separated by who actually said what.

An important fact to note though is that more Muslims have died from "Islamic" terrorism than any other race or religion. What a mess.

Muslim Extremists are Muslims. They are MORE deluded and dangerous than the more passive Muslim but they still quote from the same Quran as they explode themselves and others in the name of Allah

that's just not completely true, stuie

there have been many muslim teachers and leaders who have defended and supported islamic jihardists over last few decades including some very prominent muslim leaders

just where do you think they get their billions to finance their terror?

No, they're not.

and pray tell me what a throw-away line like "All religions are capable of producing radical followers" adds to the discussion

it's a total non-statement

i never stated any confidence in "my knowledge" of this situation and your reference to "merits" is being disingenuous

nor did i make any knee-jerk religous generalisations

If you're really that bad at reading basic English, maybe you should think a bit more before posting anything.

And as for disingenuities maybe you should take a look in the mirror sometime since that's exactly what your use of the word 'merit' was.

The same old wafer thin rhetoric which dominates dialogue yet avoids substantive discussion.

''retard the human race'':

Did you know that science is a unique contribution of the Christian faith? It is the Christian world which gave birth to the experimental method of science itself because it was only the Christian worldview which viewed the world as a rational place which is open to exploration and discovery.

''Badly written''

I honestly have no time today to go through supposed contradictions. But luckily for me, this guy already has:

Anyways, check those videos out if you want to learn something.

Sorry Moneider, you can get away with all sorts of claims about the cultural importance of Christianity, but this is reaching too far. It was the Greeks (Aristotle for one).

You are this time my friend. For a while I actually thought you wouldn't have an antiquated view, that's the only thing I was wrong about.

No, they don't. Not sure how many more times I have to say this... Saying you're doing something doesn't mean you are. I'm writing this right now in the name of Buddha. Hmmm does that make it actually true?

Did Hitler kill in the name of God? (He was basically a Catholic)

Do the KKK lynch in the name of Christianity?

Do the Americans attack pretty much whoever they want in the name of God?

Do Catholic priests molest children in the name of Jesus?

Grasp the concept that these terrorists are in fact blasphemists to their own religion because their ACTIONS go against the actual BELIEFS that they claim to follow.

The term "discussing on its merits" is a common enough term and you knew exactly what i meant and that is what i said was disingenuous

however.....i concede that the term "merits" in the context of a discussion on terrorism was inappropriate, even though there was no intention of using that word in one of its other meanings.

merit
[mer-it]
Spell Syllables

It depends which Chapter of the Quran you read as to how true that statement is?

These Terrorists are killing in the name of Allah

They are also blowing themselves up in the name of Allah

The Saudi's Drift their cars on public roads in the name of Allah..Do not try and deflect that one Stuie, no matter how much study you have embarked on.

let's have a short break from all this ot stuff

for your edification.........

A guy enters a bar carrying an alligator.

Says to the patrons, "Here’s a deal. I'll open this alligator's mouth and place my genitals inside.

The gator will close his mouth for one minute, then open it, and I'll remove my unit unscathed.

If it works, everyone buys me drinks." The crowd agrees.

The guy drops his pants and puts his privates in the gator's mouth. Gator closes mouth.

After a minute, the guy grabs a beer bottle and bangs the gator on the top of its head. The gator opens wide, and he removes his genitals unscathed.

Everyone buys him drinks.

Then he says: "I'll pay anyone $100 who's willing to give it a try."

After a while, a hand goes up in the back of the bar. It's a woman.

"I'll give it a try," she says, "but you have to promise not to hit me on the head with the beer bottle."

Do Catholic priests molest children in the name of Jesus?

Bmok

Yes They most certainly did

"Say nothing about this to anyone ever. I am Gods messenger, thus i wear this cape"

Catholic Priests got away with this atrocity for decades by using fear as their defence.

That was my whole point WYL. Now, do you think those priests would be considered good true Catholics?

I'm going to leave it at that mate. Have a good day.

The point is that Religion has allowed certain Human Beings do disgraceful things in the name of a Cloud Fairy

And The Church Ministers have turned a blind eye to it.

So i say the Authorities of this evil Religion are not "Good"

Quite simple really

    HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne traveled across the continent to take on the Fremantle Dockers in sweltering conditions at Mandurah south of Perth in a game that delivered the club both its highlight and its lowlight in the first minute.  But first, let’s start by doing away with the usual cliches used in connection with the game. It was just a practice match and the result didn’t matter. Bad kicking is bad football. The game was played in severe heat, the swirly breeze played havoc with both teams resulting in

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
