Are you an Imam? Plenty of mullahs would disagree with you. Having kaffirs attempt to define Islam is a non-starter. the best religious advice I ever received was from my Grandfather who counseled not to pay attention to much of what Holy Joes have to say, but observe very closely what they actually do.

I don't care what plenty of mullahs would say. Those verses are regarding conflicts and they're not examples of how Muslims are supposed to follow Islam.
Since there are similar verses in the Bible, are we supposed to assume that Christians follow them?
You don't have to be a priest or whatever to answer. You know the answer.
We have know all along that no matter what is supremacist, misogynist, anti-gay, anti-all non-islamics is preached in mosques you "don't care : / ignore it and try to claim that only peace is taught.Romero wrote:I don't care what plenty of mullahs would say.

I've met fundamentalist christians who believe everything in the Bible is the true word of God. fortunately there are not many of them, and they are more likely to bore you to death than to cut your fucking head off or blow up a Safeway. Ask a Muslim what they can safely ignore in the Qu'ran. Let's ask Extryleggs.

You can't safely ignore anything in the Qur'an. It would lose its value as a sacred text if you ignored even one dot of it. You have to accept--in principle--the entire text, right down to the last dot. But what you can TRY to do, is to interpret it and apply it in an 'enlightened' way.

Last time it was a couple of Muslim women passing by talking to each other and being happy. I had my usual chuckle thinking about how you haters would have me believe they're some sort of threat.

So true. If one wants to be a good islamic and get the rewards of being so, one HAS TO to believe every "perfect" word of dear allababy.Lochdubh wrote:extralegs2000 wrote:That is no way to base your faith; that is no basis.

Our Islamic correspondent has already obliged us by addressing Qwerty's post here. All Muslims have to do is heed the flaming and immutable Word of Allah.

Fortunately, most do not believe what they are told to believe .... or just pretend it doesn't exist at the moment ... and are no problem to anyone.
Unfortunately, the devout DO believe every word
More unfortunately, the devout are always the ones in power .... The leaders that control islam, that teach & preach islam to the others who are not necessarily so devout / pious.
That minority rule islam ..... always have ..... do TODAY ..... always will
Examples / proofs have been given many times over. New ones every day.extralegs2000 wrote:But might I point out another thing: glittering generalities cannot be responded to. Those are 'generalizations'. Calling Islam misogynist, supremacist, violent, intolerant, etc., etc., etc.
That is not an argument at all: it is mere 'fluff'. There can be no response to that. You need to be much more specific. Misogynist? Supremacist? When? Where? How? Why ? On what occasion?

Are you willing to just TRY becoming a Christian?

I realize that Islam had contact with every one of those cultures in history. Except I am hazy on the Italian history. I know southern Europe was Islamic throughout. But I don't know the specific reference to Italy.
The others I know to what you refer.
But might I make another point. This is a time when Islamic history will be studied, more and more. Just as British history was studied everywhere during the imperial period. Just as American history is studied because it is a superpower. It has become 'world history', now. Just as Roman history once was and still is.
Now it's our turn. You will be reading about us in your schools.
Get used to it.
