Post by: Nietzsche - Thread: Is Yoga Hinduism?

dharma66 has reported a post.

Reason:

In the post, the poster states, as a fact, that mist Muslims will just kill non believers.

I do not feel that this is acceptable in any way, in any context. Especially not when with virtually no context, and presented as if a simple undisputed fact.

Whilst I am all for freedom of speech, I believe a line has to be drawn before such hateful remarks. If someone said this in public in the UK, they would, quite rightly in my view, be investigated in regards to the possibility of facing a charge of inciting religious hatred.

I find the comment offensive in the extreme.

As for Christianity, I stopped being tolerant several years ago, after being pursued by missionaries for 2 years, listening to the ignorant opinions of many Christians, reading unbiased accounts history from which it is clear that Christianity was/still is the most destructive religion, digging up ridiculous amounts of Christian hate speech during my soul-searching moments, and what not.

As for Islam, my scorn for it is only a year old. I used to be tolerant of it and even denounced those who depicted Islam as a violent religion that sanctions terrorism. At one point, I wanted to learn Hebrew and Arabic and Sanskrit (I only know Hindi, some Latin and Spanish) and delve more extensively into the Q’uran, Torah, and other Hindu scriptures. Then I quit my sensationalism, took a step back, and viewed the world around me with unglazed eyes. What I have found is this:

  1. Majority of Muslims and Christians are intolerant.
  2. Most Muslims will just kill non believers. Christians will manipulate them and make their prospective converts into a shell and mockery of what they were and stood for.
  3. The only tolerant followers of Abrahamic religions are Jews.
  4. Even if Muslims and Christians are nice to you, they always have “holier-than-thou” attitudes and think you’re ignorant.
  5. Mother Teresa is famous because she is white and Christian and the stereotype of a Christian Westerner helping poor pagans appealed to the masses. Other organizations are far superior than the organization that she has founded, more altruistic, and actually USE THE MONEY THEY HAVE BEEN GIVEN for helping the poor, and actually have BETTER facilities for helping the poor, DON’T REINFORCE LIES about her divinity. Look up Ramakrishna Mission.
  6. Intolerance is simply growing in the U.S and the West due to attacks of Islamic radicals, falling economies, and etc.
  7. No Christian/Muslim has ever been truly enlightened or is/was ever tolerant. Even you Thomas, though are the most tolerant Christian I’ve met, have this subconscious sense of pity for non-believers simply because of their faith.
  8. Countless other things that I do not want to waste more time to say.
