well i suppose if you believe jesus is god then sure why not, point still stands that islam is far more violent since their prophet was much more violent.

the islamic world is an intolerant and violent place and the fact that people can't see this is why we have these shootings and bombings. I don't like christianity or islam, but last I checked christianity didn't have armies at it's beck and call.

Most Christians do believe in the trinity, so your point has been disproven.

fact remains that islamic extremiss still dwarfs christian extremism, so no nothing changes, even if all christians wanted to burn heretics still these are mere words not actual threats. Islamists are still the most violent. Is what is it, and what is it is Islam.

He quite clearly is saying that free speech for Muslims is like destroying Jews, which is absouletly dumb.
For anyone wondering, I joined this website during my edgy teenage years. I made a lot of dumb, awkward posts, flip-flopped between various extreme ideologies, and just generally embarrassed myself. I denounce a sizable amount of my past posts. I am no longer active on NationStates and this nation/account is no longer used.

bro...

he is saying " If freech speach means destroying things then they shouldn't have free speech"

if free speech entails destruction then no "free speech" as it were.

Hate to disappoint you, Ahmadis are not mainstream muslims. Most Muslims don't even accept them as Muslims. So much for your 'religious scholars who know what they're talking about'. The reality is, people like you just look for 'scholars' to confirm your believes about Islam.

That's not what I was saying. Muslims are not Nazis, but the verses have been interpreted that way by extremists.

Ahmadi scholars and orthodox scholars are equal in their interpretation of those portions of the Quran, so that's a totally irrelevant (not to mention insulting to an entire religious sect) observation to make.

Given that Breivik killed those people to fight the "Islamization" of Norway, Yes.
Crimes committed by Muslims will be a pan-Islamic plot and proof of Islam's inherent evil. On the other hand crimes committed by non-Muslims will merely be the acts of loners who do not represent their belief system at all.
The probability of one's participation in homosexual acts is directly proportional to one's public disdain and disgust for homosexuals.
If a political figure makes an accusation of wrongdoing without evidence, odds are probable that the accuser or an associate thereof has in fact committed the very same act, possibly to a worse degree.

I have Anders Behring Breivik's manifesto saved to my hard drive, but it is so lengthy that I don't have the time to read the full .pdf
But I do try to read a section of it each day. I think Anders brings up a lot of good points but some of it has me confused. Nevertheless, I think he is a genius who is projecting what Europe will actually be like in 2083 if the current demographic trends as it pertains to Europe continue on uninterrupted. His fears of Eurabia are not unwarranted. His actions however, harmed rather than helped his agenda.

I'm just very easily impressed, while Anders wasn't smart in doing what he did, I think he might've had a gift for writing and political analysis of what is going on with his country because of Muslim immigration. There are plenty of people described as "evil" who are gifted in certain areas.

For example, Adolf Hitler was a moron in military strategy but his oratory is unrivaled in all of politics. You can't find a politician hardly anywhere in the world now, that gives speeches that are as captivating. He did as Obama done at his peak in 2008, without the benefit of a teleprompter.

Thanks.

But don't expect them to understand English and not paraphrase people they don't agree with, thats too mainstream.

In other news, a newspaper office in Hamburg which re-printed the Charlie Hebdo cartoon was semi-destroyed in an arson attack.

Hmm I wonder who the attack was by

It should be fucking obvious that PEGIDA only stands in protest of Muslim immigration when their organization's name literally stands for "Patriotic Europeans Against the Islamization of the West".

Except that PEGIDA does not only stand in protest of Muslim immigration as per their own words. In particular, they've also been railing against asylum-seekers. So let's not lie, ok?

If you find yourself considering a child murderer a genius, then it's probably time to rethink your life.

Congratulations on your award for Hypocrite of the Month.

So 0.005% of PEGIDA supporters represent PEGIDA, but 0.005% of Muslims do not represent Islam?
Hahaha.

Going by your beliefs if those 0.005% represented the rest there would be a massive religious riot in Europe anyway.

Oddly enough, a political movement is far more homogenous in motivation than an entire religion. Kind of how hate preachers are often representative of Salafism rather than Islam as a whole.

Aside from which, my position is also based on statements by the protesters themselves*:

How does the islamization make itself felt for you?
"Just on monday they arrested 40 North Africans selling drugs at the Central Station. Police were attacked with broken bottles. We don't want this kind of culture here." (~4:30)

What do you want to achieve here?
"That I'm against foreigners, that not so many of them come here. They get heaps of money and a pensioner like me gets very little and has to work to get more. And them? They're all young men and they don't even want to work." (~8:30)
There's only 0,2% Muslims in Saxony.
"I don't care how many there are. That's already 0,2 too many." (~9:20)

"You must be interested as to why I'm here. I'm hoping that after a few decades the foundational pillars of German culture still exist in Germany." (~13:00)

And that's about as far as I can go given the limitations of the computer I'm using. Same shit that people here have been saying. So yeah: representative. QED.

*First three and a half minutes can be skipped, as the first three consist of an idiot reporter from RTL pretending to be a protester and the half minute after is footage of the crowd standing around.

France doesn't have those populations figures, nor is a large-scale terrorist incident anything to do with the local muslim population's size.

No, you misunderstood the point I made, which was that the only immigration PEGIDA protests is that of the Muslim variety. Nothing in your source disputes that. All it did was shoot down some of their other vapid claims.
