  Fundamentalism Vs Radicalism

  by freemindfade in

  i had a thought this morning and i am putting it out for discussion.. when a christian is a nutjob we call them fundamentalist but a nutjob muslim is "radical".. doesn't one detach the person from the religion while one puts them square at the root?

  shouldn't we call radical muslim terrorists "fundamentalist"?

  Peace among everyone, or among "true" believers?

  They have scriptures that say things about how bad it is to kill an "innocent" man, however according to this same book, if you are not Muslim you are not "innocent". Or what about scriptures that encourage you to beat your wife?

  Radical/extreme Islam terrorism is a plausible interpretation of the Muslim religion.

  Radical: gives me more of a sense of perversion of an ideology

  Fundamental: more of a truest/literal interpretation of an ideology

  I believe saying "radical" Islam takes these action too far away from the fact that they are plausible interpretations and actions of the religion. It makes them seem separate.

  bad timing for the bunker video with all the police drama going on.. https://www.the-newshub.com/general/jehovahs-witnesses-promote-police-hatred-at-summer-conventions.

  recently one member after viewing the video material was triggered into climbing a bridge in australia and screaming about the ‘great tribulation” coming at any minute.

  see picture above..

  Why JW's Rave So Much About Conventions

  "it was so beautiful, we are truly blessed!

  now, they also plaster these affirmations all over social media, "this is the best life", “so blessed”, “best convention”.. why the gushing?

  have you ever heard anyone say, “mmmm it was ok”?

  I refuse to pose for, or post, any photos at the RC or CA. I've been asked more than once why I haven't been to the RC yet, simply because I hadn't posted anything online.

  Yep, same here.

  isn't that just awesome...
