Quoting lady in red

 

 

It seems to me that ´there´ you consider everything rude.  If you don´t like mixing with us rude Brits/Americans/Europeans, nobody is forcing you.  Perhaps we should opt for 2-tier membership here - one for ´high-level´ people and one for the rest.

 

 Can I join the restgroup? lol lol I´m sure there are members who aren´t that easily upset.

Quoting baklava

 

 

 If the faith is so easy to destroy, then there wasnt any faith at all.

It must be such a weak and faulty full of errors religion that needs so many furious defenders.

 

 Yes its weak and faulty full of errors religion that about 1,525,532,460 - 1,559,728,143  person believe in, but sure you know better !

We have something called ´´respecting the religion´ its a muslim thing, thats why you dont find us make fun of our religion or other´s religions or prophets.

 Respecting the religion? You´re funny. Tell that to all Muslims who are calling names to non-Muslims (not to talk about physical violence).

Quoting thehandsom

 

 

Well it is better if they are your last words really..

Because you are getting more and more bitter and it  is not going well with the earlier promotions..

 

 

Yes as you said it yourself many times but you always coming back not resisting a chance to attack Ýslam or Muslims

And she is getting bitter ?!

All of you are getteing over her, attacking her for just being Muslim and practicing her religion and stating that she is loving, convencing about it !

A Christian, agnostic, and you

And all of you lecture us many, many time about so many things i didnt see you practice here...

Well, at least not with us muslims.

Nope..

It wont work Alameda.. Pls go back and read..

 

 

 Please excuse me, I am pretty busy and must admit I have not gone over each and every post in this thread with a fine tooth comb.  I do agree, pride and feeling superior are not the most elevated emotions in any circumstance, however I did not see that in Queent or Canli´s posts.  Couldyou point to any specific one,  or is it your opinion?

 

IMHO, one shoule feel privileged and grateful  to have been able to perform the Ramazan fast.  I think feeling prideful and superior would cancel much of the (sevap) benefits of fasting.

Rule 10 of Turkish Class : Discussion on politics or religion and religious matters is allowed as long as the topic does not get personal or agressive.  I guess there should be an additional sentence "unless you are a mod, an admin, a friend of a mod".

 

Has anyone EVER criticised Christmas here?  The fact that you stuff yourselves until you are sick with food and chocolates, give eachother ever increasingly expensive presents, get drunk and call yourselves Christian?  Is THAT healthy?  No.  So why are you so concerned that people are fasting?  Does it affect you?

 

I gave up arguing about religion some time ago - what is the point?  People naturally become very emotive and you will not change someone´s faith by arguing, you will merely alienate yourselves from them and deeply hurt their feelings.  If you have no religion or have opposing views that is a personal choice or decision.  This kind of talk only increases hate, xenophobia and fundamentalism.  On a more local level, you offend some really great TC members.

 

You might like to rush to be the first to call me a hypocrite - no problem, I´ve never pretended that I have tunnel vision and like to think that the older I get, the wiser I get

 You very well know I´m not talking exclusively about Muslims on TLC when mentioning respect but you stated that ´it was a Muslim thing´. Maybe you should ask some guys in Indonesia, Sudan or Nigeria why they kill people only, yes only!!, because they´re not a Muslim. That´s what I meant with violence but you seem to enjoy turning my words.

 Post of the year!!!  Absolutely brilliant!!!  Flowers

 

But I have to say, I do enjoy the intermingling of low-brow imbeciles and high-level intellectuals! 

 

I get some of my best laughs from the TC brain trust!!  I mean, where else can you find people so pretentious and pompous?  And where else can you find people who throw insults with every word but THINK they are so clever that mere nit-wits won´t understand!?!?  

 

Gosh, I dunno, I think I would REALLY miss that!!  <img src='/static/images/smileys//lol.gif' alt='lol'> (fast)

 Perhaps you should read your history books.  The Brits and the Dutch (among other "Christian" countries) were doing that LONG before....
