If anyone talk negatively abt atheism u wil fly to christianity and vice versa.

If u dont take tym i wil hack and expose all ur nairaland history wher u use several usernames just to lie against Islam. I pity ur life. U ar beta dan dis na. Who instigated u to change ur gudnes. U should utilise ur brain in promoting serenity

rastamouse: Hey Logicboy...its been quite a while and I am glad that it was rather 'you' and not any of 'us' who brought this topic up. I know many people will be wondering what I mean by 'you' and 'us'...

There is so much division in this world and I think unless those are addressed, this world will never have any tangible peace. Contrary to what some people love to always say, RELIGION IS NOT AND HAS NEVER BEEN THE ONLY PROBLEM. Rather it is mankind's desire to have his way, no matter what the consequence, that has caused all the problems that we have today.

Whenever I read the usual hate-filled posts of Ghanaians vs Nigerians and vice versa on this forum, part of me laugh and the other part wonder if majority of us think better than animals do. In the animal kingdom, it is always 'us' against 'them'. There are certainly no middle grounds. An enemy is always an enemy. A cat will hardly appreciate anything that a mouse does. That is very much understandable of animals. Should the same be true for mankind?

Why would a 12-year-old arab call a jew his enemy or a Christian brand every Muslim a terrorist? Why should you blindly hate someone because your father did? The funny thing is that we find a way to always divide ourselves with things that may not be necessary. Politics, tribalism, race, class, football, religion, school, type of car, language we speak, currency we use etc etc. In all these madness, we have forgotten the most important thing that unites us- man made in the image of GOD! Is this not ridiculous?

Why should we always find an excuse to kill ourselves?

Do christians kill

dederocs:
mazaje is correct,muslims follow hadiths blindly cos they were born into the faith...they have no choice to discern and choose.such a miserable life of mind numbness.
This is false. Muslims are not all mindless zombies.
I had a feeling the thread would be filled with anti-Islamic hate speech immediately I read the OP.
Please mind your words, don't let your hatred for Muslims lead you to uttering false statements.

vedaxcool: Wow, this is essentially illogical rants:

1. El Rufia tweets got to how many? Compared to the thisday publication?at least nairaland which has a greater reach than el rufia tweet followers, yet no muslim have ever engage in riot what so ever, because of the numerous blasphemy our ever so "tolerant" op engages in. The op indeed is an epic fail in this regard

2. Riots in the Northern part of the country is the hand work of street urchins who use it as a pretext to loot the property of non muslims.

3. Whenever Government is willing to do something about the poverty situation in the north, riots will definately be a thing of the past!

4. Most Northern elite prefer to do nothing about poverty in the north! Mazaje claims to be Hausa man who has 1 miilion dols in his account yet the money is preferably left in a bank account than helping the poor, sadly this is how most so called northern muslim elite have preferred the status quo to be maintained, poverty in the north is the $ajor fuel for conflict that is why you rarely hear of such in places like Saudi, Qater, the UAE etc!

5. The op lies when he assumes nothing is being done by muslims especially in this regards towards fighting extremism (imagine the ignoramus calling BH fundamentalism when clearly it is extremism) of course the OP has never attended any mosque in the north to know any of what is being done.

6. Strong government, until the government deal with the criminals who go about killing non muslims, the isssue will keep repeating itself, government has sowed impunity by not metting out punishment to this criminal elements. Of course our "tolerant" op really does not know what he is talking about!

In your post you fail to include the actions of Iran, Pakistan or Egypt? or are they not part of what the Op is preaching against?
You also said that the op has never attended a mosque in the north for him to know what effort they have made to create peace? I will tell you this; if majority of the northern Muslims that attend mosque daily still engage in greater, yes greater violence due to the said blaspheming? then it will be pertinent to say that Imam in Northern mosque preach hate of non Muslims instead of the opposite. wink

And this people u call criminaLs will say "May Allah's name be praised" before they kill,slaughter or detonate a bomb and u call them criminals. My dear let's stop deceiving ourselves. Christains where killed in the heat of riots when Sharia Law was opposed by minority christains in kaduna.

Of course, only intellectually re-tarded people are ignorant of the existence of God. And the letter reads like something written by a child in primary school and cannot even come close to my first prize winning essay at the age of 13 in a major Pop magazine national essay competition.

1. the christian dont even have the morall right to say anything. they ridicule jesus more than anyone. if your letter is to address extremissm in islam, welcome idea and very good. the riots that broke out as a results of past event are unislamic and evil in themselves. religious extremism is saomething that cant be eradicated. qur'an warns about extremism in the religion, it leads to nothing but hell. people get so sensitive and emotional and they go mad about it. just because people are muslims, that doesnt mean they will do the right thing. someone always prayed behind the prophet, when he died, the pray didnt pray for him because he was an hypocrite, hypocrite dont go to paradise (may ALLAH save us from it).

2. islam has made things clear, it is people who chose to interpret it they way they like. during the last kaduna crisis, one youth said even if an imam says they shouldnt go on rampage, they will kill the imam too. most of this youth a drug addict who dont even read the Qur'an. it is the responsiblity to ensure law and order. u can eradicate religion if u like, people will result to something else to hurt others, WWII and the rwanda genocide were not religon related but cause huge number of deaths all because they dont share common ideology

3. making no cause for extremism but making a cause that they will be and the government needs to do something. pakistan is entirely muslims but did that stop the country from having issues within themselves, in iraq 2. iran and saudi and many other gulf state are calm because are calm because the government in place is working to curb extremism. where they protest in thses state about burning of the quran? yes but very peaceful unlike pakistan where the govt has failed.
4. your letter should be address to the nigeria government, most especialy the northern state.

