Is anyone else fed up with Muslims complaining all the time?

Not that I am aware of.Al the atheits I know of don't give a rats ass about what the Pope says or thinks. I also havent seen a front page with any headline about athiests complaning about anything.I think our reaction to the religious people is one of bemusement rather than complaining. Why should we care about what some old nutter thinks of us? This is what I am essentially saying about Muslims, whay should they give a sh*t about what other people think about their religion? Maybe to you they do, but I have never heard an athiest complaining about what any religious leader says about them. In fact, we are more likely to laugh than complain.Brian.

Faith you have trouble understanding most things, yet you appear to be more of an expert on every subject here at EvC than the people who do understand.Brian.

No they didn't.They came to America so they could enforce their religious extreminsm upon everyone in their comunity.

As I said, all the atheists I know don't give a rats ass about what the pope says or thinks. I also haven't seen a front page headline about an atheist complaining about anything. I am in the UK.American atheists have the disadvantage of being American, which means there's a good chance they are a few cans short of a 6 pack anyway.Brian.

Last warning Faith. You know better. Keep it on topic or say goodnight.

Repeating to you my warning to Faith. Keep it on topic or say goodnight.Edited by AdminQuetzal, : No reason given.

Say what??? Okay, like I said atheists don't complain in the same way as we have seen with muslims in the mideast, but when the Pope says bad stuff about atheists, abortion, homosexuality, and science I know I have seen atheists get upset. I have even seen protests.I assume the muslims get upset for the same reason. There are a lot of OTHER people who do listen to that old guy in the dress and so what he says carries weight which can effect their way of life. Its kind of like them caring about what Bush says or does. Just because he isn't their president doesn't mean he can't adversely effect them. I could have sworn we've had plenty of threads at EvC with atheists complaining about what the Pope and many fundie leaders have been saying. But let's say that isn't true, maybe there's a difference between atheists in the UK v the US.I'm an atheist and can thoroughly admit that I have gotten upset about what these religious leaders have said, and know others than have as well. Its not like we took any of their statements seriously in the sense that they are making stating some objective truth that hurts us. Its that they are distorting facts and using pretty obnoxious arguments which their followers will use to dictate policy which effects us in very real ways.

I'll just have to take your word that no true scotsmen-who-are-atheists ever complain about what the pope says.At any rate, excuse me all over the place for being an American Atheist. In contrast, I guess everyone now understands what scotch atheists complain about.Heheheh.

Whoops, sorry. Posted my reply before seeing admin notice.

Okay, you are excused. Just be thankful you aren't an American Christian! What is a whisky atheist? Brian.

I thought that was robin rohan's domain.

Oh it is.The difference is, I make a joke out of it.Now if you were to use 'scotch' while chatting to Scots Muslim, would they be as easy going as I am?It is a common mistake, no big deal at all.Brian.

On the other hand, you Scots should consider it a fitting tribute to the true masters of the art when us yanks call the potation "scotch". After all, everyone knows that blended, canadian, and Irish are "no true whiskey".

I feel the same way Brian.Belivers listen to the imaginary voices in thier heads that can justify anything.It really ticks me off when the OT is held to justify the Qu'ran as I know they are both twisted.It's like you get stopped for speeding and you say, well others do it to. Never got off a ticket on that excuse.
