Same with Christianity. Familiarize yourself with history and you will find that Christians did worse things back in the day compared to what isis has done so far. #Spanishinquisition for example. Religion is a plague that needs to be eradicated. How a grown man or woman can believe in angels is just amazing to say the least.


WHICH IS MORE VIOLENT:
The Bible or the Quran?

"...here is the transcript of a very interesting broadcast on March 18 2010 on National Public Radio (NPR), as well as a book excerpt from the author of the book that NPR used for the story.

The audio of the program is also available at the link below. Despite the provocative title, it is nonetheless very interesting, and something of a surprise that this was broadcasted on a nationally syndicated station in America"


http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=124494788


Guess what? It turned out the Bible is way more violent than the Quran.

For those who would not bother to go through the broadcast (despite it's authenticity), the conclusions were drawn from NATURE and CAUSES of those various war fought by Christianity and Islam in the early ages.

While one was fighting in pure defence of its beliefs and existence, the other kept pushing forward for conquest in evangelism.

Use ur head bro. Nigeria is a multi religion country. No one religion can act as if it's solely hers. The scenario u quoted is quite different from this particular one.
Its wrong for any government in Nigeria to act as if Nigeria belongs to one religion by becoming a member of Islamic countries or Christian country if there is anything like that is wrong. Individuals in the country can choose whatever they want but because the president is a Muslim or Christian now decides to Islamic or christianise the country whose population cut across different religious groups is not right, unconstitutional and illegal.

Back to the issue on this thread, what the Saudi scholar is asking for doesn't make sense. Fifa belongs to everybody. It's not labeled Islamic nor Christian. Players join and celebrate in ways that suits them. Muslim players kneel down to pray when they score while Christians make signs of the cross when the score too. And some Muslims and Christians don't even make any signs when they score simply because you are not compelled to. So what is the point he's making?

Are Muslims marginalized? Are they prevented from making signs of the moon? No. So what's the point?
Apt piece. I doff my hat to you.

What stops you from retaliating by not wishing them anything during their eid



Most of his followers faulted him before you
So are you criticising him or the people who faulted him



Because the Hijab is compulsory for women
It will be silly for you to discourage people from practising their religion because of sports
No sensible muslim will for instance participate in BBN



Islam is actually more realistic than Christianity because it recognises human psychology and make allowance for it
There is no Christian nation without a Military
Yet you claim you turn the other cheek; so what are the arms for?
Now when you go into war, what rules will you follow? What will guide your actions
(smiles) Let me educate you a bit. I'm sure you are aware of one of the memory verses (the 2nd of the 10 commandments) found in Mark 12:31 that 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' ....sure you do!.Just to answer your 1st question


Secondly, you asked if i'm criticizing him or those that faulted him (very funny) the question should be; Does it reflect the claims of Islam being a religion of peace. I'm quite sure you wouldnt say thats a sign of a peace-advocating religion.Would you?......be honest with yourself

Thirdly, you said Islam is more realistic than Christianity (you see what we are saying). What makes a religion whose doctrines revolve around enmity (which ofcourse is as a result of inferiority complex) to other religions, particularly Christianity simply because of its global reach and practice which makes Christianity the most practiced religion in the world.
Let me tell you this if you dont know, no Christian has got time, not even a second to think about what your religion is about let alone think of making a dumb, insensitive, primitive and shallow view as that of your so called 'scholar's' argument.Maybe they need to read well in order to distinguish between a scholar and a Cleric instead of giving themselves laughable accolades like 'Scholar'.

You made a very funny point by referring to BBN of which i see as absolutely ridiculous. My ideals about decency are strong and based on this will tell you that I never supported the show. Also, let me ask you ask a question; Do you think any Christian would go about killing people with the name of God

I wont be surprised if you become confrontational because its a well defined characteristic of YOUR RELIGION

In ad much I am.not a Muslim I think it is wrong to use the view or views of a particular person to condemn a religion please there is freedom of speech
Though my own opinion is that they should ban hidjab instead as it is more dangerous concealing bombs and disguising criminals compared to the sign of the cross that is yet to do any harm

Mr Atheist, God will not apologise to you for creating and sustaining your life.
What men have done in the name of God doesn't soil His glory but is accounted them.
Make you no purge belle because you no hear any name called God.

God is an ever-receding pocket of scientific ignorance, that is getting smaller and smaller as time goes on. Do you know what that means? The bible tells you that a rainbow is a sign from God to remind him not to destroy the world again meanwhile we now know that is a meteorological phenomenon that is caused by reflection, refraction and dispersion of light in water droplets resulting in a spectrum of light appearing in the sky. You get my point now? When something cannot be explained by an ignorant mind it is "God's doing". But know this, the things that can't be explained are getting smaller and smaller by the day. There is no God. What you all consider to be God are just questions that have not been answered yet.

If the Islamic Cleric is from Libya or Saudi Arabia or Nigeria or Iraq or Kuwait or from a major oil-producing Islamic country, be rest-assured that making sign of the Cross in FIFA-organized games shall be banished immediately. Money rules the hearts of many capitalist countries. The welfare of their citizens comes first before any other considerations.

FIFA can even allow only Muslim prayers be said in FIFA-organized games.

That's the world ruled by Western Nations for us.

And you think men haven't? Mohamed, Hitler, Herod and many more from time. Likewise many women have also fostered peace and unity. Why judge women like men never did same thing? Besides, men were created smart according to story so how did women with fish brain succeed in damaging so much through men with human brains?
But for real, the problem we face now would never be solved by shifting blame. It will not help and has never helped anyone.

If you purge yourself of hypocrisy... Maybe then you will start making sense... Is Nigeria, Pakistan, Iran or Saudi? We have Christians Majority... Muslim Majority... Traditional practioners... which is the authentic African religion. Before all this western philosophies in the name of religion... How do you dig that ... Nigeria doesn't belong to your religion alone... So learn to tolerate and accommodate or.... seclude or exile yourself.
