I am an atheist like you, i dont defend any religion nor i have favorites. I critizise all religions unlike you that just dont allow critizism of Islam and almost suggesting that i am an Islamophobe, so be it, i am an islamophoe, i am a jewphobe, i am a catholiphobe, i cant digest religions, some have good values others dont but at the end is just a belief system from the stone ages. WE ARE NOT IN THE FUCKING STONE AGES.
You just want to be in the higher 'moral' standing and that for today standards is trending on defending islam, you are defending something you dont know and neither understand to virtue signal.
Numbers prove you wrong, you can be outraged all you want.
Reality sucks buddy, thats how life is.
And for what i pick from your response i think that either you are a muslim acting as a atheist, or one of those fake social network 'ultra progresive trendies' that pander for attention to those weird ideologies that were birthed in eco chambers by ignorance.
And the trend of defending islam ignoring all the violence they have created all over the world history and that if you start reading you will understand that is WAAAAAAAY WORSE than any otherr religion. Just blows my mind away that how retarded people are.
Here let Gad Saad explain it:
You have no idea what Islam is and what islam has done through out the history of the world.
Read history a little, and read actual present numbers of incest, pedophilia, rape, violence against females, violence in general, You will see that muslims are WAY more violent than any other group.
And if you think by defending Islam is going to buy you credit points with Muslims? HAHA you are soo naive they dont give a fuck if you defend them. If you are not Muslim you are garbage in their eyes.
Get a grip in reallity kido. Read some books, stop wasting your time in social media networks and get the out of your parents basement.
A bonus:
I know Muslims, just as I know lots of people of different faiths. The religious people I know are not extreme, they do not espouse the views you suggest they do, and they are genuinely nice people. I'm not here to defend Islam for no reason, I'm here to defend my Islamic friends from being unfairly attacked by an ignorant fool like you.
So no, I'm not some social justice warrior here to defend something I know nothing about, though I'm also not an Islamic scholar who can read aloud the Quran from memory. Instead, I'm someone who knows and has met many people of different faiths, including Muslims, and I can say with utter certainty that they are just like any other person on this planet - they are no different to you or me.
If anyone needs to get to grips with reality it is you - we live in a globalised and diverse world, so it is necessary to be open and accepting in order to not resort to unwarranted hatred. Hatred of people who commit awful crimes is acceptable; hatred of a religion on the basis of the actions of individuals is unacceptable.
You are talking about people, i am talking about religion. Islam is not compatible with your way of thinking and west values. Read up more about it.
If only Muslims would change Islam from their violent bigoted and sexist roots from the stone age and bring it to the 21 century that would be great.
But these absurd teachings are in the core of the Islam, and the mayority of muslims follow them. If you are here to defend the few that do not follow those teachings and want to live their lives in peace good for you but you cant be attacking someone for pointing out issues on their belief system just because you know a few of muslims that do not follow 100% of their teachings and you feel bad for them. You should be telling THEM to do something about their own religion.
If the muslims that you know are not following those teachings that Islam preach. Out of comon sense or because of what ever then Islam have actors that can start to change it from its core, they are the ones that should start changing Islam.
According to Islam those muslims are not muslims, they are infidels and deserve nothing but death.
I made this post to point this issue about children sexual abuse issues that need to be adresed because its in the Quran, the Prophet was a warlord marreid a child!
You have there a narrative where the prohet is a warrior that gives fanatics the excuse to be violent, and also married a child, that gives an excuse for the same.
Now for comparison, imagine if Jesus was a warlord that married a child.
What would you think catholics and christians would think it will be okay?
Catholic religion changes over time so does christianity and judaism they adapt to evolution of humanity.
Islam does not. At least their 94% mayority not. 1 billion muslims in the world.
There are plenty muslims that are normal, even artists, rappers, famous sport players, look up Dave Chappele, i love him and hes muslim.
But this post was not targeted for THAT MINORITY THIS IS TARGETED TO THE BIG 94% MAYORITY IN THE WORLD.
Wake the fuck up.
