  Why do Christian nations think they can assimilate Muslims into their communities , does Islam attempt to assimilate Christians in their communities ?

  by smiddy in

  islam /muslims today are what christianity was centuries ago , the two beleif systems are like oil and water , not to be mixed .

  christians are not tolerated spreading their infectious disease amongst muslims, in islamic countrys , and harsh penalties apply for them doing so in muslim countries , including the death penalty.

  stonings , whippings etc.. on the other hand christian nations are very tolerant of muslim extremists who incite hatred and violence on their own territory , and they get a slap on the wrist and say dont do it again .

  The women I work wit's are NOT seen as. possessions, they are independent and run their own businesses.

  They run for parliament.

  they don't wear the scarf.

  They are single women who own dogs..

  they are no more controlled than women in any other society.

  Why are you unable to see that Pakistan etc has many other cultural issues that have become bound up with Islam, so how can you so cavalierly discarded so many others lived experiences of Islam.

  It sort of makes me wonder if you actually made many friends in whatever Muslim country you lived in, NONE of the women I work with live those sorts of lives, NONE of them do

  JW refuses to provide wedding stationery to Gay couple

  i was outraged at this and had to post it.. http://jehovahswitnessreport.com/blog/jw-refuses-to-provide-wedding-stationery-to-gay-couple.

  i think she is a hypocrite and i bet she sells her invites to fornicators, or does she ask them if they are having sex before marrige, before she takes their money?.

  i was never like this when i was a jw, it's even more disturbing that she is going to ask her elders what to do.

  JW daughter! you go, girl!

  We all need our own path in life.

  for me, personally, I became an athiest, you found Islam.

  Both are valid choices.

  Dont forget, bad news, racism, fear and xenophobia will always sell papers.

  How to spot a sociopath - 10 red flags that could save you from being swept under the influence of a charismatic nut job

  Just some observations...

  I worked with a psychopath, the descriptions are spot on, BUT

  beware of natural news, the irony of them warning of nut cases is classic.

  Do you really think most people, organizations and governments are lieing to you all the time?

  and that there is far more bad in the world than good?

  Im a very sceptical person, and even I don't believe that....

  village girl! I have never read such sweeping statements in a single post before....

  let me get it right,

  I apparently am a man...

  and a muslim

  and don't know how to spell the koran/Quran.

  and ALL Muslim women must wear a uniform and are totally subjugated to men.

  in EVERY respect you're wrong,

  I work on a weekly basis with Musilim women who are NOT subjugated, they do NOT wear the veil, there is NO requirement for them to do so! except that of dressing modestly. Personally I think thats fine, so long as the men are also expected to do so.

  NONE of the MANY Muslim woman I work with intimately fit that picture. some are devout emough to have gone on the Hajj, I was honoured enough to be invited to the ceremony to welcome them back and received the zam zam water, and dates from Mecca, and something else, but my memory fails me.

  So next week, when I see my friends again, shall I tell them how oppressed they are?

  Several own dogs, so I need to arrange a stoning or a whipping?

  I am being facetious but I am attempting to make a serious point.

  ask Muslims Not from the Middle East or Pakistan what they think of them there, and the response you get is not complimentary.

  They share in disgust the same outragous stories on Facebook that you do. I see them daily.

  How do I know?

  because I ask questions regularly... and my Muslim friends handle it much better than the brand of Christians i grew up with would have.....

  my point is this! there are aa many differences in Islam as in Christianity,

  Now, for some nitpicking facts...

  you. need to be careful about how much personal infor you expect people to reveal on here, it is a safety issue.

  BOTH spellings of the Koran are correct. Only the other week I was criticized for using the Quran one.

  I would suggest that as an athiest feminist I have every right to have an opinion on these issues.

  Wondering what you guys think about child abuse...

  by bobert in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  to start off, i'm not saying this happens, or doesn't.

  i'm just a bit confused on the subject, and what you guys are always talking about.

  what exactly is it with the wt on the issue of child abuse?

  I can answer from first hand experience . I grew up in an uber JW step family. aside from the abuse I experienced, I witnessed child abuse first hand, with my own eyes.

  I was forbidden to report it to anyone except my stepfather, an uber elder , who basicaly was a pig.

  the abuser, who was of course a victim himself! went on to abuse many many many others.

  THAT was what brought shame on the witnesses...it was disgusting. The person who made me cover it up should have been charged over that. he would have been now.

  I too spend a lot of time in a Muslim country, but a mainstream one.

  I don't see behaviour like that at all.

  I have read the Koran, as I have read the Bbile.

  The Muslims I work regularly with are hard working decent honest people,

  the women own their own businesses.

  as to compare the time that Mohammed lived, I do hope you are willing to compare it to the BarbarIan's my Celtic ancestors were.

  What if you were a JW during WWII? Would you give in to Hitler and fight?

  by Brother Mike in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  so i pose this question to everyone.

  if you were a jw and lived in germany in wwii, how would you deal with the harsh cruelity of hitler?

  would you join his side so you may have a chance to live (meaning you'd serve in the miliatry and be on the front line) or would you keep on serving god and be executed?

  my favourite quote is.

  the past is a different country, they do things differntly there.

  Its impossible to answer what you would do in such a terrible situation, as for me, I have enough Jewish heritage for the, not to want me..
