>>
>>32717247
Well I suggest you read both. The Qoran has a very different approach to the omni present god compared to Christianity. I think the Qoran would be worth reading. I don't have time to read a lot of stuff but I read some of the Qoran and I thought it is not that much of a rule book nor is it a mythology book. If you read the Qoran and then read a bit of Sufi stuff like Ibn Arabi or Mesnewi you can have a deeper understanding of true Islam.
>>
I think Muslims in the Middle Ages and later invented machines that I cannot comprehend, so I cannot say anything overtly islamophobic.

But I must admit I feel ill-disposed towards Muslim religious taboos, as they go against my personal tastes.

I am an atheist and I believe any and every religion is at its' basis anti-democratic and pre-modern. A believer always worships some divine reflection of earthly kings, so I believe the ballot and the pulpit are antipodes.

I think religion is better than that. Stuff like the Bible and the Qoran are only rule books to those who are really stupid, like most of the world. Those people have to be educated with rituals so that they behave. That's the first level of the religion. The second level is understanding things beyond this world. I think atheists are thinking too literal and they don't consider the option of being a part of the divine collection of energy.

I don't have a problem with it.

Growing up in the Bible Belt, it took me a while to figure out all of Christianity, isn't Baptist. And likewise all of Islam isn't, Wahhabi.

Up until that all religions seemed crazy, now just the ones that shun a more mystical approach to the universe seem weird. As they tend to make more sense than the full automatic view of the universe, where Western Atheists have taken the Protestant view of the world, threw out the notion of a God. Yet still feel like they are living in on Artifact, in a dumb universe. Oneness tends to agree with my rational a little more, not I the ego or "soul". But the entire process that is "me" in relation to the universe. We all happen together, symbiotically. We imply one another, like up does a down.

Islam is barbarous and violent. When muslims draw comparisons to the Bible, nobody ever points out that Christianity itself had a reformation. It went from barbaric toward virtuous humanism.

Islam is just medieval trash that propogates slavery, monarchy and anti-intellectualism.
>>
I think it's cancer. I'd like to believe I'm not biased - I'm not religious whatsoever, and I don't like Judaism either, and am rather neutral to Christianity.

Religion as a whole is fucking stupid. However, it's also relatively harmless, at the end of the day what matters is how its followers take it.
After all, all religious books have retarded archaic shit written in them like stoning, lashing, xenophobia, etc.

HOWEVER:
As I always say, the big difference is in how it is applied by each religious group in its life.
The worst an "extremist" Christian could do to you is protest very loudly in front of you.
The worst an "extremist" Jew could do is charge you more than he would a Jew.
The worst an extremist Muslim could do is behead you. And then your wife, your kids, piss on your country, then leave.


Islam is entirely incompatible with the modern world, largely because of the fact that its followers are complete imbeciles.

Islam as a way of life does not reinforce positive values like productivity and modernization.

Islam basically gives you a blank slate in this life, it does not encourage you to be productive in this life. Just do as they say and please Allah and get into the next life where your real life starts, essentially. It's what makes it such an easy escapism option for retards, neets and other such untermensch, like the Sheikh. [may allah rest his soul]

But again, the only things you can name are from God knows how long.
We're talking about Islam's place in the world -today-.

Today, Muslims, despite being almost a fifth of the world's population by now, are contributing less than a hundredth of what smaller religions are to the world.
Today, Muslim dominated countries are the bottom tier of the world.
Today, the worst crimes in the name of the religion committed around the world are in the name of Islam.

But honestly, it's more about the non-productivity factor.
I wouldn't care so much about Muslims/Arabs getting all hurka durka beheading if they found the cure for cancer on the side, really. Because while extremists are a small minority, unproductive, lazy, stupid, welfare queen Muslims are a majority.

Islam is like a time machine. We can see how were retarded and backward people in the middle age in Europe. Hopefully Christian have evolved multiple time to fit with our modern society. Islam not. That's why when Pope Francois said something like "God is not a wizard, evolution and big bang are fact", Muslim keep behead people who don't believe like them and unallow women to do anything.

Islam is an interesting religion, but most Muslims are impossible to live with (especially in a non-Muslim society where 90% of them automatically become douchey to "distinguish" themselves).

Most muslims are annoying, hateful, too proud, pervasive, whiny, unstable, always trying to convert others, always bringing conflicts where peace was standing (males and females as well, maybe females are even worse). The problems especially arise when they're too many -- when they become a mass. Individually they're often decent and pleasant; some of them were the most helpful and reliable people I know. Also they're often quite humorous because they have strong values, while white people educated with "tolerant" speeches have weaker values thus look offended about everything ("b-but that's RACIST!!!!") while you'll always find a muslim to crack good jokes about niggers, sex, whores in niqab or whatever.

