Christopher Hitchens on Islam

redhawk19691 Says:

Nov 21, 2008 - Just in the same way as hundreds of thousands of Hindus that work in rich Muslim states like Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, UAE, Qatar, Bahrain,Oman and Turkey and take that money and go to their own pilgrimage at the Ganges (they believe the river is a goddess). Of course we Muslims dont view this money as wasted as we believe people can have freedom of religion. For you to make fun of the Muslim pilgrimage is insulting and I am sure the hindus living in Muslim countries dont agree with you. God bless

Nov 21, 2008 - I think sometimes Hitchens is just opinionated and unwilling to listen to anyone but himself.

Nov 21, 2008 - agressionll; you are not arguing with the undecided, they are liars, hypocrites, morons, Jews and Zionists (redundant I guess). Hitchens is a JEW, 'nuff said.

Nov 21, 2008 - God bless your words brother and thank you for your logical arguement. Islam has always respected Christians and Jews. It is unfortunate what is happening now in this world and how people talk about Islam when they do not know anything about it. Peace.

agressionll Says:

Nov 21, 2008 - Thank you for your kind words and God Bless you too.

agressionll Says:

Nov 21, 2008 - Actually AkatsukiKanjiKana3, Muhammad was an agnostic whilst he was growing up. When God's message was revealed unto him, Allah was used as the term for Supreme God, Chrisitans and Jews living in the Arabian peninsula use "Allah" as the term to describe God in the Bible and Torah. Furthermore I seriously do not know where you are getting your information from becacuse people fund their own pillgrimages.

agressionll Says:

Nov 21, 2008 - Such Hiprocracy from a Hindu, the Ka'bah is not a temple. And how dare you contradict us on kissing the black stone, when you kiss and fondle your own idols, there is a fine line between reverence and worship i.e. looking at pictures of a dead loved one is not worship or idoltary. You have provided a baseless argument which is weak and untrue, so maybe next time you try to argue atleast find some true facts from Muslim Sources, not twisted Hindu Sources.

AkatsukiKanjiKana3 Says:

Nov 21, 2008 - Provide evidence that "allah" exists(without resorting to thoroughly discredited a priori fabrications). Peace in fundamental Islamic countries today is only for those that are Terrorist sympathizers or pay the zakat tax to the Local Muslim Governor. The muslim terrorists that we see today r the biological conclusions of the life (and lifestyle) of Muhammed, an obsolete product of barbaric Arab culture. He went frm kindness to violence. That is the progression of the Quran frm beginning to end.

AkatsukiKanjiKana3 Says:

Nov 21, 2008 - Mo brought even more stupidity and perversion for his ppl when he spread his religion, Islam. Islamic culture? Of the 7th century. Islamic science? Of the 7th century. Nothing modern in Islam. Only stupid ppl take Islam as their religion, and Mo as a savior / prophet. All the prophets after Abraham in the Bible, are of Abraham family. But Mo is not frm Abraham decendant. He is not the descendant of Ishmael as the Muslims believe. No proof about it. He is the incarnation of Lucifer himself. 666

AkatsukiKanjiKana3 Says:

Nov 21, 2008 - Islam brings stagnation to humankind. It stopped at the 7th cent, and has not development ever since. The problem with Islam or Muslim is, they consider themselves as the most perfect people in the universe. The only one's deserving of Janah (sensual paradise of their Pimp God), all Anti-Islam will go to Hell. When someone considers himself as the number one, than he will achieve progress no more. And Islam/Moslem has been like that since the 7th Century. Islam is an obstacle for modernization.

AkatsukiKanjiKana3 Says:

Nov 21, 2008 - Lying to an enemy of islam is totally allowed by the prophet who never himself practiced honesty & deceived the whole world along side Al-Mu'akhir (The Great Deceiver). It was narrated that Asma Bint Yazeed said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: It is not permissible to tell lies except in three (cases): when a man speaks to his wife in a way to please her; lying in war; and lying in order to reconcile between people. (Narrated by al-Tirmidhi, 1939)

AkatsukiKanjiKana3 Says:

Nov 21, 2008 - The muslim world has contributed next to nothing to science; they are thoroughly anti-scientific, and anti-knowledge by nature, blame the Barbaric ancestrys' genes & DNA. I see many Christians fighting Evolution, but Muslims POOP their pants on the subject. The total body of arabic literature and other publications of all times is less then what is published in any small Western country in a year. Islam glorifies stupidity and ignorance. The basis for their whole culture is thievery and murder.

