Can you clarify? How do you reconcile this with, for example, the death penalty for apostasy? Is it because people get a choice between death and doing what the Muslims tell them to do?
lol, this is the problem with discussing anything with you. Time and time you are corrected, yet you come up with the same lies, repeated again and again. Its like you aim to beat people into boredom with your repetitive nonsense.
Apostasy laws in Islam are to do with treason, just as the US and many countries in the west also punish treason with death. But I don't expect someone with your limited abilities to understand.
And whats there to clarify. Tell me, who in Australia has ever been forced to practise Islam. Do you have any examples.
Who in Australia has ever received the death penalty for 'apostasy'..as you put it.
In fact, of the 2 billion muslims world wide, can you tell me in the last decade, how many have been given the death penalty for 'apostasy'.
The ironic thing is only 2 or 3 countries in the world actually enforce this law, and even then, very rarely, yet you continously bring this up. And you wonder why we don't take you seriously.

No one is stopping you. You are free to do as you please, up until your actions begin to deny other people their freedom.
So whats your problem with Islam and muslims in Australia then?
Are we not just practising what you have stated is our 'democratic rights'. Or do non-muslims in Australia have more rights then muslims?
By attacking Islam in Australia, are you not really attacking the right, for a muslims to have a different opinion then yours?
Besides, do you have any examples of this, where in Australia muslims have denied other people their freedom.
On the contrary, in the west it is non-muslims that are denying the freedoms of muslims. I don't think you need me to provide examples. You know what I am talking.

Not true. Under Islamic law, the penalty for rejecting Islam is death, regardless of the implications for national security.
No Freediver, Under islamic law, the penalty for treason is death. Why do you keep peddling these lies?
India was under Islamic rule for hundreds of years, yet the majority of the population is still Hindu. Yes, Hindu's who rejected Islam.
Egypt still has a sizeable Christian minority, as do many arab countries. If your lies were true, they would not exist (much like the destruction of South American Indian culture by Christian Spain).
THe fact that their are many churches and synagogues in lands formuly ruled by Islam, is proof that your lies are just that...lies.
Christians/Jews/Hindu's, as well as African peoples all rejected Islam, yet flourished under its rule.

Under Australian law, the converse is not true. You are given extraordinary freedom in comparison.
I somehow suspect that this would change if you and some others here got their way. Luckily enough, at the moment, you are but a minority of ignorance.
If you became a majority, and this changed, this would highlight the flaws of democracy.
If the majority believe something, it does not make it right.

The hypocrisy is all yours Les. You complain that we criticise the stupid things you say. You claim it limits your freedom. Yet you would replace it with a system where people would be killed for speaking their mind.
lol, there you go, lieing again. Please, show me where I said that 'it limits my freedom'. A quote will suffice.
Once again, you make something up to support your argument, why am I not surprised.
And under Islam, people are not killed for speaking their minds. Once again, another lie to cover up the fact that your argument is devoid of facts and substance.
Actually, ironic you bring this up, given that in this age, people in the west are locked away with no charge, merely for what they say, and not what they do.
But hey, we'll turn a blind eye to that....won't we FD?