He (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: What is this, O 'Aa'isha? She said: My dolls.

Islam advocates murder, pedophelia, anti-intellectualism and oppression. That would be ok if people didn't follow these examples, but they do.

You don't make sense. We ARE taking in today's context. People today generally accept that murder is bad, women are generally equal and fucking 9 year olds is bad.

According to this brilliant intellectual, you became an atheist because of the colonial zionists:

Also how strong is atheism in egypt ?
>>
>>32722844

That's a stereotype though. Only .0001% of Muslims bomb people.

Its like saying "when women are feeling alienated they go home and buy a ton of cats, when men are feeling alienated they shoot up a shopping mall". Yeah sure, men are more likely to be mass shooters. Just like Muslims are more likely to be terrorists. But its a tiny tiny slice of men and a tiny tiny slice of Muslims.

Also if you learn about what Islam really teaches it teaches justice for the oppressed and helping the poor.

>>32722893

That is just one guy, most Muslims wouldn't ever kill anyone. The thing is that a lot of people there are governed by their religion, so apostasy is the same thing as treason. Treason has a death sentence in a lot of places, maybe not France but it does in the USA. So we are no better on that front.

Muslims also consider Jesus Christ to be the messiah and a great prophet, who taught when it comes to death penalty "he who is without sin throw the first stone". If I met the imam I might remind him of that.

I don't go to Mosque. There is a mosque being built 20 metres away from me so I think of going there. I am not all muslim, I am a deist, and I think Sufism has a great lesson to teach. That's what real islam is too, sufism.

That is not one guy, that is Sheikh Qaradawi, probably the most influential scholar in Sunni Islam.

But to answer your question about most muslims and the apostasy thing:

>>32723417

Not very many. How many Westerners think bombing the Middle East is a good idea?

Fact is that both Muslims and non-Muslims can think of violent stuff. But you shouldn't generalize and Muslims living in the West definitely shouldn't be lumped in with Muslims growing up in a warzone who might be tempted to bomb someone. Why even bring it up? Its like lumping in all men as mass shooters.

Should we compare it to the percentage of christians/budhists/chintoists/jewish or whatever bombing people ?

I can assure without a doubt that muslims kills singlehandly more than all other religions combined.

>Also if you learn about what Islam really teaches it teaches justice for the oppressed and helping the poor.

Just like Christianity right?
I also know that Islam teaches that you must cut your son's prepus, stone an unfaithful wife, kill a non-believer if you can't convert him and marry your 10 years old daughter to your 54 yo brother.

>>32723599
Why should there be? If you are an open minded individual you should be able to observe and analyze the real messages. For example there are many stories in these books. The story of adam and eve, The Lot, Moses and his people when he came back from the mountain etc. All of these stories are to be analyzed, there are messages to be delivered.
>>32723609

25% of british muslims say 7/7 were justified.
>>
>>32723567

Yep, because they are in the Middle East which has governments based on Islam. Leaving Islam is the same thing as treason in that case.

Notice how most of the Muslims OUTSIDE of the Middle East do NOT support it because in that case, it is no longer treason. Its why separation of Church and State is so important because when the Church IS the State, people cannot choose their own religion. It happened in Europe as well during the Protestant reformation./ Protestants killed Catholics and vice versa. "Treat others as you want to be treated" got thrown out the window because the King said to be Protestant and if you weren't Protestant it looks like you are disobeying the King. (Or the Pope said to be Catholic).

Even then those percentages are even of those Muslims -who believe in Sharia law- which is the strictest form of Islam...so of the STRICTEST form of Muslims only a minority believe in killing apostates, with majorities only in those places where Islam is the same thing as the government.

Jesus fucking christ man. Do you realize what you're saying? I've met people who live in terror because they're afraid the fucking state will find out they don't believe in god and fucking execute them. and you're defending that ? really ?
Considering apostasy to be treason is what leads to shit like this:

So a minority of French support ISIS? Probably they are immigrants from those warzones. Most Muslims see ISIS as wrong.

I addressed apostacy/leaving the religion in >>32723909 also that is only Egyptians Muslims who believe in Sharia Law, the strictest form. And it makes sense since for people in the Middle East, the government is entwined with the religion. This is a major issue which causes a lot of deaths since people have to follow the religion of the government. One of the principles the USA was founded on was freedom of religion because they saw how much fighting it caused in Europe.

