it's two different topics

the west is greatly involved in wars in the Middle Eastern

at the same time Muslims have gotten weaker.

it's the reality. China took land from the Muslims too. No one can come and save them atm (they think)

I want to repost

"I think that's only a theory and not realestic.

the real life is different. Hate speech matters greatly in a society and it can cause deadly riots.

hate speech against muslims by the monke fueled the genocide of Muslims in Myanmar.

Muslims get killed over the accusation of eating beef in India.

Reality can different than our theories"

it's about someone elses previous text

slender coral
#

Isn't essentially disrespecting a group deemed hate speech?
No it is not. Hate speech are forms of speech that encourage violence against a group like using slurs describing them, referring to them as "not humans", and stuff like that. Not respecting a group is very different than hate, I don't respect the Muslim community but I wouldn't ever commit a crime against a Muslim person.

How valuable to you the one being disrespected is the point.
If you truly love your mother, you wouldn't accept her being insulted. Similarly, to us Muslims, we genuinely despise those who ridicule, discredit, or disrespect either Islam, Muslims, Allah, the prophet (PBUH), the prophet's companions, the scholars etc... Due to the genuine admiration we hold to them.

It's really frustrating that I have to explain why wickedness is wrong.

I like that you brought that up. Of course no one would tolerate getting their mother insulted, but think about this for a second. Is your relationship with god exclusive to you just like how your relationship with your mother is? Islam is an ideology that's affecting the lives of bilions of people around the world, those who believe and those who do not believe. What you have here, if we go along the mother analogy, is a mother working in politics where suspiciouns of corruption and unfairness that affect people's lives often arise. Here, it's very natural to see many people disrespect this woman in society, should we punish everyone who would disrespect a politician?
You may claim that Islam is innocent from all accusations against it, but even if we assume you are right that wouldn't change that religion just like politics is naturally a highly controversial and polarizing topic, and insisting to punish anyone who would ridicule your beliefs would be denying this reality.

# lament forge in short terms , everything bothers you

In short terms, disrespect is not okay. Don't cause the problem and play the victim.

With that being said, I no longer get offended by those comments. I kind of learned how to completely disregard worthless individuals.
I'd still respond harshly to those who're being disrespectful if I feel like it. It's my right whether anyone likes it or not, honestly.

Anyway,

I was talking about looking for questions about Isiam on the web.

A discussion can go to the wrong way.

from a very nice discussion we are actually starting to blame Muslims by putting forth some events and trying to question how that is right.

about the questions that's coming about Islam, now, you can search them online and easily find answers about them. Instead of debating general Muslims over the questions and disagreeing with each other

if your question is about the laws the isiamic court has for blasphemy then you can look them up.

You can get a better answer from the scholars and talk to them.

i previously told you to not invite general Muslims in a normal discussion and asking questions that scholars have already answered.

If you are really open to learning then ask the scholars who can answer you better.

but I see you are giving him a challenge like (answer me if you can)

even if he can't answer, a scholar can.

There are several problems with your passage.

First, you're conflating criticism with insult. While you can definitely criticize Islam if you observe an error about it, you should expect a counter-criticism that fits the level of harshness depending on how you approach criticizing it.

Second, religion and politics aren't quite analogous. Politics inherently invites controversy because it involves competing interests, while religion is deeply personal and sacred to its followers.
While religion also may involve interests, it doesn't necessarily affect other people's interests in a negative sense.

Third, your argument seems to be "insult and ridicule Islam and Muslims. Play the victim when Muslims harshly respond". It's just a matter of responding in kind.
If someone would to insult a person you admire, it's very understandable that your response wouldn't be easy.

Finally, with all due respect, but your standard isn't binding to us Muslims.
We aren't very tolerant to disrespect, and we generally are not demanding anything beyond our rights. So, I'd suggest people don't disrespect Islam or Muslims if they don't like our response to that, honestly.

This is wrong on so many levels. No religions do heavily affect people. They are the reason why some secular countries made essential vaccinations a choice as some religious groups oppose them, that's an example. For Islam things are more obvious. In the name of Islam we had many terrorist groups, many authoritarian states, and many crimes against people just like the one we talked about earlier, the killing of the man who burnt the Quran. Again, you can argue that they don't represent Islam all you want but that wouldn't change that religious beliefs motivate many people and entities to do things against the interests and beliefs of many other people.
While religion is distinct from politics, it's strongly tied to it and we see this all the time in discussions about democracy, lgbt rights, women's rights, child rights, etc...

