Is this another one of those porkies, do you think? Do you think FD's trying to set Muhammed up as some kind of Muslim deity?

Reply #214 - Jul 20^th, 2015 at 2:27pm If you mean - does FD twist my, and other muslim's words and outright make crap up to incriminate muslims - the answer is yes. Just look at the wiki. And yes, he does seem to genuinely believe that muslims see Muhammad as a deity. This required some expert navigation around all my explanations clearly indicating the contrary.

Okay. So FD was being stupid and not mendacious. No worries. But we both know FD will repeat this line again, despite being educated on the subject by a Muslim.

FD used to be really keen on extracting the views of Muslims. Now he just wants to make things up. FD seems to be degenerating further and further from the 2007 FD. He's come to mirror his old nemesis, Sprint. FD will be calling to castrate them next - if he hasn't already.

FD is a textbook study on the thin veneer of civilization. Humanist values, it seems, can decay if they're not regularly reinforced. Reason, justice, liberty, the pursuit of truth - all have been happily discarded in the quest for smear. No one demonstrates the idea that the Enlightenment is over more than FD. Once, questions were asked to search for answers.

Now, a question is just a question.

Occupational hazard of being raised in the catholic faith. we cop the holy trinity of god/jesus/holy spirit who are all the same being according to our doctrine.
Some of us possible get confused between the catholic dogma and the Islamic dogma of Muhammad as a prophet. Gotta cut us some slack

True, but the entire point of Islam is that God is one being, not three. Muslims make a good case that Jesus, a prophet, was turned into God himself. Their ban on images of Muhammed is an attempt to do away with all those plaster saints and phony rituals.

Unfortunately, Muslims have turned the ban of Muhammed's image into a dogma in itself - blasphemy. Forbid something, and it becomes fetishized. Plenty of Muslims get sexually attracted by the sight of skin through a burqa.

If you leave any dogma in place without question for a reasonable time, it will become a hanging offence to go against it. Over time, dogma becomes an internalized, instinctual reaction. It's taken FD 8 years to get to the level he's at now. Unblinking, unflinching anti- Muslim dogma past the point of any call to logic. FD is now incapable of this.

Just think, if it can take an educated liberal-thinking person like FD 8 years to get past the point of no return, imagine what it must do to communities over generations.

Whats really ironic is how FD's freeeeedom threatens actual freedom.

Its trully a sight to behold reading his stirring Churchillian 'fight them on the beaches' defence of freedom at all costs in the face of the muslim horde, only for him to show the greatest of indifference to (say) the prospect of the nation's parliament rubber stamping the stripping of citizenship on a ministerial whim, or making it a gaolable offense for journalists to report on a past ASIO operation. - And then claiming with a straight face that muslims pose the greatest threat to our freedoms.

Don't beat yourself up - you've come a long way: you used to call us "Muhammadens" - assuming that Muhammad was just the tinted man's version of Jesus.

Any criticism of Islam will be presented as 'smear', 'racism', 'Islamophobia'

Whenever Islam inspire=s some atrocity, noticing the Islamic motivation is immediately painted as 'smear'.

Islamic State? No Islam to see here.

Iran, Saudi, Pakistan, Labia, Egypt, Tunesia etc? No Islam to see here either, move on, it's just individuals exercising their personal freedoms.

Caliphate, ummah, sharia, nioqab, hijab, Ramadan, hall cerfication, radicalised youths going off to jihad, jihad itself -nah, no Islam to see here either, all just Western constructs to smear Muslims who, of course, have nothing to do with Islam.

Attacking and killing cartoonists, writers in the nm of Islam and Mohmmed - no Islam to see hr either.

Islam's role MUST not be recognised, named, discussed under any cicumstances because that is smear, racist, Islamophobic smear. Not all 1.6 billion Muslims chop heads 24/7 -therefore no Islam to see her.

Islam is its own crazy, angry, irrational, reality-denying caricature - but of course, it has nothing to do with Islam.

Soren would you at least be honest enough to admit that you take the attitude that Islam's role MUST not be recognised, named, discussed under any circumstances - when we are talking about the good deeds and good will shown by muslims - even if they cite Islam as their motivation for their good deeds?

Can you explain to me how this is not a double standard?

Even when it’s a lie? I’ve asked FD about this. He refuses to say.

You? Oh yes, you won’t say either.

Mind you, you’ve never been a very big fan of human rights, old boy. The Enlightenment? So passe. Tyranny is the new freedom, eh? Lies are the new truth. Do you know what you are, dear boy?

You’re a postmodernist. University of Balogney, innit.

What is new in Islam as far as 'good deeds' are concerned, Gandy??

Nothing.

NOT

being a murderous, intolerant bastard demanding submission on pain of death is not an Islamic invention.

Islam has brought nothing that is new AND good.
