I'm not saying Islam should be wiped out. What I'm saying is the world would be a better place if It did not exist at all. Stupid hate filled idiots
It should be wiped out.... in a slow non-violent death through education and rational thought. Religions peak and religions fall. No one worships the greek gods anymore. It is reasonable to believe that one day Islam will die a slow non-violent death. The other possibility is Muslims killing other Muslims(Something many Muslims are great at) to obscurity. Let's hope the former possibility occurs.
I think there will be a European 9/11 one day, something on a much larger scale, like Islamists blowing up a nuclear reactor. Something like that. That will eventually lead to the destruction of Islam as we know it today.
it should be pointed out that this magazine has made fun everyone, muslims, catholics, priests and the pope, a bunch of different religions. and the killers are associated with which group? deep rooted ideology issues here that in parts of the world is supported/sponsored by leadership. i've always said if you care about your community you have the responsibility to not let others hijack it. if you don't then it appears that you condone their acts and sit silently while others do the dirty but necessary work. clean your own house before others have to, you surely won't like that.
Someone posted that in the other thread, which for some reason is in the Hangout: Don't believe for a second that there aren't hundreds of millions of Muslims who openly or secretly applaud these murders.
How many people have been "saved" by Islam? Such has our very own Hakeem? If violence is the measure of the world being better, then just look at how many deaths Christianity has caused in history. Your post is straight up offensive to Muslims.
If you going by lives saved, then you should be a SUN worshiper. SOL rises and sets each and everyday on a wonderful predictable schedule and is responsible for all life on this planet. SUN worship, it's the way to go!!!
You haven't translated any of this to the benefit of anyone but a) it's Twitter, a beautiful open box where controversial statements are made on a dime, and where 9 people isn't a crowd: see Gamergate. b) Which one of these fine people, including the indignant repliers @VinceR75 ("You're an idiot, it's freedom of expression, it doesn't warrant an attack at all.") and @MrAzura ("Poor girl.") are 100% verified Muslims? and c) Cairo (AFP) - The Arab League and Al-Azhar, Sunni Islam's most prestigious centre of learning, both condemned a deadly attack Wednesday on a Paris satirical newspaper. http://www.ibtimes.com/moderate-muslims-use-jesuischarlie-condemn-charlie-hebdo-attack-paris-1775986
How exactly has he been "saved"? Blah blah blah crusades...blah blah...but Israel...but Fox News...blah blah blah. Do you have your Kalashnikov ready then?
Oh yes, of course they "condemn". But what did they do in 2006 when Charlie Hebdo was first part of a controversy? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charlie_Hebdo#1992.E2.80.932010 The goal then was the same the murderers pursued today: To silence any critical or mocking voice against the totalitarian ideology of Islam and their pedophile prophet. Of course they will come up with lip service. But they are two-faced. What they could not achieve through the courts, they believe that someone did the dirty work for them today.
so if a country instituted slavery today, then it would be ok because look at how many slaves the US and others had in history? violence such as this has no place in modern society no matter the source.
--these are not the same organizations to my knowledge. Are you saying that any group of Muslim represents all Muslims anywhere? look, I get it. I'm upset too, but your line of emotion-tinged reason is exactly how extremists win. They're not going to beat value systems by killing a few people. They're going to beat value systems by changing them through violence that poisons the thoughts and actions of people everywhere.
That guy said that the world would be a better place if Islam never existed. I'm arguing that it's a dumb statement. You can't isolate Islam because every single religion has had it's down moments in history. If you want to say the world would be a better place w/o religion, then that is not a dumb statement.
What difference does it make? Some Muslim organizations sued Charlie Hebdo for publishing cartoons. Some Muslims murdered practically all of Charlie Hebdo's editorial team. Some Muslim organizations provide lip service and say that this was a criminal act (while the German Muslim organization is mainly concerned in their statement about whether this will lead to a backlash against Muslims, by the way, already portraying themselves as potential victims, as they like to do all the time).
What poisons the thoughts and actions of people is Islam - we have seen it again today. Stating that as it is does not mean the critics' thoughts are poisoned.
--so the answer to my question is no, but it doesn't matter because the only thing that matters is your perception of how others feel and act?
Ridiculous. Tried to stay away from social media all day because I was cringing each time I saw a muslim friend saying: "once again we are going to be martyr's and disrespected blablabla". Yeah no **** once again its always the same. Each week I read some stuff like this. And as soon as you have this conversation and they are wrong they scream "racism!". I live in Europe and we let muslim's wear there burka's everywhere, we let them build their mosque's in our cities, basically we let them do everything they want. And yet they still say they aren't accepted. WE are accepting them in our societies. I wonder what they would say if we were to build thousand of churches in the middle of their public places and stroll down the souq's shirtless and in swimwear. (Which is exactly what happened hundreds of years ago during the crusades and was proven to be terribly wrong). They would scream "you can't do that! you need to respect our culture!". Well, do you respect our cultures when you come in Europe? I don't think so. This is crazy. And to think that these guys are most likely going to run away. And if they get caught they will chill in prison cells and watch tv for the rest of there lives, being heroes in the prisons they will join full of r****ds like them.
To Muslims who view Islam as the most important aspect of their lives and have a literal interpretation of the Quran and the Hadith aka what constitutes a "true Muslim" yes blasphemy of the prophet is punishable by death. There are three types of Muslims: secular Muslims who do not have a literal interperation of the Quran and the hadith, picking and choosing Islamic morality that is compatible with their secular morality while ignoring parts that do not and don't view their religion as the most important aspect of their lives; Muslims who view Islam as the most important aspect of their lives and carry out their faith in a literal interpretation to a point of violent action; and Muslims who view Islam as the most important aspect of their lives and have the same literal interpretations as the second group of Muslims but allow that second group to perform the acts of violence in their place. A large portion of Muslims that live in Muslim dominant regions fall into the last group while a large portion of Muslims in the U.S. fall into the first group. The video below is an example of the last group of Muslims. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/tpeIS25jhK4" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
