A tragic story, 3 dead so far:

Vehicle driven into people on city street in Swedish capital

No word yet on the motive behind this cowardly attack.

Let us hope the Syria thing doesn't cause the media to not pay attention to this story.

I usually don't comment on non super hero or video game related things, but Jesus Vasonbee. Seriously, why the f*** would you say you are glad this happened? This is a F****** tragedy and innocent people died and you say you are glad it happened? What the hell is wrong with you? Those are real people.

Because they believe wacky shit that no one is allowed to criticize. mad

Surtur
I for one am not glad this happened, but I do hope it will be a wake up call about terrorism.

As far as I know nobody has been caught yet.

Surtur
Okay so the news just changed, someone has been arrested.

Man confesses to Swedish truck attack

"STOCKHOLM - Swedish police have arrested a man in north Stockholm and he has confessed to carrying out a deadly truck attack in the centre of the city on Friday, daily Aftonbladet said citing unnamed sources.

The man has some light injuries and said he was responsible for the attack, Aftonbladet said citing several unnamed sources.

Police declined to comment."

Update: 4 people are now dead and 15 injured.

4 dead in apparent Swedish terrorist attack

"The truck had been stolen while making a beer delivery to a tapas bar further up Drottninggatan, Spendrups Brewery spokesman Marten Lyth said. A masked person jumped into the cab, started the truck and drove away.

"We were standing by the traffic lights at Drottninggatan and then we heard some screaming and saw a truck coming," a witness who declined to be named told Reuters.

"Then it drove into a pillar at Ahlens City (department store) where the hood started burning. When it stopped we saw a man lying under the tyre. It was terrible to see," said the man, who saw the incident from his car.

Police said four people had died and 15 were injured. National news agency TT said those hurt included the delivery driver, who had tried to stop the hijack."

EDIT: Okay so I have just seen a different article that says the death toll is now 5. I am not sure if that is accurate or not.

Another thing about this attack is that because it happened in Sweden it is possible they are not going to reveal to people who specifically was behind this attack.

now that we've established that...why is it that you deserve this opportunity to better yourself, but they should be denied it? Because I am the investment of my parents. They've poured money into me in order to obtain market value so that I can pay them back with interest. The refugees often have no formal primary school education and are limited in what they can pursue. They are the investment of no one but the government, and I must say they're doing a rather poor job. Why train an unskilled 30 year old if you already have natives far up ahead?

So yeah, Sweden... Sucks. Hopefully if they do crack down on the refugees they've been taking in, they don't target the wrong people.

Surtur
It doesn't say, but the predictable response is probably going to be a bunch of hashtags like #NotAllMuslims and Sweden declares it a day of mourning and then that is it. Maybe some clips of people placing flowers at a memorial.

That process will be repeated after the next terrorist attack, and the next, and the next. Some folks will get butthurt over the fact I dared to even point this out. But of course that is just too damn bad.

So no matter how many of these attacks come, and how thick and fast they keep coming (yup, sex reference intended, because the giant dildo of Islam is f#cking the world) clearly the response is not an intelligent discussion. Not here anyway.

Fly just makes non-stop "leftists" remarks that mean nothing, even to partisan political discussion and vansonbee is glad it happened and wants more. That's truly f#cked up.

In this country when it comes to Islam? No. Just look at the "why does the middle east hate us" thread. The typical thing that happens happened there: people try to deflect from Islam by bringing up Christianity.

Lol wait, what? Christianity gets shit talked about it way way more than Islam. It's still somewhat taboo to call this shitty religion out, but Christianity is fair game.

Meanwhile the Christians aren't the ones currently committing a majority of terrorist attacks. They aren't mutilating the genitals of females, beheading them for leaving the house without a man, tossing gays off buildings, etc. So why are modern day Christians just as scary?

The most you could say is that, in the past, Christianity also did some horrible things. Which is fine for a discussion on religion in general, but has no real purpose in a discussion about modern day terror attacks by Islamic fundamentalists.

Emperordmb
Huge difference in viewing Jesus as the example for what a person should strive to be and doing the same with Muhammad.

Patient_Leech
Originally posted by Surtur

Because fundamentalist Christians actually believe that Jesus is coming back to Earth to take them up to heaven. That's has significant consequences (at least "potentially," which is what I said) because fundamentalist leaders (of which we have a LOT) would want to bring about the "end times," sort of a self-fulfilled prophecy. That combined with Islamic extremist could cook up a detrimental combination.

Keep in mind, I live in the South East where there are Christian churches every 100 yards. They are literally sprinkled everywhere. My dad is a fundy.

They have more sheer power. Look at their respective airforces and the casualties caused by Western forces by accident.

Of course, for that you'd need to categorically say that the US or Russia are fully christian, which isn't really the case. Christianity doesn't aim to become a state religion at their funtamentals unlike Islam does.

I agree. But the potential is there.

Wacky beliefs are still wacky beliefs. The consequences may be different, but that doesn't make one more true than the other. They're both bullshit and both have consequences.

So this is more not based on anything they have done recently, but what they might potentially do. Which is a valid, but I'm still more concerned about the religion that is actively engaging in a multitude of terror attacks, not to mention other atrocities.

