So, foolestroupe, do we acknowledge Christianity's past and ignore Islam's present? Or do we ignore Christianity's past and acknowledge Islam's present? Do we ignore both's past and present? Must we acknowledge every subculture's or religion's past (or even present) wrongs in order to be allowed to point out the obvious wrong in a religion's current state?

Islam and Christianity are not the same. Why would one feel the need to bring up the evil of Christianity's past when discussing Islam? To make Islamic terrorism seem less threatening? To say that we shouldn't respond to Islamic terrorism now because they are only doing what Christianity did 500-800 years ago? Are you only comfortable in condemning an act if you first acknowledge everyone who has ever committed the same act in the distant past?

BUT MOM, HE DID IT TOO!!!!!

From my understanding the new law will require intent.

If the posters intent is simply to stir up hatred towards muslims then yes it's mean, (s)he's a bigotted bas**** and in the future (s)he could be prosecuted.

However, we don't know his / her intent.

We're all used to free speach we need to be very careful about what we dissalow.

You have a choice, ignore it and it will go away or make a case against what is being said.

The same intrinsic teaching was evident in the teaching of Christianity for a few centuries too.....

" Fortunately this type of shit will soon be unlawful in the UK"

Well actually that isn't true, there is no way this would qualify.

Earlier this week there was a very interesting program on Aljazeera. The subject of this talk show was, "Is Islam causing these terror attacks, or are they political issues which are making Muslims behave in this way?" And this question was posed to the public so people had a chance to vote. And at the end of the program they gave the result of the polls. And the polls showed that 36 percent of the people that called in to vote said that the reason for the terror attacks was the teachings of Islam. Now I find these figures amazing, that the viewers of this program were willing to say there was something in the way Islam was being taught or something, as one of the participants in the program was saying, that is intrinsic in Islam itself...

I agree with alanabit - any similar list could be made to highlight the atrocities of members of any nation and religion in recent history (my own is not free from guilt); but hopefully most members of this site are not in your face racists as the type of "Guest" we could do without.
Fortunately this type of shit will soon be unlawful in the UK
