Allah is often referred to as the moon god. Man has been to the moon and nobody is there. What do you have to say about this?

“Wishful thinking about the peaceful tolerance of Islam cannot interpret away this reality: hands are still cut off, women still stoned and enslaved, just as the Prophet Muhammad decided centuries ago.” - Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Infidel “Multiculturalism should not mean that we tolerate another culture’s intolerance. If we do in fact support diversity, women’s rights, and gay rights, then we cannot in good conscience give Islam a free pass on the grounds of multicultural sensitivity.” - Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Heretic: Why Islam Needs a Reformation Now She's a good lady, that Ayaan. Read a couple of her books and she makes a lot of sense - has a unique perspective as a woman who has lived in Somalia and Saudi Arabia. She underwent female genital mutilation, went to Islamic schools, had an arranged marriage, emigrated to the West later renounced Islam and wrote the script to the controversial film "Submission" with Theo van Gogh (who was murdered by an Islamist fundamentalist). Check her out guys!

I read a few passages from the Quran and it was really loving awful. It's basically "all you non-believers are dumb and will perish"

Also, the proud nation of Saudi Arabia, home to the holiest cities of Islam, is going to righteously execute a teenager by crucifixion, apparently: http://www.sanfranciscosentinel.com/?p=174706

Its more like a refinement of the monotheistic ideal. Judaism is strictly monotheistic but inherently tribal, specific to a "chosen people." Christianity expands the franchise to all of humankind, but dilutes the monotheism with the concept of the Trinity and the dual nature of Jesus as Son of God. Islam is a more austere form monotheism which is not limited to a specific group of people.

Why is Monotheism so special? Other than crushing any remnants of competing religions?

CaptainSarcastic posted:So you agree with me. We may have different premises. khwarezm posted:Why is Monotheism so special? Its not special per se, but we can simply chart the evolution of monotheism from through Judaism, Zoroastrianism, Christianity, and Islam. To me the primary characteristic of Islam is its simplicity and austerity. But not everyone wants that.

It's just as oppressive if not more so than Christianity and Judaism so we should probably get rid of it

In terms of Worst Religion it seems pretty clear that the one and two spots go to Islam and Christianity, but Hinduism makes a strong third-place showing.

None if the big religions are kind to women or people who don't conform. Should probably reach out to the poor and marginalized more because nothing kills religion better than economic stability

when do the sufis and the gnostic xtians get together cut loose and learn about the true genesis of mankind in the days when the entire earth was a plant and the sun was one with the earth, and then the many gods attained godhood through various fel and base means, and the race of men were born into suffering and chaos, but in the fullness of time the gods will ossify and die out and the sons of men shall once again return to proper duality with the sun in heaven/nirvana/shangri'la

I've got an actual question: what's the thinking behind Islam forbidding the depiction of humans or animals in art? Is like a vanity thing or what?
