Yeah no that's total bullshit.
As a believing Christian, who's also taking AP World History (which involves a [B]lot[/B] of religious study), it's really not difficult to point out that what he's saying is true.
[QUOTE=Lachz0r;47088997]why is it that when christians do bad shit it's always political but when muslims do bad shit it's because their religion is evil/stuck in the stoneage ?[/QUOTE]
Stop setting up strawmen, I don't think their religion is evil or anything, but if you really want to go into this then you could say the same thing I said about the crusades for a decent number of recent conflicts in the middle east (except for maybe ISIS)
Has the fundamental right gone so bonkers that they're willing to overlook the crusades and the inquisition? What next, the holocaust? Oh right, they already generally overlook the holocaust of the native Americans.
Historical revisionism is an ever flowing toxin of the right these days.
BloodRayne is obviously too intoxicated by his own prejudices to realize he is trying to argue something that was never in question
I believe the grave crime he continually commits is known as the "tu quoque"
and really bloodrayne, we dont give a fuck about your rampant islamophobia. The fact that muslims killed people doesn't actually make less true the fact that christians also killed many, many people in the name of their religion. The only difference between a christian extremist and a muslim extremist is opportunity. The thriving of Islamic extremism is a result of un-policed imperialism, now and then...
so it's not morally right to accuse islam of being "the terrorist religion"
when the average christian guy's lifestyle was down in the shitter back in the good ol' medieval times and the golden age of the middle east was raging, can you really blame christian extremism for basically overtaking the majority of europe and forming a legitimately recognized powerbase? imagine if every country in the middle east treated ISIS like they were the Papacy
[QUOTE=spazthemax;47086991]He's not comparing in an effort to excuse IS, thats the misconception that bible thumpers are mad about. He's comparing to try to drive home the point "It's not Islam's fault guys, any religion can do this shit"[/QUOTE]
Because it was the dark ages. All education had to be done face to face, word of mouth. I am communicating instantly with people from across the globe. Science is easily accessible and can disprove just about everything attributed to God.
[QUOTE=TheFilmSlacker;47090693]I live with a person who says Islamophobia is necessary if we want to keep our country safe from terrorists.
"It's islamorealism, not racism."
These are words that actually came out of a person's mouth and he believed every fucking breath of it.
People are fucking ignorant, man.[/QUOTE]
Racial realism is still racism, and hopefully you or they move out soon enough so you don't have to live around stupid.
Would not be surprised if he browses Stormfront.
[quote]Some Republicans were outraged. “The president’s comments this morning at the prayer breakfast are the most offensive I’ve ever heard a president make in my lifetime,” said former Virginia governor Jim Gilmore (R). “He has offended every believing Christian in the United States. This goes further to the point that Mr. Obama does not believe in America or the values we all share.”[/quote]
Be offended then dickhead. It's not like he was making shit up

Man, and I thought I hit the moron jack-pot with a co-worker that claimed the dinosaurs died in Noah's Flood, not from a cosmic impact, and when confronted with the knowledge that there's not enough water on the Earth in any shape or form to flood the Earth to the levels described in the bible he said "well what happened was the Earth was hit by a meteor or comet that kicked up a huge dust cloud, shielding the Earth from the Sun's rays, which made it cool and shrink".
It's sad that an opinion in the US is surreal. It's not right for someone to say that most religions have been involved in some bad things, but it's right if they have a high regard for these religions. If only opinions were always accepted in the US without comebacks/hostile comebacks/etc. The US would be a better place, IMO(At least socially).
Has everyone forgot about The Troubles in Ireland?

Also, while Islam may be the biggest violator today, there was a time when the Middle East was the most advanced place in the world. Psychotherapy and algebra were a few inventions that came from the Middle East's golden days before Islamic radicalism slowly ate it up. I say this because I believe that religions always pose a danger for this.
[QUOTE=MrEndangered;47087324]I didn't 'forget' anything. The events I listed contained lots of different ethnicity and religions. Why do YOU have such an agenda?[/QUOTE]
I wanted to make awareness that it was not just black\jews\asians who have had genocide against them. You did not demonstrate Christian or white genocide at all in your so called "diverse list"/ Christian genocide is still happening in the middle east on a huge scale and you are ignorant enough not to include that either, i guess that reveals your agenda.
