despritdan   241 #37 Posted January 3, 2018 The root cause of the problem is the way Islam maintains its power base which is by brainwashing entire races from birth with lurid, medieval religious nonsense then bullying and intimidating them to keep the faith throughout their lives. It's totally against our values of freedom of choice but they get away with it because everybody's scared of them. In any large population, the majority will be stable and sensible but there'll always be a minority with flawed personalities and when they're subjected to this brainwashing, they become terrorists. The majority of Muslims are sensible but terrorism will always be part of the Islamic package. The sensible thing would be to not allow any of them into western countries as they aren't born with 'moderate' or 'extremist' stamped on their foreheads and the moderate majority are a Trojan Horse for the extremists, but its too late now.

The only difference now with our "christian" country is nobody is a real christian anymore, were losing that religious aspect, most people who regularly attend church are the oldies who have gone since the 40s, 50s etc Edited January 3, 2018 by nikki-red masked swearing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

taxman   12 #46 Posted January 3, 2018 No you didn't mention religion but I'm just saying what I said anyway. That's one good thing religion does. I tells us what's good and what's bad. It also brings comfort to people who need it. And yes I agree, it can be used as a tool to justify hurting others. It isn't just one thing but many.  Rubbish. Nobody needs a book full of ancient whitterings to know good from bad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Robin-H   11 #48 Posted January 4, 2018 not quite as harsh as the punishment specified in the bible  I fear you misunderstand my point.  I did not ask for the penalty for apostasy under the Quran, but asked what it is under Sharia Law.  Sharia Law is practiced today in Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Brunei, Qatar, Pakistan, United Arab Emirates, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, Sudan and Mauritania (and applied in parts in Indonesia).  In which countries could I be put to death for leaving Christianity, or Judaism?  For the record, I dislike all religion. I think the bible (particularly the old testament) is an absolutely ghastly text filled with death, destruction and revenge. The difference is there are no countries that apply its principles as a code of law, nor any there any that would wish to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
