    When did that happen? Nobody was talking about them. We're more concerned about the Muslims that aren't good and why.

    That's the other problem people don't get. What Mormonism teaches is a lot different than what many Mormons believe. You didn't even know what the real history of polygamy and the LDS church was. Why? Because there's the official version of events and then the recorded history of events. You insisted on the official version of events because that's what the leaders keep feeding you. Unfortunatly the real history has been carefully maintained by the LDS church for the interested. Not too many Mormons care to read it for themselves though.

    What Islam teaches is a lot different than what many Muslims believe.

    I don't think any thread has been started bashing Muslims. Threads have been started about what Islam teaches and what it's founder believed. HUGE difference.

    You called sites that talked about Mormonism "anti-mormon" which is false. They are against the religion. Not the people. The sooner people such as yourself seperate people from the religion, the sooner these silly threads stop and the sooner we can have a discussion about the religion.

    I think it's very important to understand what the religion teaches. Eventually, given the right social situation, the more moderate Muslims could turn into Menj because that's what the religion teaches. Long ago he may have thought killing apostates was wrong too. But, he no longer lives in the US and lives in a country where he feels comfortable embracing that ideology as crucial to Islam.

    Yes, our country of Orgasmatan is a very small but a striving country. We sing our national anthem every morning but after that we just lay around and smoke a cigarette.

    The correct spelling would be "allowed"
    It is ironic that your upset because "People are aloud to speak there opinions" so your response is to be upset that I have an opinion?
    Freedom of speech is allowed here but there are limits in any forum, that is why Menj and Arnie are banned.

    MENJ was a Islamofacist dork,there was nothing wrong with arnie but maybe the mods found him tiresome.
    Islam isnt popular at the moment,the most hated people around are muslims so of course people are going to be anti-muslim.
    We dont live in a world where we bend over backwards for them,some people are getting pissed at this and thats why we have this on the boards.
    Are you a muslim?

    I hope Crazy Rob doesn't mind me qouting him but, this is a qoute from Crazy Rob:


    "The infraction engine is in full swing today.

    If you guys are going to take part in these discussions, it needs to be done without calling dp members terrorists, without calling prophits murderers, without anti-semetic hate speech.

    And WITH respect for the other DP members.

    Otherwise, these threads are going to be locked."

    That statement is saying that all the members of Digital Point matter. It doesn't mean that you can't express yourself. It is just saying people need to express themselves on forum without so much hate speech.
    I personally don't have any problem with many of the threads about Islam. But I do with the threads that are so general and attack an entire group, it seems inappropriate on a public forum.

    Let's not confuse criticism with hate speech.

    And let's not confuse criticism of the religion with criticism of the people.

    Both those lead to head in the sand syndrome.

    I guess Islamophobia is an uncurable disease in the West now.

    I poked around the forum and apparently he is not quite dead yet (go to his blog...his grandmother is, though but thats not the point). So to refer to him in the past tense is rater amusing.

    That is too bad about his grandmother, I saw that on his blog today. I think they are referring to him in the past tense because he is banned right now.

    There's a reason Christians don't claim "Christophobia" when people speak badly of the KKK.

    It would make them sound stupid.

    Clue by four time: there's a problem in Islam. The sooner you admit that problem and work WITH civilized society to find the cause and a cure the sooner the mainstream sees a distinction between Islamofascists and their local neighborhood Muslim.

    Finding the cause requires taking an honest look at the Koran to see if their ideals are in anyway supported or if there is clear condemnation from the Koran itself against their actions.

    Menj didn't see that condemnation. I'd like to know why. Is there no condemnation? Is there support?

    There is most definitely no support for the taking of innocent life in the Koran. Only condemnation.

    We know that. And since apostates aren't innocent are you agreeing then it's okay to murder them according to Islam.

    You're going to have to be more specific.
