That's not the point. Anyone can say they are following Christ but if they do the opposite to what he plainly says they clearly are not. You just want to label all Christians and Muslims as dangerous murderous fanatics.DB Roy wrote:Flann 5 wrote:
Sure D.B. Jesus never said to love your enemies or to treat others as you would be treated so anyone who says they are Christian and abuses others is following his teachings.
They certainly believe they are. They couldn't care less what you think.
You are even more extreme than the new atheist apologists who don't make the preposterous generalizations you do.
And neither are you, but I'm not so stupid that I imagine all Muslims are of the Isil persuasion.DB Roy wrote:Quote:

I agree.
You care about Mexican immigrants but not about Syrian refugees. That's not your problem. So what if they perish in thousands fleeing war, after all they're Muslims.
There are legitimate concerns about terrorism but a great deal of the rhetoric is just plain hatred with a callous disregard for the plight of such as the Syrian refugees. Don't let them in. Too bad if they drown or starve. It's not their problem.DB Roy wrote:Quote:
But here's the thing D.B. The racist, Muslim hating far right in Europe are neither Christian or Muslim but citizens of secular societies.
But not all Europeans who don't want to be around Muslims are racist or haters as I hope you well know. Some of them might actually be basing their feeling on incidents as Charlie Hebdo, the London train bombings, 9-11 or these latest attacks in Paris. People have every right to be leery of them. They'd be stupid not to.
I never thought you did care. My point is that you seem to think that racism and hatred are uniquely religion influenced but obviously many non religious people like you are just as capable of anti Muslim anti religious hatred.DB Roy wrote:Quote:
How many of them go to any church or practice any religion? Tiresome as it is to repeat it Communism in Russia and China was atheistic and viciously anti religious.
I don't care! Go lay your rap on a communist.

Go ahead D.B. IMAGINE no religion which is what you would have had if they had been successful in adding all the other millions of religious people to the dead.
All extremes are a problem.
Take a good look in the mirror D.B.
