I just had this image forwarded to me in an e-mail at work.

I'm not a very religious person. I'd consider myself Agnostic, if anything at all.

I think that ANY religion taken to an extreme is a very dangerous thing.

Seeing that picture stirred up a lot of different feelings in me though.

Hatred for those that did that & those who would & are planning to make new attacks........ & Disappointment in myself for being so easily swayed by an image of our national tragedy to make me agree with the statement on the truck for a moment.

Discuss......

well i think that guy was lost way before 9/11. and i know a few muslim people and they are the nicest kindest people i know.

Organized religion is retarded.

FocusDude · 03-08-2011, 07:11 PM

I got my beef with catholics that harbor pedophiles, the same way I have beef with mosques that hide and fund terrorism.

I got a bigger problem with our politically correct government that refuse to call it what it is, therefore feeding the hype.

I would not call organized religion retarded. It's values and morals have been lost on the majority of Americans.

I would call it we tall did. But religion is one topic I don't want to debate on here. Things will get nasty. People will get mad. Sluts will become virgins.

Why are you scared of debating religion?

What's the point? Most Christians haven't even read the Bible. They just begin to say "I believe in Jebus" blah blah "faith" blah blah "penis" blah. And I don't know anything about Islam to have an intelligent discussion about it.

Good call.

I think it's funny if that driver knew how similar the Islamic faith is to Christianity, he'd flip his lid.

Every religion has their extremists.

I think that banner is terribly offensive to both the Islamic community and the victims/family of the people who lost their lives on 9/11.

and I find it embarrassing some Americans are that closed minded.

Yes. It's all just a series of coincidences.

Interesting. What scientific proof do you have to support such a claim? Or, are you just speaking for the sake of speaking and your idea isn't rooted in any fact, but fiction?
