"That doesn't seem peaceful to me, but the opposite."

This persons IQ is off the charts. Genius level intelligence. Don't waste your time on an internet forum when that brain could be used at NASA or something. Go, for the good of humanity!

Yes I do realise my post was a not directly on topic but I felt I needed to make the comment; I think it still is indirectly linked to the topic: some Christian Islamophobes are making a scapegoat out of Islam while promoting Christianity. Slagging off one religion while promoting another is hardly an objective stance to take given the atrocities committed in the name of all religions throughout the ages.

Runner,
why are you in some way linking Islam and Buddhism? Islam, Christianity and Judaism share the same Middle Eastern roots- therefore are part of the same hoodwink of gullible people.

Evolution as a fraud? I realise it’s a bit off-topic here but perhaps I’ll go back to the evolution thread when I have time (and need a laugh) to see if you are able to explain fossil and tectonic evidence.

"The false religion of evolution..."
Evolution is a science, not a religion.
How is design obvious? The evolution theory exists because ID or creationism is based on faith, is illogic, unreasonable and doesn’t make the slightest sense.

Racism and evolution:
Evolution has only been deduced and evidenced by many intelligent scientific minds in the past 2 centuries.
Question to broaden your mind: How long has racism been around?

Nothing personal, but I neither have time nor interest to exchange emails about bible quotes. I’m sure Muslims could come up with excuses for the violence and sexism in their Koran as well if we cared to exchange emails about the Koran with them.

Do you believe that you’re a martyr?
You are having a two-way bet.
If you die (and we all must die) then do you believe it is because you are right and was eliminated because of your application of what you perceive as truth.
If you continue to live, then it is because your ‘truth’ has won out over evil.

Spendocrat,
Good on ya- you’re one of the few posters here who see a picture that goes outside the edge of a mainstream media article.

Hizb Ut Tahrir conference:

Even though this is a Muslim group which is ‘said’ by the media to be ultra-radical, there are no grounds to ban them from organising a conference in Australia.

Since we live in a democracy where people should be free to hold a conference and since there is no proof that they are advocating terrorism this demonstration is going to be useless.

All you Christian Islamophobes are being sucked in by the mainstream media; their coverage of this has contributed to the hysterical Muslim bashing evident on this thread and which pervades Australian society.

Why don’t you change course and demonstrate against our government, which is waging a murderous and illegal war in Iraq and Afghanistan. Their anti-terrorist laws make no sense and haven’t done anything to reduce terrorism.

Celivia,

I thought you might have felt differently given the really serious problems - including murder - caused by Muslims in Holland.

Perhaps you have really cut yourself off from the old country?

SPENDO... young pella... On another thread.. I referred you to this site "PROPHET OF DOOM" with some links..
well.. I've been digging into it a bit further and clicked on one of the links there.. "In the Company of Good and Evil". It turns out that the Site founder is one Craig Winn who co founded 'Value America' an etailing site. I got totally sidetracked from the Islamic stuff and engrossed in the story of corporate intrigue.. that link is in fact a E-BOOK.. very readable ..could not let it go !
Then..I did some searches of stories about Value America and came across many things discussed in the book. I tell you its like 'The Bourne Identity' but without the physical shootings.

Celivia.. your reluctance to discuss the verses you quote but fail to understand is tantamount to a closed mind and confession of willful ignorance :) sorry but it is. *pinch*. We can overcome your lack of understanding in probably 1 email. But I thoroughly recommend the Prophetofdoom site..it answers most which might arise regarding Islam.

FEEDBACK.. see what Muslims say to this site:
http://www.prophetofdoom.net/Feedback.Islam Its definitely "R" rated.

Have a nice rest all... can hardly keep my eyes open here...
nite

I followed the feedback link DB nothing new there it is clear that biggoted type of hate is what passes for education in some parts.
The insult talking of sex with ones own mother is pure gutter talk and nothing a person who uses it says is worth listening to.
We must understand while totaly oposed to these enemys of truth and freedom , good Muslims , while not as high profile exist.
