He doesn't need to, because SS Junk isn't reading what Alex said, but instead reading what he wants to argue. -

when talking about current events, why do atheist try to shift the conversation to the past? when talking about Muslims(or any other religion) why do atheists shift the conversation towards Christianity and its fallacies? just an honest question, it always seems to be the standard operating procedure.ازدهار رأسه برعشيتComment

I don't think I do. Alex said christianity was evil, and SS Junk took it to mean that christians were evil.Originally posted by 46Tbird View Post
A majority of first world christians are peaceful, not because they are commanded to by their religion, but in spite of it. They pick and choose which parts of the bible to believe and which to throw out. I'm not completely against that because they tend to ignore the REALLY dumb shit like stoning unruly children and being unable to wear mixed fabrics. Personally, I think that the commandments of the Abrahamic god are an all or nothing proposition, judging by the way that they're presented in the bible.Comment

This what?Originally posted by DOHCTR View Post
Here is the sentence again for quick reference:
My question is the "... and often is." What exactly are you trying to say? I have now been told I am reading only what I want to, but have yet to read any clear explanation as to what was meant. Care to divulge or would you rather bow out and have others try and explain?Originally posted by DOHCTR View PostComment

I generally only see anyone bring up christianity's past when people attempt to use the actions of a minority of adherents to claim that the entire religion is that way.Originally posted by matts5.0 View Post
I've never seen anyone excuse their atrocities because of the similarities.
He attempted to do the same thing to me. Apparently, someone not defending something they didn't say means that what they did say is wrong.Originally posted by racrguy View PostScientists do not coddle ideas. They crash test them. They run them into a brick wall at 60 miles per hour and then examine the pieces.
If the idea is sound, the pieces will be that of the wall.Comment

Soooo... rather than get this moved to the subforum with no traffic, let's talk about how ISIS appears to be harvesting organs for cash.
ISIS Might Be Harvesting Organs To Finance Operations, Iraqi Envoy Tells UN

In a bid to finance its operations, the Islamic State group might be harvesting human organs, Iraq’s ambassador to the U.N. told the intergovernmental organization on Tuesday, and asked the Security Council to investigate the allegations.
In the past few weeks, authorities have discovered bodies with surgical incisions and missing kidneys or other organs in several shallow mass graves, leading many to believe that the extremist group might be harvesting these organs to fund its caliphate, Mohamed Alhakim, the Iraqi envoy to the U.N., reportedly said.
“We have bodies. Come and examine them,” The Associated Press (AP) quoted Alhakim as saying. “It is clear they are missing certain parts.”
The official also said that ISIS had executed several doctors in the northern Iraqi town of Mosul for refusing to harvest organs from its victims. Alhakim also accused ISIS of being guilty of “crimes of genocide” as it targets ethnic groups.
“These terrorist groups have desecrated all human values. They have committed the most heinous criminal terrorist acts against the Iraqi people whether Shi'ite, Sunni, Christians, Turkmen, Shabak or Yazidis,” Russia’s RT news agency quoted Alhakim as saying.
The U.N. envoy to Iraq, Nikolay Mladenov, also told the council that there are numerous reports to support the claim that ISIS is using organ harvesting as a way to finance its operations.
“It’s very clear that the tactics ISIS is using expand by the day… Almost daily terrorist attacks continue to deliberately target all Iraqis, most notably the Shi’ite community, as well as ethnic and religious minorities, across the country,” Mladenov told the council, adding that at least 790 people were killed in January during armed conflicts in Iraq.
In December, al-Monitor had reported that foreign doctors were harvesting organs for ISIS in Mosul. The report also claimed that there had been an “unusual movement” in medical facilities in Mosul, where “Arab and foreign surgeons were hired, but prohibited from mixing with local doctors.”Comment
