Suspected Jihadists hack man to death in London

Critical thinking and reading comprehension.

 

But I expect and immediate and vehement condemnation from every single Christian. If they don't, how am I supposed to know they're not part of the WBC or at least sympathize with them? I don't know about you, but I'm not willing to take that risk.

 

Ooh, quotes! You sound like you definitely know what you're talking about. Tell me more.

 

English Defense League? Neo Nazis? Some militias?

 

And educated, in a lot of those countries the imams are the primary source of information. Its like a twisted Truman Show. People generally accept the reality presented to them.

 

Direct quotes and blatantly obvious.

Oh wait, am I interpreting them incorrectly?

 

Exterminate non believers must be a metaphor for love thy neighbor.

 

Don't know, its out of context. How many ways do people interpret the bible?

 

Wow.

 

You're not interpreting them at all, that's the issue.

 

I don't have to when the message is so crystal clear.

Please, I'd love to see you interpret those messages.

I'll wait.

 

Thanks for waiting.

Given that things are so crystal clear, I'm sure that it's fairly obvious that the Zohar is part of the Kabbalah, which is a mystic interpretation of the Torah, which is, and I'm sure this is already crystal clear, of the Hebrew tradition.

Swing and a miss. Moving on.

What with all the crystal clarity, I'm sure I don't even need to tell you that Surat al-anfal (Qur'an chapter 8) was written about the Battle of Badr. Even more crystal clear must be the translation. I'm sure you've done the work and given a good faith interpretation of the passage and didn't just lift the first thing you saw on ReligionOfPeace.com. In case you want to re-check your crystal clear analysis, go ahead and go to this website (which I'm sure you already know about)

There you will be reminded that this quote is NOT an imperative, that it is God saying that HE will strike terror into the hearts of the unbelievers so that the Muslims could more easily defeat them (during the Battle of Badr, the one this sura was written about.) I'm sure this mistake was purely accidental, given the crystal clear nature of it all.

 

Mystic interpretation....

Convienent.

 

god dammit it was green font the whole time

 

So they might have been shouting Allahu akbar because butchering a man is something good?

Interestingly enough, those Americans spend billions trying to minimize injury and death to non-combatants, while Islamic terrorists purposely maim and kill women and children.

So a bunch of Saudis were so outraged by their poverty, they flew jets into the World Trade Center? Being poor caused the two jerkoffs to set off bombs at the Boston Marathon? Judging by how long they were in the US, and the fact that they seemed to live pretty normal lives (apart from taking flying lessons, maybe), poverty as the motivator doesn't work for me, at least in these cases. But I'm pretty sure they were extremist followers of Islam.

Go Blazers

 

The ignorance of Atheists, Muslims, and Christians astounds me...

 

Don't these threads that turn into athiests vs. christian debates get old?

Its like the same day that VanilGoril found out Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny weren't real, he also found out God wasn't real and needs to let the world know.

 

Well they were butchering the man, weren't they? So obviously they thought it was the right thing to do. Allahu akbar is kind of like "Fuck yeah!"

Truth. Doesn't change anything though.

You're right. Terrorist that the media covers most of all are extremist followers of Islam. The mujahideen training camps in Afghanistan were famously filled with rich Gulfis who felt they needed to perform jihad. The terrorist acts that those extremists are a tiny minority of terrorism as a whole. But it is what we hear about the most (surprise, surprise.)

The vast majority of Islamic terrorism is in the Middle East perpetrated by Muslims on Muslims. Every suicide bomb that goes off in Baghdad or Kabul or Islamabad is done by a desperate kid who poor, hungry, under-educated and disenfranchised. Radical Imams suck these kids up and use them for their power games. They use a widely rejected interpretation of Islam to convince them that self sacrifice is the way to salvation and martyrdom. Sure, they may shout Allahu akbar before they pull the cord, and they are probably told they'll be greeted in paradise by however many virgins. But in the end, it's not about "Because the Qur'an says so." The root motivation is poverty and the humiliation of not being able to earn a living, provide for their families or get married. Radical Islam is the catalyst that allows these kids to vent their frustrations. To them, everyone is the enemy, especially moderate Muslims.
