In 1948 there were less than 2 million Palestinians. Today there are more than 12 million in the world … At least 5 million in Palestine.
So no … They aren’t being wiped out. Had they not started another war with Oct 7 we wouldn’t have 22,000 dear Gazan civillians and another 20,000 dead fighters
Not actually true … But we can go with this notion. If the entire world HAD turned its back on Israel why haven’t they just flattened their enemies with no regard for human life at all… Because let me tell you what that would look like
In Southern Lebanon civillians love Hezbollah. So much so civillians stockpile weapons, bombs, munitions etc for Hezbollah.
Israel could FLATTEN southern Lebanon in a second using airstrikes, machine guns, tanks and bombs.
They could bomb all of Gaza… All at once, and continually do so every day for a solid month until now one is left without using nuclear bombs
The reason Israel hasn’t gone nuclear is because going nuclear would signal WWII as Iran might get involved… Even if Israel were on the cusp of defeat it’s unlikely they’d use nuclear bombs.
Really … Thats your counterargument? “I haven’t seen or heard of this but they’re doing it!”
They’ve raided so many villages, yet not a single village wide massacre has occured
Hamas on the other hand has opened fire during these raids, endangering all surrounding civillians as by firing back the IDF risks killing civillians.
Do you see the IDF opening fire in densely populated Israeli areas?
How about gay Christians? Do they disprove Christian heaven? I don’t think so
I don’t know. I don’t think so
I don’t know. I have seen women ask if they have to wear hijab in heaven, or if people can have their dogs. I’ve seen people logic their way into an answer that I didn’t agree with.
It’s not that I disagreed or would argue the exact opposite
In heaven everyone gets perfectly along with everyone else that’s admitted. For many people, that would require massive change from where they are at right now.
The events of Judgement Day result in massive changes - not only do people change location - they change in character as well
It might be that a woman on Earth who would want 72 virgin men in heaven can enter heaven eventually, but that she would stop caring about that before actually arriving
Just some thoughts, and Allah knows best
That is what I believe to be the case in general, but I do not know if there are any exceptions
It does not state anywhere in the New Testament, and probably the Old as well, that gays are banned from Heaven.
Jesus never said those who have sinned are banned from Heaven. Christianity is a religion based on forgiveness whereas Islam is based on vengeance. We see how this plays out in the real world. The Catholic Church is against the death penalty, Islam however, is very head choppy, stoning and hanging.
We see this when a Christian forgives someone who did him wrong, as he chooses to do on Earth what he believes God will do in the afterlife. A Muslim exacts vengeance on Earth as he believes he is merely doing on Earth what his false god will do in the afterlife.
Jesus fucking christ! I’m still trying to figure out WHAT the fuck this is? And yes, he worked (I will not use they/them as it identifies with, which is just made up fuckery) in the Department of Energy in the Nuclear division. This train wreck should be printed and distributed all over every college campus, saying THIS is why DEI hiring is bad for the country! I’m gonna go out on a limb and say that there were probably thousands of more qualified candidates for the position he held, yet with the agenda of the Biden administration this is the shit America got.
The luggage theft charges were just icing on the cake for this clown.
This could be in one of those contests where people try and write a witty caption. Man, I can only imagine some of the ones that this would inspire…any takers?
Agreed, and I am particularly always amused at the blatant hypocrisy of the liberal left…“we are the party of openness and inclusiveness. We are so understanding and kind and compassionate. We value honest and loving dialogue…etc etc etc” Yet if you do not agree with every single value, idea, social construct, etc that they espouse, then you are immediately labeled a racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, ignorant, redneck, you know all the rest.
I find it interesting when a long standing democrat disagrees with the general party on an issue(s) and they immediately get black balled by the liberals, and then that once lib suddenly opens their eyes/brain up and becomes a conservative. E.G. Tulsi Gabbard[HOT too], Leo 2.0 Terrell, etc. A person has to very literally be in lock step on every liberal issue and if you are not, you very quickly go from being loved and welcomed to “get the fuck out you ignorant racist!”
