Question for my fellow Muslim Americans

No idea what you are trying to get at... How do you feel about people who aren't homosexual being called non-gay?

 

Why is a person who is not gay referred to as "straight"? So does that mean a gay person is "crooked" aka wrong, aka hellbound? (Yeah I know that the argument would be to properly phrase it as heterosexual and homosexual) It's just semantics.

Same with the "non-Muslim, non-Christian" thing. It's like shorthand for speech or written communication rather than saying everytime "Those who are not Christian, Those who are not of the faith" etc. etc. Another example are those who are semetics, and non-semetics, they aren't of that branch of people. Does that make a person inferior? Not at all (Then again to some folks who believe they are "chosen people" or "God's favorite" maybe it does.)

It'd only be offensive or belittling if it was something to the effect of "incorrect" or something. It's just saying that you are not of that group. How else can it be said in a shorthand form?

I mean that's what prefixes and suffixes are all about; making things clear and concise rather than long-winded.

 

Inb4 D&D r****dation. Nvm too late. Never change clutchfans never change

 

uh oh, not liking where this is going....

 

the general notion/vibe amongst muslims is, of course, that they are better. They are taught that they are the best religion.

so naturally a lot of times, young children grow up pretty confused. they almost think that other religions are incorrect because of what they've been exposed to

 

As long as this thread is in the Hangout, it deserves this:

 

Well the same argument can be made with pretty much all the major religions (The Jews are Gods "chosen" people and favored over all other nations, Christians with their feeling of "accept Christ or be of the wicked/lost")

Anyways, that's what the D&D is for.

 

I was pondering between that and pork chops, what do you prefer?

 

Doesn't every religion do that? Christians think that they have the right religon..jews think they do...etc...

 

you're probably right.

but muslims are more fervent in that belief

 

There are christians out there that will be in your face and will openly condemn you to hell if you don't believe in Jesus Christ as your lord and savior. Believe me, living in college station I have seen plently when it comes to that.

 

hmmmm... pass

notice the posters in this (joke) thread that are taking it a bit too seriously

 

My favorite Muslim

 

have you met every muslim? every christian? every jew?..

how do you know that muslims are the only ones that believe that? or are more fervent in that belief?

 

because I know for a fact that muslims are told they are the only remaining religion that still contains the "original" word of god. untouched by man.

no other religion can claim that and hence, I know for a fact muslims are more fervent in that belief
