    PROGRESS IS SAUDI ARABIA: First female TV presenter dressed as a ninja

    Oh, yeah right. I'm not kept on a lead, I'm permitted to engage in activities, I'm not traded nor silenced, and I most certainly have rights. And all the muslim women I know, which happens to be quite a lot, would agree with me. Wholeheartedly.

    PROGRESS IS SAUDI ARABIA: First female TV presenter dressed as a ninja

    Women are items? No they are not. And they are most definitely not pets.

    Suicide blast in Somalia kills ministers, doctors, students

    But if people's main exposure to muslims are via the media, and all they hear are instances of terror and violence, wouldn't it be correct to assume that they would also come across the fact that Islam has over a billion followers? Does that mean they would assume each one of that billion are...

    Suicide blast in Somalia kills ministers, doctors, students

    Zionist political violence - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Zionism is also besides the point. Like I said before, yeah, ok, a lot of terrorists are muslim, but that's largely because their countries are in a mess. Political goals are a main cause of terrorism worldwide. When countries are...

    Suicide blast in Somalia kills ministers, doctors, students

    No, you're wrong, I can blame people for making sweeping generalisations, because many muslims are law abiding, contributing members to society. I don't see why that is so hard to believe. And if people think that you do drugs and are a communist, does it mean you actually are one? No, it...

    Suicide blast in Somalia kills ministers, doctors, students

    You misunderstood me. I'm not trying to justify what extremist muslims have done, because I think all terrorist acts are horrible and should be condemned. Its just tiring hearing people go on and on, about how just because some muslims are terrorists, it means ALL muslims are terrorists and...

    Suicide blast in Somalia kills ministers, doctors, students

    You said priests don't rape in the name of religion, but what about Hindus that practice Sati? What about Zionist Jews? <--- in the name of religion. Roman Catholicism played a huge part in the Rwandan genocide. Maybe these people didn't use planes, but I'd say these are pretty violent acts...

    Suicide blast in Somalia kills ministers, doctors, students

    From the way you speak, I'm betting you've never read the Quran, just pulled random quotes out of context and are satisfied they preach violence. If you really want an accurate picture of what the Quran is about, I suggest you read all of it. Then tell me how violent it is.

    Suicide blast in Somalia kills ministers, doctors, students

    The Quran doesn't preach violence. I think I've said this a billion times here, muslims were persecuted when the Quran was revealed, so God made it permissible to fight in the name of defense.

    Suicide blast in Somalia kills ministers, doctors, students

    Well you are acting like only muslims commit acts of violence. How about I give you a list of my own? Rape of choir boys by Catholic priests, the Hindu practice of Sati, Zionist Jews etc. And I'm sure if an atheist goes nuts and does something horrific, he/she isn't going to do it in the name of...

    Suicide blast in Somalia kills ministers, doctors, students

    Wow, this is interesting. Such strong criticism of Islam, based on the actions of a very misguided lot. You know what? I admit it. There are bad muslims out there. Yes, they have done bad things. Terrorism is horrible and should be condemned. But. That does not mean blindly criticising the whole...

    Suicide blast in Somalia kills ministers, doctors, students

    Actually, a lot of Islamic leaders go about this "damage control," Keysar Trad ring a bell? Except when muslims condemn terrorism, it doesn't get much media coverage. On the other hand, when some random Islamic leader seems to even hint at supporting a terrorist organization, the media has a...

    Suicide blast in Somalia kills ministers, doctors, students

    Source for that little bit of info? That's right, you won't be able to come up with one, because you just came up with "millions" from the top of your head, right?

    Christian Uganda proposes death penalty for HIV positive gays

    No, because in modern day times, pedophilia is relative depending upon the society in which you live. For example, in one society the age of consent is sixteen but in another it would be seventeen. But that does not mean that one who chooses to engage in sexual activity with a person who is...

    Christian Uganda proposes death penalty for HIV positive gays

    You can't just say, "They are muslim. They are doing bad things. Therefore, Islam teaches bad things." Because that formula would apply to any religion. At nine, the marriage was consummated, and she was above the age of puberty then.

    Christian Uganda proposes death penalty for HIV positive gays

    The majority of muslims don't agree with the Taliban or Saudi Arabia's drving and voting laws, as they are clearly wrong. And the Prophet did not marry his wife at six. They were married when she was past the age of puberty.

    Christian Uganda proposes death penalty for HIV positive gays

    Are you serious? Islam is very clear that a woman is equal to a man in terms of duties, rewards, punishments etc. I consistently read that Quran, and I have never seen anything to suggest otherwise.

    Christian Uganda proposes death penalty for HIV positive gays

    Um. That's not what I said. Islamically, a woman is not worth half as much as a man. Islam actually promotes equality between the sexes, as Allah repeatedly states in the Quran, that a muslim enters heaven based on their piety, and not anything else.
