I'd like to see more such trailers. I'd especially like to see more videos and full-length movies that expose Islam for what it is - a bigoted, ignorant, hate-filled cult of violence.

Sounds like every other religion to me. Christianity included.

Amen to that!

Although I'd say that most mainstream Christian denominations are more like bigoted, ignorant, hate-filled money-grubbing cults of personality than openly violent; but that's just my opinion.

Funny thing that you never see the headline "Hindus rioting over portrayal of their Religion."
I used to work with a bloke from India who was Hindu. Nice fellow, he once lectured us for swatting a fly. The other chaps in the office kept after him and finally got him to try a hamburger. It was amusing.

why, please tell me, is blasphemy limited to Muslims? What about Christians? Hindus? Jews?


Agreed. Blasphemy happens all the time. Muslims have no respect for anybody else's religion, yet they demand that their own should be untouchable and that nobody should be allowed to say anything negative about it at all.

Muslims blaspheme Jesus all the time, by claiming that he was not the Son of God. However, they demand that nobody should be allowed to blasheme Mohammed.

You will not see Western Christians out rioting in the streets because of Muslim blasphemy, so why do Muslims feel they have the right to get so indignant when somebody blasphemes their prophet?


While Muslims don't believe that Jesus was divine, they do regard Him as one of their Prophets. Still, they react with violence or threats of violence if anyone says anything remotely negative about Mohammed.

The riot in sydney last saturday shows what sort of people we're dealing with.
There was going to be a so called "Peaceful" rally in Melbourne on sunday they called it off but we're just waiting to see what happens.

I have a script, "The Innocence of Hairless Ground Apes" With enough funding I could get Alex to Direct, and expose the lie they are living.

I always thought the Coptics were faking it, just working the tourists, like those people who dress as Micky and Goofy at Disney. Tour guides for Infidels does not work, Copek Christians, just working the crowd for the coins.

So we have several versions of "The Greatest Story Ever Sold" All go back to Abraham who was a Jack Sumarian, failed at being a Baalist, so became a Sabien like all the other, could not get it right, types.

A traveling storyteller passing off old stories as his own.

He was just working the crowd with stories from Gilgamesh, Sumner, Baal, making a living, and would be shocked with being credited with the all time high body count.

There is good and bad about everyone, the bad sells.

I posted this in another thread. I think it fits here better.

Quote:


As an Atheist, I am a firm believer that Islam is not the problem. The problem is lack of education, extremism (which is fed by poor education) and al-Qaeda. Blaming it all on 1.3 billion people, spread throughout the globe, shows a deep misunderstanding of world politics and also a deep ignorance of other cultures. If Muslims are so evil, why are there no riots in America? I'll tell you why.

While we were playing 'hide-and-go-seek' with Bin Laden, al-Qaeda (which has members in high positions with their governments) has been spreading their message of hate to the uneducated masses in the Middle East, a place with no freedom of press. They have no idea of what freedom looks like. In the Middle East, there is no such thing as freedom of speech. Everything is regulated by the government. They can't fathom that the US doesn't run like that. To them a government has absolute power. Ergo why they blame the US for the video.

And just like many Christians here in America, they've been taught they have the only true religion and that all other religions are evil. They have been taught that America is a Christian nation out to destroy them (remember all the wars we've fought over there? Yeah, they remember that too). Combine with previous paragraph and you get a recipe of a bunch of uneducated pawns listening to whatever their leaders tell them and doing stupid crap like rioting.

Dear Pileo, Thank you so much for sharing that video!

That is a man of sincerity and insight, who has truly studied his holy book, and does not depend on what others tell him that it says!
I appreciated hearing his example of how Muhammad himself responded to those who did not accept his teachings.

Difference is that there is almost no specifically Christian terrorism in the modern era. The vast majority of religious terrorism is Islamic.

Because there aren't enough Muslims in the U.S. to create serious violence and disorder, that's why. And because Americans simply won't put up with their crap. Islam is riddled with violence and terrorism and the apologists for violence and terrorism across the world. There have been about 20,000 Islamic terrorist attacks since 9/11 - more than one a day.

Wherever Islam goes in large numbers, violence, hatred of women and minorities goes with it.

There is also the fact that America is ruled by law -- Secular Law -- which gives no preference to any one religion. So, when some woman-hating father cuts off his daughter's head for smiling at a neighbor boy, here in America, he goes to jail.

In the Middle East, he'd be cheered for having honored Islam.

Cultural psychopathy, plain and simple.

A good friend just e-mailed me. He said this is all a viral ad for the next Monty Python movie, "Life of Brian's Brother."

If only it were so.

I agree ... if only it were so.

Like Brian, he keeps getting mistaken for a certain prophet (coughs loudly) and silliness ensues.

I wish the world would stop spinning out of control ...

More ham, Ed? It might help you with that cough.