Just take a good look at all of the “women and/or men” in the audience of a Harris campaign event. The women are all fat/ugly and you KNOW they haven’t had a man trying to bang them in the last 30 years, if even ever. And the men, jesus, I shake my head the most when I see these effeminate white males at those things, they look like the poster child for the guy who was either always picked last or never picked for sports, they clap their either super fat or super skinny arms with hands you know are small and smooth as a baby’s ass. These are men who couldn’t perform the simplest home repair on their own, who would never know how to hunt for their own food/fish/trap, much less clean a fish, etc. and ewww, they hate guns, those things should be banned! Yet those same wimps are the ones whose houses get broken into and instead of blowing the perps away with their home defense guns, they and their woke families get tied up and robbed.
These are the men who are constantly nagged by their fat, angry at the world ugly wives yet think they are so much more intelligent than conservatives because they went to college and aren’t “rednecks”. They always have the “right” position on every issue, and anyone who doesn’t vigorously agree with them is just ignorant and uneducated in their eyes.
Still, this definition requires crime with specific intent
If the events of the Hadith were to occur during a just war, it wouldn’t be pointing to a crime.
The miracles described don’t indicate intent to destroy a national, ethnic, racial or religious group, in whole or in part any more than any battle ever against any army made of a national, ethnic, racial or religious group
As far as intent goes, the Jewish army in that battle fit the definition you’ve posted just as well as the Muslim army would
I didn’t think it did - that is not what I meant
These questions are sarcastic and rhetorical - don’t even bother
If any of them do make it to heaven, will they have lovers? Lovers of the same gender, or different? Why? Is that fair? How can God be not fair? Does Christianity know better than God?
The first time God Almighty set it up was one man and one woman, and we don’t have reason to think either of them were gay
If God does it differently ever again, does that mean that God contradicted himself? Why not? Should I just take your word for it given all the duplicity you’ve shown of late?
blah blah blah
If you don’t jump through all the hoops I set in front of you, every single time, I might come to a fair and accurate judgement about your religion that you wouldn’t like very much!!
No, Islam is based neither on vengeance nor forgiveness but a relationship with God Almighty. Vengeance and forgiveness have their due place.
Forgiveness and justice are emphasized. Under the correct circumstances vengeance or forgiveness could be allowed and one might be superior to the other.
Romans 12:19, “Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.”
And right there is why Islam is a religion of violence and a death cult. Christians don’t have the luxury of having a choice. And surprise, Christians aren’t running around stabbing people in the name of God.
You are the one that brought up vengeance and forgiveness
Luxury, Christians, you are funny. So are you a Christian, or not?
You’ve essentially written that Christians cannot have the luxury of having a government
And surprise Christians instead go flying around and blowing up people in the name of Jesus
I understand it to mean a difference in how someone labels their actions. In all instances these are translations
Perhaps it’s saying to be forgiving as much as you are able, to the extent the situation surpasses your ability, then-
Label your actions as wrath with humility.
To take vengeance in a cold calm calculated manner is perhaps like idolatry - punishable by God Almighty
Sound about right? How do you understand it?
In the Quran I am aware of a word that is used that shares the same root with justice, which is used in an instance of matching the death penalty with murder.
It’s the same word that refers to eye for eye, tooth for tooth, nail for nail
As I understand the Bible, the Church is spreading the Kingdom of God (a spiritual kingdom.)
As I understand some Christians and all of Islam, they believe that they are bringing in the Kingdom of Heaven (a physical kingdom that must be taken by force.)
At the second coming of Jesus He will be bringing in the Kingdom of Heaven by taking it by force. He is coming as King in His second coming
I think children can be had in heaven, and I think they can have children too, which would imply marriages are to occur in heaven
But that’s a little more thinking (brain) than belief (heart)
I haven’t gone deep into the Islamic descriptions myself of heaven from Hadith in any stage of my life. I’ve picked up on stuff here and there from Quran and other humans
