Quote:abu - For muslims it IS a religious act
No more than a man wearing shorts that cover past his knee is...
It is not in and of itself a religious act. There is no religious signifigance attached to any specific article of clothing in Islam, just that clothing must cover the areas deemed nakedness.
I realise I'm banging my head against a brickwall here, since you simply don't possess the mental faculties required to comprehend these concepts.
You are a bitter little man driven by nothing but hate, and ironically you claim to follow Jesus (pbuh), who said "love thy enemy"...
Quote:Matthew 5:44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you
Like with yadda, you need to spend more time reading your Bible instead of jihadwatch and all the other garbage you fill your hateful mind with.
Quote:For us infidels wearing a scarf in subservience to muslims is an act of slavehood
There are plenty of Christians today who still do veil, Anabaptists for a start... Are they subservient to Islam?
Quote:jesus says nothing about it
The NT has quite a few quotes about covering hair for women...
Quote:1 Corinthians 11:5-6 But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with [her] head uncovered dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one as if she were shaven. For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered.
Also here is a common image Christians use to represent Mary (pbuh), the blessed mother of the Messiah (pbuh), and she is always wearing hijab...
Yet you dislike and hate such a modest attire? What would you say to the mother of the Messiah (pbut) if you saw her? Would you feel hatred and spite towards her for wearing hijab?
Yadda,
Quote:hat i will concede, is that today, Christians have corrupted themselves,
We could seriously examine such an explanation if the wiping out of non-Christian religions was occuring now in later times, but most of the crusades against heathens in Europe occured in the very early days of Christianity. What you're telling me then is that Christians have been corrupted from their very early days.. is this right? Were the heads and saints of the church who ordered these things also corrupt? In fact there's been no point in Europe's Christian history in which it wasn't dominating and wiping out all competition. IT _IS_ the modus operandi of Christianity, and the only thing that stopped it was that the atheists amongst your society siezed control and subdued you, so that you could do it no more. There was no self-imposed regret or remorse at the "corruption" that had supposedly set in, this WAS and IS the methodology of Christianity, you've just been painted into a corner and don't have the ability to carry it on today. But... we still do see the American army, trying to carry Christianity to the Muslim lands, on the barrel of a huge whopping tank gun no less..
Or how about this killing machine christened the "New Testament"
But no.. Christians wouldn't be doing that, would they? Christians are all peaceful and meek, love thy enemy etc.. except if your enemy doesn't love you (as most generally don't), then blow him to smithereens, right?
Hypocrites. At least Islam is honest about it's willingness to defend and stand up for itself, you guys are just self-deceiving habitual liars.
Your religion has a lot more blood on it's hands than you'd like to admit, and it's mounting more and more each day. These scumbags above are 'testament' to it.
