Haider asks a question and three answers with FOUR MORE QUESTIONS ..lol..
Is Islam a religion of tolerance?
I think you are going to have to figure out what Islam you are referring to before you can answer that question. Because there have been stretches of time in Muslim history under Muslim rulers where tolerance was enjoyed.
1). By Islam do you mean Muslim history?
2). Do you mean the canonical text?
3). Do you mean Muslim rulers?
4). Are you referring to current fundamentalist trends?
well let me add more questions
Is Islam a religion of tolerance?
Is Islam a religion of peace?
Is Islam a religion of love?
Is Islam a religion of justice?
Is Islam a religion of war?
Is Islam a religion of songs and sonnets?
Is Islam a religion of Allah/God whatever?
What is Islam??
Now for such questions Haider provide some answers.,let me put his post as ponts
Point 1). Islam is an authoritarian religion that does not respect the individuals’ freedom of choice which is easily noticeable from its barbaric verdicts such as stoning the adulterous, pushing the homosexuals off a cliff and killing the apostates for daring to express a different viewpoint.
Question is ., Is that a fact of Islamic history??
Point 2). Then there is the plight of other religions’ followers in the Muslim State. Islam urges its followers to fight the infidels until they convert or agree to pay a tax known as "Jizya" per capita in total submission.Question is ., Is that a historical fact of Islam??
Point 3). The sacred texts in Islam also encourage blatant war and conquest of new territories to spread the religion of Muhammad, instead of using peaceful means to convey the message, relying only on a rational argumentative scheme; something that Islam, like any other religion for that matter, evidently lacks.How about that point? is that fact??
Point 4). It is simply a terrible insult to human values and a proof of unprecedented dementiaNowPoint 4... I CROSS OUT ., because islam is NOT a proof of unprecedented dementia and unless Haider defines human values, I would also question the statement of
"Islam is simply a terrible insult to human values"hello Haider welcome to Den and
I wish you and three Happy and prosperous new year 2017....
