The Sense That We (USA) Has To Missionize the World

[tekla]

You know, . .  . I could (and I will) blasphemy Allah from here to tomorrow on this board, and you know what?  Allah ain't going to do crap. Why?  Well children, because Allah had like zero power in the real word, because Allah is not a real deal.  Allah is one more imaginary being who had little to no power over real people.

Want me to test that. Sure.



OK.  So. 

Where is the thunder?  The lighting?  You'd think that god would smite me plenty for that remark.  But, guess what?  I'm still typing.

So much for your puny gods.

We will see...

And then the US complains that they are disliked by Muslims...

Well now, two moody people found each other  In the US, freedom of religion is a right written into the constitution. There are many people from all over the world who practice a variety of religions. There are Muslim Mosques a block away from Christian Churches and most everyone gets along quite well. If you want to see the face of an American, look all across the globe. Because they come from everywhere all over the world and bring their wonderfully diverse cultures with them. Judging a highly diverse country by the decisions of a small group who happen to be in power at the time, does not make allot of sense. Look in the mirror before you point a finger.

I suppose if the USA government feels it is their duty to "civilize" the world to their ideal (note I said the Goverments ideal) then the rest of the world gets a vote in the Presidential elections

Now that would be a really interesting series of primary's etc

BTW I really like the American people. I married to one and love her family. Have several friends and on visits the people have been so friendly.
They are also really nice served with a chilli sauce and chips

People fighting, dying, killing over whose imaginary friend in the sky has which name has gone on way too long, and its time that it's stopped.

I'm hard pressed to find anything good that has come out of these religion deals, harder still to find people who are willing to practice what they preach, as opposed to imposing it on others.

I have locked this topic.

the topic went from a discussion about a nation imposing it's will on the world to a discussion about two posters imposing their wills on one another.

A statement made by one poster and then quoted by the other was certainly of the sort that many believers of both Islam and Christianity might find blasphemous to the extreme. A staement by the other poster was a personal attack on the first poster that had no foundation in fact.

Since this seems to be such a volatile topic I have locked it and it will remain locked.
