8/8/2007 - Yay, another political maniac

Geert Wilders strikes again. This country's most prominent enemy of Islam has come up with a new idea. Let's outlaw the Qur'an. He argues that so many people have been killed by people seeking their justification in this holy book of Muslims, and that it's so full of bloodshed. Hey, I myself could live with it, under one condition... Let's outlaw the Bible as well. Actually, I'm against banning either, but if you ban one, you must ban the other.

I mean, when Moses received the Ten Commandments, one of those commandments was "Thou shalt not kill." However, when Joshua and the twelve tribes set out to conquer the promised land, they immediately shedded this fourth commandment and slaughtered anyone who didn't flee. If God condoned that, who is to say that Israel isn't allowed to butcher the Palestineans?

Also, think of all those witches who have been persecuted and burnt, because people felt the Bible ordered them to do so. The Christians hiding under sheets, burning crosses and lynching African Americans. The sectarian violence in Northern Ireland. The bombings of abortion clinics in the US. The persecution of Jews throughout history. The call for people to be stoned or put to death otherwise for committing certain crimes. If you love your child, don't spare it the rod. Many parts of the Bible put men above women. Need I say more? Outlaw the Qur'an, outlaw the Bible.

Or... respect the faith of others, however critical you are, as long as they leave you at peace, and only fight the individuals abusing these books, instead of the books themselves.

8/8/2007 - G'day Dutchboy.

Posted by DAWNIE

I'm with you, if one is banned then all religous books of all persuasions have to be banned. The big three religions are very interconnected although some people don't like to think they are. It is not the books fault that some people go troppo and use the holy book as their excuse for their evil deeds and thoughts. And if you ban one book because it is supposed to be violent where & when does the process stop? Then you will have another group screaming for their rights to freedom and fair enough. Their is room in this big world for all sorts of thoughts and ideas and as long as people are a peace loving souls with respect for other peoples equal rights that's all that should matter. I believe in letting people march to the music they hear so long as they are peaceful and have the respect to let all other people do like wise.
LOVE N' HUGS FROM DAWNIE ('.')
