    If you raise your kids to believe in Allah you are setting up your grandchildren to live like this. Oppose religion, wherever you see it.

        All organized religion is ripe for abuse by its uncontrollable masters. It’s almost like communism in that!

          Not the commenter, but I assume they talk about the nature of Abrahamic religions.

          Technically, Judaism, Christianity and Islam are just three updates of the same religion. First came Torah, then it got transformed into the Old Testament and completed with the New one to get the Bible, and then Bible itself got completed to get Quran.

          With that came one abrahamic God - referred to as Yahweh in Judaism, Trinity in Christianity (note: Islam goes back and denies Trinity and godly nature of Jesus, calling him a prophet, not element of God, and rolling back on Holy Spirit, too, reinstating Father God as the only source of godly power), and Allah in Islam.

          Thereby cancelling Allah means also cancelling Trinity and Yahweh, as they’re actually one and the same.

          I don’t get it. Thor is not the same as Allah/God, even though he is a Norse god.

      Well that’s pretty reductionist, and bigoted. If you’re going to judge Muslims by their extremists then you can’t leave out the Christians and Jews. Hell Jewish extremists in Israel are committing genocide as we speak.

          Then don’t specifically mention Allah. It’s one of the older propaganda methods. We don’t like the general group but fuck those guys specifically.

          Funny how all the commenter needs to do to clear things up is edit their post. Instead you guys are all trying to make excuses.

            How dare they use Allah as an example of a god, in a submission about the harmful effects of Islam!

              Sure, breed more islamophobia. Most Muslims don’t want this. It’s like using the FLDS as an example of all Christians.

                Which is why “oppose religion” means all of them. No exceptions

        I cheerfully include any and all branches of Abrahamic religions in my unbridled hatred of these psychopaths. Even more than that I hate those who continue to defend them.

        The evidence of religion ruling people’s lives is right in front of you and you act like we are drawing conclusions from nothing.

            read a book

            Bible, Koran, Torah, Book of Mormon, The Vedas… you know there’s actually a lot of objectionable shit in all of these.

            I wonder if you meant some other books that support your ideals, jokes on me for reading the source materials instead I suppose.

          Religions can be harmful for certain dumb people who believe them. It’s not a given, but with the interconnectivity of today these dumb people can organize and create echo chambers, and be much more harmful to both themselves and others. A stark, anti-religion stance seems harsh, but it’s likely the most effective way to avoid these pitfalls.

        casually thinks back ONLY these last five years

        remembers all the excuses and acts committed whilst hiding behind religion

        suddenly falls into a wormhole and lands in 1095

        I dunno, seems fishy.
