Bolas 5 #51 February 1, 2015 wmw999 Trying to conflate all American Muslims with them because they share a stated religion is like conflating Baptists with the Lord's Resistance Army. Wendy P. Once fixed, do agree. But we can't ignore those in our country who agree with or support what the terrorists are doing, regardless of reason or religion.Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh.

wmw999 2,121 #52 February 2, 2015 Just as we can't ignore gun owners who might have evil intentions. They are far more likely to impact me, after all Wendy P.There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Darius11 12 #54 February 2, 2015 wolfriverjoe******I think the issue is one of submitting themselves. Obviously, kids have no choice. But if an adult wants out of Halaka they can get out. Sharia has been different. If in an area where Sharia is the rule you must submit to it. Practitioners of Sharia advocate for its imposition on people. And if a 14 year old girl speaks out against it then she risks being assassinated. Really in all of the Muslim world? Or the tiny segment you watched on the news? It's reality in Afghanistan. There have been a large number of women assassinated. Usually for advocating for women's rights. Or for advocating education of women. Afghanistan is a desperate place that has had nothing but war. To try to use Islam as the explanation for horrific acts is inaccurate. It would like saying look at all the problems in Africa..fucking black people! I am not saying that religion does not act as a motivator but so does nationalism the root of the action is desperation.

How does one get arrested by having 'evil intentions'? Someone can have all the intent in the world and be a complete pussy and incapable of performing such actions. What if the person had 'evil intentions' and they just had a circular saw without the guard...and perhaps a nail gun. Would they still be as scary then?

Darius11 12 #56 February 2, 2015 BolasDo you have any examples of Jews restricting or denying basic education of their own people? All Jews???? , All Muslims??????? Again with the ALL. Which is always my main issue. I know ISIS is nuts, I know the Talabon Suck, i know we have bad people, but the ALLLLLL There are Jewish rabbis who suck infants cocks, but i would be an ass hole to say all Jews suck infant cock. Do you understand this. Some how for most of you Muslims is always an all or nothing subject. WHY? What is it you guys are missing Seriously. Can i use the Priest child fucking to generalize all Christians? Is that ok Can i use the Troops who have been convicted of killing and raping innocent girls in Iraq as all American troops rape and kill innocents? So to answer you, yes i can find many examples of horrific behavior by Jews Muslims Christians and Scientologest but that still does not make generalizing them not retarded. Sorry Bolas i am sure you didn't not mean it that way but i see that shit on here. Muslims all billion of them.

Would they still be as scary then? If he's holding that running circular saw an inch from your throat, and screaming that he will kill you? Yes, you'd probably be scared - and you'd probably support him being arrested, too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As an engineer he may be pretty smart, but as one who recounts the historical record he is an idiot with a very blinkered view. Christians were just as savage back in the day as the invaders from the east, and he doesn't take into account the fact that medieval Europe was in a constant state of war within, too preoccupied with itself to bother anyone on the outside. Be humble, ask questions, listen, learn, follow the golden rule, talk when necessary, and know when to shut the fuck up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

masterblaster72 0 #72 February 10, 2015 Bolas I was looking more at the number of battles and timelines Which is why he's a simpleton as an historian. There's a lot more than just numbers to history -- tons of context and nuances to take into account that requires years of study. He conveniently neglects to show the timelines and numbers reflecting the battles Christians waged on each other during the constant war that was medieval Europe. If he did, the conclusion would be obvious: armies in those times were simply motivated by loot and power. It's a human thing -- not a Christian/Islamic thing. If you want an interesting highly qualified historical perspective on Islam and its origins, I strongly recommend this documentary -- it's fascinating and a real eye-opener.
