Yeah, and I even apologized to you last December over what I said back in October but you rejected it. Now, I see why.

That's not something you just accept an apology for, Jolthig lmao. It's not even something you needed to apologize to me for. I'm not the victim there. I rejected it because I honestly don't believe you had changed from that viewpoint.

Well, there are certain aspects of things that Jolthig has said and defended that would contradict that. Including things I'm not allowed to talk about as it has special protections now.

But again, my debate style is not that topic of this thread. If you believe I have broken the rules, feel free to report it :)

I don't think it quite crosses the line into being outright trolling, but I think you behave like a jerk.

Aside from the fact that he has a perfectly good reason to hate Muhammad -of course, whether or not he really does I do not know-, whether or not Khosrow hates Muhammad, whether or not he hates you, and whether or not he hates Muslims is irrelevant to the topic that is not about Khosrow and his opinions or debating style. Maybe you guys should stop before we hit the two page mark?

I'm not going to make such a thread, because I don't agree with ridiculing a religion, I was just saying that to make a point about how we wouldn't want our beliefs treated in a hostile way.

I mean, if you could bring up a reason why Uhrmazd could be classified as a demon based on his actions as recorded in the Zoroastrian canon, I don't see why you shouldn't. It could make up a pretty good debate -as Zoroastrianism is seldom touched upon even in the more theologically-inclined parts of this forum.

Honestly, this. I'm not the topic of the thread or any such and if anyone wished to ask about or criticise my beliefs, feel free to go there and do so. Or make a new thread.

He probably hates muslims, which leads to hating Islam.
Which is a pity because Islam is quite beautiful. But the believers ruined it.

I'm sure the majority of Arabs during Muhammad's conquest (including literally every single Jew in the entire peninsula), and the people of the Roman Levant, and Persia would harshly disagree with you. And that's only the first 44 years!

Honestly, sort of. Like I've said a million times before here, I have no problem with Islam as a concept. It just needs a reform. Preferably in the direction of Nizari Ismailism. It's how it's practiced by Orthodox Muslims that is deserving of ridicule. Like still accepting the verses about slavery and domestic abuse, for instance.

"Islam needs a reform". I think that's the only thing we can agree on.

Anyways, ladies, gents, I hope you're on good terms with your grandparents. Otherwise, try to reconcile. I've recently received a reminder that God didn't make us immortal.

To my knowledge, pretty much every mainstream Muslim believes that slavery cannot be justified through Islam. Inshallah, the reformist view of these verses will become more mainstream and common as time goes on.

Maybe every mainstream Muslim you've met in your life in America, Ziz. However, there are plenty of Muslims worldwide (Sunni and Shia) who sit here and defend shite like this. Including some of the ones here.

So in the new RWDT there was a small discussion over what dhimmis were and what rights they have according to Al-Islam* (I was part of this discussion as well). So here are some links explaining what dhimmis are and what rights they have according to Al-Islam*:
*I'm talking about Al-Islam as a religion, not its history

If you have any questions about this you can just them in this thread or you can telegram me or other Muslims for answers

Good luck with everything, mate. I don’t have a grand speech prepared, but you were perhaps one of the people with whom I was closest here, so it’s gonna be odd to see you gone. Adios, mi amigo.
