    Quran & Hadith are random garbage?

    http://quran.com is an anti-Islam website?


    I gave you the opportunity to prove me wrong, but instead of addressing the question, you decide to resort to the personal attacks.

    This is why I stayed out of the D&D for so long.


    Challenge is still there if you want to take it up...

    This is simply innacurate.

    Tepid condemning isn't really worth a damn.

    Extremists are gaining traction in large part because of passivity on behalf of non-fundamentalist Muslims?

    Why, it was already answered in this thread... because even if there isn't agreement with terrorism by most Muslims, they are not going to stop it because..... the terrorists, extremists and thugs are still ultimately Muslim and.... a bad Muslim > a non-believer.

    They do condemn it. There is a difference between a bad muslim and an extremist that is considered NOT Muslim. ISIS falls under this category. Most all the preachers of Islam have spoken out against them. Sadly, the mainstream media doesn't really show this as news on prime time, its much more fun and easier to get hits when you show a Muslim evil man, rather than the normal everyday Muslims.

    How is your personal ranking?

    1) Wahhabi Muslim
    2) Sunni Muslim
    3) Shiite
    4) "Bad Muslim" - examples?
    5) Extremist that is not considered Muslim = ISIS = since he is not considered Muslim, nothing to be embarrassed about


    6) Animal
    7) Pig
    8) Infidels like me
    9) Israeli Jew

    ?

    Where does Hamas rank? Somewhere between 1) and 2)?

    Please feel free to re-rank and correct me. From your posts, it sounds like that is pretty much your view of the world.

    At the very least, you are clearly distinguishing between Muslims and non-Muslims, as your post above shows.

    Not surprising, you have to basically view anyone in their custody as being dead already. It's sad that the US essentially created IS by not helping the more legitimate secular Syrian rebels early in their struggle against Assad before they were essentially forced to turn to anyone that would help them....which happened to be terrorist groups and Islamic fanatics that eventually took over the movement altogether creating IS, along with leaving a mess in Iraq instead of staying and keeping the peace like we did in Germany, Japan, Korea and basically everywhere else we've ever had a war. Bad policies (no matter who's fault it is) lead to bad results.

    Fair point, Sure IS would have formed in Syria even if we stuck to an isolationist position, but Saddam would still be in power and we know he'd gas them if they entered Iraq so the problem would be contained to Syria.

    These monsters are not human... How could you commit such acts, as part of "following" of your faith...

    So many centuries behind...

    What happened to that Jordanian pilot. Incomprehensible how one human can do that to another human. Terrible.

    Well, the Jordanians are quick to go ahead and make the decision to kill their trade chip. It's scheduled to go down tomorrow morning.

    Good for them. The only thing that's sad about this is that the IS POS will get a much more humane death than the one their pilot got.

    I just read that Jordan uses hanging, so while it won't be as brutal as the way the Jordanian pilot went out, it's not going to be a picnic.
