Islam - Religion ?

[ftf]

That post of yours, decimos, reminded me of something I saw on a different forum a while back:

Let’s compare, shall we:


Cigarettes--------------------------------------Islam


Kills you slowly--------------------------------Kills you slowly, or quickly
A “no no”--------------------------------------A big “no no”
Rots your lungs-------------------------------Rots your brain
Makes you feel cool---------------------------Gives you delusional feelings of grandeur
Adds to life enjoyment-----------------------Sucks the fun out of life
Forced into it by peer pressure--------------Forced into it by a sword-wielding murderer
Increases premiums for life insurance-----Cannot obtain life insurance
Promoted by false advertising---------------Promoted by false advertising
You smell like smoke-------------------------You smell like smoke (always burning flags)
Fire hazard-------------------------------------Fire hazard
Always needs more victims------------------Always needs more victims
Camel used for advertising------------------Camel used during advertising
Used as currency in jails---------------------Uses you as currency in jails
Causes cancer---------------------------------Is a cancer
No longer allowed on planes-----------------No longer allowed on planes


You be the judge.

I was just feeling very blasphemous tonight, in the mood for a moo-ham-head cartoon....yes the dreaded cartoons of blasphemy

Blasphemy means insulting God, there is nothing insulting to God in the post you have just made, as far as I can see anyway.

[HiWarp]

I voted something else.  I tried to think of what else threatens a person with death if they decide to leave and all I could come up with was the mafia.  So I believe that Islam is a form of organized crime.

[Ultra Requete]

It's all above.

Blasphemy means insulting G-d, there is nothing insulting to G-d in the post you have just made, as far as I can see anyway.

I meant it in a sarcastic way, remember the "cartoons of blasphemy" 

[Sarah]

Thats sick.

I think those Cartoons were horrible. They  didn’t do any good.

[kellymaureen]

No what is sick are the ACTUAL beheading videos, this cartoon is FREE SPEECH, for which a dutch cartoon artist is now hiding from the 'religion of peace' after receiving death threats over a CARTOON, THAT is what is sick.

[Sarah]

Yeah the death threats are sick and so was the savage like response.

The cartoons were sick too, even if they were freedom of speech.

Freedom of speech, doesn't mean its something great.

I find it sick. You might not. It does not improve the situation of Islam, because it merely provokes worse things that are to be expected by the muslims. They didn’t argue any Islamic points of view either. They were pointless.

The beheading videos are not just sick but they are pure evil.

What about all of the islamic cartoons about the Jews?

It's very good question epecialy that this is from Sarah.

Those are just as bad. They represent nothing more then stupidity and jealousy from all the countries that allow these cartoons to  be published.

Laughing and being entertained by hateful, spiteful, offensive cartoons.....for me, is twisted.

[kellymaureen]

I find it to be freedom of speech, there are many things I find distasteful, but I recognize the freedom to say or draw it over my distaste. This one however is called satire, I understand what the artist is trying to say here,  first of all daring to show mohammad, secondly showing him at his favorite past time, beheading, except with the tables turned, and there is now a man in fear for his life for a mere drawing.
Ive emailed administration, if they feel this is offensive they are welcome to remove it.

I have seen offensive cartoons about Jews and Christians, much more than this even, yet oddly enough I didnt see one Jew or one Christian burning embassies or rioting or killing.....
If all it takes to provoke muslims to murder is a cartoon, that speaks volumes.

I personally thought that the danish cartoonns simply ponted out the truth of the matter. And considering that nothing can be done about the sick cartoons that are printed in islamic countries: http://www.tomgrossmedia.com/ArabCartoons.htm I think that it represented an appropriate response.

I agree 100% with Kelly on this; I still don't undurstand, I refuse to understand Why we shud be sensitive towards them in first place; epecialy after seeing this:

Thanks ultra!

[Sarah]

The cartoons were of Muhammed……..muslims live their lives by his teachings, they found it extremely offensive in this sense. There aren‘t cartoons  in the Islamic world which would show Jesus or Abraham -prophets which people follow- in a horrible way, since they believe in them as well.. Their response was like that of cave men savages.

Responding to insulting cartoons by muslim morons, with more insulting cartoons that would encourage even MORE foul cartoons about Jews and Christians to be published by even MORE muslim morons. Is this really that thoughtful ftf?

[kellymaureen]

Cartoons such as this are important because it is not a secret that muslims are trying to make it "illegal" to insult their "prophet" (and no one but muslims accept him as such), some islamic countries even brought the issue up at the UN.  This is a slipery slope, we are already seeing evidence of this here, with that young man being charged with a "hate crime" for putting a koran in the toilet, it is not illegal to deface a book, as long as you own the book, if it were a bible there would have been no crime (as it should be with any religious book)  In the US freedom of religion also means freedom FROM religion, we have no official religion here, nor does holland, yet muslims want "special treatment" for their sensitivities, it cant be allowed. 

[Sarah]

No it shouldn't be allowed but it doesn't take a cartoon to do this, it should be from the courage and strength of governments themselves!

Unfortuantly groups like cair are chipping away freedoms and looking to install sharia ....one of the goals is to silence any critisism or parody of islam, that is against our constitution, however they are finding ways around it.

I agree with you 110% Kelly.  I thought that the cartoon was fabulous.  Perhaps you can find more to post?  I think these cartoons need to be plastered up all over the Western World to discourage Mooslims from immigrating.  Funny, I don't think they can do any harm since in all of those despotic toilets, called countries, which make up the Mooslim world have daily anti-Israel,Jew,Christian,West cartoons, movies, "news" articles and other propaganda which there is absolutely no voice of condemnation by the "tolerant" but silent Mooslims.

Funny, posting the cartoons which depict the realities of Islam is somehow "offensive"....imagine that?

Yes its mindblowing....incinerating 3000 people in an office tower, not an issue, blowing up people on subways and busses, all fine, assorted rapes of children, cutting off hands, heads or whatever is handy...all good....BUT CARTOONS...oh the horror, oh the humanity....oh give me a break!

[kellymaureen]

Oh my yes.....these ARE outrageous!

Pictures, because of pictures, muslims caused millions of dollars in damge to buildings, rioted, killed people, and just acted like general morons....and because of this behavior, WE are supposed to NOT print anymore cartoons.....heres a suggestion, dont want anymore cartoons, stop bombing crap if you want to continue to bomb, rape, riot, kill, and act like uncivilized animals, then the rest of us get to mock your spiritual leader   cry us a river

[Wayne Jude]

Good one crazy Kelly!
