Turkey: eating left-handed is demonic

[The Parkus Empire]

Doesn't say that only demons eat and drink with their left hand, just that demons do. Although I am surprised Islam considers demons to be corporeal entities.

Many consider shayateen to be jinn, which can interact in a tactile manner with people and objects and also subject to bodily desires like eating and sleeping

[Grand Britannia]

The one thing I can agree on with Turkey.

Now idk about them calling the use of the left hand as "demonic", but there is some basis for their reasoning.

That's stupid and I will continue to be a lefty.

Non-Muslims aren't subject to Al-Islam so idk why you're saying it like that's a sign of protest.

Because I feel bad for people in Islamic countries who are subjected to it.

I don't think anyone in any 'Islamic' countries are being enforced to do this.

Says who?

C’mon Turkey, do you REALLY wnat to be hated again?

Hated by who?

[TURTLESHROOM II]

This is a bad conclusion- being left-handed is not evil -but theologically (at least in Judaism and Christianity), he's right.

Satan and all demons are left-handed. In my religion, God is explicitly listed as right-handed and that's considered the default. Men extend the "Right Hand of Fellowship" when greeting other members, even if they are left-handed. God welcomes those into Heaven with an outstretched Right Hand. An unwritten assumption in the Ancient Church was that He, in turn, directed the condemned to Hell with His Left Hand.

Consider the following:

• The words "left", "left-handed", and the word "sinister" have the exact same etymology. (The words "right", "right-handed", and the word "Dexter" all have the same etymology, although 'Dexter" is obsolete outside a person's name.)
• Satan was always traditionally depicted as left-handed in the days of old
• Ninety percent of all humans are right-handed
• It's bad etiquette to shake hands with the left hand

The clergyman is absolutely correct that God (or Allah, I presume) is right-handed.

He is incorrect to say that one who is left-handed is evil.

No, there really isn't...

I don't know about Islam, but in Judaism and Christianity, they have their facts straight. God is explicitly shown to be right-handed. Demons and Satan are implied to be left-handed, though it is not stated in the Bible.

The word "left" and "sinister" have the same root.

I'm left handed.

What's that make me?

[Trumptonium]

what's the point of being left-handed anyway?

it's beyond unacceptable in business to shake with your left-hand, it makes steering more difficult, it makes it much more likely for you to be uncomfortable (and a burden) to people sitting next to you on a table ... are there any benefits?

There doesn't need to be a point to it.

It's just how people develop.

It's genetic, you can't just choose to be right handed.