Given the power they wield we should all be glad that Christianity at least went through some changes.

Emperordmb
LOL the notion that all religions are just as bad becuz there's the "potential" for terrorism based on "wacky beliefs" is an absurd argument. Any ideology can lead to extremist violence. After Islam the second greatest number of terror attacks can be attributed to communist extremists, and communism is not a religious ideology.

Obviously Islam extemists are a more urgent matter.

My only annoyance is that no one seems to want to acknowledge the danger of Christianity. We are so violently against Islam, but it's a little like the pot calling the kettle black. And I'll have you remember that the history of Christianity was steeped in violence, mayhem, and murder all because of "beliefs" assumed true. Yes we have more "moderates" now, but there are still large percentages of the population that is "sure" that Jesus is going to come back.

Surtur
Here is an interesting hypothetical: So we recently had the radical Islamists bombing a church. My question is if that had not happened and what actually did happen was that some Christians went and bombed a mosque and killed people....which of those stories would get more attention from the mainstream media?

I know what his point was, and my point was that potentially being scary doesn't compare with Islam, where it's more than the potential.

I literally even addressed what this was about a few posts up. So perhaps you need to keep up, yeah?

I could just as easily counter that some New Atheist who believes that the world would be better off without religion would rise to power and kill religious people, or send any religious person to some "reeducation camp," either of which would be disgusting acts of oppression with the purpose of stamping out any religious belief. Sure that might sound far-fetched, but so does the notion of modern Christianity progressing to the point of similar extremism to modern day Muslims.

Virtually any ideology can be taken to extremism, as proven by communism.

But no, I think the fact that Christianity and Islam overlap in many respects when it comes to extremism tells us that the problem is primarily cultural. It being telling that the Christians and Muslims in question come from the same countries.

There are many people in your country who probably truly believe this.



So it's not Islam that is toxic, but the culture of these people? But..isn't Islam sort of ingrained in their culture? And their politics? And pretty much every aspect of life?

It also needs to be pointed out that while no religion is perfect and Christianity certainly isn't..they are NOT all equally imperfect. Compare Jainism(the real religion of peace) to Islam, just to give one example. Who would you rather have spend the night in your home Beni? An Islamic extremist or an extremist who follows Jainism?

FYI: those examples cited from Christianity and in-places were they are devoutly religious also. The separation of church and state being itself a cultural issue, and a good starting point.

No they are not, but Christianity is also at the moment, the dominant religion of the first world (and developing countries) while Islam is predominant in third world countries. This is not a coincidence.

I'm struggling to see the relevance of this question. eek!

Even Hitler and Stalin whom are often referred to as atheists were not committing their crimes in the name of atheism. If you look at their actual ideologies they were more of a political religion even with some weird beliefs, for example that Germans were superior, that they came from space buried in ice or some shit. But regardless, Hitler was either Christian or was feigning religiosity to exploit the people.

Well it's an unlikely but potentially possible hypothetical like the notion that Christianity after having globally progressed for centuries is suddenly going to degenerate back into the dark ages mentality.

Given the trend of Christianity modernizing over the past several centuries how is the notion that Christianity is suddenly going to shift gears and degenerate into a similar level of terrorism a likely or plausible notion?

Oh I wasn't talking about atheism when I said that. I was just saying any ideology can be taken to extremism regardless of whether or not it's religiously rooted.

I really don't think it's possible to commit horrible atrocities in the name of atheism. Horrible atrocities throughout history have been done because of ignorance. Witch hunts and the Inquisition are big examples, the holocaust. They were founded on false beliefs. And since atheism really is very science minded and does a great job of stamping out beliefs in things without sufficient evidence it's extremely unlikely. Sure, there's other reasons to kill or hurt people than superstitious religions, but not really on a large scale.

Christianity wouldn't be shifting gears. It's still there. There are still plenty of fundamentalists and they are even running for president. Hell, you can't run for president and hope to win unless you claim some sort of religiosity. Ben Carson, Ted Cruz. Mike Pence, our VP is a fundamentalist Christian. And Trump is probably feigning religiosity for his political gain. He doesn't strike me as particularly sincere. And he's trying to roll back all sorts of environmental protection and climate change stuff. He's an ignoramus.

Not if you own up to all the dark ages our ancestors went through because of Christianity. Why do you think it was solely/primarily Christianity that was the cause of the Dark Ages? I'd argue that the collapse of the Roman Empire was a far more significant factor, as that brought instability and caused much knowledge to be lost, particularly knowledge that had been collected by previous civilizations like the Ancient Greeks. In fact, the idea that Christianity triggered the Dark Ages is pretty baseless. You can definitely argue that the rigidity of Church did, at times, hinder progress, but there were still many scientists and philosophers who were active during the Medieval times who were also deeply Christian. And regardless, I don't think it's very fair to blame modern day Christians for the action of the Catholic Church centuries ago (a Church which a good number of Christians don't actually recognize as legitimate today).


I would refer you to the post on Quora entitled "Did Christianity cause the Dark Ages?" . There's a good explanation there by a graduate in Medieval Literature.

