Sad/funny truth is a good portion of people here would know that your first post didn't contain an ounce of sarcasm or irony...Just bitter truth laced with as much venom as a Cobra bite.


Oh and Yoda, I really shouldn't have to make my posts so blindingly obvious that it contains some dry and bitter humour so you will get it... I don’t want to be told by a 16 year old “I hope you’re not that ignorant.”

No, the sad truth is that some people honestly believe I'm trolling when I say things like that. I know sarcasm doesn't translate very well in a wall of text. That's why, unless i can make it blindingly obvious, I don't do it. I just stick to blatant insults instead.

And we all love you for doing it.

Right?
It has been reported that some victims of rape, during the act, would retreat into a fantasy world from which they could not WAKE UP. In this catatonic state, the victim lived in a world just like their normal one, except they weren't being raped. The only way that they realized they needed to WAKE UP was a note they found in their fantasy world. It would tell them about their condition, and tell them to WAKE UP. Even then, it would often take months until they were ready to discard their fantasy world and PLEASE WAKE UP

Love me? There was a minor religion built around me at one point. I think the quotes in my signature (yes, both of them) kinda explain the whole thing adequately.

Yeah, well, I live in an extremely conservative rural area where people actually believe that. Like, a lot of people honestly think that all Muslims are terrorists, Obama is one, and that in the Qur'an it tells them to kill all non-Muslims. It drives me insane, and I tend to overreact when people make anti-Islamic comments. So sorry about that.

Really? Most of the passages I've read where people have claimed that seemed like they could at least be interpreted a different way. Have a link to a translation anywhere?

I've found that the muslims 'bible' is actually more scientifically accurate than the christian bible. Well i was looking at the creation stories, so atleast in them anyway..

For instance the christian bible says god made the earth/universe in 6 days(plus 1 day of rest), (thus making sunday a 'holy day of rest' because it was when god rested after creating the world), while the muslims one says allah made it in six 'periods' (saying: "a day whereof the measure is a thousand years of your reckoning"), so not days as we know them, but long periods of time.

It also talks of how the heavens were smoke and that he made the smoke come together, which is quite similar to the scientific explanation of stars and planets forming from gas, as indeed you may describe gas as 'smoke' to primitive man so that they can understand it.

And theres a bunch of other stuff that genesis gets wrong while the muslims version avoids these inaccuracies, i was actually quite surprised, but i guess if you're interested you can search for them yourself.

And don't forget to scream an absurd statement before you press the detonator, like, "Led Zepplin Rules!" or, "Leave Britney Alone!" Or my favorite, "What's this in my pocket!?" There are schools dedicated to finding your right absurd statement.

please,don't talk about something you don't know about....,because religions don't have anything to do with killing the non followers of it,there is difference what the religions books tell(quran,bible,etc..)and what about people do in the name of religion(which in 99% of the time is against what the religion tell).


Not trolling. I genuinely want Haiti napalmed into oblivion.

Likewise. Said passage exists - we had an assembly or Islam a few months back, pointing to the specific section advocating the brutal murder of non-believers. Yet, the justification was that it was only necessary at the time, much like Churchill's speech which stated that the Brits will fight the Germans on the beaches, in the hills etc. - is that still relevant? No. It's only history, after all.
So while the Qu'ran does appear to call for the killing of infidels, it is not meant to be followed any more - the subtle redundancies of religious texts, which leads to misinterpretations and subsequent extremism.
