    In my moderator's role, I've already given a reminder to dead one on another thread to debate the posts, not attack the posters, so to preserve impartiality I'm going to have to give the same reminder here: robust discussion of the contents of posts is fine, but personal comments about individual posters are not.

    Sorry, thank you for at giving me this fair warning, but I wasn't aware it appeared as an attack :( I don't have any disrespect for the user or Islam, I was just expressing how I disagree with the idea.

    He never claimed that he wanted to be licked, he was just pointing out a scientific fact; if you are in the presence of harmless germs found in animals such as dogs it will most likely help your immune system as your body get used to contact with such germs. And I'm pretty sure most people "eat dead animals" eg: Lamb, pork, chicken..
    dead animal, are you kidding, Muslim don't eat dead animals and pork, it is also sickness. Start A new thread about pork i will show you the same thing why pigs eating isn't allowed in Islam. See, Dear Science isn't absoulte, we believe what God has reveled is absolute. God is creator and what he knows may science will know it in next 200 centuries.

    I don't understand why people like you feel the need to tell everybody who does not share your faith that they are wrong when scientific knowledge backs up their opinion and your are challenging it with claims from 1500 years ago. Why would you "lolzzzz" at it? If I, a non Islamic person, was to call you wrong in a different argument and "lolzzzz" at what you think you would call me racist or ignorant.
    I am lolling, because how could an animal that eat its own sh!t improve your immune system. How could an animal do that... Is it the science you believe.

    no of course not, other than them releasing statements claiming responsibility, then videoing themselves praising allah & quoting the quran as they hack someone's head off with a blunt knife whilst their helpless victim lets out gurgling screams of agony.
    have you seen any drama, if not then you must see the one, In a darama, suppose their is an actor, He is playing his role as muslim, Does it make him permanent muslim, does his praise for God make him musilm. The answer is no.. Same is case of youtube video, no one knows whether the people in the video are actors or real. I know it's very hard for you people to prove your points. But what can I do for you.

    Is it your excuse to keep a dog inside a house. I think it's real backwardness to allow such animal with in the premises of your house that shows some real issue to you and your family... See all the you tube videos which i have posted. They are shinning clear as crystal and now when there is no where to hide, I think it is very fair to attack on me. I like it very much.
    BTW: Did i hide anything?

    oh, that must be it. just like the dogs in your video's are just actors pretending to be dogs. :rolleyes:

    you know, you really do make it difficult to have an intelligent discussion with you when you don't feel any kind of need to constrain yourself with reality.

    reality is very harsh, dear vibe. I aint in delusion. After clear evidence that dogs sometimes eat their own sh!t, you have denied everything. You want to keep dogs with yourselves at every cost.. everything is now shining like crystal...

    i'm not denying anything, i'm perfectly aware that some dogs will eat their own ****, but you are condeming an entire species based on the actions of a few individuals and then condeming anyone who might keep dogs who disagrees with you to "sickness, pain and suffering" and have continued to persist in this lunacy throughout the thread in a staggering display of wilful ignorance of the facts despite being told otherwise by plenty of people who have lived with dogs their whole lives and who know infinitely more about them than you ever will because of your irrational fears and hatred.

    Muslims eat Halal Lamb etc. These animals have their throats slit whilst they are still alive. In many countries they are supposed to be stunned before this is done but Halal requires that the animal bleeds to death.

    But irrespective of the cruel & inhumane killing, Sheep are ruminants. So they regurgitate their food & chew it again. Dead one seems horrified at the idea of an animal eating it's faeces yet one could argue that Sheep eat their own vomit.

    By the way the vegetables & fruit that Dead one eats have also been defecated on - it's called nature.

    All of these "rules' were written thousands of years ago & it is ridiculous to apply them today.

    Why are you trying to reason with him? He's either a troll or a suicide bomber in the making

    Can you give me reference of any special species of dogs that don't eat its sh!t.
    I would be very grateful. I ain't condemning anything. I am saying if you have a reason to keep dog within your house then keep it. If there is no reason, then don't attached yourself to these dogs.

    by dead animals i mean, those animals that die with some natural cause. If an animal is already dead before slaughter then Muslims don't eat it.

    it goes to show how a simple thing gets into religion,the order of killing of dogs was a temporary order that served a timely need.dogs at that time were encouraged to eat from the garbage to rid people of it.and thus they developed a disease [al kalab].that resulted in a epidemic,the disease appeared again after the time of the propet.some scholars at the time decided that the only way to get rid of the epidemic as well as dogs was by making up hadiths,claiming that the prophet said dogs are impure, this fact contradicts with the proper hadith in albokhary which tells us that dogs used to walk freely in the prophets mosque

    dogs are a single species.

    but assuming you mean breed of dog, then yes I can, ANY breed of dog.

    yes, some individuals have been known to eat their own sh!t, but that doesn't mean that ALL dogs do it, any more than the 2 girls 1 cup video means that ALL humans eat their own sh!t and as I have been trying to explain as simply as possible, condeming all dogs because a tiny minority do something distateful is no better than condemining all muslims because of the heinous actions of a tiny minority.

