Is an "idea" above debate?

[BULLDOG]

I don't think any of the major religions are evil...I think there are evil people who USE those religions.

If you go back to the original writings of any religion, you will find evil instructions and actions. They were accepted behavior for that time. Thankfully, most religions have discarded most of those early teachings. They are still there to be found, but only the extremes of each religion pay them any heed.

Can you summarize this idea that is or is not above debate?

What I understood was he reduced his understanding of Islam to basically just an idea, and he says there is no way to be abusive to an idea. He acknowledges that you can be abusive to the people that practice the religion, but not the religion it's self. All just a bunch of double talk and bullshit mostly.

90%+ of the global Muslim population is anti-Semitic, homophobic, misogynistic, and theocratic with large percentages supporting honor killings and terrorist organizations; such as, AQ and Hamas. Not all Muslims are bad people but the overwhelming majority of them are, I'm sure there were some good Nazis too.

On Anti-Semitism the overwhelming majority of Muslims have a negative view of Jews:

Antisemitism | Pew Research Center


A survey of attitudes has found that the populations of nearly all predominantly Muslim countries hold a negative attitude toward Jews. The Pew Research Center’s survey, which was carried out in mid-2009 in 25 countries, found that 98 percent of Lebanese, 97 percent of Jordanians and Palestinians and 95 percent of Egyptians hold an unfavorable view of Jews. However, only 35 percent of Israeli Arabs said they disliked Jews. In Turkey, the figure jumped from 32 percent in 2004 to 73 percent in 2009.

Negative views of Jews were also widespread in the predominantly Muslim countries of Asia. In Pakistan, 78 percent expressed unfavorable opinions, and in Indonesia – the largest Muslim country in the world – 74 percent. Among Nigerians, overall views were split, but opinions divided sharply along religious lines. Sixty percent of Muslims in Nigeria had an unfavorable view of Jews, compared with only 28 percent of Christians.

On Anti-Semitism:


The only representative comparative survey of different European countries that distinguishes between Muslims and non-Muslims was conducted by the Pew Global Attitudes Project in April 2006.5 Unfortunately, only a single ques- tion was used to measure antisemitic attitudes.6 The study showed that Muslims in France, Germany, and Spain were twice as likely as non-Muslims to harbor negative views of Jews. The factor was almost seven for Great Britain. The dif- ference is even greater concerning “very unfavorable” views of Jews. In 2006, Muslims were three to ten times more likely to harbor “very unfavorable” views of Jews than did non-Muslims in France, Germany, and Great Britain. The factor was slightly lower in Spain, where negative views of Jews were by far the highest among both Muslims (60 percent) and the general population (39 percent). Other surveys confirm particularly high levels of antisemitic attitudes in Spain in the general population.7

On homophobia:

Muslims in Britain have zero tolerance towards homosexual acts compared to their counterparts in France and Germany, according to a survey published today. The most dramatic contrast was found in attitudes towards homosexuality. None of the 500 British Muslims interviewed believed that homosexual acts were morally acceptable. By comparison, 35% of French Muslims found homosexual acts to be acceptable. A question on pornography also elicited different reactions, with French and German Muslims more likely than British Muslims to believe that watching or reading pornography was morally acceptable.


Muslims in Britain have zero tolerance of homosexuality, says poll | UK news | The Guardian

On theocracy:

According to the study (German and English), which was funded by the German government, two thirds (65%) of the Muslims interviewed say Islamic Sharia law is more important to them than the laws of the country in which they live.

Three quarters (75%) of the respondents hold the opinion that there is only one legitimate interpretation of the Koran, which should apply to all Muslims, and nearly 60% of Muslims believe their community should return to "Islamic roots."

The survey shows that 44% of the Moroccans and Turks interviewed agree with all three of the above statements, which makes them "consistent fundamentalists," and fundamentalist attitudes are just as widespread among younger Muslims as they are among older Muslims.

According to the study, Islamic fundamentalism is most pronounced in Austria, where 73% of Muslims interviewed say Sharia law is more important than the secular laws of the state; 79% say there is only one correct interpretation of the Koran that should apply to all, and 65% believe Muslims should return to their Islamic roots. In Austria, 55% of the Muslims surveyed say they agree with all three of the above statements.

Antisemitism | Pew Research Center


A survey of attitudes has found that the populations of nearly all predominantly Muslim countries hold a negative attitude toward Jews. The Pew Research Center’s survey, which was carried out in mid-2009 in 25 countries, found that 98 percent of Lebanese, 97 percent of Jordanians and Palestinians and 95 percent of Egyptians hold an unfavorable view of Jews. However, only 35 percent of Israeli Arabs said they disliked Jews. In Turkey, the figure jumped from 32 percent in 2004 to 73 percent in 2009.