Peppercoin490 Says:

Nov 21, 2008 - Actually, Akatsuk, there have been a plethora of contributions from many Muslim philosophers and writers that have defined the face of modern thought and aesthetic. And since you said Arabic literature and not "Muslim" Literature, see 'Khalil Gibran'- one of the foremost Lebanese-American thinkers of the twentiest century. Oh yeah, not to mention he's the third best-selling author of all time, right behind Shakespeare. This is one example, but to make the assertion that you did is inaccurate.

zakimar Says:

Nov 22, 2008 - redhawk19691, agressionll, and Peppercoin490; You have to ignore sons of whores like AkatsukiKanjiKana3. He is frustrated that his "father" is a homosexual and thus he has no idea from where his filthy genes come. I think he is just another Jew trying to spread his Zionist propaganda. If he was a dot Indian, he would realize India never had it better than when they were ruled by the Mughals. The greatest building in India is the Taj Mahal, built by a Muslim. Keep spreading the truth.

redhawk19691 Says:

Nov 22, 2008 - Akatsuki: Bro, either you come from another planet or you define science in a different way from the rest of the world. The Arabic/Muslim world has contributed almost more than any other civilization to science. When Europe were in the dark ages the Muslim world has invented science. Famous Muslim scientists include : Ibn Hayyan (father of chemistry), Al-Biyruni (first geologist), Ibn Sina(father of modern medicine),Al-khawarizmi (invented Algebra).

redhawk19691 Says:

Nov 22, 2008 - Zakimar: Dear brother, while I dont agree with insulting other people's religions (as I respect all religions equally), I agree that the most beautiful building in India is the mosque Taj Mahal. It is amazing how a country with about 80% Hindus cannot produce a marvel like that.

ottomanstud Says:

Nov 22, 2008 - at tirmidhi wat??... gimme the page and chapter..go on i dare you and wats that 1939 lmao wat the hell.. no hadiths were said in 1939.. our prophet passed away in 631 u dumbass

zakimar Says:

Nov 22, 2008 - redhawk19691; I didn't insult any other religion. I don't hate all Jews, just stinking, rotten, evil, genetically misinformed Zionist Jews. Real Jews follow the Torah, Zionists follow a racist, dirty, hateful collection of pig excrement called the Talmud. But thank you, I'll chose my words more carefully in the future.

AkatsukiKanjiKana3 Says:

Nov 22, 2008 - And for a faith that claims "no compulsion in religion", how does one explain the absence of churches, synagogues, Hindu temples and other religious buildings & books critical of Islam (e.g. Bible, Vedas etc.) in some (granted not all) Islamic nations, especially the bastion / birthplace of Islam, Saudi Arabia? Most of the Arabs living in Middle East have been brainwashed and intellectually censored, and also intimidated, so that those Arabs are more narrow minded, half the women are illiterate.

AkatsukiKanjiKana3 Says:

Nov 22, 2008 - Where are the Arab equivalents to Beethoven, Mozart, Shakespeare, Goethe, Moliere, Dickens, Michaelangelo, Rembrandt, Einstein, Newton, Lavoisier, Curie, Gandhi and the long list goes on. Any pre-Rennaiscance Arab advances in mathematics and the sciences were made IN SPITE of Islam, not bcus of it. Islamic religious leaders thru the ages have put a stop to advancement, bcus Islam in its truest application is anti-culture & anti-knowledge. Unless it's for the pursuit of sophisticated weaponry.

AkatsukiKanjiKana3 Says:

Nov 22, 2008 - The concept of loyalty & disavowal: Loyalty to the believers is manifested in the saying of Allaah (which reads): Let not believers take disbelievers as allies [i.e. supporters or protectors] rather than believers. And whoever [of you] does that has nothing [i.e. no association] with Allaah [Quran 3:28] Wud one befriend the disbelievers after this? Wud he support them? Wud he feel compassion towards them? Wud he socialise with them? Wud he join forces with them against his Muslim brothers?

AkatsukiKanjiKana3 Says:

Nov 22, 2008 - To those that claim Quran is a font of scientific knowledge. Y did no Muslim in 1400 YEARS manage to deduce the laws of planetary motion, Big Bang, relativity, elecromagnetic theoriesi, invent computers or the internet etc., frm the Quran? Why is it only AFTER Kafirs (non-Muslims) have made these breakthroughs that Muslims all of the sudden discover Quranic "scientific miracles"? Muslim world struggles for Democracy & Human Rights. Name 1 single invention that came frm a muslim out of the quran.

cocksuckerfaggotmodi Says:

Nov 22, 2008 - the quran purpotedly carries the knowledge but it is inherent upon the reader to discern. after the prophet died, the caliphs abu bakr, umar, usmantook over. they wrote false hadiths contrary to the quran, started conquests and maligned the name of islam. today, 85 percent plus muslims honor those three and walk in their corrupt legacy.

cocksuckerfaggotmodi Says:

Nov 22, 2008 - you cannot say you hate zionists but like religious jews for judaism is paganism. after moses, the khazars integrated occultism into their practices. they instigated the murder of christ and maligned his teachings. christianity is a pagan sham. the bible was written 40 years after christ's death. paul was a bounty hunter who was responsible for the death's of true christians. christianity adopted the pagan nonsense that existed in judaism.

cocksuckerfaggotmodi Says:

Nov 22, 2008 - thanks for showing complete ignorance retard. if it wasn't for the arab preservation of ancient greek texts of philosophy, geometry and persian, indian arab contribution to algebra, there wouldn't have been a Sir Isaac Newton. gandhi had deep respect forislam. he feared fanaticism and superiority complexes in all religions. that is why white british christians, nationalists hindus and muslims, both hated him. islam isn't anti- knowledge, wahhabism/ salafism are. you need to research more.
