ttbn,

Islam is a religion by the very definition of the word:

“The belief in and worship of a superhuman controlling power, especially a personal God or gods.” (http://en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/religion)

Just what on earth you do you think a religion is? Or is this just an attempt to separate your beloved Christianity from Islam more than can be justified in reality?

While I think it’s a bit of a stretch to paint Hitler as a devout Catholic, it is equally a stretch to claim that he hated religion. Hitler expressed very mixed and contradictory views on both religion and atheism.

Josephus,

Even if everything you said were true (and not all of it is), creationism is still nonsense and evolution is still a fact.

Deal with it.

good post Jospehus. That is why Darwinist and Islam have so much in common. It is also why so many of the left despise the truth (Word of God).

' Even if everything you said were true (and not all of it is), creationism is still nonsense and evolution is still a fact.'

get over it AJ the fake news has been uncovered. No longer can you just recite something often enough to make it true. Your explanation of beginnings is a fantasy and certainly has no true science attached. Evolution is a fraud and unless you are only the gullible and deceitful ones still hold to such a fairytale.

Got any evidence for your claims this time, runner? No? Didn't think so. Just more assertions. Come back to me when you've got some actual evidence.

Any year now...

Dear CHERFUL and Bazz,

I've come across a website that might be worth a
read:

http://www.quora.com/Religious-Tolerance-Why-do-people-often-consider-Islam-to-be-an-intolerant-religion

The questions surrounding Islam will continue to perplex
us for quite sometime. I don't think any one
of us condones the violence that extremists and Islamic
fundamentalists practice. And I fully agree that we
should speak out and condemn those vile actions.

Should we tolerate the religion of Islam?

Definitely not the extremist fundamentalist version that
promotes violence.

However, having said that -
I think that I've made it quite clear that I don't
believe in generalisations about an entire religion or
group of people based on the actions of extremists within
their faith. I am hesitant in judging an entire group of
people based on the actions of a few.
At the same time - I do respect your concerns.
And fully understand them.

I feel that our hope lies
in the Muslim people (men and women) who
continue to challenge the injustices in their
nations and localities. As mentioned earlier, whether it is
the work of Ifrah Ahmed to end FGM, Asma Hanif of Muslimat
Al-Nisaa, who works to help battered women or the
organisations like BAOBAB in Nigeria that focus on
Women's Human Rights within the statutory law paradigm.
Our hope lies with getting Muslim communities on side and
working together
to make changes happen.

As Ayaan Hirsi Ali stated quite clearly, and as I quoted
earlier:

"All cultures are flawed, but if we want to aspire to a
society, whether it's on a national level or on the
global level of individual rights and the respect for
human rights, then we have to criticise those cultures..."

And work with the communities to enable changes to take
place.

AJ Philips,
I do not believe in 6day creationism. I stated Hitler was impressed with Darwin theory, so sought to breed a super race. For him all other races were less developed.

cont'd ...
