More honest than a Muslim whose prophet encouraged him to lie. And I’ve never murdered anyone, let alone a child, which makes me a better person than your prophet. I could also add that, unlike him, I don’t find little girls attractive let alone wish to marry and have sex with them. Tell me, where is the lie in what I posted?
For you to type this to me now is hilarious. I should count this as a lie, but in a separate pile. And what did you follow it up with? It’s like… hah… I’m starting to get that you’ve consciously decided upon blindness… but, damn
Only one? Here are a few
The claim to be more honest than an unspecified Companion of Muhammad (saw)
The claim to be better than Muhammad (saw)
The claim that Muhammad (saw) murdered anyone, let alone a child
She wasn’t a little girl - she was a young woman. Had Muhammad (saw) wished for more than one young wife, what do you think would have stopped him? The insinuation of multiple is itself a lie.
Five lies in so small of an area. You really are special.
(edit: wups - six!)
I’m sorry, he killed children. It’s not murder because they were Jewish children and it was done by someone who was believed to be a prophet. That makes it better. Doesn’t it?
She was married at six or seven and the false prophet consummated the marriage when she was nine or ten. I don’t know about your perverted tendencies but to normal people, ten is not a woman.
I should add that you were set up to defend the killing of children and the sexual abuse of children by your false prophet.
After thinking about the situation to at least some depth, I came to the same conclusion. Extremist religious beliefs are incompatible with 1st world western type countries and their values.
I think that a softening of religion will happen, not only in this region, but everywhere. I think access to information from around the world will lessen extremism over time. I also think generally if standard of living improves religion tends to decline (lots of examples of this happening elsewhere).
The issue is I think it will take a lot of time. Decades likely. Likely a long build up to a tipping point type of thing. The tipping point would likely be the point in which a government with secular values takes over. Possibly a country like Iran going back to a secular government could speed things up if it goes well.
I used to share your view, but after learning more about history and experiencing the secularization of society it became clear to me that extremist religious views are why we have western civilization in the first place.
That’s exactly what I’m getting at. Christianity is an extreme set of beliefs to hold on faith alone, but it is largely responsible for shaping the world that gives everyone nice things in life.
Are you really sorry, or are you just saying that?
It’s not murder because the killings were justified. That makes it better. Doesn’t it?
Not a false prophet, that’s lie lucky number 7
Sounds typical for a modern normie such as yourself. The idea for normal has changed a lot in the last 150 or so years.
In Delaware, the age of consent was 10 years until 1871 when it was lowered to 7 years. Under the 1871 law, the penalty for sex with a girl below the age of consent was death.[9]
In 1880, 37 states set the age of consent at 10 years, 10 states set an age of consent at 12 years, and Delaware had an age of consent of 7 years.[13][14][15]
No, you should not add such things.
I have not been set up to defend those things by God Almighty, Muhammad (saw), Jesus (as), myself, yourself, or Satan.
And there you go. The religion of peace comes with a huge asterisk. And who said they were justified? The murderer himself.
If I’m a Christian, I have to believe he’s a false prophet so there you go. He was a false prophet guided by Satan. And you can’t even call it islamophobia.
So we measure your false prophet against regular people? He is no better. He is actually worse.
What’s next? You’ll defend Muhammad the slave trader by saying slavery was legal in the US at one time?
I said they were justified. You just quoted me. SubhanAllah - you’re blind as a bat.
Not necessarily.
And that’s an interesting way to put it.
Are you Christian? I remember asking you before and not getting a yes.
Normie, Muhammad (saw) is better than you can imagine, you are just to blind to see it. There is no “we” in this as I am highlighting discrepancies in your vain attempts to measure him (saw). I measured your idea of normal against a relatively recent snapshot in Western history. You had said
You were judging against normal based on circa 2020’s standards, and there is nothing objective about that. This current period is a historical outlier in this regard. Whether a person is a girl or a woman depends on her qualities specifically, not the numerical value of her age.