5.as for the tweet, el rufai's tweet. first el rufai didnt generate the tweet but most christian chose to ignore that though acknowleged. insulting jesus by christians is form of business. authors have made money from it and comdians as well but christians refuse to acknowledge, the change the topic when u tell them this. they all noise is about el rufai himself, if el rufai had not mentioned the tweet, i swear this issue wont come up, so i ask is it ok for christain to ridicle jesus? how many of you have head about corpus christi (a play dipicting jesus as gay), not many i guess, google is ur friend.

6. a lot of blasphemous things have been said about jesus and it appears to be norm, no big deal, its acceptable but i guess muslims should stay clear.

7. the reply above i know has mistakes, no time to prof read.

"Gearge bush and Barack obama" why the world does not called them terorist? also here in nigeria on the last 3yrs back sallah day in jos nigeria million of muslims were massacre by xtians, in recent shorting atack on one primary sch in USA which killed many innocent sch. chidrens, who dose the shorting? was he a muslim No!! he was a xtian e.t.c so many to mentioned but due to time factor i was unable to brought everything on board but with those little things i had mentioned you would be able to noticed that bad eggs are found everywhere in every relions beyound your imagenation why? putting all blames on muslims side only this is unjust against muslims and its very tedious Notice! you ppl should not level all muslims as terorist due to the inhuman act of some minority muslms pls. future respect.

Lol true but not in my case, I have tested my faith like swallowing poison in the name of jesus as commanded by jesus and nothing happened to me . . . In my name they shall cast demons, hold serpents and take poison . . . You christians don't disappoint in the highly "logically" way you present things grin grin grin, ally yourselves even with satanist, all we always get from you and your allies are amazing display of ignorance of how things are!

Any mature Christian understand perfectly what Christ was saying there and you can not be more than what you dont know. Cast out devils, step on serpent and take anything deadly are saying the same thing i.e Devil= Serpent (remember Eden) = Poison(Serpent). Christ is emphasizing the believers Authority and his dominion over Evil in that verse, those are the Hallmark of committed born again Christians.

What more evidence do you want?. . .A teacher was killed in Gombe by her students becaused they accused her of desecrating the koran, a riot broke out in university of maiduguri because a student claimed he saw parts of the koran in the toilet. A man named Gideon was baheaded in Kano because he was accused of desecrating the koran. A police man in kano was almost beating to death because he was accused of insulting the prophet. . Non muslims were killed in the North by muslims because of some cartoons published in Denmark. . .Miss world roits. . .The grand mufti of Saudi Arabia publicly declaring that islam should be the only religion in the Arabic peninsula and all churches should be destroyed because the propeht said only one religion should be practiced there. . .When will the supreme council of islam come together and publicly denounce sheik Shekau and his BH boys?They publicly condem GEJ for retireing or removing some senior muslim officers from service. Are unbelievers not referred to as "arna" by the average muslim in the north? Where do MOST religious crisis begin from and on what day?. . .

Why do police and the military escort muslims from their places of worship on fridays when ever there is tension in parts of the north? When was the last time you saw christians killing muslims because the name of Jesus was blasphemed?. . .Why are imams like sheik Gumi and co constantly preaching about of unbelievers? What exactly are you talking about and why are you telling LIES?. . .I repeat make sure you read the nonsense you type before posting. . .
so why are people given large sentences for anti-semitism? the fact that the west has 'modified' their teachings of christianity doesnt make it free from all these things you proclaim. are you not the ones that claim God promised the israelites the holy land, and so therefore you have to kill and drive out all the muslims from that place? what about all the killings due to heresy and 'the inquisition'? we know that some misguided muslims up-north kill, destroy and loot peoples properties using various guises, but christians are not exempt from this. as a northern christian you know what i am speaking about. as for the police escort, it is because the first crisis in jos started when the christians set up ambush for the muslims that had gone to pray on friday. it also happened on the way to the eid ground in rukuba where eye witnessess experienced volleys of bullets coming their way. as for preaching about non believers, i went to a christian school, and that was all they fed us with in class and church (they forced us to attend service). you claim muslims are intolerant, but why is it that there still exist christians in Egypt, Jews stayed for a longtime under ottoman rule, and our noble prophet signed alliances with christian and jewish groups during his lifetime. but as for christians, history knows that the early church was one of the most intolerant organisations that ever existed (burning at the stake). maybe i should ask you this question, why is it that northern christians hate muslims so much? we have lived peacefully over the years since my birth till i entered the university. is it inbuilt hatred? as for calling people infidels, it was started by the christians (actually read the dictionary meaning). and everyone knows boko haram is a terrorist group just like the lord resistance army is. muslims are sensitive about their religion, so just as anti-semitism is discouraged, muslims also dont encourage blasphemy against islam, though i dont condone any one taking laws into his own hand. if present day christians dont care what people say or do to their God or religion, thats their problem (though the early christians took it very seriously).
