Lol, the Middle East in many parts is generally like this despite what people think and has been like this for a while And this is why I go on about how you lot should just ignore the media and its wild representation of Muslims, because it hardly reflects how Muslims practice their faith today

I use the essence of Islam and do engage in the rituals of Islam, and I believe in God, but I have 'ditched' some of the patriarchal sentiments because as far as I am concerned, it does not apply today But other than that, ye pretty much

Things change, and things are applied differently. It is not possible to maintain a 1400 year old lifestyle to the bone today. And this is widely accepted by many Muslims, and it is only expected. And to add to that, Australian law forbids polygamy, and I live by the law of the land. If a...

Um yeah, 1400 years later That was then, this is now That was them, this is me

No, not really. Despite what you say and think, and what others maintain, to me Islam is a personal experience. There is the main essence of Islam and the five fundamental pillars that tie people together but everything inbetween can be disputed and is disputed. Polygamy was adopted by many...

ooft Of course fucking not. The majority of Muslims are ashamed by the Danish loons who couldn't handle a fucking picture. No, sorry Yolanda, that is not the case at all. Muslims do not decide whether others are Muslims and are not in any position to 'judge' a person's faith however that...

Was it one all? Omg, I wish I wasn't lazy and just turned the tv on. I missed out.

You can't deny the role of the media in misrepresenting Muslims.

bada bing bada boom my friend For example, there are those who believe that the Quran states a woman should wear the hijab, however, others argue that women are only told to dress modestly (and men too). Tats are bad, no tats are okay. Smoking is forbidden, nah smoking is fine etc etc etc...

Wow. You actually and genuinely believe this...for fuck's sake, I will not even. You are a male Pauline Hanson. Mentally and physically.

he only wants more life, fucka

I feel satisfied at the thought that your sleep will be destroyed.

Islam IS barbaric guys no questions not listening blocks ears

And those people who carry out barbaric acts that are not Muslim, or those who do not adhere to any religion...what motivates them?

I would rather be an accepting and open Muslim who understands the notion of each to their own in terms of religion, sexuality etc than be a narrow-minded and hateful Atheist that unjustifiably labels a people and their religion scum re this thread

Yes, pretty much. I know many Orthodox Muslims who adhere to Islamic principles and guidelines strongly and are very kind and peaceful people who understand 'each to their own'. Here is the thing. Islam is not barbaric, or at least, not as barbaric as you think. You make it seem as though all...

Fireflies look really pretty from afar when they are lit up but up close they are not so pretty

My mind is me so 'they' cannot be two separate entities therefore me and my mind was a fallacious statement therefore I need help

Me and my mind