Can you find a muslim country that is even 0.5% jewish? Or 20% non muslim?
Indonesia is the most culturally diverse muslim country and it’s right around 90% muslim.
No… because the concept of a Palestine didn’t exist til 1948 but at that point Palestinians refused statehood and started numerous wars over the ensuing decades which they lost. 1948 israeli arab war… Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Egypt Saudi Arabia, Lebannon and Yemen against Israel alone
Israel was outnumbered, outgunned… Israel won. The war was started against predominantly a bunch of holocaust survivors because the UN opted to divy the land that jews and arabs had previously been living on up at 50/50. This is what some people call the “nakba” and others refer to as the war of independence
During the Nakba both the IDF AND Arab armies ordered civillians to evacuate as impending war was poised to be destructive. Others left without even being ordered to leave.
Then in the 1970s Egypt, Syria, Jordan, Lebanon, Iraq, Algeria, Kuwait, and Sudan against Israel… Suprise attack. Israel won again
Yet still no Palestine existed… formally and informally. After the Kom Kippur war Israel gave up a substantial portion of it’s land… a significantly larger portion of land relative to all the current settlements combined… this was land Israel had seized from Egypt due to this war and Egypt had no rights to that land
A peace deal was brokered and it worked… Egypt stopped directly attacking Israel
The egyptian president who brokered the peace deal with Egypt was assassinated by Egyptian Islamic Jihad in 1981 for making peace with Israel.
At that point there was still no formal Palestine… Palestine was created in 1988 without a UN declaration… nothing
Just the PLO saying “ok we’ve tried war and couldn’t win… we won’t accept a deal from the Israelis so Palestine exists now because we say it does!”
Israel offered Yasser Arufat official statehood three times including one instance where an offer to remove more than 95% of the settlements was put on the table. Donald Trump also drafted a peace deal… Israel said yes every single time and Palestine said no
To this DAY there has never been a formal creation of a Palestine. The PLO was founded in the 1960s and " In 1988 the Palestine National Council meeting in Algiers proclaimed the establishment of the State of Palestine."
If you were to ask the Palestinian authority “when was Palestine founded” they’d likely answer “never… because Israel won’t give up Israel and all of it is Palestine”
Before 1948 the british mandate of Palestine didn’t encapsulate “Palestinians” … it was a diverse network of Jews, Christians and Muslims.
Before then it was a part of the Ottoman empire… I can keep going back and back but the truth is Palestine was never independently governed by what we today know as Palestinians until the informal creation of a Palestinian state in the late 80s
One could argue it started in the 1960s but even then the PLO adknowledged they weren’t governing a country.
This is my answer as to why those people weren’t Palestinian arabs. If you take a DNA test and look at your ethnic origins to see where you descend from… the country “Palestine” isn’t included.
I recognise a Palestinian state… although I think they should have been formed legitimately… I do wish they were unified under one DEMOCRATIC government and I wish they’d accept a proposition to create a clear definition of where the borders are
As things currently stand Israel can get away with building settlements and saying “there’s no clear definition of where the borders are”
As it currently stands Israel could have kept all of the territory it justifiably took during wars… but they gave it back during peace negotioations… in 2005 Israel gave Gaza to the Palestinians and bulldozed the homes of over ten thousand jews while doing so.
The justification for the settlements today is "Hamas operates out of the west bank as well as gaza and terrorism stemming from the west bank has been a huge issue. During the second intifada suicide bombings and indiscriminate shootings made the news daily’’
The armed settlements provide a buffer against this… and if it wasn’t such a huuuuuggggge problem even today the settlements wouldn’t be necessary. Part of the Oslo accords included the removal of the vast, vast, vast majoriry of settlements if the PLO denounced violence and terrorism themselves and cracked down of terrorism outside of the PLO
Initially Yasser Arufat (who is actually Egyptian… not Palestinians but most Palestinians will tell you otherwise) agreed to this… and even made some small, sporadic steps to uproot the terrorist infrastructure of Hamas but this was short lived and eventually it became apparent he wasn’t really interested in a two state solution. The second intifada unfolded while he was in power.
