[/quote] Right on, this is [i]exactly[/i] what happens!!! You would think the reverse would occur, since this is not a liberal but a conservative forum.

HisChildForever Posted November 25, 2009 Author Share Posted November 25, 2009 I should also add that half of Phatmass avoids the topic of Islam entirely, whereas the remaining half are divided between a) "This is what Islam is" and b) "No no, can't ever equate Islam with violence, must change topic!!111!!" Then we have the outlier; that is, the one member of Phatmass who will defend Islam to his grave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apotheoun Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 [quote name='HisChildForever' date='24 November 2009 - 01:39 PM' timestamp='1259095162' post='2008645'] [quote name='Lilllabettt' date='24 November 2009 - 10:57 AM' timestamp='1259085455' post='2008578'] 1. The text equates the Wahhabi sect and Salafism .. they are TOTALLY different things. Salafism is a movement among certain Muslim intellectuals that favored a return to pristine Islamic practice and rapprochement with the West. Totally different from Wahhabism.[/quote] What part of the text does this? In "the Wahhabi and Salafi influence" the [b]and[/b] is not an [b]or[/b]. In any event, your comment is irrelevant to the purpose of the article. The article is publicizing the atrocities that many Muslim women endure under Islam. [quote name='Lilllabettt' date='24 November 2009 - 10:57 AM' timestamp='1259085455' post='2008578'] 2. The article says the women look like monsters. THEY DO NOT LOOK LIKE MONSTERS. they look like survivors. That is beautiful. [/quote] This is all you have to say? [/quote] I see nothing in this post that would justify giving it a negative point.

Apotheoun Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 [quote name='Socrates' date='24 November 2009 - 04:54 PM' timestamp='1259106868' post='2008782'] [quote name='zunshynn' date='24 November 2009 - 04:15 PM' timestamp='1259104518' post='2008765'] She NEVER said that what the men did to these women was beautiful, and you know it. She said the women were beautiful, and they are. I don't think she was glossing over the horror of it at all. To insinuate that she is of the opinion that it's not a big deal is totally off base. [/quote] I know what she said. My point was that after reading the article and seeing the pictures, all she could do was nit-pick the article, with nary a word about the atrocity being discussed nor the culture which tolerates it. I don't think she approves of those brutal and cowardly acts, but her choice of what to comment on showed a curious set of priorities. It isn't so much what she said as what she [i]didn't[/i] say. Maybe I misread that post, but there seems to be a general pattern that when things are posted here regarding Islamic barbarism, people are quick to try to change the subject to criticizing something else other than Islamic society and practices (usually some more pc target). [/quote] This is another post that did not deserve a negative point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
