    Why is the car being reported as a Hyundai I40 when it's a IX35 suv yoke. Fake news

    Its not quite "questioning" Islam, though, is it?

    You didn't refer to anything specific so I don't know?

    Sometimes it seems to me that criticism of Islam and even Islamism, is taken as criticism of and dislike of Muslims.

    Why do I need to point to such a post for you where do I allude to such an accusation made by anyone here on this thread. It clearly states don't speculate so do not dare comment on any of my posts again in any such way, I did not say anyone here stated that every Muslim was or is a terrorist, you should be kicked off this site for making a comment such as this towards me.

    Let's recap the events of tonight so far - people assumed someone was the attacker, yet he was in prison at the time, but because they didn't wait for credible sources, they just took it as gospel truth, someone else, who shall remain nameless as I can't be arsed typing it out, attested that the IRA aren't terrorists, and a photo of a random woman taken out of context was used as a symbol for the poster's ignorance.

    And yet, the people who say to wait are the embarrassing ones.

    *sigh* stay classy, you guys.

    Not all muslims throw gays off buildings, like not all christians think its 'intrinsically disordered"

    I am against the death penalty, are you?

    Yes, I'm against it because people get it wrong even if certain people are deserving of such a fate.

    God told a group of people to kill those particular people. The Bible doesn't say "Christians should kill non-believers" or anything of the sort. Christianity is about believing in Jesus, that's it. Catholicism is a pagan religion full of violence. Not Christian at all.

    The first line is exactly the line of "logic" islamic terrorists use. Just those particular people refers to a wider group for them.

    The rest I am leaving in the quote simply to highlight the fact that you posted it.

    You know there is a serious argument to be had about Islam modernising. It is however quite impossible to have it properly when scream down that it is evil all the time. I mean here in this thread we have someone saying Catolicism is a pagan religion and someone else saying liberalism is a mental disorder. At what point is anyone expecting a half way sensible debate here anymore.

    Yes liberals believe in the modernisation of Islam but it would be a lot easier to seriously have it without people screaming that muslims should be banned and the like (ref: Donald Trump).

    Worth noting that they kill far more Muslims in terror attacks and also in straight up military actions.

    It's comforting to see Islam has so many defenders - well done. As salamu Alaykum

    It is in all likelihood a lone wolf of middle eastern origin- what does that mean? All of Islam is evil?

    can you find where I mentioned that dont remember saying it?:confused::confused::confused:

    Not all muslims are evil. The problem is the quran contains certain teachings that are evil and those that follow them are evil? But tell me again how I'm just being racist...

    Firstly, it is not a valid comparison. Being Irish means you were born in Ireland. Some people felt the only way to remove the British army from Ireland was violence and they joined the IRA.

    Being a Muslim means you voluntarily chose to follow a book - the Quran. You have a choice over religion, not your nationality. The Quran has over 110 verses telling Muslims to kill non-Muslims. When you voluntarily subscribe yourself to a religion that teaches that violent sh*t, I'm going to call you a violence loving scumbag.

    Secondly, to claim the IRA are terrorists is to claim that the British army were the victims. Get the **** out with that ****.

    Considering the fact that the RUC and British soldiers murdered innocent people and abused Catholics, I think it's ridiculous that anyone can claim the IRA were terrorists for using violence against those genocidal bastards.

    The British Army were serving in Northern Ireland which is part of the United Kingdom.

    It would help if people realised that a Muslim killed people today because the Quran said to.

    So why don't all Muslims kill non Muslims then?

    The Bible tells us to kill people. Don't forget that.

    I don't like extreme muslims, I don't like extreme christians, I don't like extreme anything! Well maybe extreme fishing... (don't like that either)

    But moderates should be allowed live their religion in peace and not be demonised for it!

    Quote me the evil verses, and detail where you learned your scholarly explanation.

    I can't touch the Quoran in work, doesn't bother me.

    Jesus boards.ie really brings out some head cases.

    You should see Mohammed boards.uk

    This is a worrying time for London right now. People just out doing things they may do at the same time every day and because of the actions of one person if you can call him that lives are changed forever. I'll never understand why things like this happen and never will. I only hope that the survivors will be ok and that the families of the people who were murdered will be able to get on with their lives as best as they can. If it can happen in London could it happen here?

    Yes I do realise that actually. How does that in any way negate the point that Islamic fanatics are bad?

    Forget about the extremists, would you say the integration of people from terror prone regions in recent years has been successful?

    According to this respected poll, the clear majority of Europeans want to stop Muslim immigration entirely. Right or wrong, according to that poll, that's what people want. What do you think the reasons are for that?

    https://www.chathamhouse.org/expert/comment/what-do-europeans-think-about-muslim-immigration

    Another poll, from 2016 surveyed Muslims in the UK and found that over 50% of think homosexuality should be illegal and 25% want Sharia law.

    https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2016/apr/11/british-muslims-strong-sense-of-belonging-poll-homosexuality-sharia-law

    The problem isn't immigration, the problem is the people coming from such regions fail to integrate and have vastly different views than civilized society. A society we've worked hard to build.

    But you know it so well, so you an quote me the verses.

    I can tell you the anti gay bits in the bible...

    Things like this help explain, though not justify, what happened in London. Easy propaganda for the brainwashers.

    An airstrike by the US-led coalition against Islamic State on a school west of the Syrian city of Raqqa has killed at least 33 people, many of whom had fled nearby fighting, sparking further concerns that new rules of engagements may be causing an increase in civilian casualties.

    The attack follows a separate US strike on a mosque complex in the north-west of the country last Saturday that killed at least 52 people. The incident triggered fears that a White House-ordered review of rules governing the use of drones had already given military planners more flexibility on ordering strikes.

    It doesn't, Islamic fanatics are bad and need to be eradicated somehow. My point is against the people who are basically saying all Muslims are basically Islamic fanatics when in fact they are the largest victims of them

    I agree completely but to deny we have a problem is completely dishonest. Again not saying I have the answers but its not going to get better unless something is done. Islam needs an enlightenment and ultimately, like other major religions, to be left in the past where it belongs

    Exactly word for word what some of us have been saying about Islam

    "Islam is not a violent religion"

    Explain why the founder Mohammad was a paedophile terrorist then, and explain the 110+ violent Quran verses, explain why women are stoned for being rape victims. Explain why homosexuals are put to death. This is ALL in the Quran, you know, the book of Islam. Islam wouldn't exist without the Quran.
