If You Could Click Your Fingers.....

[Kardashev]

......and make it like Islam never existed would you?

[douglas9401]

Already done, in my head.

[naomi24]

Yes.

[Mozz71]

Can I click my fingers and have all organised religion disappear?

[Countrylover]

No

[Countrylover]

Same as  Mozz!

[naomi24]

That'll be a 'yes' then, mozz - along with all the other organised religions.

[ToraToraTora]

Yes + all religion.

[youngmafbog]

I too would be onboard with the 'ALL' religion.

But at present, if I had to pick one, Islam would be top of the list.

[Countrylover]

No answers the question which applies to only one religion.

[Mozz71]

For the record, I would with Islam alone too, if for nothing else than to see what alse we'd talk about on here?

[ToraToraTora]

10:46, Brexit, Boris, Gaza......plenty left mozz.

[Mozz71]

My actual reasoning with saying to get rid of all organised religion, is that if only Islam suddently disappeared, then something else would rise up and take it's place.

Don't think you know what you're talking about.  Are you just lumping all Muslims, no matter what country they come from, together?  

 

[Mozz71]

No islam would mean the Gaza problem is automatically solved. If all we had to talk about was Boris and Brexit, I'd probably walk away. Another benefit of Islam's disappearance 😁

[Mozz71]

Maggie, the people will remain, just not the religion.

[youngmafbog]

//Are you just lumping all Muslims, no matter what country they come from//

 

Your point being?  No doubt if a country had been mentioned (although why is beyond me) you would be screaming racist.

[naomi24]

A game of 'Spot the Difference' could be in order.

“How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property – either as a child, a wife, or a concubine – must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men. Thousands become the brave and loyal soldiers of the faith: all know how to die but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilisation of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilisation of ancient Rome.”

 

Winston Churchill, 1899

[ladybirder]

Yes.  Plus all the rest.

11:37, How wise of TGM.
