Suicide bomber kills at least 52 mainly women and children in Lahore, Pakistan

[itchy]

I seen this before in the news.

I see a pattern here!

If I was to speak my mind I would be banned.

Grow up doesn't matter one single but what Muslims will say, you lot will never be pleased with what we say or do.

Please don't put me in 'you lot'.
I don't expect the 5 Muslim colleagues in my department to apologise for what an extremist Muslim did but I'm a grown up.

Terrible loss of life. Just goes to show its not about race or religion. It's just sick individuals accountable for their own actions. Pakistan needs to wake up from this.

I know, who was this actually targeted at? I am just assuming here but i would say 95% plus are Muslim?

Governments and the public. People trying to force their ideology onto others. Like almost all bombings.

The problem is ISIS and other islamic terrorists don't care or see the vast majority of muslims as equals. They'll be "sinners" as they don't agree/conform with the suicide bombers version of their ideology.

Many people in the west are lumping 1.6Bn muslims into one group. Extremists aren't.

Religion should come with a health warning

' you lot ' , 'what we' ?

Had i posted it's all the fault of 'you lot ' and referered to 'what we ' want - i would have labeled a bigot.

You have just demonstrated, as a Muslim, a divided mentality of intolerance - Us and Them

Actually, he's probably aiming that specifically at a specific group of people that make the majority of posts in these threads...

Just as a background to all this:

This isn't the first or last time Pakistan will experience this in its help with the war on terror.

Can the usual crowd give us their opinion on the reason for this one? What twisted logic brought the bombers to do this?

Was it the wests fault? Genuine question

RIP

Well obviously if Pakistani Christians hadn't invaded Iraq and stationed troops in the holy land of Saudi Arabia then this wouldn't have happened. Can people not see that Pakistani Christian foreign policy caused this?

But this was precisely because of religion; "We claim responsibility for the attack on Christians as they were celebrating Easter"

With our superior intelligence we could have gotten to where we are today in just a few months yet it took us thousands of years of slow trial and error.
Its a wonder we even got to the top of the food chain with the sort of stupidity

They talk a lot of tosh. The bomber couldn't care less about faith or religion of those who die. These people who say this are only there to cause a bigger divide. Christians have celberated easter all over the world. It's not exactly a new thing now is it?

Looking like it's hit 70 now. Poor poor people.

Its a wonder how we even got to the top of the food chain.

Not really. We had big balls and used sticks and stones to beat back larger predators. One thing about humans, we might be physically inferior to our animal cousins but we are brave and smart. We dragged ourselves to the top of the top of the food chain with courage and guile. The trouble is, that belligerent force that drives us is also the force that tears us apart. We need more smarts and less violence if we are going to succeed. We are without doubt the most violent creature to ever walk this earth. We need to temper our primal instincts in order to live in peace with each other. Humans are both evil and good, we need more good.

More violent than a T-Rex? Come on mate

Jeeze you've got your head in the sand... What relevance does the fact that Christians celebrate Easter all over the world have to your dubious argument that the bomber couldn't care less about faith or religion?

Yeah. Nuclear weapons killed thousands in an instant. T Rex has nothing on our ability to kill.

RIP. Can't ever see an end to all this unfortunately.

Is your dad alright, Yas?

Latest studies suggest T-Rex was no more than a scavenger, essentially a big vulture who stole the kills of others.

Regardless fossil specimens suggest that T-Rex didn't spend tens of thousands of years honing methods to inflict genocide on their fellow dinosaurs.

I may be making a leap here but using tooth and claw to survive until the next meal is a little different to the human paranoia that drives us to wipe out anything that we deem different whilst hiding behind stories in order to justify this behaviour.

Yeah. I've read that cranial scans of T Rex skulls show that they had had an enlarged olfactory bulb in their brain which is similar to what we see in in scavengers today such as vultures. T Rex did kill prey for sure but like most apex predators they would get the bulk of their protein from scavenging dead animals. Coprolites (fossilised dino poop) show that they did had a varied diet, much like lions today. Why pass up a rancid carcass, easy meat.

There's been no Facebook sheep posts regarding changing your profile picture to the Pakistani flag. Obviously, the Pakistanis don't breathe the same type of air than us so don't exist ....
