You're right. George Bush did it.

No one cares ... Why post ur political/social opinions on a topic that's super old and has not a damn thing to do with Destiny? Stop fishing for attention.....
-
Like others have said, this has zero, zip, zilch, nada to do with Destiny. This belongs in #Offtopic

What the hell does this have to do with destiny? Reported for terrorism
-
You are the one not following the koran. And to put it bluntly i dont understand how an educated person could be muslim if you know please explain it to me.
-
The Quran contains at least 109 verses that call Muslims to war with nonbelievers for the sake of Islamic rule. Some are quite graphic, with commands to chop off heads and fingers and kill infidels wherever they may be hiding. Muslims who do not join the fight are called 'hypocrites' and warned that Allah will send them to Hell if they do not join the slaughter. The more you know. No offense to you by any means OP but I have read the Quran, Koran, whatever. It does indeed state these things. While the Old Testament of Christianity states 'An Eye for an Eye..' it was changed once the New Testament began, there was new laws. I do not believe your book has such a change in it. So while you might not follow such teachings, you cannot blame anyone for assuming these types of things.
-
I don't think you're ever going to change these people's minds with appeals to logic, but here goes: There are billions of Muslims in the world. A tiny handful of radical Muslims, following a version of the Qur'an they twisted to suit their agenda, decided to incite terror by suicide bombing WTC. How does it follow that the remaining 99.9% of Muslims in the world are scrutinized for it? There have been public shootings in which the shooter believed God told him to act this way. Are all Christians going to commit that crime? Hell no. Minnesota has a pretty significant Somali community, so I see this prejudice all the time, even in my own family. It's cowardly, unfounded, and ruins human connections. Can you imagine the things we could achieve if we didn't hold prejudice or contempt for our fellow man, when he has done nothing to earn it?

Destiny has replaced 9/11. Try pulling your tongue lashing stunts on Mars. Lol jk jk

[b]WHY IS THIS A PROBLEM HERE[/b]

This thread belongs in #offtopic.....if it belongs on here at all.

The us did that to our own country to start a war against the middle east [spoiler]hehe u mad? The fbi r after me[/spoiler]

There are outliers and idiots in all religions. Every one of them has a sect that promotes hatred and/or violence or just completely misses the point of it's own teachings. Take [i]everything[/i] in here with a large grain of salt. Not all Americans think the same, so please do us the favor others won't do for you: give us the benefit of doubt first.
-
The people in those middle-eastern countries are a bunch of nutbags. If somthing dosent go they're way they have to make an example out of us. The reason these nutbags don't like America is because we are not all Muslim. They know they can't convert us so they get pissed off and bomb us.
-
Terrorists did that and terrorism doesn't know prejudice.
-
I agree and apologize for the hatred. Next time someone says that, make an analogy like, thinking all Americans are alcoholic idiots, based on seeing a redneck or tv show. Or basing that all Japanese people are suicidal based om kamikaze pilots. Or something extreme like that.

[quote]While i was reading the forums i came across a topic about 9/11 and the twin towers and the comments there shocked me i am a muslim myself and all i read was the muslims did it and -blam!- you muslims and islam etcetera but what i want to say is please dont judge islam on the news and other stuff but do research in it its like judging americans or someone else because of the criminals that live among them thats not good[/quote] Dude, don't listen to the idiots. There are something like [u]2 billion[/u] Muslims in the world. A very, very, very tiny number of them pulled off the 9/11attacks. A couple of dozen guys at the most. The rest of them are like everyone else in the world. Don't listen to the haters.
-
Said it in that stupid thread & will say it here. This is not destiny related. Post in off-topic id you really need to discuss a dead thread
-
These extremists have done horrible things and cannot be forgiven but you're right some Muslims have even saved American soldiers, Marcus lutrell a navy seal was taken in by Pashtun Muslims (I don't know the right term) and their traditions and promised to defend him with their lives from Taliban insurgents that threatened to slaughter the entire village. The village turned out to be tougher than the Taliban. Basically what I'm saying is Marcus would've died without them and he knows it (i read his book)
-
There is ignorance from both Christians and Muslims, both American and Arabic. Ultimately there is no country, race, or human who is not ignorant in some way. The only thing we can do is better educate ourselves and not speak about things we don't fully understand.
-
People need to understand that just because a few people that led a terrorist attack on 9/11 were Muslim, doesn't mean they are all bad people, the Christians that hate on the Muslims because of who their God is shouldn't be allowed to practice Christianity without some kind of apology, this discussion really hits home because I was a kid when this happened, but my Mom was on a business trip to New York. Let me tell you, that was one of the scariest moments of my life, but I will never blame the Islamic faith for those attacks. Only the people who committed the crime.
-
For me, it's not muslims and Islam I don't trust. It's religions I don't trust. Take a look at history and how much violence has been caused in the name of one religion or another. You don't need a religion to believe in God. You also don't need God to be a good person. I will never be able to trust a person who is only good because they think being "good" will give them some divine utopian afterlife. Holy wars and God hating one group or another because of superficial reasons, or because of some book some racist homophobe wrote hundreds of years ago are the problems with religions. Religion not only holds us back morally but also holds back science, because people cling to these stories and teach their children these stories as fact. All this from a man who believes in God, but will never put any stock in religion because all they do is pervert and fabricate to achieve their own shitty nefarious ends.

As my friend Setsuna would say "in this world there is no god"
-
I think you ran into my post but I never talked bad about anybodies culture. I know that most muslims aren't bad it's just what Fox News portrays in propaganda and I apologize in their behalf
-
Why is this in the destiny forum? Muslim
-
Next time you would like to shed some light on this subject in this manner OP, please go post it in Off Topic. This is not really the place for such discussion.
