Right. My point is that Islam isn't somehow hors classe. This nation has freedom of religion, which extends to Islam as well, as imo it should. I don't begrudge Muslims their Muslimity.Yes, but we are talking about the Quran here neer. We'll go onto christianity in a bit.
Violent andor criminal acts performed on religious grounds should be considered evenly atrocious, regardless of the source of the "inspiration". cn
So what if the KKK wrote a book about how horrible other races are. And they promise their follwers rewards (like a "family" and a free place to live IDK). Do you think that book should be allowed to be published and sold?Right. My point is that Islam isn't somehow hors classe.

The best you can come up with is the Spanish inquisition from the 1400's? Trail of Tears from the early 1800's, Salem from the 1690's.
I dislike censorship.
i really hope it changes , i really think that with education that differences in religion that cause issues between civilizations will end
im looking at the big picture, do you really think that prejudice and discrimination or things of the past, lol come one WW, look at waco, a whole country watched on CNN as tanks ran people over and straight up murdered a large group of Americans for not doing what they wanted or support the vies of our nation, its BS my views are not more important then your views and neither of us have the right to discriminate against one another for it, thats liberty you either believe it or use it as a tool to pat your own back
I'd like to censor BS. In return, it would cause alot less deaths and a better society.
But I'd never make the law myself. I wouldn't know where to draw the line. One may say it is BS and another may say well your views are BS. Soon enough, every religion and belief would be illegal and we'd live in a strict dictatorship that would go against everything America believes in.

I'm not denying that in some cases I have seen extreme example of punishment for crimes (in the media) that wouldn't exist in our countries. However, I have never seen such a mixed country live so harmoniously. It is mainly Muslim and as I'd just been in Buddhist Thailand even I was apprehensive. The Malaysian islands are very rural but when I got to KL, OMG I loved it. There was a huge mix of Chinese, Malays and Indians and everyone was respectful. Buddhists, Christians & Muslims. Only country in the World that I've visited where they slow down on the motorway to let you move in from the slip road!!!
You hit that nail solidly on the head, Heph. cnBut I'd never make the law myself. I wouldn't know where to draw the line. One may say it is BS and another may say well your views are BS.

I guess I'll just be sad that the Quran exists too
big brother much . . i mean when does it stop . . issues like this are like comedy, either every thing is funny or only some things can be funny, you cant filter reality
lucky i want to go to south east Asia
You are busting my balls. And the door on the way out was a quote from WW.. I think you misread what I wrote.
I'm not, actually. I am trying to show you which parts of your posts stand up to examination and which ones don't. As I tried to explain to Heph about slightly different issues, pointing out procedural/ intellectual error isn't an assault on your person. Your balls are safe from my attentions. cn