Third, your argument seems to be "insult and ridicule Islam and Muslims. Play the victim when Muslims harshly respond". It's just a matter of responding in kind.

It's really not normal to kill someone for insulting you, I wouldn't do that. And it is worse if you consider that an insult directed at your beliefs deserves punishment by death, that's just snowflake behavior and attitude.

Finally, with all due respect, but your standard isn't binding to us Muslims.
They are. You live in a world where beliefs constantly clash with one another, if you can't take that just immigrate from earth to another planet or something and live their by yourselves.

In the name of Islam we had many terrorist groups, many authoritarian states, and many crimes against people
Fun fact: did you know the most heinous and atrocious massacres in history are mostly perpetrated by atheists or non-affiliated individuals.
I could say atheism promotes violence, savagery, and barbarity based on that fact, does that mean it is the case? We had people justifying their wrongdoings via all types of ideologies and positions, that doesn't mean they are truly reflective or representative of them.

It's not necessarily tied to it unless a country is essentially Islamic. If I live in a country that promotes LGBTQ, how am I going to politically affect those communities as a Muslim? That doesn't make sense.

It's really not normal to kill someone for insulting you, I wouldn't do that. And it is worse if you consider that an insult directed at your beliefs deserves punishment by death, that's just snowflake behavior and attitude.
Although my reaction to his death wouldn't be negative (sadness or grief), I've never promoted or encouraged the killing of someone burning the Qur'an. The punishment is completely up to the Islamic court if he is held accountable for such a heinous crime.
I just pointed out the flaws in your judgement and how you're the one who's justifying his action of disrespecting and provoking Muslims via burning the Qur'an. Additionally, I've already mentioned how he endorsed the genocide and massacres committed against a group of Muslim majority, so, even if I'm a non-Muslim, I'd probably be glad that has been punished.

That wasn't the reason he was killed, and it has never been the reason why people like him got assassinated or got assassination attempts.

"For Islam things are more obvious. In the name of Islam we had many terrorist groups".
No. Your statements aren't discussing freedom of speech.

Even in secular countries religion is tied to politics. Discussions around politics in the US for example often involve Christianity. And yes as a Muslim even in a secular country you could affect people with your views
The US is of a Christian background. Additionally, a secular state is not secular if it's ruling by a specific religion.
You've cited an article stating the LGBTQ pride flag has been banned by a whole city (the majority). If the majority doesn't like the LGBTQ agenda being imposed on them and their children, then violating that would be a position or ideology negatively affecting other people!! Does that mean those people are entitled of insulting individuals who affiliate to the LGBTQ?

Why do you consider it heinous? That's what the discussion has been about.
Simple. Because it's a disrespect to Islam, Muslims, and Allah.

That wasn't the reason he was killed, and it has never been the reason why people like him got assassinated or got assassination attempts.
Irrelevant.

Perfectly fine? Well if you consider having a rep for being a group of terrorists and tyrants as perfectly fine
So, wearing Hijab, for example, since it's not abiding by your standard, is an act of terrorism and tyranny!?! Lol. That is an extreme view in and of itself.

Honestly, that's double standard. You don't like Muslims negatively affecting others' lives, although it rarely ever happens if the individual is not at fault, but you're perfectly fine with negatively affecting Muslims. Amazing.

My statements are about freedom of speech, criticizing ideologies to be specific. As a result of how many terrorist and authoritarian groups adopt Islam, we have a lot of controversies surrounding it. That's natural and it's natural for people to see it as harmful and criticize/mock it accordingly.
You haven't read the article that I included, the banning of pride flag came from the city council which entirely consists of Muslim members. The display of pride flag is not imposing an agenda on anyone, it's a form of free speech where people express their ideals not impose them, it's the Muslim city council that imposed its ideals by prohibiting people from displaying the flag. And well, Muslims are already entitled to insult the movement in the west and they do it all the time, they do more actually many of them advocate for the persecution of lgbt people.
You didn't answer my question, why do you consider disrespecting Islam, Muslims, and Allah as a heinous crime?
And why do you consider the reason Salwan was killed irrelevant? It's the main point of our discussion that killing people for merely expressing their opinions about faith is wrong and that's why Salwan got killed, because he burnt the Quran not because his position on the Palestine-Israel issue.
Having the bad reputation isn't the result of you guys wearing hijabs, it's the result of the dangerous terrorist rhetoric you have been trying to advocate for since yesterday, that killing someone or punishing them legally with death is fine if they insult your beliefs.

