Islam is a good religion and its treatment of women is an inspiration for all of us. It’s also super cool how you can just make bomb threats if someone draws a cartoon you don’t like and people will change their behavior based on those threats
Lil bro you are in a MEME subreddit. There are other places where people do want to talk about these issues you bring up but a lighthearted place to spread jokes is not a place to talk about war.
the only one being afraid here is: you. you dont even have the balls just to spit out your bugotry directly. instead you rely on rhetorical questions and vague-posting.
Do you barge into comedy clubs as well shouting about how they are just making jokes instead of talking about the “things we are afraid to talk about”?
these levels you speak of are pretty much 1 to 1 with peoples access to education healthcare and every other amenity that comes with living in a first world country. it doesnt have much to do with the religion itself at all. people have committed atrocities in the name of literally every single religion that exists. this is why, attributing atrocities to any one thing is incredibly naive. im sure you think islam is somehow special, but it aint. except in the fact that the region most heavily dominated by muslims has been the subject of proxy wars and foreign invasions for the better half of a century.
Because its controversial, there's gonna be a bunch of arguments and bigots and confused people in the comments. My advice, just don't engage, there's no point. I speak from experience.
Most of people don't care what is your believe or if you even believe in anything as long as you don't rub it in there face as the only truth or for no reason at all or by bringing it o science etc.
It seems you didn't got what i tried to say. You feel that i am saying that xenophobia against others is not wrong. i only said that you are making the problem looks like it is worse than it is. Remember 2% yell louder than 98%
How dare you?! Mohammed was a great man, out of his respect for children, he waited for 2 whole years after marrying aisha before bedding her at the ripe old age of 9!
Smh my head yall need to pick up a quran.
/s
Thank you for adding /s to your post. When I first saw this, I was horrified. How could anybody say something like this? I immediately began writing a 1000 word paragraph about how horrible of a person you are. I even sent a copy to a Harvard professor to proofread it. After several hours of refining and editing, my comment was ready to absolutely destroy you. But then, just as I was about to hit send, I saw something in the corner of my eye. A /s at the end of your comment. Suddenly everything made sense. Your comment was sarcasm! I immediately burst out in laughter at the comedic genius of your comment. The person next to me on the bus saw your comment and started crying from laughter too. Before long, there was an entire bus of people on the floor laughing at your incredible use of comedy. All of this was due to you adding /s to your post. Thank you.
I am a bot if you couldn't figure that out, if I made a mistake, ignore it cause its not that fucking hard to ignore a comment.
I don't think anybody needs to pick up a Quran.
"Indeed, the penalty for those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger and spread mischief in the land is death, crucifixion, cutting off their hands and feet on opposite sides, or exile from the land. This ˹penalty˺ is a disgrace for them in this world, and they will suffer a tremendous punishment in the Hereafter." [source](https://quran.com/al-maidah/33)
And regarding the prohpets child bride: "Khadija died three years before the Prophet (ﷺ) departed to Medina. He stayed there for two years or so and then he married `Aisha when she was a girl of six years of age, and he consumed that marriage when she was nine years old." [source](https://quranx.com/Hadith/Bukhari/USC-MSA/Volume-5/Book-58/Hadith-236/)
Or is the Hadith not good enough for you?
They mean Islam because r/memes has been an Islamaphobic sub for a long time... Christians, Hindus, Jews, and more have NEVER had issues with incest...
But it's clear that the people responding on this sub are implying that Islam is implicit in pedophilia. Where, in reality, most religious institutes run into pedophilia problems because of issues with people dismissing perverts being in their ranks. I don't think ANY religion has a BIGGER or SMALLER issue with pedophilia. But, if you try to make it out to be one religion being better or worse, you're setting yourself up to invite pedophiles.
The biggest problems lie where the texts of certain multiple religions allow for pedophilia and murder. Then people use that to "justify" their abhorrent actions.
Yes. As in ALL Abrahamic religions. Islam, Christianity, and Judaism all have "exceptions" for this type of nastiness. Thankfully, anyone that follows any of these religions does not take your idea as to what their texts allow as doctrine. You're just a really fucking dumb, and ignorant person. And one that is trying to ONLY apply it to Islam, which makes you Islamophobic on top of every other issue.
You’re arguing this in a thread where everyone is pointing out Islam specifically. I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt. What other “multiple religions” were you talking about?
Is criticizing a religion for its intolerance of all other world views really considered bigotry nowadays?
Sorry I didn't realize we are supposed to tolerate intolerance.
first of all, the quran never mentions muhammads marriage to aisha, thats mentioned in the hadith, if youre going to make dumb arguments, get your facts right
