What happens if you name your son Muhammed, and he turns out rotten? How many lashes does that rate?

So much for your theory on Muslims.

Care to do it in Sudan?

I don't give a sh!t about some 9th world country.

You sure love to generalize don't you.

This is the kind of stuff that really blows ones mind. 40 lashes over the naming of a fucking teddy bear???

It is incredibly easy to see why "The Religion Of Peace" is anything but.

yeah, you're right... every muslim agrees with this punishment. in fact, i'm sure the entire country of sudan agrees with it. some "religion of peace," right?

yeah, i'm sure the spanish inquisition was really representative of christian beliefs, too.

you fucking idiot.

Tell that to those who are perverting Islam, which seems to be a growing trend day by day.

This is disgusting.

Will do. In the meantime, do your part and stop making this out to be a problem with the religion. It's a problem with some of its so-called followers.

:thumbsup:

Fair enough, but from my perspective, the "problem" encompasses hundreds of millions of people. The percentage of radical extremists (Islamofascists) is alarming, no matter whose figures you choose to believe. This isn't some isolated case, no needle in a haystack here. This kind of nonsense is becoming prevalent.

haha!!!

omg, that's too funny.

"hundreds of millions"...

wow :laugh:

oh, by the way, i dunno if you got the memo, dumbass, but "islamofascists" don't exist. it's a made-up words. islamic terrorists don't have national pride, so it can't be fascism.

yeah, go ahead, call me a troll... that still doesn't make you any less ignorant nor does it make you any less of a punchline.

Probably those with reason, education, and a love for others is the biggest threat to it.

Nope. They are far less of a threat than people like you are. In fact educated people that can think are its biggest asset.
