A first and second round exit and an affair with a stripper.

Wrong on both accounts.

[KyleKong]

I'm religious, and I fvcking can't stand Mark Jackson.

"Hate one and love the other"

This is exactly why I don't like Mark Jackson and his hypocritical bullshit.

He loves to criticize the homosexual community and condemn them all to hell, but turns the shoulder over his former players that cheat on their spouses and have kids out of wedlock.

You cannot pick and choose what you think is right and what you think is ok to turn the shoulder on.

[NumberSix]

I actually like that he insulted Islam and Scientology. We need more of that.

[kennethgriffin]

religious people are looked down upon by society in general these days. its like practising voodoo

its actually the best way to tell a persons IQ. the less you know. the more you need to "believe" blindly in faith

just lost the last shred of respect i had for this man

Not really. Sure, it's fair play to trash Christians, but god forbid you do the same to muslims or Jews. Suddenly you're a hateful nazi racist.

You base your morality on what people thought thousands of years ago?

Depends on the motivation. If you criticize Judaism or Islam, then fair game. If you're going after an ethnicity, then you're being racist.

There is no possible scenario if Islam being an ethnicity. And "racism" doesn't exist. The word "racism" doesn't even mean anything.

Also, there are plenty of situations when it is perfectly fine to go after ethnicity.

No sacred cows. All ideas are fair game in the marketplace of free ideas. Religions don't get a free pass just because people of faith might get offended. If they can make their religious claims, I can criticize them. And if they're going to go out on a street corner acting mad, then they set themselves up for ridicule.

Otherwise, I get being respectful. It's all in context.

I agree people should be able to comment on others beliefs because they are choosing to believe that. But I'm answering numbersix and you can't say it's widely accepted. If someone went on tv tomorrow and went on a rant about how they hate Muslims their would be backlash which was my point.

Glad to hear it. Would have been more interesting if you had given a different date, doe. But you're probably not aware of what's going on in other parts of the less modernized world with regards to Christianity. Witch burnings and killing gays does still happen. What's happened to Christianity in the West is that got it's balls cut off and made to act civilized because it could no longer command armies and use the power of the state to enforce religious views on everyone.

Some though aren't very happy with that situation. They think their faith ought to be enforced for some odd reason.

I guess it's just a wild coincidence that Islam has destroyed the culture and society of every country it has become the dominant ideology of. :rolleyes:

Yes. I agree.

But I'd also say that Islam is inherently a more dangerous religion because of certain tenants of the faith. I am by no means saying Islam is the only dangerous faith.

I'm out. Not the proper place in my opinion.

If the wrong faction of Christians gained serious power, you might not get blown up, but you could get arrested and tortured if you didn't agree with them.

Stop being a coward. It's a savage ideology/culture. I know it makes you feel icky inside or terrified that you might be branded a "racist" if you dare think or say group-of-people-A causes more damage or is less civilized than group-of-people-B, but at some point we all have to grow up and live in the real world.

What I said that is historically inaccurate is.............

[Nowitness]

The fact that people are even discussing one religion being worse than another proves how redundant the whole idea is.

Face it, like Hitchens often said, religion drives morally good people to do and say terrible things. Just like Abraham proved himself by almost sacrificing his son to God (before the angel said we see your fear him) throughout human history (at-least the reported as I believe very little of it) religion has done way worse than good.

Shame on every person who got away with child molestation; shame on every member of the corrupt conclave; and shame on every member of the Catholic Church for enforcing their redundant, radical, reclusive, recounted, retracted, repulsive, revolting, rancorous, repugnant, retarded ideologies and theocracies on people who have either reached the age of reason and/or realized that we are not at the center of the universe.

Islam itself is the Quran. Everything about Islam is in it. The Quran doesnt encourage explosions, killings of young girls... No verse encourage those things. You cant blame Islam for the all the killings. The problem isnt the religion. The problem is in the people doing it.

Those few Muslims who kill people arent real Muslims because they dont follow what the Quran says. In order to be a Muslim you have to follow the Quran. Quran is against killing innocent people. Those people who kill innoncent young girls cant be considered Muslims. They are just bad human beings using religion to justify their bad intentions, to feel better.

But usually we don't trifle in such matters. We're more into shit like creating Global Warming, faking the moon landing, and setting up 9/11.

There is virus I. Sometimes it is very severe, and kills many people. At other times it has been more mild than virus C.

Right now C doesn't seem so bad, because the population infected with it is relatively healthy, and has developed various treatments for it.

I seems much worse by comparison, because the population it infects is in poor health, and they've just begun to develop treatments.

I agree that Islamists are a bigger threat to peace right now than Christian extremists. But it's not because Islam is inherently more violent, or backwards than Christianity.


