The media that creates all this bigotry and hatred and ignorance in their uneducated followers should be held accountable. These are dangerous seeds.

When I woke up this morning and sat down at my workstation, I thought to myself "Hmm, I wonder if Vendzilla replied to my post? If so, I wonder if he merely made an intelligent rebuttal, or if he just resorted to name calling?" Unfortunately, you disappointed me. Notice how when I made my comment, I did not personally attack you or label you? I even took care to state that it was your stance and posting behavior that I took issue with, and that I wasn't branding you personally as an idiot, since you may very well be a very intelligent person with a poorly thought out worldview. Even though I gave you that respect, you unabashedly attacked me (instead of my stance), which is a disappointing testament to your intelligence and character. In the future, if you want people to actually take anything you have to say seriously, I would suggest brushing up on these things. :2 cents: |
I think ALL religions are fucking stupid, retarded, brainwashing fairy tales, used to control people and push agendas, whether they be land wars, oil wars, water wars, or whatever.
That having been said, all of the fairy tale religions SHOULD be treated equally here in the US. Here in the US we have the RIGHT to ridicule, mock, make fun of, and laugh at whatever political and religious figures we wish to. If you are practicing your fairy tale religion in our country, we get to make fun of Muhammad in ANY fucking way we want to, just like we get to make fun of Jesus, or whoever. You want to worship your idiotic faith in the US, and we CAN'T make fun of Muhammad, then you get the fuck out of this country, we don't need your stupid ass shit here! And take your goofball face masks off too - you don't have the right to HIDE here in the US. There! That's my semi-racist rant for today. Thank you for your time. |

I've tried this approach here. It doesn't work. I've since adapted & devolved myself and my posting styles to better fit the dynamic of GFY. |

hardly. i too studied the history of religion in college and learned exactly opposite of what you are stating. in fact, 10s of millions have died/been murdered due to christianity & catholicism. |

Moreover, there was an overwhelming desire to ‘surrender to divine powers forcing men inwardly’ and ‘a need for’ supernatural revelation. As a result, the thinkers of the area were not much interested in -- even discouraged from -- investigating the physical world. Contrariwise, the supreme task of Christian scholarship was to apprehend and deepen the truths of revelation. Christianity during this time actively rejected scientific inquiry. This is just a small sampling of the attitude that permeated the dark ages when the Church was replacing the State… Ambrose, Bishop of Milan on the study of the heavens said: “for wherein does it assist in Salvation”. Justinian, on the thought that philosophical speculations aided heretics, closed the Platonic Academy in Athens. John Crysostom, Arch Bishop of Constantinople said: “Restrain our reasoning, and empty our mind of secular learning, in order to provide a mind swept clear for the reception of divine words”. By the 600's all but two of the learning centers were closed. This is indicative of what you got during the dark ages from the Church. The East during this time were far more innovative and productive. Quote:

The real question is whether the supernatural claims are true and I find no evidence for that. I see a long line of change, promulgated by the Church, and ending in something far removed from the Christology you mention. |

What goes up, without support, will come down with the combined kinetic energy that went into raising it ... consider how much power it took to raise all that steel, pipes, air conditioning units, facade material, furniture, etc several hundred feet (all the mass of the buildings above the respective impact points) into the air over many, many months ... when the support failed, gravity took over releasing all that power in an instant. It's the same principle behind implosions - knock out some key supports and gravity does rest; there's nothing mysterious about the destruction. Ron |

Once again the right needs this to win because they have no plan to save the country its all go back to the same shit that made it fail. So they jump on this bullshit. I got to give W credit, he never took that road. He said openly that it was a religion of peace and visited mosques and said what the manics didn't reflect on the rest of muslims.

Between this issue, the "police acted stupidly" statement, and so on, he just needs to keep his opinions out of petty controversial issues. No good ever comes from it. It doesn't matter who is right or wrong. It is a matter of perception and emotion. I am a huge Obama fan, but even I'm getting pissed off by some of his shit now. Just shut the fuck up, and get some stuff done already! |

Where my party is the party of fucking wimps. the right is minority and they still run the message, I blame obama for that. And robert gibbs gets pissed off at progressives for judging the president.maybe its time for them to wake the fuck up. |

The twin towers were built with economy in mind and some of those trade-offs made them even more vulnerable to fire than some other very tall structures, such as the Empire State building or the Willis (formerly Sears) Tower. In particular, the twin towers had large open floor plans with minimal steel used with minimal fire protection compared to that of buildings utilizing box construction, such as the Empire State building, which contains more steel, much of which is well fire protected, than both of the taller, more spacious twin towers combined! Once one floor fails, it pancakes on to the one below it, which in turn fails due to that extra mass on top of it, followed by more pancaking rapidly leading to building collapse. Placing explosives would be far more difficult than people realize - sure it doesn't take much, relatively speaking to bring down a building, but one can't just place them haphazardly. The amount of time and effort required would have been considerable, as well as very noticeable, especially if placing them so high into the structure. I'm amazed what people believe and post without at least thinking it through a bit first. But then this is GFY so perhaps that's par for the course :1orglaugh Ron |
come on, let's not make this a 9/11 conspiracy thread eh.

"Allahu Akbar! Allahu Akbar! Allahu Akbar!"
Those were the last words recorded on the cockpit voice recorder of Flight 93, and the very same words that will be chanted five times a day at the Ground Zero Mosque should it be built. Say what you will about religious freedom and such but that's just plain wrong. Very wrong. http://ursispaltenstein.ch/blog/imag...ago_9_11_6.jpg |

As a country and culture America does not tolerate racism. Its not accepted in our media, justice system, religion or government. Can that be said in even moderate Muslim countries? The Imam that is involved in the Ground Zero mosque won't condemn terrorists groups. |

'Ground Zero Mosque' Imam Helped FBI With Counterterrorism Efforts http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/0..._n_685071.html Walter Isaacson, head of The Aspen Institute told the Huffington Post. "He has consistently denounced radical Islam and terrorism, and promoted a moderate and tolerant Islam. stopping buying rightwing boogieman talk :) |

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/0..._n_685071.html "Imam Feisal ..... He has consistently denounced radical Islam and terrorism, and promoted a moderate and tolerant Islam...." P.S. in that article he helps our Government too. The video of him speaking to the news about this, he says his group and 99.9% of all Muslims condemn terrorism. http://www.asmasociety.org/home/p_press_16.html NY Times Article: Imam Feiasl said, "condemns suicide bombings and all violence carried out in the name of religion." A Nexis/newsday article (pw protected) has Rauf saying after 9/11 "categorically condemned suicide bombers." I don't really care either way, but I do hate fox news so.... |

Sounds like he is saying what everyone wants to hear. I would love to hear or see all his condemnation for terrorism before 2009. If anyone can dig that up, I'll be a convert about his motives. |
Quote:
60 minutes trans script, dated: Sept 30, 2001 he said: "Fanaticism and terrorism have no place in Islam. That's just as absurd as associating Hitler with Christianity, or David Koresh with Christianity." On Google to the left is more search tools, you can enter a data range and it will pull up news/articles, etc from those ranges, somewhat at least. |
