I’m sure if you dig around the obscure depths of the Talmud and Kabbalah, you can find the scriptural “basis” for this lunacy. Whether it’s crazy Muslims or crazy Jews, it’s really the same bizarre ultra-literalism, with tortured interpretations and applications, that lead to patently absurd conclusions whose absurdity is simply dismissed as irrelevant. Another winner is that in the very Orthodox interpretations of Judaism, if your wife and mother of your children is raped, you have to throw her out of the house permanently. Lovely.
I’m not anti-Jewish, but don’t like the hypocrisy of pointing to outlandish beliefs and practices of certain segments of the Muslim population and asserting these as evidence that all Muslims are uncivilized lunatics, while giving ultra-Orthodox Jews a free pass by politely neglecting to mention their comparable beliefs and practices.
So it’s obvious you know nothing about Islam.
Anyone can chime in with the “brave” and “bold” “all religions are equally absurd” nonsense... but that just means you know equally nothing about any of them.
Thanks for playing.
One can say “all religions are the same”...but one cannot say all adherents of all religions act the same.
Fact is, if someone blew up a bus today, the chance he/she was a Muslim is almost 100%.
And please don’t try to equivocate by telling me this or that abortion clinic bomber was a Christian, because no Christian leaders/movements/churches defend this type of behavior.
When a Muslim commits Jihad, all you hear from the Muslims is how he was either justified or framed (but either way, we “had it coming”).
There is a substantial difference here - I have never seen Orthodox Jews sawing someone's head off while chanting Yahweh is Great.
