I hate most Muslims because their women wear too many cloths and I can't tell if they have nice boobs or how fuckable they are.
But Islam is cool.

As you can see, we are a bunch of people who look with a very critical eye all religions, not only islam. What I would be very interested to read would be why did you hate it in the first place, and what changed your mind to the point of converting to that faith.

I don't waste emotional energy on hate. Apathy is the real opposite of love, IMO.

I'm not a fan of blindly following whatever makes you feel good atm to point that you're willing to kill people who get in your way or even simply disagree with whatever you happen to be blindly following atm.

If you want to see the way things really are, as opposed to filtering reality through a comfortable bullshit story, I suggest you question all beliefs and faiths. If there were any evidence that they were true, you wouldn't need belief or faith. It would then be knowledge.

Welcome to the forum! It will be interesting to hear your perspective, as you don't seem to be militant in your approach. :tup:

I'll just let your holy book do the talking.

What the Koran has to say about the value of women, and how to treat them:
2:228 And they (women) have rights similar to those (of men) over them in kindness, and men are a degree above them.

4:34 Men are in charge of women, because Allah hath made the one of them to excel the other, and because they spend of their property (for the support of women). So good women are the obedient, guarding in secret that which Allah hath guarded. As for those from whom ye fear rebellion, admonish them and banish them to beds apart, and scourge them.

4:11 Allah chargeth you concerning (the provision for) your children: to the male the equivalent of the portion of two females, and if there be women more than two, then theirs is two-thirds of the inheritance, and if there be one (only) then the half.

4:24 And all married women (are forbidden unto you) save those (captives) whom your right hands possess.
How to treat non-Muslims:
2:191 And slay them wherever ye find them, and drive them out of the places whence they drove you out, for persecution is worse than slaughter. And fight not with them at the Inviolable Place of Worship until they first attack you there, but if they attack you (there) then slay them. Such is the reward of disbelievers.
What happens to non-Muslims after death:
4:56 Lo! Those who disbelieve Our revelations, We shall expose them to the Fire. As often as their skins are consumed We shall exchange them for fresh skins that they may taste the torment.
About Jews and Christians:
5:64 We have cast among them enmity and hatred till the Day of Resurrection.

5:60 Shall I tell thee of a worse (case) than theirs for retribution with Allah ? (Worse is the case of him) whom Allah hath cursed, him on whom His wrath hath fallen and of whose sort Allah hath turned some to apes and swine, and who serveth idols. Such are in worse plight and further astray from the plain road.
:nono:

Any questions?

I hate spiders and Visigoths. Everything else gets varying degrees of disdain.

Damn. Well done, Kalira9! :clap:

I'm too apathetic about it to bother looking that stuff up for myself.

Hiya, toots.
What is your reason for not liking muslims. Why do you hate Islam?
I don't dislike Muslims. Every Muslim I've met has been pleasant and a good person. Of course, I don't usually tell them I'm a Jew.

I dislike Islam because of how it seems to affect the otherwise sane human mind. For example, it seems to make minds absolutely incapable of telling the difference between disliking Islam and disliking Muslims. That's a damage to thinking that I would not before have thought possible without an ice pick. Yet Islam seems to be able to do it.

I am a new muslim because I converted recently. I was ignorant and when it was removed, I saw the beauty of this faith. Its so clear and simple.
So that answers one question I asked in your intro thread. I suspected as much. :mrgreen:
But, before converting, I also used to hate Islam. Like other people, I thought all muslims were terrorists who want to blow us all up, and all other usual stuff that was anti-islam.
Why on earth would you think that? Most Muslims have no interest in blowing anyone up. They're too busy getting on with living.
But this is not about me. I want to ask you a basic question:

What is your reason for not liking muslims.
Major assumption there, kiddo. I'd hazard a guess that this is about you in some ways. You seem to be assuming that because you used to blindly hate Islam and Muslims then everybody else must be as silly as you were. This isn't the case at all. I get the impression that you said your shahada partly out of guilt when you realised most Muslims were people just like you.That should have been obvious beforehand.
Why do you hate Islam? Just let it out, I want to hear you. If you have serious problem with muslims or islam then say so.
I have a major problem with some Muslims, but it isn't because they are Muslims per se. It is because they are fanatical arseholes who live for killing and destruction. I would have just as big a problem with them if they were being arseholes in the name of anything else other than Islam.
Give you reply and I will come back in a few days to check it all. Thank you in advance.
***Remember, the standard you apply to judge muslims and their beliefs and society, you should first apply the same standard to our western society and to ourselves first.***
Cool, but that will lead to all sorts of criticisms of Islam. You asked for it. :mrgreen:
So, please begin and give me some of your top valid reasons why you are against this religion or against muslims.
If you have more than one then make a short list and write it out. Please dont make a long speech. Just keep it short.

Do you have any good reason to hate muslims and their ideology of Islam ?

lets hear it.
First you have to separate Islam from Muslims, and then you have to separate Muslims into different factions, and then you have to separate the factions into individuals. Forgive me for saying so but you seem to have a very simplistic approach. You give the impression that you want to lump everything in together and not look for finer distinctions.

I think Islam itself is bollocks, and the many and varied reasons for thinking that could make one of those long speeches you seem to want to avoid.
I have nothing against God. It's his fan club I can't stand.

Ok, if you want to claim that you were ignorant before, what evidence it that convinced you that:
1) a god exists?
2) that god is Allah?
3) the Koran is correct?

I'm willing to bet that the true ignorance is what underlies those reasons.
mandelson wrote:But, before converting, I also used to hate Islam. Like other people, I thought all muslims were terrorists who want to blow us all up, and all other usual stuff that was anti-islam.
Well, at least you are supporting your claim that you were ignorant.
mandelson wrote:But this is not about me. I want to ask you a basic question:

Well, unlike you, if I dislike someone, it is because of that person, not because of their religion.

To me, that question is just as idiotic as, "What is your reason for not liking people who own hats?"
mandelson wrote:Why do you hate Islam?
I don't hate it, it disgusts me. It is vile, evil, immoral and intolerant. It is based on ignorance.

In other words, it is virtually identical to every other religion.
P1: I am a nobody.
P2: Nobody is perfect.
C: Therefore, I am perfect

It's all been said, but for what it is worth I loathe and detest Islam. I think it is the most oppressive, limiting, mind controlling and anti-human of all religions. Quite a few of its adherents hate the west and what it stands for using Islam as a justification. Of those, the ones who wish me and mine harm I would happily destroy. The rest? Well I feel sorry for their enslavement.
