Difference is that most islamic sects haven't embraced modern morality and moved beyond their codified bronze age belief structure.

Christ, have them teach the extremist idiots that sabers and self sacrifice solves nothing.
From: D from BC on 30 Mar 2010 01:43 So the reason why you have faith in God is because you use faith for other things? Example. You have faith you're not going to die tomorrow or the roof is not going to cave in. Since you have faith in those things then it gives you the go ahead to have faith in God. In this case you should have faith in gremlins, lochness monsters, vampires and leprechauns too because those things are as improbable as you dieing tomorrow or your roof caving in. And the other reason why you have faith in God is because it feels right. I suppose that's like the gambler that feels every bet feels like the right bet yet keeps losing. I do wonder if the hijackers that flew into the world trade center had a good feeling. Did they feel good about what they were doing. Nevermind that it makes sense or not..it just feels good. So the reason why you believe in God is because it feels good and many other things require faith. I'll illustrate using emotion as a reason. The reason why my circuit is the best is because I feel good. Convinced that I have the best circuit? I'll illustrate using the concept that many things require faith which justifies the use of faith. The reason why my circuit is the best is because I have faith. Convinced I have the best circuit? -- D from BC British Columbia

I do credit Christians for coming up with many creative arguments that are like scrapings from the bottom of the barrel. -- D from BC British Columbia