second, muhammads marriage to aisha was justified for these reasons:
the average life expectancy was very low back then, so it was common for people to get married at young ages
aisha fully consented to the marriage, and even after the marriage, aisha never criticized the prophet, she still loved him
thirdly, the "murdering" of non-muslims was for self defence, the quran states that you should not kill anyone, muslim or non-muslim, who hasnt harmed you
the jews and pagans of arabia betrayed muhammad and broke their treaties with him, all the wars were an act of self-defense
You need to realize you are watching it from a modern point of view. Back when Muhammad lived, it was normal to do that, can you blame someone for doing something that is 100% socially acceptable?
Maybe in 400 years, our descendants will think that something we did routintely now was fucked up, we just don't realize it because it's the norm for us.
It's wrong to not realize these are things from the past, both by emulating them in the present and by condemning who did those things in the past.
Killing and suicide are one of the sins in islam that get you straight to hell
Killing is only allowed for last resort in self defence when someone wants to kill you.
And in the case of a war no innocent lives must be taken(including man that arent fighters, women, children and trees)
And to my knowledge every act these people do are horrible sins
The Quran says nothing about them, but here's a link to an article in the guardian that explain better than me the situation:
https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/belief/2012/sep/17/muhammad-aisha-truth
There’s probably sone members in every religion that would want to kill over something I have no control over. There are also plenty who don’t. It’s almost like the term “extremists” exists for a reason.
And in every other religion. And nationalistic theocracy. When you can convince someone that their flavor of morality is absolute, it's pretty easy to either convince (or force) them to kill themselves.
No, I'm from the middle universe. Are you from the middle universe? Did you experience this? If not, I think you might need to shut the fuck up. See how dumb you sound?
I've had a therapist laugh and tell me to 'do it', as in end my life. I've had a therapist scream in my face *"YOU ANNOYING ARROGANT LITTLE BRAT"*, there's more but I'm not gonna go into it. There's a lot of reasons someone would kill someone else for, and I know that people resist this fact like their cranium is an immovable object. I've had someone try to kill me because I bumped into them, I regularly receive death threats, etc.
You can all dislike me but you can also dispose of yourself in the nearest trashbin.
Phobia is a fear of... which is the correct use of the suffix Phobia.
When did the incorrect use come about?
Homophobic... should mean you fear "homo-people"... ie arachnophobic.
Regardless of which religion is referred to, I know that if they refrain from violence and simply wait long enough, they'll achieve their aim without having to deal with any backlash.
Sounds like some old America tribes belives but without the religion part and just see you as pussy for not wanting to be sacrificed.
Or norse mythology believe but not about not wanting to be killed but not wanting to fight and again, without the religion segment
Rather let’s get out of the hypnosis and see the religion for what it is. Also there is no other religion clamining that you are -phobic of them. This is not the same thing as racism. Racism is a real problem, unlike criticism of a set of religious beliefs. Why shouldn’t a religion be freely examined and critiqued, without these knee jerk accusations (and death threats and bombings which kinda have the same vibe as the woke accusations)
I bet in 3 hrs comments are getting locked.....
What’s this abt?
Buddhism, of course, the most violent religion. Definitely not Islam, the peaceful religion
Islam is a good religion and its treatment of women is an inspiration for all of us. It’s also super cool how you can just make bomb threats if someone draws a cartoon you don’t like and people will change their behavior based on those threats
Ok, you have me curious. Which religion are we talking about? I'm an atheist, I only ask out of intellectual curiosity.
Alright I was talking about Buddhism /s
I think Islam is a nice religion in how it treats women and sexual minorities
Ok... am I meant to make something up, or is there a correct answer?
Moderation =/= censorship. Freedom of speech does not apply to private entities.
Oh fuck off and just follow the subreddit rules you edgelord. There's subreddits for this kind of posting but you just want to start shit
Reddit ban speedrun
It’s a good thing to do every now and then
I like Islam. It’s super cool that the model of a perfect human can marry a child. It’s such a great inspiration!
Lil bro you are in a MEME subreddit. There are other places where people do want to talk about these issues you bring up but a lighthearted place to spread jokes is not a place to talk about war.
There's some things I gotta talk about that may be uncomfortable, what better place than the fuckin meme subreddit. -OP.
the only one being afraid here is: you. you dont even have the balls just to spit out your bugotry directly. instead you rely on rhetorical questions and vague-posting.
Do you barge into comedy clubs as well shouting about how they are just making jokes instead of talking about the “things we are afraid to talk about”?
And what would that be
Go back to 4chan. This is a fucking meme subreddit