Where did I say anything that makes me perfectly fine with negatively affecting Muslims? I'm not defending killing them nor punishing them for their views, you are the one here who is defending the killing of a non Muslim and advocating for punishing us if we say something that hurts your fragil feelings. You are being extremely dishonest here.

I think we are focusing on the wrong thing. People in power are not peaceful. Religion does nothing to make such people peaceful. Instead, they use religion as a means to justify their violent goals. Religion may be peaceful, but it does nothing to pacify the violence within many people. Often, religion can fan the flames of violence, but violence is a feature of human nature, not of religion itself

Islam includes verses that discuss self-defense, warfare, and justice, particularly in historical contexts when Muslim communities were under threat. These verses are sometimes misinterpreted or taken out of context to justify violence, but Islamic teachings generally emphasize restraint, forgiveness, and the pursuit of peace whenever possible.

Many scholars highlight that Islam permits warfare only in self-defense and prohibits harming civilians, destroying nature, or excessive aggression. The vast majority of Muslims worldwide follow these peaceful principles and reject violence (chat gpt)

shy summit
#

Sadly religious beliefs are of the few ideological dogmas whos followers (for whatever reasons) are more vulnerable to violent radicalization.

#

Perhaps its the defined in and out groups

#

Perhaps its how nicely it gels with things like nationalism and more outright discriminatory dogma like homophobia or racism (only sometimes)

mystic bay

I think that any kind of dogmatic belief-system is likely to attract whatever violent people there are in a society (I'm not using 'dogmatic' in a pejorative sense)

tender vessel
# slender coral My statements are about freedom of speech, criticizing ideologies to be specific...

We're moving in circles at this point. So, that is probably gonna be my final response.

  1. We are not gonna tolerate ridiculing or mocking us or Islam, as we should. Your standard as I've mentioned repeatedly is not universally binding, especially to Muslims as we have our own standard.
  2. Correlation doesn't imply causation. Just because certain groups attribute themselves to a particular religion, position, ideology etc... doesn't mean their belief is the source of their wrongdoings. H*tler wholeheartedly believed in evolution and used to justify his actions, but that doesn't mean any evolutionist is tyrannical murderer and ruthless maniac.
    Claiming that an ideology is the root of evil requires demonstrating where that ideology explicitly endorses such wrongdoing. Otherwise, responsibility for wrongdoings should rest solely on their perpetrators individually.
    To reinforce this point, consider Humanism, since it's the ideology you affiliate to. Humanism prioritizes the well-being and progress of humanity. Affiliates to it could justify eliminating individuals or groups that are deemed obstacles to that progress - whether due to their beliefs, actions, or their mere existence - by stating it's a necessary step for more enlightened, harmonious society, and since it rejects divine moral authority and accepts that morality is shaped by human reasoning and societal consensus, this wrongdoing is way more attainable than it is if they had some kind of objective source like religious people do.
  3. I have explicitly answered your question on why burning the Qur'an to me is a heinous crime. I'm not obligated to provide an answer that must satisfy your own ideology.
  4. I did not refer to Salwan's murder as irrelevant, it's the motive for his murder that is irrelevant to the statement you've being responding to. You can simply be glad Stalin died, for example, regardless of why and how he died.
tender vessel
# slender coral My statements are about freedom of speech, criticizing ideologies to be specific...
  1. I have never in my life justified killing non-Muslims just because they are non-Muslims. I have no idea where you're getting that from. In fact, I've explicitly stated killing him because he burned the Qur'an is not the right course of action, even if I consider his action a heinous crime (#🧠|serious-chat message).

My impression is that, you're desperately trying to justify mocking, ridiculing, and insulting Islam and Muslims. It's not justifiable. I'd suggest you stop it here.

It is, indeed, violent. However, according to certain viewpoints, it is not wrong.
In fact, even in secular states/countries, certain actions, although not violent, could be sentenced with violent punishments, such as treason which is punishable by death in many secular and non-secular countries (US, China, Russia, North Korea etc...).
So, punishments are not solely dependent on the action, but also on the effect and influence of that action. That's why I've said it depends on the nature of the offense.