So this piece of crap shouldn't even have been there.

Query: if Sweden made a law that stated anyone denied residency would be immediately deported, would people whine about it?

Bonus question: does the Swedish government have the right to withhold information from their own citizens about whether or not this attack had anything to do with Islam? I can't imagine a sane rational person who would say the answer is yes.

Take the case of Paul Jennings Hill.

Christianity fosters "extremists" also. Maybe not quite to the same magnitude that Islam does, but still the corruption of the mind causing the inability to see reason is the same.

Same way Christians refuse to accept the fact of biological evolution. They believe so firmly that they are unable or unwilling to see reason. It's like being blind to logic. Dangerous.

It's not baseless. It's quite confirmed. Why do you assert that it's pointless? It's not pointless at all to point out the outrageous and unfounded beliefs of a large portion of the population.

Well, it's one thing to point out beliefs you find outrageous, it's another to declare an 'emergency'. Because whatever you have to say about those beliefs, you can't deny that they're totally benign. If you don't think the world will end, then you have no reason to care.

No, because I used to be a fundamentalist Christian when I was younger and more ignorant. I grew up in the culture. I know it exists. And there are polls that confirm them to be widely held beliefs.

Not an "emergency." A "moral and intellectual emergency." Big difference. It's not benign. The evidence of which is in the fact that the mode of belief fosters murderers such as Paul Hill as I pointed out earlier. If you think it's benign then please supply some evidence for such an assertion as I have for the opposite stance.

Islam is a great problem. That's easy to see.
And so is Christianity. That's also easy to see.

They may not be equally dangerous, but still dangerous none-the-less. And the combination and clash of the two could prove worse than either one on their own.

Nobody is saying Christians never commit crimes. What is being said is it's quite silly to compare modern day Christians to Islam, when it comes to terror attacks and all around being shitty.

It might be politically correct to say all religions are equally shitty, but it's also 100% false.

It's not that we shouldn't talk about it, but until they begin murdering people at the rate Islamists do? I feel like it's silly to bring up Christians every time the utterly toxic religion that is Islam decides to blow some motherf*ckers up for their fake sky god.

Which always happens. Remember the Pulse nightclub shooting? Yeah, guess how long it took people here to bring up Christianity in a thread about that? Answer: not long. That case actually brought up double deflection possibilities. One route was the "But Christians do this" and the other route was ignoring the Islamic aspect, but focusing on the gun issues.

I dunno, seems like if a Christian murdered a bunch of folk and it seemed like he did it in the name of Christianity..seems like people wouldn't be trying to avoid discussing Christianity. This is why I made the thread about why Islam is so special, because there literally seems to be one set of rules for Islam and another set for..every other religion in existence. I don't like Christianity, but even I can see that in the USA it's far more acceptable to bash Christianity than it is Islam.

I agree the differences are important.

All I'm really pointing out is that it's sort of hypocritical of the US to appose Islam so much (although we don't even frame the conflict in the proper light, which should be against Islam, instead it's against "Terror"wink when we have our own crazy shit here at home. "Take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye." (so to speak)

We oppose it because some very naive people in this country want to just open up the borders for people from the middle east. Clinton wanted to bring in even more refugees.

We see these f*cks exploding themselves in Europe, running people down, all that shit and we do not want that here.

A dishonest tactic the liberals like to use is that nobody has been killed in this country by a terror attack done by anyone from the countries Trump wanted to ban. That is actually true, but do you know what is dishonest? They leave out the fact that over 70 people from those countries were arrested here whilst planning an attack. In other words: people have flat out come here from those countries intending to commit acts of terror, we luckily caught them in time.

What explanation will democrats give once that luck runs out?

Well my main point is that those beliefs, however misinformed, don't pose some sort of imminent danger that we should care about. They are also on the decline. Most of those don't even need to be debunked since the evidence is against them. Relentlessly attacking Christians may actually serve to harden those beliefs, if anything.

Well, the beliefs about the world ending imminently are no doubt illogical. But let's face it, the more illogical beliefs like that are held by a minority of Christians, and that minority is declining.

Perhaps I should have been clearer. I accept that those beliefs are not wholesale benign, but they are mostly benign. The evidence for that is simple, religiously motivated attacks by Christians seem to be very rare. That isn't to say they don't happen, though, of course.

Here is an interesting question: what would this country look like 10 years from now if 50% of the population were Muslims?

Would it be the same country? Would we still have the same freedoms? Would we even still value the same freedoms we value today?

I don't think the problems with modern Christianity and modern Islam can be fairly compared to a plank/speck.

I assume you mean a minority compared to the rest of the world? Because here in the States it is by far the majority. And the decline is still slow enough to pose a problem.

Keep in mind, I live in the "Bible Belt" so Christianity here is rampant. It's practically the law.

I'm assuming back to where they came from? But now we've come to the point where saying extremists should be deported is wrong.

It would be different if he said all asylum seekers should be turned back, but he specifically noted only the extremists. So this is absolute insanity. No wonder Sweden isn't willing to tell us if a Muslim was behind the recent attacks.