I do adknowledge many settlers are radicalised. I adknowledge settlers perpetuate acts of violence from time to time and I condemn is… I also condemn the existence of the settlements in cases where people have been thrown out of home… I condemn it because I know it’s wrong just as I believe the soldiers who raped that Palestinian detainee should be thrown in prison for a veeeerrrry long time.
Let me ask you… if I could prove Hamas raped scores of women and some men during Oct 7 would you condemn it? If I could prove the cruelty was unparallelled and unprecedented and the rationale of the attack was simply to start another war when things were actually starting to calm down would you condemn the attack?
Before Oct 7 a record number of Gazans had work permits where they came into Israel to earn a normal wage that would put them in the upper class of Gazans because employment prospects in Gaza are so poor… same was present in the west bank. Things were finally looking up… now this war that was started by Hamas has taken any shred of hope for peace and set it back by at least a decade
I should mention had the middle east won the war of independence OR the yom kippur war they wouldn’t have called it the Nakba in 1948… and there would have been no Palestine… the land would have been split up between Jordan, Egypt and Syria and Palestinians would have been Jordanian, Syrian or Egyptian.
Not entirely… sometimes the numerical value is just too low. There is not a ten year old girl on this planet… or even a twelve year old girl… who can ethically consent to having sex with a much older man given the gap in brain development/maturity
Having hit puberty doesn’t mean you are at an appropriate age to be impregnated. In my country there are laws to prevent sexually active young people from being charged with sexual assault. Romeo and Juliet law in my state allows for one aged 12+ to consent to having sex so long as the partner isn’t more than two years older or younger (and no one is below the age of twelve).
Age sixteen is the age you can legally have relations without barriers where I live. A grown man having sex with a sixteen year old girl is still considered a creep due to the gap in maturity.
Iran lowered the age of marriage to nine because Mohammed married his third wife Aisha bint Abu Bakr at the age of six and consumated the marriage when she was nine. The same legal age for marriage is fifteen for boys. Women can get married younger than nine with a court order. Statisticslly most marriages involving a nine year old include a husband that is more than 3x older than the girl… and even 15… there is a HUGE difference between nine and fifteen. Iran isn’t the only country where child marriages occur.
Yes… some girls can menstruate at nine… but from the perspective of BRAIN development you aren’t really an "adult’’ in terms of the capacity to make an informed decision until at LEAST sixteen
And preferably 18-21. The idea that the brain isn’t "adult’’ until the age of 25 is a bit of a myth
Although regions of the brain responsible for modulating impulse control, rage, feeling empathy etc don’t finish fully maturing until 25
But there isn’t a nine to twelve year woman on this planet who is biologically ready to consent to having sex with an 18 year old boy… the maturity gap is overwhelmingly skewed in favor of the older party being able to coerce the younger party. There isn’t a nine year old girl on the planet who should be having sex whether that be from a western or non western perspective.
Then take forced marriage into the equation and there is no choice. The only twelve year old girl who legitimately derives consensual pleasure from procreating with a much older guy is one that has been groomed or prematurely exposed to relations (raped or sexually assaulted)
The youngest documented woman to give birth was 5 years old… precocious puberty… I believe every documented woman to have given birth below the age of 13 was found to have been raped by an older man but I could be wrong.
Back in the day things were different because the average person died at 35-40… please correct me if I’m wring but Mohammed was FIFTY THREE when he consumated the marriage with Aisha. I don’t think that is ok ANYWHERE.
Even Nigerias age of consent is eleven… and that in itself is just so fucked up…
Having a period doesn’t mean you are ready to have sex even if you can be impregnated. Maternal mortality rates are higher for teenagers relative to women in their 20s. From a biological perspective mid 20s is the optimal time to give birth. And if you are nine… even if you’re going through puberty the maternal mortality rate c section or no c section is just absurdly high as ones skeletal structure is still reminiscent of a childs.