I'm not arguing that Islam promotes terrorism with you, I've said this many times before. My point is: it's natural for it to be controversial and therefor natural for it to be criticized/mocked. You want to believe and spread the idea that evolution (which is a fact proven by science) an "ideology" that promotes Nazism? Do that. It's so fucking dumb but you are certainly free to do that, you have the right to freedom of speech as a human.
Humanism doesn't accept morality on the basis of societal consensus, educate yourself about the things you talk about.
And now you are comparing Salwan with Stalin? Just wow.
I'm not desperate at all, you are the one desperate here and that's evident by how you keep avoiding addressing free speech. Instead you keep dodging that by turning it into an argument of "Is Islam a terrorist religion?". And you know what? Yes it is. But that's not what we have been trying to talk about since the beginning of this, we are talking about free speech and you haven't presented any good reasons to why beliefs should have special protections.

Come under my wing. I'm looking for brave and smart people. A call for international freedom. A new world order will be established. A great time for self-determination and ambition for the Muslim lands. Collective conscious is the will of God. We shall not tolerate the genocide of innocent Palestinians. We have the truth on our side. We will colonize mars and thrive to be multiplanetary species.

#

During the time of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), he opposed the capitalists of his era. In our time, despite the oppressive systems of bankers such as the Federal Reserve, the World Bank, the IMF, and Zionist influences, capitalism has undeniably brought technological prosperity to developing countries. However, it has simultaneously turned the Arab nations into a living nightmare. While capitalism fosters prosperity, it often disregards limits. The genocide in Palestine is one of the most documented atrocities in history, yet it remains astonishingly denied by many.

The entire Western hegemony operates as a unified, organic entity. The West has embraced a Judeo-Christian identity, and under the guise of "Customary International Law," even the UN serves their agenda.

Christians, now morally bankrupt, have allowed themselves to be deceived. After World War II, they exterminated their perceived enemies, the "international elements," only to leave them entrenched in Muslim lands.

If a war erupts in the near future, it will likely be an ideological one, where the ‘cunning of reasoning’ will play a decisive role.

As America's allies continue to confront China and Russia economically, culturally, and militarily in an effort to maintain a balance of power, the Muslim world is striving to reclaim its lost progress.

Israel is a flagpost of humanity’s standpoint. A nation-state that can kill innocent babies surely poses a nuclear threat—a global threat. With the upcoming advancements in AI and modern warfare technologies, humanity will undoubtedly face an existential crisis. The Christopher Columbuses of our time, like Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos, have set their sights on voyages to Mars. Muslims, too, possess the same capacity for adventure and exploration.

If the pulse of common subjects is allowed the right to self-determination and great ambition, a new era of international freedom is on the horizon. The truth is patiently, yet forcefully, awaiting its moment.

I, by default, subscribe to the class struggle of Marxist ideology and abhor the money-God.

I have carefully studied the ‘words’ of various philosophers. They are bewitched by the ‘language game,’ as Ludwig Wittgenstein has pointed out. Language follows a social rule, which is why I choose one deity—Allah—the summum bonum--the highest good, the explanation for the creation of the universe. Allah is not a personal god but the God of 1.9 billion people.

Very simple. Let me answer with various verse of the quran. The verse you were referring to is does not mean that we fight anyone whos non believer. Rather the context of that verse was to be understood as defensive struggle. Those verse came down when the polytheist in mecca try to persecute muslim. Basically torture and assassinate them. So that verse the came down for Muslims to start to fight.

I'm doubtful that it makes sense to speak of an unqualified 'right to free speech'. I think that what matters more is where you are when the speech is uttered. There's the world of difference, it seems to me, between my saying whatever I want to say when I am sitting in my living room and my saying whatever I want to say while sitting in your living room.

On the one hand, if I am engaging in speech acts that are offensive, demeaning or distasteful while on my property, there is no way that someone can physically stop me without being a trespasser.

On the other hand, if I am engaging in speech acts which you don't care to listen to (whatever they might be) while I am on your property, then I don't see any reason why you should be obliged to suffer my presence there longer than you wish to.

When all is said and done, the so-called right to free speech, just like many alleged rights, just collapse into property rights.