>>32723768

>Should we compare it to the percentage of christians/budhists/chintoists/jewish or whatever bombing people ?

Should we compare the % of men who shoot to the % of women who shoot? And then say this makes men all evil? Pretty sure that would make you a sexist, same as this makes you a Islamophobe.

>Just like Christianity right?

Yes in fact they follow the same Jesus Christ. I think you need to meet and talk to real Muslims instead of getting your info about Islam from shady websites, youtube videos and FOX news.

No. They don't support DEATH PENALTY but they definitely condemn violently abandoning Islam, even in Western countries.

I don't defend it but that is the end result when you don't separate Church and state....when the Church IS the state then yes, apostasy is treason. (Actually I guess in this case its called separation of Mosque and State but same general idea). The key there isn't that Islam is evil, just like Christianity wasn't evil in the Early Modern times. They key is to separate the Church from the State and make it so that people can choose their own religion. This is why religion is doing much better in USA than it ever did in Europe.

Also how would someone find out "you don't believe in God"? This makes no sense. They will read your mind? Tell those people "living in terror" to calm down. I was atheistic for 7 years before I decided to become a Christian and even my family didn't know. Let alone the President of USA.

Europe isn't being destroyed.

They convey the meaning better and their rhymed prose is in better meter. … By God what you say astonishes us!

So only a minority of Muslims believe in Sharia law in Egypt? Earlier poster tried to pass off Sharia Islam as ALL Muslims in Egypt and he wasn't even true of most. Let alone all.

Egypt is a very Middle Eastern nation, where religion and government become synonymous. I never met a Sharia Muslim in Michigan and yes I have even been to Dearborn one of the most Muslim areas in the West. I even sat next to a Muslim woman for a class and was wearing a cross and we got to chat all the time.

>>32724587

>We're talking about islam here. Comparing a religion with your men vs female fantaisies is ridiculous.

Its the same exact thing. Prejudice is prejudice, and it makes you feel the same way it makes other people feel. So should we compare the % of men who shoot to the % of women? I bet more men shoot than women and children combined. I'm trying to teach you empathy.

If you are a Christian, treat Muslims how you want to be treated. That is what Jesus taught. If you are non-religious, remember that not too long ago, you would have faced prejudice in your country as well. If you are Jewish you REALLY need to remember that not too long ago you would have faced prejudice. (Israeli Jewish people need to remember that when they look at Palestine Muslims).

>>32724657

It shouldn't be. I believe in Freedom of Religion. However, that can only come when you don't make religion political. We saw this in Europe back in the olden times every King ordered a different religion and if you disobeyed the King you would be beheaded. Nowadays, in the Middle East the governments are twined with Islam. Turkey is one example of one that ISN'T twined with Islam and guess what? Only a small minority of the Sharia Muslims (the strictest form) believe in the death penalty. I can only imagine its smaller in the USA.

Europe has more extreme Sharia Muslims than the USA due to poorer immigrants coming from more warzone areas and feeling alienated in their new homes.

Yes there is. Sharia is considered the strictest type (no pork, no alcohol etc).

No, according to my logic, Muslims are not bad because they don't all murder people. Murderers are bad, regardless of religion. Nice people are good, regardless of religion. Why bring religion (or gender, or race) in there unless you just want a reason to be prejudiced?

A minority in some of the countries. A majority in others.

49% is a minority number. If 49% believed in death for apostates, that means they're the minority, right? That's the problem. You have to also consider the number of people, not just minority/majority relationship. 49% is too much. 10% is too much.

>>32726652
What you're describing is mainstream Islam. Sharia is the legal system derived from the sum of Islam's holy texts, the quran, the hadith and the biography of Mohammed and his companions.
The definition of apostasy in Islamic thought is denying the existence of god, the truthfullness and finality of mohammed's revelation or and more importantly elements of the sharia which are backed by holy texts.
In other words, being a secular muslim (what you call nonsharia muslim) is a hard position to sustain in the face of people who consider you an apostate and would want to kill you.
An example of that would be secular opposition leaders who were murdered in Tunisia the last few years by islamists.

Yes in the middle eastern nations where religion and the state are intertwined, where apostacy is essentially treason against the government. We have death penalty for treason as well. Thankfully our government has separation of Church and State and we get free choice. This means most Muslims over here will not support it.

>49% is a minority number. If 49% believed in death for apostates, that means they're the minority, right?

