Yeah, I've got no issue with Christian philosophy

2018-10-15 06:08:43 UTC  

It's the political side that I don't like

2018-10-15 06:09:10 UTC  

religion and politics should not mix, be it christian, islamic, or commie

2018-10-15 06:09:53 UTC  

Islam skips a step and writes the politics right into the religious text

2018-10-15 06:10:11 UTC  

im not an atheist, but ill admit you need to separate religion and government

2018-10-15 06:10:52 UTC  

i tried doing research on islam. the more i read the more it pisses me off

2018-10-15 06:11:09 UTC  

i bet everyone has a turn on ethics should the social order fall apart

2018-10-15 06:11:13 UTC  

It's unique in a lot of (horrifying) ways

2018-10-15 06:11:51 UTC  

The entire Koran is a political manifesto that lays out a theocracy

2018-10-15 06:12:18 UTC  

No room for interpretation of scripture. Hell, the biggest divide is over who Muhommad's rightful successor was

2018-10-15 06:12:32 UTC  

i have a super christian friend who described islam as 'satan's religion'. i laughed at him years ago. the more i read on it though, the more i find myself agreeing with him. if you wanted to control an entire population to make them do evil in the name of good, you couldnt do much better than islam

2018-10-15 06:13:38 UTC  

It's the only modern religion that I honestly believe was founded in bad faith

2018-10-15 06:14:09 UTC  

scientology... but yes, islam is worse

2018-10-15 06:14:50 UTC  

Judaism is essentially a collection of Hebrew folktales and customs

2018-10-15 06:15:00 UTC  

Mormonism.

2018-10-15 06:15:05 UTC  

True

2018-10-15 06:15:33 UTC  

Although I suppose we could argue that it's just a twisted denomination of Christianity, while Islam is its own thing

2018-10-15 06:15:55 UTC  

isnt mormonism basically christianity + aliens?

2018-10-15 06:16:32 UTC  

Yeah, and if I remember right, it was founded by a con artist.

2018-10-15 06:16:39 UTC  

Christianity took a lot of the more complicated stuff from Judaism and streamlined it into an easily marketed package

2018-10-15 06:16:46 UTC  

It was basically Judaism for normies

2018-10-15 06:16:54 UTC  

islam is not it's own thing about 70% of it is stolen whole cloth a reimagining of the torah

2018-10-15 06:17:28 UTC  

Well, most Mormons would call themselves Christian

2018-10-15 06:17:45 UTC  

hell the book even refers to a bunch of text in the bible and torah as required reading

2018-10-15 06:17:57 UTC  
2018-10-15 06:18:01 UTC  

thats scientology. that was founded by a con artist

2018-10-15 06:18:04 UTC  

I guess this is more a matter of self-identification

2018-10-15 06:19:58 UTC  

When you rip out all the "borrowed" elements from the Torah and the Bible, Islam is almost purely political

2018-10-15 06:20:00 UTC  

good night f a g s

2018-10-15 06:20:39 UTC  

where does wahabi-ism come from?

2018-10-15 06:20:46 UTC  

saudi

2018-10-15 06:21:05 UTC  

I know that the big denominatonal split in Islam is over who should have succeeded Muhommad after he died

2018-10-15 06:21:41 UTC  

thats the shia, suni spilt Wahabi and Salafist are another thing

2018-10-15 06:22:22 UTC  

How did those come about?

2018-10-15 06:22:33 UTC  

rules on going to heaven

2018-10-15 06:23:28 UTC  

all Wahabi's think suicide is fine for war jihad and are suni, but not all suni think suicude for war is ok.

2018-10-15 06:23:53 UTC  

i might have the suni thing wrong but you get the point

2018-10-15 06:24:11 UTC  

Interesting, considering there's not a whole lot of room for subjectivity in Islam

2018-10-15 06:24:14 UTC  

yall speaking w e e b

2018-10-15 06:24:22 UTC  

but what do you define as good?

2018-10-15 06:24:29 UTC  

Meanwhile, Christianity forks itself over the most autistic shit
