Of coarse their are. I never said their wasn't.

But their religion condones this type of behavior.

The bible condones a man can get away with rape as long as he pays her father 5 sheckles

Time-Immemorial
That's bullshit. No it doesn't.

Jesus McBurger
Read the old testament bud

Time-Immemorial
This was the old law, in which people had to be held accountable for their actions. You are taking it out of context. Just because it's in the bible doesn't make it law.

And Jesus ratified the old law. People are saved by grace.

The Koran condones murder without payment.thumb up

Islam is a peaceful religion built upon pillars of faith, charity and love. I guarantee you would not be saying these evil things against Allah's prophet Muhammad pbuh and his religion in my country! You'd be rightfully beaten by every good able bodied Muslim !

We have separation of church and state bc the country isn't made up of one belief system. Even in one of the most Christian nations in the world, to base policy off of a religion would alienate literally tens of millions of people (to say nothing of WHICH version of Christianity it should be). The founders may have been Christian, they may have been deists, and those beliefs may or may not resemble what Christians believe today. But it was written by a bunch of angry ex-Brits in a room. Let's remember that as well.

So I feel like the answer to OP's question is - or should be - irrelevant.

So, to me, neither is more Constitutional. It's not a religious document, and remains apart from supposedly divine texts of religions. Even if you think the Bible was written by - or at least inspired by - God and His Word, let's agree that the Constitution was written by people and remains a distinctly human document first and foremost. To try to apply religious sensibilities to a secular document (or even if there are tinges of religiosity in the document itself, it serves a diverse population in a secular government) is dangerous, imo.

Also, TI invoking Islamic States is a bit of a non-sequitar, and unfortunately reveals the agenda here. That discussion, though, is a much deeper one than "which is better right now?" because we're working from stereotypes oftentimes, impartial information other times, and economic and educational forces have as much or more to do with extremism than strictly religious forces. Basically, it's a much more nuanced beast than I'd expect we have the capacity for here.

It seems to me Islam is protected here and Christianity is bashed repeatidly.

Anyone know why?

Jesus McBurger
It's reverse out on the real world

Time-Immemorial
Why

Jesus McBurger
Because some terror groups kill in the name of Islam.... But just be cause a few groups kill in the name of religion does not make the whole religion violent. That's like saying because the KKK was a Christian group that makes all Christians are racist or let's not forget about the Oklahoma City bombing

Yes, we all know it is. As for why, I believe it's because Satan hates Christ but he knows that "Allah" is fake so it doesn't bother him to see people praising a God who doesn't actually exist. He probably laughs about it, as a matter of a fact. Whether people wanna admit it or not or believe in him or not his influence over this world is extremely strong and he is superbly cunning. Fortunately, he can't sway those of us who have unshakeable faith in Christ no matter what that loser does. Make no mistake, the real enemy of humanity is not ISIS, climate change (LOL), PC liberals, or even the ugly disgusting Hilldog but instead Satan himself.

I think Christianity is more tolerant of it then Islam. But that doesn't mean Christianity is that tolerant of the constitution overall. Look at how many people supported that piece of shit Kim Davis.

I also see Islam bashed here so how is it protected?

That isn't the only logic she defies. She has more then one kid and it wasn't from some in vitro fertilization or adoption. It means someone willingly had sex with her.

That makes my brain explode, it's kind of like trying to look upon the true form of Cthulhu.

She had a few divorces on her record too.

Thankfully though I haven't heard much about her until I just brought her up. Her 15 minutes has come and gone.

america is founded on religious pluralism. the very reason why the founding fathers found it necessary to include the freedom of religion in the constitution was because christians had a bad track record when it came to respecting religious pluralism & freedom of religion.

so basically, neither religion has a doctrine which is inherently pro-religious-pluralism

but in practice (thanks mostly to the reformation and the corrosion of religious influence in western culture and society) modern christianity has been less problematic for the ideal of religious pluralism than modern islam has.

but once again, it's nothing inherent to the religion that makes this so. it has more to do with the circumstances of history.

so in short, neither religion is inherently more in line with the american constitution.... and at their core both have doctrines which claim a monopoly on religious truth and lend themselves to intolerance for other religious beliefs.

No, the school officials did.

If this was a plan by the boy and his family to sue the city, then it is predicated on the school officials responding precisely the way the boy and his family predicted they would respond.

Hence, just because someone sets a trap, it does not mean you have to step in it.

The school officials could have responded in any number of different ways, yet they chose to respond in precisely the way that would play into this imaginary plot, and then they had the temerity to say they are not accountable for how they responded because they were tricked into revealing their true colors.

They were entrapped by a teenage boy and just could not help themselves.

"It was all a plot to sue the city," does not excuse their behavior, it adds a layer of stupidity on top of it.

Which is utterly ridiculous. As far as I am concerned the kid doesn't deserve any money. Are we supposed to believe this left him traumatized or something? If so then okay, a therapist doesn't cost 15 million.

If he got 15 million that money would come from...let me guess, the tax payers?

They might be asking for a ridiculously high amount in order to ensure they get *some* kind of settlement, but seriously they don't even deserve 10 grand let alone 15 million. Since where would the school get 15 million?

To me if he deserved any money that went down the tube once he or his family asked for 15 million. It shouldn't even be 15 thousand.

Apparently, you are unaware that Christians are committing genocide in Africa right now. They are holding people captive, killing children, and sexually enslaving women and girls. They are even beheading people and burning people alive. All in the name of Christianity. It is a conflict on the level of the civil war in Yemen or the battle with ISIS. More than 800,000 people have been displaced to date.

So why are those murders considered Christian when no where in the bible does it say to do that? They don't represent anything Christian.

You lack relevance to pursue any sort of argument of trying to compare what those back water people are doing to what is going on in America.
