Australia raids over 'Islamic State plot to behead'

Its just funny to me that an atheist is telling me what God, differing religions worship.

They are the same God to you. But, you don't believe in God so it is a safe bet you are just trying to make Christianity and Judaism look as bad as Islam.

It's in the books man.

I wonder what Booyah! would have to say about this?

You're incorrect once again. This is not about your belief or mine. It's about the beliefs of those who profess monotheism.

Muslims, Christians and Jews worship the one and same deity. They all agree on that, regardless or your persuasion or mine.

In fact, if you believe in god, you would realize that by indicting Islam you also must indict Christianity and Judaism.

Is is really not all that complicated.

One would have to have read the books, in order to know that, wouldn't one now?

Or google articles from other people that have. Either way. I'm not reading all three, there's far better reads out there.

Coward! I gotta agree. Although there are some interesting stories, as a whole I find the bible makes very little sense as a cohesive document. I find it quite surprising that it has survived as a basis for belief. It is constantly contradictory and the quality of the writing varies enormously and for most people, the translations offered provide more points for confusion than they do for cohesion.

Like I said earlier......just ask those who are "believers".

See what they think.

Why? I'd much rather you presented some proof of our contention that the muslim religion is the 'most dangerous' than ask believers if they know whether the god they worship is the same god that the other lot worship.

Simple. Read,watch or listen to the news.

What news? Nothing I have read points to your conclusion. There are definitely some horrible goings on in the middle east and I am more than thankful I don't live in the region but not because I am scared of muslims or their belief system. I must be reading the wrong news. Please, precis it for me as you claim it's an all pervading truth that I seem to have missed. Thanks.

I must be reading the wrong news.

I agree.

[Curmudgeon 227]

I agree.

Well, you have made a lot of posts but nothing to substantiate your claims, not even a teeny bit. I'll carry on reading the 'wrong' news, I don't think I would get much out of a news source that claimed muslims are a bit suspect.

Put head in sand....always works.

If you're gonna believe whatever you want, why would you need a book? Like I said, all three worship the God of Abraham. Which means they all worship the same God but have created different rules. So two out of three, or all three, made up some stuff.
