I'll have to play Devil's advocate here and point out that all but one of the verses on this page come from Khomeini, not from the Qur'an. Just because Khomeini says it doesn't mean it's a teaching of Islam. Likewise, if Jerry Falwell says something, it doesn't mean it's a Christian doctrine or even embraced by many Christians.

As for the one verse that does come from the Qur'an, few muslims that I've met seem to take those verses sexually. How Muhammed meant it, we may never know.

The rest of the Web site goes a long way toward trying to equate the religion of Islam with the reign and zealotry of the Taliban.

And really, nothing they quote from the Quran or even Khomeini is any worse that what you can find somewhere in the Bible or spouted by one of "Christ's followers". (Koresh and Jones come to mind.)

Quote:
We have the materials and the evidence to prove that this false religion is nothing more than a barbaric occult invented by savages for savages.
Ignoring the rather blatantly racist overtones, what exactly is this sentence supposed to instill in the reader? I don't know about you, but it hardly seems to be fostering an attitude of reason, tolerance, and peace....

Echo,

I agree with your statements.

Falwell, though, is not the religious leader of an entire nation. A lot of people agree with him but I would venture to say that they are in the minority.

It disturbs me that things like this are not generally known and that moderate muslims do not loudly denounce such statements.

I originally posted this link in this <a href="http://iidb.org/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=45&t=001363" target="_blank">thread</a> in partial response to smugg's comment.

Peace,
Janaya

On a humerous sidenote (if anything on that page can be considered humorous) wouldn't you be just a bit suspicious of 'meat' from the next village over? Eeewww.

I just tried to register onto their Forums, apparently its been closed after allowing me to enter my details (including an email for activation), strange....

I smell a rat.

When I start getting spammed to join the KKK i'll tell you.

Personally I think its made up qoutes, could be wrong.

Deadbeat,

Just FYI, they also have this <a href="http://christianityexposed.com/" target="_blank">web site.</a>

And I agree that you can find just as many bad things about Christianity. I think that Christianity has more or less evolved into a 'gentler, kinder' religion, at least in the West, but Islam, for the most part, has not.

Just curious, what do you find racist about that statement? (I'm probably just being an idiot in not seeing it.)

Peace,
Janaya

ageofreason2000,

You could be right. I have not verified that the quotes are genuine, which is one reason I wanted to discuss it.

I do not know why you couldn't register. I successfully registered on their sister site. (See above post.) I think that HelenM is registered on that site as well, though it could be a different Helen. I haven't actually asked her.

Peace,
Janaya

Isn't anyone else interested in discussing this?
