hey dudes, so what happened to our fine discussions about so-called "Muslim-terrorism" here in the woodshed...

and Sua's anti-Muslim hate list has magically disappeared as well?

...so finally (hopefully) in closing here regarding religiously bigoted NB posts - Cortillian requested two answers - one - a name and link to one NB individual claiming Islam was a religion of terrorism...
...so before I post this name and link, just wondering, Cortillian - what do I get for this complete and definitive answer to your question - an actual posted admission from you - finally - that NB posters are indeed accusing all Muslims of being terrorists - or another frackin weasel out? I'm betting the latter...

...but beyond that - even calling just one scumbag terrorist "Muslim" does in fact label the whole faith as terrorist - for it must be a tenet of the faith that all Muslims believe, support, AND PRACTICE - otherwise, if all do not, then it is not part of the faith whatsoever...it's either one or the other - and since all Muslim's do not support and practice terrorism - then terrorism is not taught by Islam and it is totally impossible for one to be a "Muslim terrorist...."
...for instance - all Christians believe in, support, and PRACTICE forgiveness - therefore it can be well and truly said that Christianity is a "religion of forgiveness" - for all Christians embrace and practice it...
Now referring to this post:

excerp: "when you say we are calling these terrorists "Muslim", this is pure ignorance on your part since you surely haven't been paying attention. They call themselves that, they are pushing for jihad, sharia law and so forth. Call me crazy but I think those are of the Muslim faith. They wage these atrocities in the name of Islam, Allah and you're not sure they are Muslims?"
this is what I mean - many Christians could band together (and indeed have from time to time) and commit terrorism "in the name of Jesus" - so by this logic that would make the group "Christian terrorists" - which is simply not possible - just like so-called "Islamic terorists" are just not possible - once you commit an atrocity you cease true devotion to the faith and your status as a member - THIS IS AN IRREFUTABLE FACT - and for simply trying to point this out I am desperately labeled an "appeaser" and an "apologist" - the "douchemonger" - truly pathetic denial over and over again...
...rounding things out here, despite having to be associated with the constant religious bigotry here, it's been pretty hilarious how you guys love to constantly bitch about Muslims "not denouncing" terror enough, yet when a link to those who do is always presented, you just insist it's lying propaganda - gee, that's encouraging - no wonder why more Muslims don't go way out of their way to come here and post as much "terror-denouncing" as you demand - just to try and finally satisfy you bigots - if this is the treatment they are going to get...
IMO what it obviously comes down to is you don't really seem to want Muslims to denounce terrorism at all - perhaps so you can rationalize your continued bigotry against Islam...
And how truly sad for you that I, a conservative fundamentalist Christian - who in my heart vehemently but respectfully opposes the central religious tenets of Islam, has to keep trying to enlighten you on all this...

Question two was about Mohammed being a pedophile...
I've asked this question many times here about the so-called "age of consent" being 18 or 21 - where do these numbers come from...? It's not Biblical - and Kentucky is still 14 I believe...?
...so Mohammed married this Ayesha or whatever her name was - the age is in dispute somewhere between 9 and 14 - and we will never know for sure now - but let's just say it was 9 for arguments sake...
9-year olds and younger married all over the world 2000 years ago - some still probably do somewhere today. So if the "age of consent" comfort level for you is 10 or above - then go ahead and call the guy a ped - I really don't care other than it's highly sensative language and again it could seriously hamper vital WOT partnerships with over a billion Muslims - so if you must bring it up - I suggest you do it tactfully and carefully - as for me I will never be able to conclude one way or the other myself, and really see no pressing need to bring it up in my travels any time soon...
in short it sounds like the case you are trying to make against Mohammed is the same ridiculous case this guy is trying to make for "God as a paedophile"
