PaterAlf: I hope
Ander Breivik knows he's a muslim now.
flanner: you are really moron if you mean your ridiculous wannabe "argument" seriously. i waited which simpleton lower himself so low to take out such nonsense and compare solitary nutter like breivik with widely spread dangerous systemic defect like islam itself, indoctrinated in every muslim, when every muslim can start to take koran word for word.
congratulations, you've won
edit: if you are still not able to catch it - terrorism is activity of some group of morons with any collective interest
No, he has not. Humans excel in one thing above all other species and that is to differentiate and to categorize, we as a western culture had found a way through discussion and taking different viewpoints into account to come to a conclusion - democracy.
I do not know what happened in the last years but a political standpoint was measured on a scale, not absolutes. Now it is just you're a Nazi or you are left radical. There is no more rational discussion with a back and forth, without weighing, without convincing, without taking into account another viewpoint, there are only absolutes. We have lost the middle way. What has Hitler to do with what happened, what has Breivik to do wiith it.
Fact is, it has happened and no one died, but that doesn't matter, never in German history have a thousand men met up in one city with the aim to harass(by our standards) women in several groups of 10-30 people(you may correct me on that). And do not come with the Holocaust or another shit that happened like Stalin, Mao or the Khmer or whatever, try to differentiate and categorize. I am sick of HItler that, Hitler this. This is not about exterminating a religion, this is about problems that arise when different cultures meet each other.
The question is not if problems exist or not, the question is do we want to sacrifice part of our culture and moral values to accommodate a diametral culture heavily influenced by religion in the
hope that both will meet eventually on middle ground.
And in my opinion that is a tough bet, when you put religion against rationality. We ourselves needed several hundred years for that.
