saying simply "all religion is bad" is superficial to the point of worthlessness. It brings nothing to the debate.
Clearly today, right now, a time that actually matters, some religions are worse than others. Going on about the bloody crusades doesn't change this.
I was specific in my comparison of religions, Luhe. I committed a lot of effort to be clear on that. And l absolutely am not even referring to the Crusades. That you name the Crusades suggests you are not at all familiar with the hideous killings done in England when even not believing in the transubstantiation could set you over a slow burning death. ( you know that the friends of the condemned would sometimes chip in to buy more wood so that the fire could burn the hotter to bring the end more quickly). How about that?
l maintain that that the Quran and the Old Testament in effect are the same. That is specific. I said in other posts that there are people who reject the ugly parts and see the good. I connect those individuals with the Yousefsai family. Especially when it was said that moderate Muslims would simply hold the legs of a victim the as an extreme Islamist beheads them.
We can't save victims of Christian zeal; we can't save all the Jews who died in Nazi concentration camps. We can only learn from history, not go back and change it.
I am not suggesting a time machine to undo the past. I say that we Christian-derived countries had to make laws to protect ourselves from our own violent religious past and now should discern that Islam is the OT come alive again. Predatory and intolerant with some within who are pleading for their lives. Brave people. In this way we reach back in time-truly we cannot info the horrors that our own ancestors witnessed.
Malala said she wants girls like herself not to be destined solely to serve a husband and bear multiple children. But if Muslim girls have not enough champions to save them from such a destiny they will be married off impregnated and their sons will burst the border over and over again. There must be strong measures that stop making it a religious war. That feeds the troll. Instead do as mr. Yousefsai did: name the enemy a violent patriarchy and fight all those elements. That worked with Christianity for the most part. We still have the religion. But it’s teeth and claws were filed down.
Education should be a priority and in Britain, British law for all.
Yes. We do agree, luhe.
I wish Tommy and Malala could meet - what have they fitted Malala up with? XD
I don’t get this. But something tells me l don’t want to .
