May 20 is ‘Everybody Draw Mohammed Day’

[SlugForAButt]

I apologise for the last image. Looking at it now it was needlessly offensive.
As part of my apology I have doctored the piccy so we are all aware that Mohammad pbuh would never condone any of the murderous violence perpetuated in his name.



Actually, pbuh could stand for poo be upon him wich would vindicate the last pic. But nonetheless I apologise unreservedly for putting a turd on Mohammad's head.

EDIT: No need, it's been censored and removed almost immediately.
In which case, I retract my apology. Now I feel angry!

 

[batsy]

Anyhow please excuse me as i have a few non muslim friends coming around to enjoy some 110% halaal steaks rather than that rubbish non halaal meat....on nom nom nom

Why not just start a halal thread, nobody seems to be biting (excuse the pun)

Then we'd all be killing people over all the other things we've killed people over.


Remember the most bloody massacres past and present are not religious in nature they are political/power driven.

depends how you interpret it I suppose, a few current & quite recent religious wars

most of those weren't started over religious reasons.

and not many of them are particularly bloody compared to the wars in Africa which kill tens of millions every year.


then there were the slaughters in revolutionary china and Russia which make all the conflicts on your list pale in comparison.


also why the **** is communism listed as a religion on that list?

 

[mrk]

 

[JBuk]

Hahah that one is class

 

[Cosimo]

also why the **** is communism listed as a religion on that list?

Because for many lost souls it was.

Didn’t they tell you that in school, maybe you should take some time out and read about it.

Roffles...sure he does sure he does lol.

Id love to see him go up against some muslim scholars ie namely Dr Zakir Naik...i would love to see him debate with him....he wouldnt last a minute against him.

Spawn, the minute that you dissed anthing from Jihad Watch is the minute that you lost all credibility regarding anything to do with Islam.

You know absolutely nothing.

All the following places, are fully reputable sources for any news concerning extremism in Islam:

http://www.jihadwatch.org/
http://www.ex-muslim.org.uk/
http://www.thereligionofpeace.com/
http://www.quilliamfoundation.org/

There are lots more, but people from those links have far more credibility to me than you, or any Muslim blindly defending their faith do.

One article I just read linked from the third link above:

Three Brits Killed In Suspected Honor Killing During Pakistan Vacation

Pakistan (ChattahBox) – Three members of a British family on vacation in Pakistan have been killed in what appears to have been an honor killing, authorities say.


The Yousaf family had been in the country celebrating the arranged marriage of one the couple’s sons.

But Mohammad, Pervaze, and their adult daughter Tania never expected that they would be in danger. They were shot while visiting a graveyard.

Authorities believe that it was related to a relationship with another son of the couple’s, and that it was an honor killing.

“Mr Yousaf’s son was married to a girl from Pakistan and there have been some problems with the marriage and that’s the dispute that’s happened,” Mohammed Iqbal, a friend of the family, explained.

Another woman was also killed earlier in the day, though it isn’t known for sure if the attack was related.

Two shooters have been arrested, and another is being sought.

Defending any religion as non violent is a non starter mate

define practically any of those countries in that list where different religions aren't always at each others throats or if not in actual conflict live in separate parts of a country so they are kept apart.

You aren't old enough to remember N. Ireland right on our doorstep?

A catholic who wanted to marry a protestant would live in fear of being shunned by their family & more likely than not the man would end up being 'kneecapped'. whole areas separated by steel walls to keep what was in effect the same religion - i.e Christianity.

You haven't read about partition in India when the British gave them independence where an estimated 1 million people died simply because they were suddenly in the wrong place ? 12 million people on the move overnight!!

Pakistan was created in North West India in 1947, if you lived there & were a Hindu you had to pack up & move down to India & likewise Muslims in India had to move up to the newly created Pakistan,

Here's the bad bit: families of Hindus & Muslims who had lived quite happily as neighbours for generations just turned on each other & went on a killing spree, rampaging Hindus massacred any Muslims who didn't flee quick enough & the houses & property they left behind was a free for all. The same applied to Hindus caught in N.West India. Religious shrines were also desecrated by both sides.

religion is responsible for countless millions of deaths however you look at it or try & twist the truth

Religion = Peaceful is just the most ridiculous joke in the world.

Theres nothing even funny about it, but people keep on telling that joke all the time.

.....

Wait, erm, the people saying that are actually serious? oh lol. lol lol and more lol.

Now its funny, at the expense of people who believe it to be true.

That's not what i said.


Things other than religion have killed far more people though.

and started more wars and genocides.

More a matter of mental illness than religion I think.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religious_war

Many wars that are not religious wars often still include elements of religion, such as priests blessing battleships. Differences in religion can further inflame a war being fought for other reasons. Historically, places of worship have been destroyed to weaken the morale of the opponent, even when the war itself is not being waged over religious ideals.

Religious designations are sometimes used as shorthand for cultural and historical differences between combatants, giving the often misleading impression that the conflict is primarily about religious differences.

Nah, Spawn knows much more about islam than Spencer.

Robert Spencer (MA, Religious Studies, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill) has been studying Islamic theology, law, and history in depth since 1980. He is the author of ten books, including the New York Times bestsellers The Truth About Muhammad and The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam (and the Crusades) (both Regnery).

Spencer has also written eleven monographs and well over three hundred articles about jihad and Islamic terrorism. Along with the above bestsellers, he is the author of Islam Unveiled: Disturbing Questions About the World's Fastest Growing Faith (Encounter); Onward Muslim Soldiers: How Jihad Still Threatens America and the West (Regnery); Religion of Peace? Why Christianity Is and Islam Isn't (Regnery), a refutation of moral equivalence and call for all the beneficiaries and heirs of Judeo-Christian Western civilization, whatever their own religious or philosophical perspective may be, to defend it from the global jihad; Stealth Jihad: How Radical Islam is Subverting America without Guns or Bombs (Regnery), an expose of how jihadist groups are advancing their agenda in the U.S. today by means other than terrorist attacks; and The Complete Infidel's Guide to the Koran (Regnery). He is coauthor, with Daniel Ali, of Inside Islam: A Guide for Catholics (Ascension), and editor of the essay collection The Myth of Islamic Tolerance: How Islamic Law Treats Non-Muslims (Prometheus). Spencer's books have been translated into many languages, including Spanish, Italian, Finnish, and Bahasa Indonesia.

Spencer has discussed jihad, Islam, and terrorism at a workshop sponsored by the U.S. State Department and the German Foreign Ministry.

The statement 'Peaceful religion' is an oxymoron.

A JUDGMENT by the High Court in Lahore is worrying Pakistan's Christians. The court decided recently that Pakistan's blasphemy laws are applicable to all the phrophets of Islam.
Jesus is a prophet in Islamic teaching. By worshipping Jesus as the son of God, Christians are, it could be argued, committing a blasphemy. The Bible itself, which Islamic scholars regard as not strictly factual, might be reckoned to contain blasphemies against Abraham, Noah, David and Jacob, all of whom are in the Islamic canon. Blasphemy carries the death sentence in Pakistan.

megaliffic LOL
