So Islam is a religion of peace

Not that much, but I've done quite a bit of reading about it to get ammo for debating with Christians.

I find they're not usually in the mood for a debate, at least not the more outspoken ones. Not what I would call a debate, at least.

I guess the real question is, why do we assume all Muslims are the same as their lowest common denominator, but don't do the same for Christians ?
People like to like to call Islam violent and dangerous because they can single out a few verses in the Koran or Hadith that say to kill infidels, but the truth is the Old testament is full of similar or worse commandments from God. In fact, some of these commandments have been used as justifications for the inquisition. Source[^] Jesus did say that not one "jot or tittle" of the law will pass away until after Armageddon. I think what it boils down to is fundamental Islam is a few hundred years behind Christianity as far as watering down their religion.

Actually, He said: Matt 5:18 "For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled." Parse Before A B will not happen Before C Is that an "AND" construct, or an "OR" construct? :confused: I have a belief, but you seem to have a certainty. :| Mind open like a rusty trap?

Most of the time they will either constantly make unsupported claims and pretend they are assumed to be right, or try to meticulously pick apart one small piece of what the other person said.

I agree that grief is grief, and that death and pain suck. But there is a large difference between blowing up a bomb in the middle of a group of civilians on purpose, and dropping one on a valid target, where there are civilians nearby, versus taking a head shot on a bad guy. I can see where you will say the dead won't see the difference, or their loved ones, but intent does count for something. But 'collateral damage' is a BS word for death and damage. Call a spade a spade.

No doubt you've heard the saying about one mans freedom fighter is another terrorist. The same could be said about targets.

Thats a very valid difference. I've no doubt the allied forces would prefer that sollution where possible but they're not shy about the alternative either. And fair enough, war is war after all but we did kind of pick the fight in Iraq.

Exactly

What he said was blatant disrespect to the people who are risking their lives, dying, struggling to maintain, for people like you and me. As if the those solders are the bad guys for defending America after islamics destroyed the twin towers and damaged the Pentegon killing thousands of innocent men, women, and children in the process. He actually gives sympathy for those scumbags.

Yeah, like, sometimes they'll sneakily call one thing another and refuse to explain their thought process. As if a faulty syllogism could ever pass off as an argument... :doh: *cough cough* Oh! What have I accidentally found here? :confused: IF 'materialism' is the truth about the nature of reality, THEN minds (or 'souls' if you prefer that word) cannot exist. BUT minds do exist. THEREFORE, 'materialism' (and 'physicalism,' and 'naturalism,' and 'atheism,' and 'agnosticism') is clearly seen to be false. It must be so easy to debate when your only aim is to impress yourself.

Um, no he didn't. He just acknowledged that we're not the only ones suffering. In fact, if you look at it properly, the innocents on their side are WAY more screwed-over. The militants and terrorists never deserve sympathy, but all of the people that they're hurting should be regarded with something more than hatred.

True, and Ilion and Matthew Faithfull seem to think they can win a debate just by frustrating the other person to the point of giving up.

Its their country(s), their people, their religion. If they can't maintain their own people then they will suffer the consequences. The simple fact is that is islam that motivates them to do these things, if they can't take control then they need to evacuate. Its their own fault, it sure as hell isn't non-islamic people's fault, or America's. Just think about how they treat their own women and children.

It's that simple, huh?

Damn right it is. Don't forget islam is filthy moldy shit to begin with, it does not matter if there are innocents. Its like being a child molester (mohammad) living in a society where that is accepted and you live with similar people, and expecting people to tolerate it because its who you are.

Yeah, you're right, innocent people should never be considered. Ever. Unless they're American, of course.

No, unless they are actually humans with a brain. They are not innocent.
So I guess innocence and right to live is based off where you're born?

It isn't where you were born, or what race you are, its what you tolerate and believe in. If you tolerate evil, then you are evil.
Ah, OK, I gotcha. If you're brutally oppressed and have no voice and no way out, you should die because you fail to step in and put a stop to all the nonsense.

Everyone has a voice and there is always a way out.

No you should die trying. Some things are worth dying for and I think ridding the universe of islam is worth dying for, that and ridding Earth of like Josh Gray and Christian Grauss';s personalities. The type of personality that puts us in a situation where we actually have to take drastic measures because the evil was tolerated for far too long.

Either that, or make them feel so shitty about the 'shit' they 'shit' out of their 'shitty asses' that they change and apologize to everyone because they worshiped a filthy 'religion' and a pedifile.

The media is pro islime. I don't know how you think the media is dishing out anti-muslim propaganda. Is it because muslims are blowing shit up and crashing planes into skyscrapers and they actually report about it once in a blue moon? Would you rather they not report about real news?

Why don't you read a little of the queeran and then tell me how you feel?

You CHOOSE to BELIEVE that.

Now that you've enlightened us all, I am really scared, because we has lots of Muslims in SA, and even one in our company. Whereto shall I run? Your dick-headed, white Utopia? ;P
