DEBATE What are your thoughts on Celebrities Defending Islam?

I know I"m gonna kick myself later, but please tell me- what is "SJW" (aside from being the initials of a High School girlfriend about 45 years ago)

 

'Social justice warrior'

 

You must have missed the part where I said "In the name of their God."

 

I've got my own opinions on the subject and so do others, so it does not matter to me what celebrities have to say. If they feel their status in society can spotlight an issue, more power to them. Really no different than a friend or neighbor coming over and expressing an opinion on anything. Their opinion, not mine. Waste of time to get all hatey on them for it.

 

True, that..

 

you are embarassing yourself......
point1- yes they are two different things. seperation of church allows you the freedom to practice your religion withoutstate interference and you are complaining about calling out criminality. you have no logic.
point2- no it wasn't...learn your history......

 

Islam is as peaceful as any other religion, It's just being used as an excuse to get us behind the fact we are smashing up their countries. IRA are supposedly Christian but it didn't stop them blowing London up. Not all terrorists are religious but all terrorists are cunts.

 

I have to admit this thread is a lot more sensible than I expected.

The moment I read the title I was expecting a flame war. So well done Phun for keeping it on topic and polite.
Dun dun dun ... for now.

 



all of those were justified by invoking God....No offense but you need to inform yourself on these subjects.

 

Please look up the Irgun and the king David hotel, the IRA circa 1900-2000, The saint Bartholomew day massacre, etc

There are over a billion muslims in the world and 98% go about their everyday without harming anyone. Extremists of any group or ideology shouldn't be tolerated and the groups as a whole shouldn't be blamed for their actions. Assholes are going to find an excuse to be assholes whether that is a religion or some smug asinine idea of liberalism or conservatism

 

EH the Spanish inquisition, Brevik from Norway to name two

 

I guess this isn't the new fappening thread..

 

Some of them do

 

Nothing in the history of mankind has taken more lives or spilled more blood than religion. Fuck religion.

 

I love trap threads.

 

Didn't the Catholic Church cover up rampant child abuse/molestation for decades?

 

If they follow Islam then fine if not their just sanctimonious assholes.

 

Actors work with all sorts of people from straight to gay to trans, to Muslims to atheists, and they collaborate, and create art.

There's a lot of great Muslim actors, and Arab actors, and Persian (Iranian) actors who are probably Muslim. There's a lot of producers who are Muslim.

So it's basically that actors know more Muslims than you do, and see them as just people, same as any other. If you've seen any movie about the Middle East, it's probably been filmed in Jordan or Morocco, so again, these actors have worked with Muslim crews who are perfectly normal, talented, and didn't blow themselves up.

 

Who actually listens to Celebs?
