trudy you know i generalized,it was not about you..



I know, but you didn't seem to realise that I did the same. All right, I should have used the words 'not informed' together with ignorant instead of only the latter. But really, I think you can discuss a topic like this. And do realise that many of us here have read several sources, but reading teachings - which are meant for believers or converts - is maybe not the best source there is, that's always at least a little biased.

Alameda, if you call quoting historical facts as insulting then it will be impossible to find a common ground. I wonder what you would say if I actually quoted a text that describes the methods of torture that were used by Muslims, like you did it for Christians?!?!?! Don't the same rules apply to you?
This is not an islamic web site and you will have to learn what is meant as an insult and what is not. Getting two sides of the story does not mean that I will have to agree with everything you say, you also have to see my point of view.

do you think people are here the best source or even better? how many turks know their religion very well?sorry to say that but not many.most of them know the islam as their grandparents told them.thats why someone says something and the following sentence says its written in the Quran which is not true but they dont even know.believe me they already argue about it with each other and its not allowed to talk about it at many turkish sites cuz it quickly turns to an argument.this sad.

anyway i was not only talking about this post and im sorry if i offended you all cuz of my bad english,sometimes i cant tell what i mean in english,i may have caused you to misunderstand me.



You did not offend me and your English is very good, you know that.

Of course I know that people here (or where ever) are not always the best sources, but just sharing ideas, hearing other points of view is just good for making my own decisions.

I never understand the comment "what good does talking/discussing do"? It's rather like saying "what good does listening to music do?" or "what good does looking at nice paintings do"?

It is human nature to exchange ideas and debate. EVERYONE does it. Even "gossiping" is an exchange of ideas. You learn other people's opinions and agree or disagree. Anything that makes you think about a subject and consider it has surely GOT to be better than just ignoring it?

In that case Roswitha shouldn't have posted the initial article in the first place, but she did.

The problem is that you just cannot say anything that they don't like, even if you're talking about plain, cold history (that doesn't apply the other way round). Some people here just don't respect our rights to - for example - exchange information about history, because everything has to be on their terms. I feel disrespected and insulted!!!
