    A book isn't central leadership. People can interpret books however they want. That's why members of [insert any religion you want here] disagree on so many things. It's also why Protestantism has been much less oppressive than Catholicism.

    The fact is Islam and Christianity are very much alike. They are businesses that are trying to increase their wealth and power. They each have sects that are violent and some that are crazy. An outsider wonders why you hate each other so much. Each one starts off propagandizing children in religious schools and endeavors to keep them involved in religion their whole lives with masses and meetings and classes. I don't know what you are arguing about.

    The similarities are striking. The teachings are nearly identical.

    Hate speech cannot be banned. Freedom of religion has nothing to do with Muslims migrating to other nations.

    They're arguing over who has the better imaginary friend.

    And they know as an absolute fact that theirs is real. They wonder how the believers of the other 4000 + religions can be so stupid.

    It’s so hilarious that you think the dumb shit you come up with is so brilliant that it needs to be block quoted into a literal image file and input into your thread with your name under it like you’re Abraham Lincoln. Your ideas are stupid. You are not important. Stop acting like you’re somebody of importance whos quotes need to be archived and remembered. You are a literal moron.

    Mighty critical for a person who offered no argument nor stated a position.

    I know, but this forum is mainly for American politics.

    Besides, Western Civilization as a whole was in part founded on freedom of religion. Anyone who doesn't believe in that would probably do better to leave the Western world.

    Different people can interpret a book differently. Central leadership involves a leader of the group to tell you what the official rules and beliefs are. This is why different groups can disagree so strongly with each other even when being the same religion.

    OK Boomer. You haven't proven that a cult needs a central leader. Here, start with this:

    If you want to go by this definition, then every religion is a cult, which is something I won't fight you on.

    However, in everyday use, the term "cult" is used to describe religions like Scientology where there is a central leadership.

    So, go by my definition, and Islam is not a cult. Go by your definition, and Christianity is a cult too.

    OK, have it your way. In that case ban any Islamic organizations that are affiliated with the pro-Jihad Global Islamic Movement.
