Never assume that it is Radical terrists?
They do it in the name of Allah Akbar for crying out loud. What group of people gets into trucks and runs over parades of people? Who shoots up gay night-clubs?
Those damn Amish, you just got to keep a sharp eye on them. There out of control.
Terrorist sympathizers, and radical Islam deniers just amazes me.
I think many naturally gravitate to blaming ISIS for these incidents as soon as they happen, but that's more common in this current state of the world. It isn't always true and should never be the automatic ruling before all the facts are obtained.
I"m sorry but if I hear sucide bomber I automatically think muslim terrorist.
"there was an explosion at a public event"
the first question is usually: "was it a terrorist?", instead of what it should be, "what happened?".Hugh Freaking Dillon is currently out of the office, returning sometime in the fall0 -

The things that aren't atrocities determined by free will. Drought, famine, horrible disease, devastating natural disasters, human nature ... Seriously, I don't understand how anyone who actually believes in God doesn't hate his guts.
As I've said, I don't specifically believe in god, but a higher being, and I don't blame it for the shitty actions of humans. That's on us to figure out.
Anyway, I'm going to go eat some Jelly Bean and wait for the next volcano explosion
but the christian god I was taught about as a kid? NOPE.
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be careful. Strive to be happy. ~ Desiderata0 -

The sleeper cells in Europe and the US have been inspired by faith. In this most recent incident, an English citizen just blew up his neighbours- his fellow countrymen- because of his religious beliefs (the only thing separating him from his soft targets). If the bomber had been from Afghanistan or Iraq and had navigated his way into the country to attack the parliamentary building... I'd be there with you.
ISIS typically takes the credit for these sensational events, but ISIS has nothing to do with many of them other than share a common ideology and vision.

and around and around we go: yes,it is faith-based. what these fuckers believe is true islam.
let me say this: take the worst, most violent and terrible portions of the bible, you know, the ones they don't preach about in church because they aren't to be taken literally, not now anyway, and create a faction, let's call it CHRISIS, and have them perpetrating these atrocities across the globe.
Do you not think that peaceful, loving, modern Christians would be telling you that what CHRISIS is, is not true Christianity? And you'd have Christian haters out there calling them Christian terrorists. It would be the same damn thing. Cue the "no christian would ever do that" response.
Bomb the fuck out of Christian nations for decades, killing thousands and thousands of innocent civilians and calling it collateral damage and we'll see about that.Hugh Freaking Dillon is currently out of the office, returning sometime in the fall0 -

How about people figure out there is no omnipresent deity floating around somewhere, there is no afterlife, and learn to appreciate this life and how valuable it is for everyone getting an opportunity at it?

but the christian god I was taught about as a kid? NOPE.
again, I don't believe in the christian god. I find that too implausible. not to mention fucked up. But I can't say for sure if there was some type of energy out there that did it all, whether it was by design or some crazy natural occurence, or we're all living in some fucking simulated video game.
as you said, of course it makes no sense. none of it does to our puny brains. a friend of mine in elementary school dared me to ask his mom how god got there. So I did. She said "he's always been there". I followed up with "but he must have arrived at some point", and she literally said the exact same thing again; "he's always been there". My friend was laughing. I felt like i was talking to a non-thinking robot, just spewing out the answer it was programmed to give.
that was literally the beginning of my journey away from organized religion.Hugh Freaking Dillon is currently out of the office, returning sometime in the fall0 -