    You can believe what you want about God or Allah, I'm not judging you on that. I never said Muslims, I said most people have eaten dead animals, and as already pointed out by somebody else, some Muslims enjoy eating lamb meat. This meat of course comes from a...dead animal.

    And what do you mean "you people" find it hard to understand? Just because most people on this thread are not Muslim it does not mean they are wrong and your opinion is correct, you may be correct but you cannot be sure of it.

    "I think it is very fair to attack on me. I like it very much." I am not trying to offend you or attack you, just engaging in a debate :o

    "Is it the science you believe" Short answer: Yes.

    I'm guessing he's not going to explain this in any coherent manner to you. What he's talking about is carrion, it's haram for Muslims to eat it.

    I am done now, in short i said, if you want to keep a dog within your house for a reason then there is nothing wrong in it but dog must be kept at its place. I am giving you the true content of Islam.

    you really are utterly f**king hilarious. :D

    your closing argument is a video that pretty much contradicts almost everything you've said in the last 10 pages of the thread and confirms pretty much everything everyone else has said.

    fair enough i guess, we formally accept your humble apologies for your incorrect views on dogs.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,097 ✭✭✭✭Discodog


    It kind of sums up Islam & most other religions in that one "scholar/priest" will say one thing & another may say something completely different. It's no wonder that young people can be lead towards extremist opinion.

    Read the very first reply. I am still standing on what i said, You are allowed to keep a dog in separate place for some reason like guarding your house etc. Otherwise islam doesn't allow
    BTW, Have you watched the video

    yes i have, and what he says and what you've been "preaching" throughout this entire thread are two completely different things. maybe YOU should watch the video. :rolleyes:

    Thanks for explaining that but I doubt much people actually eat carrion, or at least what I think of when I hear carrion :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,016 ✭✭✭✭vibe666


    you are very quiet today dead one, aren't you going to tell us again about the sickness, suffering and death that awaits anyone who keeps a dog?

    or did you finally decide to watch the video you posted and realise your irrational fears were just that and that you were wrong after 10 pages of us trying to tell you that your argument was invalid? :)

    down with that sort of thing? :D

    it just bugs me that people online will argue relentlessly to the bitter end about anything and everything they have an opinion of because they feel they have that protective armour of (a certain amount of) anonymity online to hide behind because they don't actually have to debate an issue face to face with those they disagree with, but then they just feck off and stop posting when they finally realise they were wrong rather than having the balls to actually admit it and apologise.

    ah well, c'est la vie i guess. he's far from the first and nowhere near the last. :)

    Exactly :P And well put! I really don't see why dead one couldn't reply to us or explain the last video he gave us that completely contradicted his own argument :confused:

    so, in closing, dogs are permitted in islamic residences as long as you have a legitimate use for one (i.e. protection, but that would be anyone really), it doesn't sleep in your bed and you don't treat it like paris hilton would and mollycoddle it.

    the only special precautions you need to take (assuming you are a muslim) is IF you feed a dog from a bowl you would use yourself at a later time it needs to be properly cleaned (or cleansed) in a specifically islamic way, washed 7 times, once with clean earth etc. and you are okay if a dog licks your hand or touches your clothes.

    so, given the above, corkfeen an the rest of us dog keeping heathens have nothing to worry about from keeping dogs and despite what some people would have us believe, sickness and death do not actually await us. phew, that was close! :)

    Well only until another expert or scholar pronounces that dogs are the devil incarnate. Given the nature of every religion one can usually find an expert who will support your view.

    so discodog, that means we can pet you and you can come in the house finally for disco's and stuff. :D

    For some it just depend on interpretation and experience, my husband grew up a Muslim in a Muslim country, we were watching a documentary on wild dogs on eden tonight and he was reminiscing with me, about all the pet dogs they had at home over the years :)
