2016-11-23 at 5:04 PM UTC in The shoegaze / emo / dream pop threadAmerican Football released their second LP since 17 years! What do you guys think? I wasn't a big fan of the vocals, but instrumentally I adored it. Now the vocals have grown on me and I appreciate the record more. What do you guys think?

2016-11-23 at 5:02 PM UTC in The shoegaze / emo / dream pop threadYou're right! But if you were to ask me to name any shitty shoegaze bands, I wouldn't be able to tell you. And you're right, she's cute. How do you even have them? Did you seduce her?

Originally posted by Satyr All fine and dandy, but what is mentioned in the Quran and what (some!) Muslims do are not necessarily the same thing. The Quran might be one of the few religious texts that actually opposes violence to women and it doesn't mention anything about niqabs or burqa's.. Yet muslim women still wear them or are forced to wear them. Even the more moderate Muslims promote the covering up of hair. Extremist muslims still believe in strict sharia law, where women get their skulls bashed in for showing their hair. I have spoken with a Belgian who converted to Islam. He actually advocated killing his own sister because she's lesbian.
In short: I don't think the argument "Quran doesn't promote violence, therefore no Muslims are violent, therefore fear for Islam is ungrounded" doesn't hold water.
To be clear though, I don't think anyone should be afraid of Muslims or Islam. But the more radical sects? Whipe them off the face of the earth.
Hey Satyr, first off, good to have you back. Second, you're correct. The Qur'an does not tell how women (and men, for that matter) should be dressed; rather, it says that we are required to cover up. Regardless of gender. See, it's a common misconception. Same thing happens with honor killings and executing homosexuals. They are a cultural thing, not a religious thing. In fact, honor killings are un-Islamic, same thing applies to executing homosexuals. But this does not happen often, I think. But a lot of people use it to further their anti-Muslim agenda, even though it is incorrect. They pretend as if it's an every day kind of thing, when it is not. I think the argument jumps to conclusions. Yes, the Qur'an does not promote unwarrented violence, but that does not mean Muslims can't be violent. After all, we're just human beings, and we are prone to human emotions, such as anger. Violence means you act in on that emotion. I think the Belgian is wrong in wanting his lesbian sister dead. But a lot of people think that way, actually. They all have their opinions, and I have no problem with that as long as they don't actively harm somebody in a physical fashion. I don't care if somebody is anti-gay or pro-gay, or anti-trans or pro-trans. PS: did you know that trans people are actually accepted in Pakistan, a Muslim-majority country? Hell, if someone is trans, and has to choose between being male or female, they can check the third box which says "third gender." And it's been that way for years. Yet Americans get their panties in a bunch when transgenders want to enter the bathroom they wish to enter. Pakistanis have no problem with that. Yet we are the ones who are "backwards." Funny, right? -

2016-11-23 at 4:27 PM UTC in What was the last film you watched? How was it?Speaking of Ghost in the Shell, I am so stoked for it to be released. One of my favorite actors, Michael Pitt, plays the antagonist. He plays Kuze in the movie, and is a mixture of all the bad guys. In the trailer, you barely see anything of him. Just one, quick, dark shot, unfortunately. But his hair looks magnificent.

2016-11-23 at 3:57 PM UTC in Ethnic cleansing of EuropeIt won't happen. It's just paranoid white supremacists, or at least racists, that think something's up. There is no ulterior motive of any kind. The Syrians aren't here to harm you. They are there to hide after your country fucked their country up. I'm assuming you're American, by the way.

That's interesting. Also, you probably already know this, but the Crusades started after the pope lied to the people about their Christians brothers being slaughtered by Muslims. They were actually living in peace in Palestine. But the pope decided to fuck it up. I think it was because a king asked him to. I'm not entirely sure. -
2016-11-23 at 3:29 PM UTC in Hey Lanny, I really like this new forum software. I appreciate you! Also, did you listen to American Football's LP2?And if yes, what did you think of that? I thought it was instumentally great but the vocals reminded me too much of Owen, which I wasn't that big a fan of in the beginning, but then it grew on me.

Like I said, I have not read the Quran cover to cover. I did read the 14 verses leading up to my first quote, I have not gained any particular context, it seems to be a description of appropriate conduct during war?
No, I'm just saying people like to take things out of context and give it a false spin: making it seem as us Muslims are bloody savages out to kill anybody who does not believe. But that's basically it, yeah, the verses are there for a meaning. It's in the context of a war. Tons of people pretend like it's a verse that commands Muslims to kill anyone who isn't a Muslim, which is absolutely false. Even in war, there are still rules one must adhere to. One of these rules is not killing women, children, the elderly or the sick, or somebody of another faith who is in their place of worship. It's just a fair thing to do, when you have a contract with "the enemy" and "the enemy" breaches this contract, it is only logical and understandable that if attacked, one should be able to murder "the enemy." It is violence in response to violence. It's not unwarranted violence, what a lot of people seem to think.
