He better watch his mouth...

Quote :
" Pakistan's parliament unanimously adopted a resolution condemning the pope for making what it called "derogatory" comments about Islam, and seeking an apology from him

Pakistan's Foreign Ministry also called the pope's remarks "regrettable."

"Anyone who describes Islam as a religion as intolerant encourages violence," Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Tasnim Aslam said."


Islam is a PEACEFUL religion, you COCK SUCKING MOTHERFUCKERS, now die infidels, dirka dirka dirka

I don't think a terrorist group would blow up the Vatican. Do you realize the amount of nuclear bombs that would enter the middle east if that happened.

Now, one crazy former muslim did shoot up the last pope, which is why they roll in a glass popemobile now, but if they actually blew that shit up, we wouldn't have to worry about muslim violence anymore, because it may be a worldwide genocide.

Oh, and I'm Catholic so I'm sure I'm biased on this, but did anyone have any major problems with his speech? I know the one line he quoted from the Emperor about Islam bringing nothing new except evil or some shit was insensitive and shouldn't have been said, but I'm not sure this deserves the outcry it's getting.

But then again, I wouldn't kill anyone over a cartoon either.

oh man, see, the catholic religion includes a lot more people than are just living in the US - there are just as many poverty stricken catholics out there in the outer reaches of the world who are just as susceptible to crazy ass violence as the muslims are


it'd be funny if they tried to blow up the vatican - i would seriously LOL all day long

it'd be as if we blew up their precious fuckin mosque out in jerusalem

i can't stand islam. or any other religion for that matter. but just to bring to light an interesting thought i just had


thousands of people tailgate at nc state football games over the years
2 people get shot and suddenly there are massive restrictions and everyone is pissed off

isn't it sort of the same with muslims, extrapolated out to a larger scale?

10,000 muslims or so preach specific hate, hate america, commit terrorist acts and stuff and because of that we end up hating 1 billion people

"In his speech, the pope quoted 14th-century Byzantine emperor Manuel II Paleologus who said: "Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached.""


If somebody on the street said that, or in some church somewhere, nobody would give a shit, but when then the pope himself, who is supposed to be the saint of all saints says that, we are going to have problems.

My problem though is that Muslims go ape shit if anything about their religion is mentioned in a negative light.

Yet fucking Madonna can go on stage as Jesus Christ and nobody gives a fuck, or its freedom of speech/expression. Say or do something that pokes fun at Islam and your in a world of shit.

I think the Pope made an insensitive comment, duh. But hey when somebody calls me violent, and then I say "No I'm not" and then go outside and shoot guns, burn Bibles, and call death to the person that called me violent, it kinda validates their point, ya know?

^^exactly

Christians and Christian figures are mocked all the time and you dont see Christians burning down buildings and stuff. But let the pope or some cartoonist in denmark say something about Islam and every "tolerant, peaceful, loving" muslim loses his mind.

"WE ARE A RELIGION OF PEACE!!! NOW DIE YOU BLASPHEMING INFIDEL AMERICAN NAZI!!!"

Nobody is disputing that Christianity hasn't been used as the basis of many wars. Thats not the issue, at least in my mind. Religion in general has been a major part or starting factor in many of the wars in human history.

But if somebody shows a picture of Jesus and takes a shit on it, or something, I feel bad for that person and maybe pray for them or something. If somebody makes a joke about Christians or Christianity, I usually have a sense of humor enough to laugh at it, unless its something really tasteless. Muslim clerics regularly denounce Christians and issue messages about burning the West and slaughtering the Jews and Christians. Do we rampage in the streets though and burn images of Muhammad? Nope. Thats the irony of the situation. With their stampede against the cartoons in Europe, I wonder what the Muslim communities reaction would be if Trey and Matt wrote Muhammad into some South Park episodes like Jesus. Would they have a death threat issued on them? In all probability, I think they would.

People just need to chill and respect the fact that not everybody agrees with your religion, politics, or whatever. And blowing them up will not make the situation any better.

the reason why christains arent killing people is becuase they arent the underdogs anymore. THEY ARE THE SUPERPOWER.

there is no reason to be offended. they won, they are holding all the cards.

Correct. Its sort of like the way white people are never offended by any sort of racial epithet and why we laugh when Black people dress up like whites and mock us... when you are the big boy on the block its really not a big deal. Honestly, I can't think of a single thing someone can say, in regards to me being white, that could even remotely offend me.

Have you heard of the Middle East? Africa? Hell, most of Europe for that matter. Christianity is not a 'superpower' as you seem to think it is. As of 2000, the world was about 30% Christian and declining...Islam accounted for 21% and growing, and that's not counting Hindu (14%) and non-religious (16%). In short, non-Christians are the majority in the world, and Islam is the strongest non-Christian religion on Earth.

"In response to being labeled evil and inhuman by a dead Byzantine emperor, a group of Muslims did what anyone would do in that situation: They firebombed two churches in the West Bank.

This is funny on so many levels that I hardly know where to start. But let me begin by saying WHAT THE HELL ARE CHURCHES DOING IN THE WEST BANK?????????

There wasn’t much detail in the article I read, but I’m assuming those churches were made of straw and had bulls eyes painted on the steeples. I don’t even think the Crocodile Hunter would have attended services in one of those churches. I can imagine the conversation today between the guy who recommended building churches in the epicenter of religious violence and the people who told him it was a bad idea. If he’s smart – probably for the first time – he’s blaming God. “He is testing us.”"

I like how Scott Adams writes five words pointing out the idiocy of violent muslims freaking over being called violent.

then spends 3 paragraphs making fun of palestinian christians and the pope.

eh... just goes to show.
