It is much easier to have a target to blame in circumstances such as this horror in Nice. Without Islam to cop the flack, we'd have to look at ourselves.!!
NOW don't get me wrong here... I do not LIKE ISLAM.
And I despise those weak men who must lock-up their women, and torment them, in ways physical and psychological, keeping them in slavery Can there be any doubt.??
!!! NO NO NO.
These are men afraid of women. They are SO AFRAID, they do what they do. FEAR is that basis. Sad to think of all the young girl children raped and mutilated by the old men in their town, clan, City, Nation. The customs are not Islamic, but the weak men of Islam choose to do these atrocities, under THAT cover, as excuse. AS do the terrorists. Not real Moslems at all. Sickos, and psychopaths... WHO lets face it, use Islam as an excuse for their extremes.!!. AND these psychos EXIST in every society.
But that is not ALL of ISLAM, any more than US TV Evangelists who rape their flock, for money, sex and wealth are typical of ALL CHRISTIANS. Anymore than the american Christian Alliances that arm themselves with guns and explosives and have their defensible positions, mostly aimed against their own government, as well as all the minorities, are typical CHRISTIANS.
Sweeping generalisations such as those made by Booby, for example, are too simplistic, and should not be considered as some credible reasoned response.
Quite the opposite.
This warmongering... with no expectations by the war-mongerers that they'd ever have to front up is disgusting. It is fomenting hatred in a world where we have much more than enough to go around.
AND YOU DO KNOW,, what goes around comes around.! .
In history, Christians committed unspeakable acts upon men women and children. Have a look at the Crusades.
Because that is how long BACK in time this particular schism in our world goes.
I wonder if anyone here on this forum could advise as to which warrior religion raised armies to go and kill , in God's name, first.
I suspect... And I would love to hear from some knowledgeable historian, when and which GOD'S army was raised first.
I think, sadly, it was the Christians Knights who first soaked the ground in the blood of the enemies of their GOD.
Am I wrong.?i
