Just curious?
Ive studied this particular religion immensely, but i personally, believe in a "life of pie" sort of religion. A collaboration of different beliefs from across the world. Islam is a very interesting belief.
Anyone have anything to share?

okay
here is one random thing
i have been to a mosque before , they taught us about islam and what it's about and everything and then gave us some type of middle eastern type food . they gave us a copy of the Quran as we left.
it was interesting actually to learn about islam instead of not knowing much like most americans . could never hurt to learn about other religions or cultures i think .
that was what i had to share .
*teacher gives me an A for show & tell *

Islam is just as crazy as Christianity but with more sexism and violence.
Things I took from my Islam religion class: *The Quran states that it is acceptable to beat your wife/wives (there are literally verses in the Quran that say this is ok) *Muhammad started wars to kill those who wouldn't convert to Islam (Jihads, aka "holy wars") *Islamists believe the Quran is the literal word of god and the "true" language of god is Arabic

*The Quran states that it is acceptable to beat your wife/wives (there are literally verses in the Quran that say this is ok) --The Bible explicitly condones and regulates slavery and having sex with your slaves.
*Muhammad started wars to kill those who wouldn't convert to Islam (Jihads, aka "holy wars") --humm, the plagues of Egypt? God himself smiting the firstborn sons of a people with death as a punishhment for the beliefs and practices of some of their parents
*Islamists believe the Quran is the literal word of god and the "true" language of god is Arabic --Plenty of fundamentalist christians are all the same.
The Quran really isnt that bad compared to the Bible or the Torah, they are much and the same.
The further back in history you go the bigger dicks people were, science too was initially often utilized for mass murder
Only recently, abolition of slavery, giving women the right to vote, ending widespread lynching, stopping child labor and ending the practice of child soldiers, civil rights, gay emancipation, doing away with capital punishment, Arab Spring, only recently is there a social revolution that is delivering people from the utter barbarism of earlier generations.

I don't understand why anyone living outside of the Middle east would even think about becoming Muslim, after all the mayhem they have been causing over there with their jihad against Christians and the usa. I never seen a White muslim in my whole entire life.
And really, are African-Americans in the usa who convert to islam even real muslims? Its completly different so Im not sure.

No, but I'd sooner be a Muslim than a Christian! Glad I'm neither.

Religion in general is just a form of mass control for the populations of people unable or unaware that they can think for themselves.
It's used to justify evil acts even though it claims to be peaceful.

There's no such thing as a real Muslim, or a real Christian, or a true Scotsman.
I thought about joining Islam just so I could beat women, but then I realized that I'm not an idiot or a piece of shit.

I don't see why anyone would sign up to any religion. Generally kids are brain washed into a religion from birth, not given a choice and they grow up with that being the social norm for whichever group they associate with. It's even made difficult for them to go against the grain and try to consider a life outside of these religious rules.

The bible states you should stone gay people to death. Both religious documents are insanely flawed and can be used to justify any evil act.
I don't think any religion is better than another. They're all, for the most part, hyopcritical.

No because all religions are made by humans and wrong. If your going to pick a mainstream religion you should write the names on the ground cut a chickens head off and which ever religion the chicken stops moving on is the one to convert to. Hey who knows maybe your a prophet from muhammod destined to strap a bomb to yourself and kill a baby.

These were funny.
One thing that has always made me lol about islamic countries is that while they nearly all ban homosexuality, everyone I know who has visited those countries said that they are the gayest people they've ever met. I've known soldiers, christian bible scholars and secular humanists both conservative and liberal who have been to Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan etc and they unanimously and independently said this.
You'll notice with religious conservatives it's all about guilt and needing god to forgive them for the abortion or gay sex they had before they turned religious. Me thinks they doth protest too much.
