@sebi99p Well then it would appear the Koran is full of contradictions-
"God never advocates sin. Are you saying about God what you do not know?" 7:28
"You shall not kill - God has made life sacred - except in the course of justice. These are His commandments to you, that you may understand." 6:151
"You shall not kill any person - for God has made life sacred - except in the course of justice." 17:33
"We decreed for the Children of Israel that anyone who murders any person who had not committed murder or horrendous crimes, it shall be as if he murdered all the people. " 5:32
"If they leave you alone, refrain from fighting you, and offer you peace, then God gives you no excuse to fight them" 4:90
"If they resort to peace, so shall you, and put your trust in God. He is the Hearer, the Omniscient." 8:61
“do not aggress; God dislikes the aggressors.” 5:87
"There shall be no compulsion in religion" 2:256
"You have your religion and I have mine" 109:6
"Had your Lord willed, all the people on earth would have believed. Do you want to force the people to become believers?" 10:99
Of course it is... It's a religion. Not a single religion is consistent. Problem is, although #notall muslims practice those violent verses, a good majority do support them. There are pew research studies to support my claim. And unfortunately it is the only religion on earth that consistently manifests itself this way. And because of this, people will retaliate and will go overboard. Like mr croat. But he is not wrong, his solution is stupid, and again bringing it up in this thread was irrelevant.
Agreed religions are inconsistent but to claim it's "the only religion on earth that consistently manifests itself this way" is extremely false!
Like you @sebi99p I don't generalize the many! As if all Jews are followers of the worst scripture on earth for an example, and I seriously question your claim of "a good majority do support" violence when referring to Muslims, "pew research" are easy to manipulate
I'm sorry, but how many hindu terrorist attacks have you heard about? Or how many christian honour killings? Or how many buddhist rape gangs?
All of the world religions have reform and condemn the use of such actions. While Islam does still condone them.
I'm sorry, I'm sure there are really nice muslims around, but they need to speak out against this. It's not up to the world to reform it, it's up to themselves. Otherwise the rest of the world will defend themselves, and at some point get fed up and decide to just get rid of them all, kinda like happened in Bosnia.
@sebi99p So basically when a Muslims is a paid mercenary, you believe he's doing it out of Islam? Also Muslims condemn violent acts of terrorism all the time!
I'm sorry but you're clearly bias as no regime or group has killed more people in the last 70 or 40 or 20 years to the point 2nd place is nowhere close then the "Christian" nation of America!
Do you believe I should generalize all Americans as you do to Muslims?
Americans kill sorldiers, people who are prepared to die. They fight governments. They don't target pop concerts or christmas festivities. How dafuq do you put an equal sign between 2 countries at war, and terrorist telling you they kill in the name of Allah that target civilians?
Is that really your stance @sebi99p? Americans invade and murder any resistance and that includes any defending their nation or home! Would you like me to share statistics of civilian causalities from American hands? Including when they've bombed weddings, schools and hospitals!
Would you like me to share documented cases of America and Israel funding, training, giving medical aid and even commanding terrorists?
You seem like a person far too intelligent to be so gullible to what war propaganda is (shame really)
Of course they made civilian casualties. It is war. I don't agree with the war with Irak, for example, but they aim for enemy combatants. There will always be civilian casualties. No weapon today is 100% precise. But they don't specifically targets where it's known that only civilians are in.
So if there is a world hegemon, I'd much prefer it be the US, rather than Saudi Arabia or something.
