There's been a thread going on and the user specifically is slamming non-believers of the Muslim faith. Link is provided: http://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post?id=80380657 What are your thoughts? Is it really silly for them to defend their arguments or are we right? Please drop a comment below For those opting out; explain your reasoning? Thanks Flood Edit 1: receiving backlash from radicals; look I don't blame them. I'll just report them directly. Also, thanks community! Feedback has been helpful and I really like how we are clarifying things. Edit 2: received massive backlash from the community; completely unexpected. But hey look, I came here for a healthy discussion and that's we intend to get. Thanks have a good day. Edit 3: someone pointed out the Iranian hostage crisis in '79. Americans were killed by Muslims in Iran. For further reference check out for yourself or watch Argo (warning may not be completely true but does cover the material as it was intended to be.

  • I'm not a Muslim but I can tell you that Sharia Law was not written by Mohamed, it was written by upper class Muslims who wanted to "clarify" things that he said. All this extremist stuff isn't even from the Quaran Mohamed was actually against violence and only fought when it was necessary. At its core Islam is very anti violence and people use it to control others. It really isn't as crazy strict as the countries today practice.

            • What the -blam!- is this? I'm a Muslim and anybody who claims that we are violent by nature can go -blam!- themselves.

              • Learn from all these radicals ( every religion) . keep your religion to yourself. Stop expecting other people to conform to your ways. And stop hating people for having a different opinion. We will all one day learn the truth for better or worse in death. Signed a Christian that does not push my views on others.

              • Any religion has it's fanatics. Islam is just the focus du jour. Christians have their own breed of fanatical violent nutcases, as do all religions. Well, most at least have a few. So can we all PLEASE move on past the idiotic religious hatred?

                    • Religions are never how religions are supposed to be. There will always be someone that uses religion to fit their own agenda and their own beliefs.

                          Mohammad was a war mongering pedo. He believed his "loving" god wanted him to kill unbelievers and force Islam down the world's throat.

                          • Look i welcome a healthy discussion and sharing points of view. I am a muslim and i have to be honest . You see many idiots claims to be muslims and misinterprut the quran start acting stupidly and violently. Brain washed idiots dont represent islam . Muslims are the ones to blame for the bad image they have. In the middle east they are 3rd world countries. I swear people are sooo living in the past and refuse to move forward. They mix traditions and their clans habbits with relegion . Therefore giving a distorted picture of the relegion . Bin laden shit and now isis and this crap is bullshit. Muslims are killing each other. Forming a new muslim regimes. As a muslim i follow and believe the quran and the prohet's teaching and explanation of the quraan verses. The quran warns about these idiots. They dont represent the true and genuine muslims. I want them dead more than anyone. But the media in the states is a great power also. But it is the retarted muslims fault for this. Funny example : a person i know refused to fasten his seatbelt in the car because it is shamful and a sign of cowardness. Not wearing it is a sign for braveness and if he died its bcoz God wanted so . Wearing it or not. But he aont due a coward. Do you see how they mix their foolishness with islam ? Freaking idiots

                            • If you follow the link, you'll see my attempt to initiate this users faith with my own faith. The object of the thread was for "anyone" to simply "ask a Muslim anything" and he had affirmed that he'd answer serious questions, well, seriously. I guess he doesn't have as much faith in his belief as he had previously regarded, or he doesn't take his faith seriously altogether. The appeal that I approached him with was not to urge a specific answer bc if we all could urge the answers we want out of life, there would be no mysteries, but rather that I was confident in the answers my belief gives me (the same outlook he had). faith is not meant to be a mystery. And that prospect should apply for all religions. As you can see, he blatantly avoids direct inquisition and curiosity, although one would likely misconstrue it as bigoted or even on the offence. Needless to say, I didn't get any answers from this slanderous deceiver. Call me arrogant, but I knew he couldn't answer the question I asked. Not that it was rigged or contextual or even unreasonable, but because when someone's faith is tested, the darkness is tested by the light. Notice I didn't specify any specific faith. This is because we are all subject to trail, ridicule, and most importantly, we are to be held accountable for our actions and beliefs that we proclaim. Does that mean I hold a single Islamist accountable to the massacres happening in it's name today? No. I don't hold a majority accountable either. One must understand the consequences of suffering and and being oppressed. backlash is indeed a consequence of spiritual infancy, oppression, and a vengeful heart but it's a consequence nonetheless. You also see this backlash with modern atheists in today's society as well. Perceived to be vise versa, atheism is shrinking on a global spectrum while religion, on the other hand, is exploding exponentially. Not just the crazies in the religious sphere, but more so the traditionalists. Atheists don't have long so they're making a hard push for science so it can be pronounced the only perceivable truth of the material world, being that there's no existence after the blimp of time you get here on earth. Religion is not what's wrong with the world. religion is adapting to the world of modernity and intellectual growth that it hasn't face since the beginning of it's time and is a substantial part of life for regions abroad, even I'm todays era. Atheism is not what's wrong with the world. So what is the problem? If you go to the doctor with a sore throat, a skin infection, pink eye, diarrhea and without hesitation they diagnose it as something that you ate. although the outlook seems to lean that way, it does not justify the dismissive tendency to address all issues individually, of eachother, and then collectively, which is mostly necessary. I guess in closing, we need to find a way to communicate about all of these topics of discussion in the public sphere. And communication, or miscommunication rather, seems to be the common means for indifference and intolerance. Funny how the only way to project yourself into the world in today's society is via internet communication, beit Twitter, Instagram, other blog type sites and apps. Miscommunication and misinformation, when these two base concepts are taken for granted, the impact on society is, and will be, not revitalizing but merely devastating to the psychology of the society that holds what is false to be true. God bless all of you who read the entirety of this post. Peace be to you from the father above. Peace to those who rebuke my efforts and proclamations of faith. Moreover, I plea for Gods mercy over the soul of the non believer. [spoiler]sorry about the length but points needed to be made.[/spoiler]

                                      • Some are violent some aren't just like Christian, atheist, and other religions. I think the biggest thing is, is that when they are violent, they are far more violent than other religions.
