Rilwayne001 friendchoice etc pls come here and tell us how tolerance and peace is bedrock of ur religion. Wat are they afraid of. They know dat if they give christianity a chance then islam foundation which is saudi will be shaken. I dont know how human beings can be part of such a barbaric religion dat demands beheading of people. To the extent they even devoted a square for d sole purpose of stoning and beheading people. No wonder nothern cabals are sponsoring BH to ensure dat these practices are srt up in d north Tufiakwa. 1 Like |

zionmade: Rilwayne001 and friendchoice will tell you that they understand Islam better than the Islamic scholars in Saudi Arabia who promulgated those intolerant laws. They will tell you that the custodians of the religion misinterpreted the Koran and it is them that have a better understanding of it. Bunch of retarded hypocrites. |