The jizya is a tax you pay once a year. And it's not very expensive.

Like, take the situation with Muslims for example

How Muslim majority countries kill and imprison those who criticize Islam

I wouldn't like to be forced to pay a tax for not believing in the religion of the state. It's amount isn't specified in the Quran nor in Hadith, and it's a part of a set of discriminatory laws against non Muslims in a Muslim country, they are called laws of Ahlul-Dhimma أحكام أهل الذمة, read about them. I think ibn al-qayyim has a book with that title, read some of it and see how diginified non-Muslims are under Sharia.

"The value of holding what you love, respect, or believe in to the highest position is immense. If you don't do this, it can lead to a lack of self-respect. Self-respect is crucial for earning respect from others. Only someone who truly believes in something can fully understand this principle. It means you must place your values and beliefs at the forefront of your life to maintain integrity and self-worth."

Good ideas don't require force hehedoggo

#

That is probably the most significant idea the West received from the Enlightenment

#

We tell our children "Don't hit, use your words"

#

And then certain grown-ups forget that

#

And then they go into government or the police or military

Use verbal abuse instead

Belts and whips aside, let's say that we punish everyone who disrespects your religious beliefs, do you guys realize that many sets of religious beliefs are insulting to each other? Shia Muslims for example see Mohamed's companions as evil, while Sunni Muslims think of them as central figures for the religion, some Christians consider the Islamic belief that god didn't let Jesus get crucified a form of deception which makes them find the story insulting to god, Jews believe that Mary committed adultery, etc... If we aren't alllowed to say stuff that are offensive to anyone, no one would be able to express their views.

Jews actually should just become atheists now like seriously in their books the messiah must come before the destruction of the second temple and must be punished killed and then rose again they don't believe in Jesus this making Jewish books false prophecy wow

  1. Mature adults should not engage in idle mockery or insults intended to hurt or offend

  2. Mature adults should learn to cope with mockery and insults without resorting to force, or petitioning the state to resort to force

I think that everyone agrees to 1. But for some reason 2. is a bit of a sticking point. This really does just come down to being a grown-up.

The thing is, as I said so many times before, even constructive discussion around religion isn't allowed in Muslim majority countries.
This is not actually true ,ur being biased here , I don't doubt ur mixing with constructive discussion and a direct offense toward specific Group.
And anyway, ridiculing and mocking religion isn't something that deserves a strong reaction for the so many reasosn I've been talking about for days now in this chat.
Finally acknowledged offending ppl is not freedom. good for u

Hey @mortal depot, why do you believe in Christianity if you don't mind asking? Pick a reason and discuss it.

# slender coral Hey <@1317095993304551434>, why do you believe in Christianity if you don't mind...

I believe there is good evidence for the ressurection because there is no naturalistic objection that fully succeeds in arguing against the ressurection
Such as the mystic theory hallucinating theory
Conspiracy theory these all have been disproved by scholar Gary habermas and Michael Jones has also discussed the evidence also Mike licona gives good arguements for it too I myself didn't have good objections to the ressurection when I wasn't christian

N. T. Wright emphasises the historical certainty of the empty tomb as well as the experiences people had of Jesus post mortem

#

and posits the reality of Jesus's bodily resurrection as the best historical explanation of these facts

in short, people from the western hemisphere of media greatly misunderstands Isiam because they don't report about them honestly

#

i said western hemisphere because that's how it looks like. Our media follow the western rules and we use the platform that are run by the western TOS at the same time because of our language barrier and because we mostly take the news in English we are greatly greatly sunk into the western hemisphere of media

12 people who actually lived side by side with jesus and actually were afraid their 3 years were gonna go to waste because if jesus hadnt risen he wouldve been exposed as a false prophet but guess what peter and the gang went back to preaching after three days

all the events in the bible were chosen by the governing bodies of the church sometime in the 4th century, notall the events in the bible were chosen by the governing bodies of the church sometime in the 4th century, I don't know the exact year, but I think between 310-330. At that council the ones that did not contradict each other were chosen from hundreds of biblical works. The main point that I see is that it is not so much the biblical truth that matters, but the teachings, as parables, that are handed down to us. If we try to dismiss religion as truth we will only be disappointed. If we embrace religion as an idea and as a way of life, then we can keep both our belief in the secular and our belief in science without contradiction.
