So we all know about the Muslims, what they are up to, what they believe etc.

But what about the minorities of the Middle East, what about what is left of the Christian communities that existed well before the muslims embarked on a crusade to take over the entire middle east, north Africa and the rest of the world?

Today we shall look at the Christians of Egypt. Do they seem nice or not so nice? You be the judge.

We could make an atheist thread, but there is nothing to add.

Okay, I'll bite :lol:

What a load of absolute fucking horseshit.

LOL.

Firstly, Christianity was barely present before Islam. Yeah sure, it existed in tiny pockets around the Middle East, but it was a rarity. The majority of the populations in the Middle East before Islam were pagan and animist, and that is shown so blindingly obvious within the Quran if you'd have bothered to read it.

Secondly, the first conquests a thousand fucking years ago were lead by Roman Catholic church - Later to become famous for among other things, the near total genocide of every single tribe in parts of South America, executing scientists for heresy, saying that HIV is better than using condoms, saying that unbaptised childen will suffer eternally. You know, all the good stuff about religion.

Thirdly, yeah I agree, we all know what the Muslims are up to and what they believe. Do you know that Jesus is also a prophet within Islam? I can't remember the last time I heard about a Muslim religious figure raping a little boy in the name of Jesus though. Can you?

Who needs to objectively look at a religion when you can just watch brainwashed people sing a song whilst smiling? Hillsong represent!

TL;DR: Comparing religions that are part of the same belief system is moronic.

Bonus infoz: Polimedes describes himself in his 442 profile as a Psychologist, Historian, Archaeologist, Ufologist. Well, colour me surprised.

There was a great one that was around 100 pages until it was afro-fied and Girt went on his anti-sodomy crusade (that single handedly cost the footballing community 8 billion stickers)

Honestly if Polemides doesn't contribute anything football related on a football forum, why the fuck is he even here?

Nope, most Atheist do nothing but watch the world tear each other a new one, there are those that are vocal about it, like born again's, they can be nearly as annoying but they don't get violent about it.

Passive Atheist need to do nothing, they are content not having to believe, active ones, like Sam Harris like to spread the word about nothing.

Why would you attach that caveat specifically to Atheism? Putting "passive" in front of any label meets the exact same standard.

Passive Liberals need to do nothing.
Passive Muslims need to do nothing.
Passive homosexuals need to do nothing.
