Racist joke.

What is the difference between a #$%@!#$ man, and a park bench?
A park bench will support a family.

Insert whichever racial stereotype you first think of, then tell yourself you are not even a little bit racist.

Oh, dearie, dearie, me.  I see the thread has degenerated into the usual Islamophobic bullshit.  And all 'cause I asked the question where the figure of 9% came from.   Tsk, tsk. people do get upset so easily 'round here and act so childishly.    Roll Eyes


Good grief you sanctimonious repetitious goat.

The only BS sprouted on the subject of Muslims & Islam is squarely in your court.  Roll Eyes

Mentioning what Muslims believe in, without understanding what they actually believe in, is insulting, Augie.  Prejudice exists here, in a big way, as exemplified by Yadda, Herbie, FD, Baronvert, etc.    

If we set that as the criteria, then we can never contest any issues of any religion, because the goalposts get shifted from what the official texts of their religion says, they MUST believe, to what they actually do.
This is convenient for religious loons because they can chop and change what they say to suit themselves, at any time.

I reject to allow that loophole for the religious twats of the world, and say I will go off the books, and where applicable, officially sanctioned pronouncements from accepted representatives.

Still waiting for protesters on the beach condemning people collecting shellfish to eternal damnation.
Do that or stop picking on gay people, or edit your silly bloody books.


That's exactly what people of the mindset of Bwian & Peccar et al want. To shut the conversation/debate/discussion down.

They major in the qualification of being terminally offended, apologists & self loathing race haters.

All I can suggest is that you aren't interested in fairness, you're just interested in persecuting people because they follow a different religion to what you consider acceptable.

When you accord the same respect you appear to, to Christianity, to Islam, you might have a case.  That you want to condemn people not because of what they believe but what you believe they believe is reprehensible.    Roll Eyes

We're not persecuting anybody, nor do we want to. Everyone should be accorded the same respect and legal rights.

So, should I accord the same respect to Democracy and as to Fascism?? Because that's what we're talking about here? We're talking about ideology.

Are you struggling with the words or the concept, I respect NO religion, and I openly condemn and ridicule them all. You may be the only person on this forum that has not picked up on that pretty damned obvious fact yet.

"Most historians"?   No historian has documentary evidence that Christ existed.   No historian worth their salt goes any where near JC because of that.   We have, as I have pointed out, one source - The Bible.   Roll Eyes

Just as Christians believe The Bible is divinely inspired and eternal, Augie.   Lots of similarities, despite all the evidence for both religions the accounts of the Founders were "doctored" to make them seem better than they necessarily were.


Divinely-inspired is very different from the 'eternal and absolute Word of God'.


Really?   Both come from God...    Roll Eyes

Really?  Funny how it is directed against Muslims, Augie...   Roll Eyes

Here's a question: does the New Testament condone wife-beating?? And don't quote me the 'wives, submit yourself to your husbands...'
[/quote]

The Bible does not prohibit husbands from beating their wives, Augie.  In fact, it appears to accept it as normal behaviour.   There are numerous passages within the Bible which are as bad if not worse than the "wives, submit yourself to your husbands" (Eph 5:22-25).  Colossians 3:18 echoes that sentiment "Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord."  All suggest that women are subservient to men.

To you any criticism of Islam is 'persecution'.

Shut up, your point is idiotic. Make a better argument or Forf. Stupid bint.

Persecution doesn't just have to be about shipping people off to concentration camps, Augie, persecution can be about the continual questioning of a religion and more importantly, it's worshippers.   Do you question Christianity as much or as often?  How about Judaism?   Buddhism?  Hinduism?  And so on and so on.   Do you think it's fair that Muslims who have committed no crimes, done nothing illegal are continually being asked what are really stupid questions about their beliefs all the time?  Really?

No, we discussing a religion.  A belief system that does not rely upon facts and evidence but on belief.   Islam is not a political ideology.   It is a religion.    It is no different to Christianity or the other religions in offering instructions on how to live one's life.    Roll Eyes

I don't think that's unfair to ask questions. Shouldn't we know what people belief? It's true that many Muslims may not do anything but may support terrorism or terrorist organisations. I'm not saying that all Muslims are closet-terrorists, but in today's environment, it's certainly rational. Would it have been wrong to do the same in the 1930s when the Nazis were in power?

This is where you're wrong: Islam is a political ideology as well as a religion. It is total in its belief. It governs all factors of society. To deny this is to deny reality. Christianity is not a political religion, nor has it been; 'render unto Caesar what is Caesar's...'

There's a huge difference, Brian. The Quran is the actual literal Words of God. The Bible even the Tanakh were written by various authors over a period of time. They might have been divinely-inspired, but this is quite different, as you're smart enough to realize.

Being subservient does not mean permission to hit a person, nor does it equate to a direct command from God. Come on, stop virtue-signalling and get with reality.

I've told jokes about Christianity many times: the fact that Jesus rose from the death by flesh is absurd; or the fact that the Holy Spirit descends upon people... Haha... What a joke.

Use of the term 'persecution' to cover the fact that most of it is only in the 'feelings' of those 'persecuted' is not a valid way to discuss issues.

I've asked before - HOW exactly are Muslims persecuted here in Australia?

Throwing a pig's head on a mosque site is an insult - not persecution.

Methinks that the over-use of hyperbole to describe often mundane acts of idiocy has muddied the waters too much over the past forty years...

Christians, Jews, Hindus and Buddhists in the main do not create the need for scrutiny.  Not many genuine adherents to any of those religions engage in violent crime - they belong to an ethnic group, not a religious group.

HOWEVER... some Muslims commit and/or plan crimes in the name of their religion........ and make a point of publicly offering violence to any who do not accept their way 100%.

What's not to scrutinise?

Do you imagine tht rabid Christian anti-abortionists are not under scrutiny?  does that equate to their being 'persecuted'?

Do you imagine that Buddhist type criminals are not under scrutiny?  Jews?  Etc, etc, etc...

What makes it different for Muslims, with a proven track record of some terrible deeds, so special they should not be scrutinised when planning or carrying out crimes?

Because they feel they are being victimised because they are not allowed to carry out crimes?

Talk about children....
