Here is a small sample for you, from the koran, about killing the infidel...{Various unpleasant Koranic quotes follow}
Do you really imagine that I am ignorant of the unquestioned fact that the Koran contains vile and offensive crap? Of course I know that. You seem to be labouring under the misapprehension that anyone who disagrees with you is ignorant, a moronic and childish attitude.
The point is that most Muslims have the common sense to ignore those passages, mostly because there is an expectation amongst Muslims to respect the laws of the land in which they live.
You ignored my point regarding the equally sick and offensive portions of the Bible. Do you suppose that all Christians are dangerous maniacs? Because the Christian holy book is chock full of incitements to dreadful acts.
I don't imply, I KNOW all muslims are subject to the koran, those who remove themselves from the koran, are no longer muslims and subject to death. Get going granmaw; inform yourself.
That is one interpretation yes. The fact is that there are plenty of other interpretations of the Koran within Islam. Which variety of Islam do you happen to hold up as being the one true Islam? Sunni? Sufi? You are trying to paint millions of people as being zealous fanatical murderers, and when it is pointed out that most Muslims are not like that, you just say that they are not real Muslims. Ridiculous. If in your tiny mind, the only real Muslim is a member of Al Qaida, I suggest that you go and join them, because you seem to have a lot in common. You both think that any Muslim who is not a killer is not a real Muslim.
What terminology should we use to describe the millions of Muslims who are not murderous loonies? Fortunately, it is not u to you to decide who is a "real Muslim" and who is not. That kind of thinking is the preserve of lunatic religious fanatics. Is a person who does not believe the entirety of the Bible not a "real Christian"?
As I said before, there are thousands of Muslims where I live. Do you suppose that they are all out slaughtering the unbeliever? Of course not. What the Koran says is just as irrelevant to the every day lives of Muslims as the ravings of the Old testament are to modern Christians.
So far as LDS and JWs are concerned? I really don't care what opinion you hold about them.
Then why are you posting on a debate board? The only parts of this board that is not composed of the opinions of others are the posts you write yourself. If you don't care what other people think, why don't you just sit at home, typing your mental-masturbatory drivel to yourself.
Hey, granmaw, you never did tell me what you think of the saqqara bird.
That is because I actually have better things to do than pander to childish bullshit. However, if you insist...
Saqqara birds were irrelevant to the thread in which you first mentioned them and they are irrelevant to this one too. The only reason you brought them up was to try and appear clever and interesting, a sadly doomed ambition. What exactly do you expect to achieve by quoting obscure and irrelevant facts? We can all play at that game you know. You will find that almost every member on this board will be able to mention obscure facts, about which you know nothing. I personally find
Flammulina velutipes fascinating. Off you trot and look it up. Of course it has nothing to do with anything that we are talking about; the same as your saqqara birds. Please don't continue with this pathetic and childish troll behaviour. All it achieves is to make you look like an idiot.
