Yet again DDT, your sources are biased and misleading. They also show a deep ignorance of Arab culture and history to try and say that Palestinians can just live in any 'Arab' country and have no...

What is it with this thread?? :) Am I ever going to escape from its grasp :lol:

True Arab, I don't think most of the replies tried to connect the terrorist attacks directly to Islam and Muslims. I...

That's a very deep philosophical question DDT :) I think it is possible to believe in certain universal moral truths which are part of the fabric of the universe, if you like, and to say they have an...

:o

Well, on the basis of this post, I can see there's no point trying to convince saibot of the merits of evolution theory. He clearly feels a deep hostility to it and not only considers it to be...

I think it's perfectly acceptable to subject the theory of evolution to critical scrutiny and examine the evidence closely. Most people would say evolution requires more evidence to prove beyond all...

Everyone will want to get their place in this thread now :lol:

Well, if it's not a record, we should probably keep going until it is, now that we've come this far :lol:

Well, he sure as hell didn't believe that the earth was created in 7 days or that God designed each species separately from each other and then placed them upon the earth. Nor did he seek to...

Try as we might, we just can't keep ourselves out of this thread, can we Dobry? :)

Well, I just want to say that this constant association of Einstein with creationism/intelligent design is really...

Pioner, you're doing a great job. But I fear no matter what you say, they're just going to believe what they want to believe.

I'm with you, Cypher. I'm sitting this one out, on the side-lines.

Yup, seems like the smart move :)

If this thread could talk, it would probably request to be put out of its...

:o Oh my god! This is turning into the thread from hell! :lol: We've got the Darwinism v Creationism and the Causes of Terrorism debate running at the same time. All we need now is Vending Machine to...

Yep, I understand that. It's not an issue for many Americans but there still seems to be a sizeable chunk of the population who have a big problem with it. I remember reading some frightening...

Oh no Pioner you've got him started again. This thread is never gonna die :)

Well, I'm staying out of it this time. Just to say, that in Europe there is by and large a consensus among the...

I used to really despise religion and think that all the world's problems would be solved if it just withered away. Now, I think that's a bit simplistic and may in fact have negative consequences....

I think he's hoping to get a job as a contributor to the new edition :lol:

I have pointed out that 9/11 was not USA's first skirmish with the Muslim world and all you can do is attack the messenger by be-littleing the web-site quoted. I could have chosen a dozen sites to...

My point, exactly! "All Muslims are this...", "All Christians are this...", "All Americans are this...", "All Russians are this..."

And yes, the list grows very long. This is my point.
...

:lol: :lol:

So the Barbary pirates motivation was 'strictly religious' and this was part of the first Muslim attack on America. Oh dear, if this is the kind of garbage you base your opinions on,...

Everyone has their own version of history, haven't they? And sadly it looks to me like most people are condemned to always see the world in terms of 'them' and 'us' whether defined by religion or...

Партизан, have you seen the video that was shown recently on Serbian TV of the Scorpions murdering young Muslim men at Srebrenica in 1995? I believed they showed the men being shot but I don't know...

You're right, I would never argue that those attacks are justified. I'm arguing that there are more complex reasons behind the conflict than just "they're evil". That's not the same thing as saying...

I'm guessing from your comments, you're Christian and take your religion very seriously. Thankfully, I'm not religious and don't see this conflict in the same black and white, good and evil,...

I agree with Pioner

If your brother, father or child has just been blown apart by a stray US missile, you're not going to be concerned about whether it was intentional or accidental, you're going...

I don't want to think about how many people might take that idea seriously.
