The Muzzies Are Going To Mars!

[Svartalf]

They should all of them go spread islam to the sun...

[Brian Peacock]

It's not stupid. It's a relevant ethical question. Can we send people to Mars when we can't get them back home and they have no means of survival for more than a short time.

I saw a documentary about that. You can easily grow potatoes in your own poop to survive.

Yes, notice the photo I posted above. But that guy only had to survive until a rescue team arrived.

[laklak]

We should encourage them.

[Brian Peacock]

But we can't let them get to the oil of Mars first. We need to call Bruce Willis stat!

[Seabass]

Just what we need, Space Muzzies.

They'll want a Martian caliphate, of course...

[Brian Peacock]

Perhaps they're just looking for the seventh heaven.

Spreading Islam (to Mars) is surely a righteous reason.

Convert those tentacled aliens to Islam by the sword!

[laklak]

They're taking the Muzzies to Isenmars!

The hypocrisy is enormous. What do those Islamic scholars say about the encouragement for volunteers to blow themselves up in the name of Allah? Oh, right. They are rewarded with 72 virgins in their afterlife.

Fuck off, Sunni Muslim ethicists.

for no “righteous reason,”

A bit like the Judaeo/Christian "Thou shalt not kill" then. There is so much small print to consider, and there are so many possible interpretations thereof that theologians can argue forever what is justified and what is not. My guess is that if there is some real or perceived advantage for a Muslim power to send people to Mars there will be plenty of Imams who approve of doing so, and they will find plenty of support in the Qu'ran, the Sunnah and hadith for it.

[Sean Hayden]

Indeed, and well put Hermit.

If we put some Jews on Mars first perhaps they can go first and suicide them 'n all.
