If you really feel that Muslims in the Middle East and Africa are abusing your label, then I suggest you get off your moralizing pedestal and go do something about it. Preach to your own flock of sheep and convince them to abandon violence.

you have no brain, muslim country does not mean that it is what islam teaches. Where does it say in Quran that they cant get the same education and safe from the neighbors or whatever you said. Man you need to lay off CNN and stop worshipping it, worship your God you blind sheep. Don't even talk to me i thought you had "some" knowledge that is why i debated with you. But now i realize that i am dumb for arguing with a completely lost sheep.

And don't lie to my face saying I didn't back up my claim that you had seriously overrepresented the prevalence of addiction to smoking, drinking, and having sex in America. Though again, I fail to see how those things would even approach the horrible nature of life in the Middle East: fear that if you dissent from the clerics you may be stoned by your neighbors for the "crime" of "apostasy," lacking the freedom to leave your own home alone in many cases if you're a woman, etc. It's disgusting.

You just said there was sex, alcohol, and tobacco in America, not even that it was abused, if you can abuse a consensual act (you can't to my way of thinking). But then you have the GALL to say Americans treat women worse than Muslims? Sharia law gives women half the testimonial power of a man in court. Women aren't allowed or safe from their neighbors out of the house without a man and burka in many Muslim countries. Women aren't given the same education as men in many of those same countries.

I never said "do evil," I said that some evils are bigger than others. You misread and oversimplify everything I say. You commit a No True Scotsman fallacy towards Islam. Who am I to tell Arab Muslims who support death for apostasy (most of them) that they aren't real Muslims? If you don't want them taking your label and running it through the mud, get your own house in order first. Abuse of drugs and women can be nearly as bad as fascism and terrorism, maybe, but you never even alleged that.

violence can be worse than drinking (not necessarily though) but the point is that they are both WRONG, and evil. Youre trying to tell me "dont do a big evil do a small evil?" you are clearly wrong. Forbid the evil to the very last little ounce and do good to the best of your ability. How do you expect God to guide you when you do half evil half good? God does not guide the wrong doers.

And I know that you believe someone when they say theyre a muslim... that is because you dont think and digest things truthfully. A person is a muslim if he submits to Allah fully and does good deeds and forbids the bad ones. period. That is what muslim means. Not my definition, islamic definition. You need to stop trying to prove to yourself that your grandparents were monkeys and start looking at things in the proper perspective, its the only way you will feel satisfied. I pray that you do.

you did not produce facts and you did not even back up your gibberish. violence and alcohol and adultery are all put in the same group. They all support each other and are all negative and evil. Do I really need to break it down like this... we are not on the same page that is why you are disagreeing with me.

Not to mention that I let this slide earlier but now I'm way to mad to: violence is not "just as bad" as sex, alcohol, etc. Violence is worse. Way worse. And if someone says they're a Muslim, I tend to believe them. You can't just redefine your religion to exclude the people who reach different conclusions from it than you do. I assure you the Qur'an has passages advocating intolerance of infidels, it's not socio-economic pressures making Arabs violently intolerant, it's Islam.

Wow, I presented facts and figures to back up my claims. All you do is repeat your anecdotal claims and offer ad hominem attacks.

not to mention how women have no respect whatsoever. They are public property... you hypocrites dare to say muslims treat women wrongly. Muslims are the only people who know how to treat a woman. All the suicides, teen addictions to drugs alcohol, prositution, disrespect to parents, leaving them at old age helpless, you guys are sick man. I bet you even are a stoner and alcoholic as we talk, this is how common this misguidance is.

you are confused, You cannot be against peace and at the same time be a muslim... makes no sense. Just because someone calls himself a muslim does not mean he is. Unlike all other religeons "islam" is a verb not a noun. The only way you can be a muslim is "peace from surrender to God". understand? Most of the arab world is corrupt I agree, but only because they do not follow islam. And yes it is "all there is". Man there are teachers at my school who are stoners, talk about rotten society...

Why dont you give a logic reason first before you start crying to everyone that they have to join your deathcult.

Do you not realize that you just excluded the majority of Muslims in the Arab world to redefine Islam as peace, but then you slandered America by redefining the dregs of its society as "all there is?" You are so far out of touch it's not even funny.

As Sam just said in this lecture, 77% of people in Turkey support violence against apostates or some such. 77%! How many people in America smoked in the past month or abuse alcohol or sex: 4% for weed, 25% for tobacco, 8% drunks, and about half had sex in the past week (married people have way more sex o.0). Hah, I even learned something! Research is more fun than telling people you're always right and shaking your head and shouting.

all there is is stoners and sex addicts and drunkards. It is the worst scum piece of land on earth. As soon as I have enough money I want to get out of here a.s.a.p. and live with those civilized down to earth muslims, Inshallah. Turn off CNN open the Holy Quran, and stop wasting your precious life. Death is right around the corner for each of us, use your life wisely.

Islam?! the religeon of peace fits those standards? man do you even know what Islam is? you have to stop worshipping CNN and start worshipping your creator! The one who made you a living breathing creature when you were nothing but a helpless little sperm. Islam is the religeon of peace. I will never disobey Allah (to my best of my abilities inshallah), do you see me terrorizing people? you blind sheep. In fact I am trying to leave north america just because there is no modest people here.

A cult is a way of life that perpetuates itself by getting the members to shun all nonmembers and punish those who leave so harshly nobody else will ever leave. Islam is definitely a cult by this standard.

do you even know what a cult is? islam is the worlds fastest growing way of life and biggest if not second biggest religeon. I am not going to argue with you anymore than this point because you are denying God's signs, so how can I weak human convince you. You just live your life the way you want to, but know that Allah is fully aware of your actions and secrets. I hope you come back to reality one day before its too late, inshallah.

Just Love this lecture. Such a brilliant idea.

@shababfilisteen oh, using reason can you tell me what god? of course not, you grew up in a cult so you are blind to it now. every cult member knows this about every cult besides their own.

@shababfilisteen at this point I can say that you never honestly studied evolution. looking up on creationist websites about evolution so that your bigotry makes sense to you is not an education about evolution. the "design" argument is the oldest and yet worst argument. doesn't pass in science. all you can do is use analogies which amount to absolutely nothing when considering science. use real examples if you dont want to be taken like a fool. umn...humans produce CO2.

@shababfilisteen I easily have to capability to imagine a god, just as I can imagine that there is a elephant behind me on the second floor of this small house. the only problem is I cant get myself to believe that its true because in both case its just possible. stop saying you learn about evolution, you dont, you keep on saying ignorant shit about evolution showing that you have no idea what the hell you are talking about. how our arms move was discovered 200 years ago by pascal.

@shababfilisteen bullshit bullshit bullshit. you made no real comments there. no I want actual proof of god, I cannot see gravity but I know is there. for what I know, the world explains itself without good much better than with god. the world is more logical and rational without god which is why I am a atheist.

that might have been a bad example but if you think about it humans cant achieve that. Our cars produce co2 which is bad for nature. So "nothing" is smarter than humans? this was a weak example but you get the point. Think about life more truthfully.
