I love how adults make rules for children who than grow up to either hate or feel inferior

Quoting qdemir:


Iran is NOT an Islamic country, and a model to be emulated or refered to ,even though it defines or calls itself in that way.

Just ask What Islam says about the issue instead of refering to Iran.



What does it say, according to you, Qdemir? I can't read the Qu'ran in Arab and my Dutch version is probably not okay / complete (at least that's what I was told before by someone).

Quoting susie k:

WOW! I imagine that this is strictly practised only in Iran, because I have Muslims under me at work.... Also I was not aware that this was in the Qur'an. Does anyone have any further information or examples on this comment?



We were not talking about muslims in this country susie-k.

Quoting qdemir:

Some certain people on here are posing as if they have snow-white posts records, when some other people have used similar words. May be, they just deem themselves entitled to use such words.



What "people" are you referring to? And what words? I would appreciate your explanation as I find your post hard to understand.

Forgive me if I am wrong...

But I believe the point had nothing to do with what the Quran states. The point is that there are MANY countries not just Islamic ones that display a HIGH level of religious intolerance. The major issue is that many European and Western countries are making great strides to display some level of religious tolerance. (I'm not saying there aren't inequalities or prejudices) However, it is not always possible to accommodate every religion ALL the time. I think that was the point.

Clearly I have touched upon a "raw nerve" here. I am merely saying that those muslims living in USA and UK and who complain that they are being discriminated against, should remember that we are discriminated against too!

I have nothing else to say on this as I it is such a sensitive subject which makes rational discussion impossible.