Oh, so it's not culture of Islam that destroyed these countries? It's that those groups of people are inferior savages? Really?

The middle east, Egypt and Persia were actually pretty advanced places before Islam showed up.They were after Islam showed up as well.

The guy is borderline retarded. Give the nikka a break.
That's what this devilish world has came to right? Somebody expressing their love and respect for God openly means they are retarded? This must be the end of the world just like it interprets in the bible.

I never claimed the church had ANY role in the age of enlightenment.

So your thought process is that Catholics were soldiers sent by God to kill/stop Muslims and probably themselves so scientific reason could advance this world and lead to more people realizing religion is B.S?

Greece and Italy were pretty advanced prior to Christianity also.

You also clearly said without the Church Islam would have swept over Europe and there would be no enlightenment. That is playing a role.

[moe94]

Clearly a deluded modern apologist. Let me ask you this, if you say some people of religion are bad how can you then say that those who are truly good represent religion? Surely if you discount the bad as simply a few Muslims then surely you need to do the same with the good. In which case why preach it?

So if a few people are bad and someone says they don't represent the majority, you can say the opposite? What? :roll:

Islam = Quran. Have you read the Quran? If not, you cant criticize it.

Islam does not respect women. Muslim men are free to do as they please.

Ok, sure. In the same way that the British committing genocide on the native Americans played a role in Michael Jordan winning 6 NBA championships. Without the colonizing of of the new world, there would have never been an NBA.

I guess you could say that the dinosaurs going extinct also played a role in us having this ridiculous conversation right now.


Don't be stupid.

[Nowitness]

So if a few people are bad and someone says they don't represent the majority, you can say the opposite? What? :roll:

No I can say their belief drove them. This is a morality matter. Give me one positive/good think a believer does that can't be done by an infidel and then give me one evil/bad thing done by a believer which can only be justified by a believer then you will see what I am saying is speaking more to this absurd idea that religion makes people good.

Circumcising kids, preaching hate against gays, the Catholic Church preaching Antisemitism until the mid 1900s long after the Nuremberg trials are just modern examples of the bad religious does which is only just by saying The Bible says so...'

The real point is that very few religious people stick literally to what they are told and thus there are a few bad Christians per se, a few good a ton of people in the middle (not really bad as in murder bad not really good as in keeping Holy the Sabbath...).

[Fawker]

Not here nor there about personal beliefs but doesn't every company have conduct codes? Is the NBA ok with this public display from their employee? Especially an on camera personality who has to perform to mixtures of viewers?

yeah you can critize those people running those states, but you cant criticize the religion itself.
Everything about Islam is in Quran. People may use and misinterpret Islam to fulfill their bad intentions. You have to read Quran yourself to see what it really is.

Yes please continue to make silly comparisons to cover up the fact that you made a mistake. You are the one who said the Church had a connection to the Enlightenment don't get pissy at me for pointing that out to you.

i have never seen an atheist that was moral, righteous, kind, giving, compassionate, trustworthy, loyal, brave or courageous

it is what it is

never loan an atheist money btw (he will never pay you back (or speak truthfully ie fpliii)

Lol religion thread

[mehyaM24]

islaam has no peace; it's derived from the work "aslam" which means submission

the first to submit to allaah was adam, and the religion of submission (islam) has always existed from day one

[ThePhantomCreep]

Yeah, it is.

Christianity is a papercut. Scientology is a gunshot wound. Islam is what happens when you stand next to a exploding bomb.

No, it isn't. And neither is Murica. How many innocent lives did that village idiot in your avatar extinguish in Iraq again? That good old boy Christian practically committed genocide over there.

Islam itself is the Quran. Everything about Islam is in it. The Quran doesnt encourage explosions, killings of young girls... No verse encourage those things. You cant blame Islam for the all the killings. The problem isnt the religion. The problem is in the people doing it.

Those few Muslims who kill people arent real Muslims because they dont follow what the Quran says. In order to be a Muslim you have to follow the Quran. Quran is against killing innocent people. Those people who kill innoncent young girls cant be considered Muslims. They are just bad human beings using religion to justify their bad intentions, to feel better.

No but of-course you can kill infidels, adulterers, chop of the hands of thief's...

Quran (3:56) - "As to those who reject faith, I will punish them with terrible agony in this world and in the Hereafter, nor will they have anyone to help."

First quote that I remembered. If as you say The Quaran is Allah surely this is still the case? How 'bout;

Quran (2:216) - "Fighting is prescribed for you, and ye dislike it. But it is possible that ye dislike a thing which is good for you, and that ye love a thing which is bad for you. But Allah knoweth, and ye know not."
