          People say the Islamic god and the Christian god are the same god, but Christians and Muslims can’t even agree on what their god is within their own religions, hence all the sectarianism, so I don’t really buy that.

            Don’t forget Judaism. God, Yahweh and Allah are all the same deity, yet look how much bloodshed has been spilled over which one interpreted things correctly…

    So they have zero confidence in their own god to punish Sweden or coran burners.

    I call it “fragile religiosity” or “weak faith”.

    It is human decency to not mock faiths and their sacred writings, regardless of what you think the truth is. I do not condone or promote these actions, but be prepared to face the consequences if you are going to harm a big proportion of the world’s people anyhow.

      Everything you say before the but doesn’t really matter. Fuck these people. There literally isn’t a book you could burn that would offend me in this way. Their magic book doesn’t entitle them to throw a hissy fit when people do something they don’t like. Full stop.

      If your world view is based upon a conspiracy theory with little to no backing evidence, you are bound to face mockery.

      When you use these theories to suppress the rights of others and act like a barbaric caveman, either conflict arises or you have an ideological dictatorship.

      Religion is great at detaching you from reality and your fellow man. Calling it human decency to encourage both of those behaviors is absolutely awful and you should be deeply ashamed.

      I will mock any sky-daddyism whenever I feel like it. Oh and your buddy Moe was a pedo criminal who ordered prisoners of war tortured and his personal enemies murdered.

      Your irrationality is not immune from criticism just because it is dear to you.

      I’m all for respecting faiths if those faiths are respectful in return. Everyone is entitled to believe whatever they want; but if your beliefs are outright dangerous, don’t be surprised when you get backlash for it. Sadly Islam has no respect for anyone, not even it’s own followers. There is no place for Islam, Catholicism or any other extreme religion in modern society. Leave that shit in the middle ages.