Negative views of Jews were also widespread in the predominantly Muslim countries of Asia. In Pakistan, 78 percent expressed unfavorable opinions, and in Indonesia – the largest Muslim country in the world – 74 percent. Among Nigerians, overall views were split, but opinions divided sharply along religious lines. Sixty percent of Muslims in Nigeria had an unfavorable view of Jews, compared with only 28 percent of Christians.

On Anti-Semitism:


The only representative comparative survey of different European countries that distinguishes between Muslims and non-Muslims was conducted by the Pew Global Attitudes Project in April 2006.5 Unfortunately, only a single ques- tion was used to measure antisemitic attitudes.6 The study showed that Muslims in France, Germany, and Spain were twice as likely as non-Muslims to harbor negative views of Jews. The factor was almost seven for Great Britain. The dif- ference is even greater concerning “very unfavorable” views of Jews. In 2006, Muslims were three to ten times more likely to harbor “very unfavorable” views of Jews than did non-Muslims in France, Germany, and Great Britain. The factor was slightly lower in Spain, where negative views of Jews were by far the highest among both Muslims (60 percent) and the general population (39 percent). Other surveys confirm particularly high levels of antisemitic attitudes in Spain in the general population.7

On homophobia:

Muslims in Britain have zero tolerance towards homosexual acts compared to their counterparts in France and Germany, according to a survey published today. The most dramatic contrast was found in attitudes towards homosexuality. None of the 500 British Muslims interviewed believed that homosexual acts were morally acceptable. By comparison, 35% of French Muslims found homosexual acts to be acceptable. A question on pornography also elicited different reactions, with French and German Muslims more likely than British Muslims to believe that watching or reading pornography was morally acceptable.

On theocracy:

According to the study (German and English), which was funded by the German government, two thirds (65%) of the Muslims interviewed say Islamic Sharia law is more important to them than the laws of the country in which they live.

Three quarters (75%) of the respondents hold the opinion that there is only one legitimate interpretation of the Koran, which should apply to all Muslims, and nearly 60% of Muslims believe their community should return to "Islamic roots."

The survey shows that 44% of the Moroccans and Turks interviewed agree with all three of the above statements, which makes them "consistent fundamentalists," and fundamentalist attitudes are just as widespread among younger Muslims as they are among older Muslims.

According to the study, Islamic fundamentalism is most pronounced in Austria, where 73% of Muslims interviewed say Sharia law is more important than the secular laws of the state; 79% say there is only one correct interpretation of the Koran that should apply to all, and 65% believe Muslims should return to their Islamic roots. In Austria, 55% of the Muslims surveyed say they agree with all three of the above statements.

That question was if they had a favorable, very favorable, unfavorable, very unfavorable, you dumb mother ******, and 90%+ have unfavorable and very unfavorable views of Jews. And I posted way more polling data than that pal.

This guy hits the nail on the head when it comes to the left & Islam

I don't want to watch a video.

Can you summarize this idea that is or is not above debate?

Not going to even attempt. Watch the vid or don't.

I don't like vids. I like written material. Are you saying you can't summarize in your own words? (something besides FU )

They are not my words. Plagiarizing is not my cup of tea. As to your "likes" that's just a ridiculous position. It's a damn YouTube video not a vile with a contagious disease.

I'm a luddite. I like the written word. ptthhwww.

The video accuses liberals of loving Islam because we all want to subjugate ourselves to evil authoritarians who rape women and kill gay people.

That's all. Nothing to it.

This guy hits the nail on the head when it comes to the left & Islam

One of the WEIRDEST conundrums of the modern age is WHY the left SUPPORTS a cult that KILLS HOMOS, HONOR KILLS DAUGHTERS, SUBJUGATES WOMEN LIKE DOGS, MARRIES LITTLE GIRLS, WORSHIPS A PROPHET THAT WAS A PEDOPHILE, BELIEVES ANYONE THAT ISN'T A MUSLIM SHOULD BE KILLED... EVERYTHING that the left SUPPOSEDLY is DIAMETRICALLY AGAINST! WHY?

It's not that complicated. The hardcore Left operates under a simplistic Oppressed/Oppressor template that it instantly applies to any situation or relationship. Once it has identified the "oppressed" group, it will defend that group, it will spin for it, lie for it, attack for it, distort for it, deny for it, permanently. And it will attack the "oppressor" with the same passion. It's more than willing to exacerbate any divide. Even when its actions ultimately align it with a destructive group, no matter how horrific that group is.

The hardcore Left is animated by its maternal side, and blindly wants to protect, no matter what, no matter what the consequences.

Examples of the "Oppressed/Oppressor" template
Islam / Christianity
The World / America
Women / Men
Blacks / Whites
Poor / Rich
Employee / Employer
Earth / America
Gays / Straights
Unsuccessful / Successful
Government / Business

Once you recognize this template, their behaviors make more "sense".

Dawkins is great, he's a longtime friend of two of my favorite thinkers, Sam Harris & Christopher Hitchens (RIP Hitch), proud liberals who haven't been afraid to call out the Regressive Left for what it is.
