Liberals, AKA most of /lit/, are contrarians. They were raised with Christianity. Islam hates Christianity. Ergo, they defend and idealize Islam because it goes against what their parents raised them with.

TLDR: Petulant children trying to rebel not realizing the danger of what they're defending.

/lit/ reads a lot of Christian shit too. you just like to pretend your little story here is more true than the bible. it's kind of cute, but it probably shows up in your sexual performance that you're so hung up on certain subjects that you can't tell a book of poems from a life threatening situation. women pick up on that shit, bro, just fyi.

>Islam hates Christianity
Confirmed for knowing nothing of Islam past the news headlines. A couple of examples. Muslim prayer includes a wish of peace toward the enitre Abrahamic family (i.e., Judaism and Christianity in addition to Islam). Also a Muslim is quick to proclaim 'peace be upon him/her' (PBUH) when mentioning Jesus, Mary, or other biblical figures shared by the Qur'an.

>> No.7922160

Islam is a religion of endless revenge, so I guess when you're pissed off at someone, there's that

Judaism has the same thing. It's not an eye for an eye, it's an infinite number of eyes for an eye. This is also the main reason why the Middle East is a goddamn shithole

Most of that modern 'moderate' muslims hate nowadays.

All they want to do now is imitate the prophet in the most detailled sense imagineable ( like going to sleep on the right shoulder, because that's how it was written ).

That's just America being interventionists asses and not letting nature take its course.

Accumulating a bunch of anecdotes changes shit.

Just the other day an Indonesian christian got caned for selling alcohol.
Every majority muslim country on Earth is a fucking shithole. Even if you throw massive amounts of wealth at it ( the Gulf ), it doesn't help them from being massively backwards in their outlook on how the social body should behave.

The real /lit/ question is:

Stop being dramatic, it's one hater. Islam as practiced in the highlands of Afghanistan and the Arabian peninsula is barbaric. As practiced by wealthy Persian expats it's a perfectly valid religion, excepting it's rigidity of though.

Of all the religions I find nothing really gratifying about it.