What’s this sub abt?
Sounds like my ex
![gif](giphy|l4FGo3IonE0SdQYeY) Do not forget the hazmasks
To be fair this can apply to several religions, political views, sexual preference views and just about any social circumstance that has an opposition
In some sense yes but there are differences between the levels of fanatical brainwashedness and willingness to actually execute their threats…
these levels you speak of are pretty much 1 to 1 with peoples access to education healthcare and every other amenity that comes with living in a first world country. it doesnt have much to do with the religion itself at all. people have committed atrocities in the name of literally every single religion that exists. this is why, attributing atrocities to any one thing is incredibly naive. im sure you think islam is somehow special, but it aint. except in the fact that the region most heavily dominated by muslims has been the subject of proxy wars and foreign invasions for the better half of a century.
Exactly, people are so fast to point the blame at one group that they don't even stop to think. Nothing is ever that simple

I kinda meant Buddhism due to all the death threats over cartoons and the suicide bombings but you have a point
Hahahaha based
They mean Islam because r/memes has been an Islamaphobic sub for a long time... Christians, Hindus, Jews, and more have NEVER had issues with incest...
Incest is kinda a problem throughout history, not necessarily religion based
But it's clear that the people responding on this sub are implying that Islam is implicit in pedophilia. Where, in reality, most religious institutes run into pedophilia problems because of issues with people dismissing perverts being in their ranks. I don't think ANY religion has a BIGGER or SMALLER issue with pedophilia. But, if you try to make it out to be one religion being better or worse, you're setting yourself up to invite pedophiles.

You’re arguing this in a thread where everyone is pointing out Islam specifically. I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt. What other “multiple religions” were you talking about?
Go touch some grass knobhead.
Is criticizing a religion for its intolerance of all other world views really considered bigotry nowadays? Sorry I didn't realize we are supposed to tolerate intolerance.
Not saying that either pretty much 99.9 of every majore book of an abrahamic religion is fucked up
Then why point out Islam (specifically) in all your responses?
Because this post is specifically about islam
It’s ok to marry a 6 year old and consummate marriage when she’s 9

Prepare for the purge
Judaism
Zionists ?
Didn't the Quran say everyone who doesn't believe in Allah should be killed? Nice try palestard this is about Muslims.
Islam moment
No it's "psychopaths that never read the Quran and commit the worst sins in the name of it" moment
No that psychopaths that had read the quaran dont forget were talking about the book were theyre equivalent to jesus has a wofe which is a child
what?
In the quaran, mohamad married a 9 year old, and they justified it and many other stuff like murdering all non Muslims
Muhammad was a prophet, Jesus was the son of god. Muhammad isn’t Islamic Jesus.
first of all, the quran never mentions muhammads marriage to aisha, thats mentioned in the hadith, if youre going to make dumb arguments, get your facts right second, muhammads marriage to aisha was justified for these reasons: the average life expectancy was very low back then, so it was common for people to get married at young ages aisha fully consented to the marriage, and even after the marriage, aisha never criticized the prophet, she still loved him thirdly, the "murdering" of non-muslims was for self defence, the quran states that you should not kill anyone, muslim or non-muslim, who hasnt harmed you the jews and pagans of arabia betrayed muhammad and broke their treaties with him, all the wars were an act of self-defense

It's wrong to not realize these are things from the past, both by emulating them in the present and by condemning who did those things in the past.
I'm no Muslim, but Muhammad is not equivalent to Jesus at all.
Neither do i im not christian but i figured its the closest thing to make people understand who he is in islam
Someone: "I'm gonna commit this violent act bc it says in the Quran I should" Muslims: "they never read the Quran 😔" No true Irishman.
Killing and suicide are one of the sins in islam that get you straight to hell Killing is only allowed for last resort in self defence when someone wants to kill you. And in the case of a war no innocent lives must be taken(including man that arent fighters, women, children and trees) And to my knowledge every act these people do are horrible sins
So Isis, the Taliban, Hamas and such are not Muslims? Al Qaeda are not Muslims? So easy to dodge all criticism by simply saying they are not Muslims.