Yes. Seriously, why do you think its okay to condemn ALL of the Muslims based on the beliefs of the minority? Why not just disagree with people you disagree with? Why do you need to generalize to ALL Muslims? Sure, 10% is too much....why bash the other 90% for that 10% though? Even if it was 90% I would be careful not to say that they are all Muslims. Let alone if they were 10%.

Except its not. Beheadings, stoning and other punishments are carried out by local tribes too, whether or not they have governance over that area or not. That's what the Taliban did. They imposed Sharia law in moderate areas and doled out punishments accordingly.

Let's be clear here, this isn't treason against government. It's treason against the religion.

I'm not. I'm saying:
1. Islam is oppressive, has barbaric laws and promotes violence, slavery and rape

We don't have time my dear turkish friend. Look at the middle east and the world right now, so many nations are bleeding because muslims want to impose sharia in the parts in which they reside and recreate the old empire.

We have many countries that are basically dying (Somalia, Yemen, Syria, Libya, Iraq, Pakistan) as a result of this ideological push.

1) Is wrong, no Muslims I know of support slavery or rape. A tiny minority maybe support violence but then again, so do Christians and atheists (small minority).

2) Is maybe right, but think about where there is a lot of warzones....the Middle East. There is disproportionate number of Muslim terrorists because there is a disproportionate number of warzones in Muslim areas. In Europe only a very tiny % of terrorist attacks are Muslims. (Pic related).

3) And still many Muslims do condemn terrorism, people just don't listen to Muslims or talk to them about THEIR feelings they just focus on what Fox News, or other biased sources say what Muslims think. Instead of talking and getting to know and even (gasp) befriend a real Muslim.

I see it as more violent than Christianity. Not for intrinsic reasons, just because Muslims [unlike Christians, Orthodox and Protestants] still take their fairy tales seriously.

The Quran is just a collection of blah blah blahs, as the Bible; you'll find one or another nice stuff in both, but drowned in an ocean of piss.

You can find "deeper meanings" in it in the same way you can find sheep-shaped clouds.

I think it should be gone; but only because, seriously, I want to see religion gone. We already have enough reasons to kill each other, religions add yet another. However, I don't give a fuck about the believers themselves, as long as they DO NOT ANNOY ME.

>Point is that if you generalize ALL Muslims for what only some do?

I don't i is just that a very high proportion of muslims is quite radical and insufferable.

>What do you think of men "as a group"?
i know what you are trying to say, men commit most of the crimes so... yeah, i understand but the VAST majority of men aren't violent criminals, i don't have that expirience with muslims; at all. And i'm really not kidding my sister, my friends, I, we all talked about moving to Canada, because the situation is getting out of hand here in europe, these people will be our downfall.

The very fact you preach separation of Church and State and not, say, one being enforced by the other, is a sign that you don't take your religion seriously enough to consider it "the only truth". Mind you that, when compared with lots of modern Muslims, both you and Henry VIII would look "casual" in your beliefs.

Another thing that popped up in my head now: the role of individualism in modern Western societies, something relatively recent that didn't affect most of the Muslim world. This has a huge impact in the view of the religion, so while we Westerners see it more as "private affair", they see it as a good reason to bring on violence.

>no Muslims I know of
Anecdotal evidence isn't scientific. Just because the muslims you know behave in one way, doesn't mean all muslims behave in that way
>A tiny minority maybe support violence but then again, so do Christians and atheists
You have no evidence for this claim, which means its complete bullshit. Previous posters provide tons of evidence supporting that muslims believe in death for apostates/infidels, etc.
> but think about where there is a lot of warzones
And why are there a lot of warzones? Someone has to make war, it doesn't just spring up from nowhere.

>There is disproportionate number of Muslim terrorists because there is a disproportionate number of warzones in Muslim areas
So during the Vietnam and Korean wars (where both countries in their entirety were warzones), why were there no Vietnamese or Korean terrorists?
> people just don't listen to Muslims or talk to them about THEIR feelings they just focus on what Fox News
Are you kidding me? Muslims get air time ALL THE TIME! Just watch some of these videos: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=muslim+debate
>Fox News, or other biased sources
there is no such thing as an unbiased source. MSNBC is one of the most biased. Fox news gets shit because internet posters are younger and tend to be more liberal
>talking and getting to know and even (gasp) befriend a real Muslim.
Again, I'm not arguing against muslims as people. I'm arguing that the problems we're seeing come from the ideology of Islam and the people who ascribe to that ideology. I have muslim friends, all of which are moderate and great people.

I do consider my religion to be the only truth. And I am not casual one bit. I am more strict than probably most Muslims or Henry VIII.

Religious freedom then.
