Sometimes you need to mix PD with CA, all his was saying was he doesn't think we need to respect a religion and therefore offer an apology where someone that obviously can't be named due to censorship has a dubious past with girls of a certain age.

 

[SAguy]

My posts got deleted, which is ok - it was offside, but other forumites often say the posts about Islam are censored/deleted disproportionately... in my years of talking shít on this forum it's the first time my posts get deleted.

Seems the rumours are true.

 

[Jabulani22]

Didnt someone say something about "kid gloves" earlier ?
Yeah it went off topic but censorship is a slippery slope , obviously threats and such should get deleted .

he is allowed to feel however and have whatever opinion he want, but the comment is basically similar to what is wrong with what the cops did, because you have an unfavourable opinion of Islam its some how justifies anyone else treating them badly?

before you or any one goes ah but you Muslim think about it.
These Muslims were wrong no 2 ways about it and i agree the cops arresting them no argument from me.
Hell i even say the not taking off their boots thing make sense to me.
But Was there any need for the cop to scream his personal opinion of the religion?

Considering that the majority (perhaps all except the black guy who tried to weasel his way out of it) of the people in that video aren’t South African, he’s not even their President.

Probably not a need, but if the Muslims thought they could do whatever they want in the face of established rules, why can't the cops do the same too?

Only infractions I received on this forum were because of remarks about Muslims.

Now, as a counterpoint, look at the vile filth that is spewed forth regularly about Christians on this forum, and the double standard is plainly obvious.

The Muslims?
All of them?

Because not all muslims feel this way, so why insult an entire belief system because of select few idiots,
and to top it off record yourself doing it?

Did they walk into churches creaming you think Jesus is bigger than The president huh?

Police officer prays for pastor violating Covid-19 lockdown rules before arresting him

SAPS officer prays for pastor before arresting him.

or do they sit and ask permission?

However, the illegal gatherings of churches have still been occurring, from wedding services to church sermons, and police have been doing their best to ensure they locate such gatherings and disperse congregants immediately – often leading to the arrest of many.

This police officer, however, received praise from South Africans, with many admiring his decency and good character for asking permission from God before arresting the man of God, who was breaking the lockdown rules.

Double standards huh?
BTW
@pinball wizard is this what christians are taught - since plenty of churches still running so they must also all be taught not to obey the law of the land?

How would I know? People are people and will do whatever they want, regardless of what they know is right.

Also, it occurs to me that the "plenty of churches" you reference are not what anyone saved by Christ's sacrifice would consider Christian anyway.

CLearly you stated this?

No, I'm pointing out fundamental differences in theological ideology between what Christians believe and what was posted here as being what Muslims are taught.

SO based on what 1 group did it equate to what the entire religion believes and is taught?


so would the same logic not apply to christians?

You're fighting a losing battle mate. These generalisations are the norm on all Islam-related threads amongst others.

And when Muslims disagree with actions of other Muslims as posted they just get accused of lying. Can't change the narrow minds of bigots.

I'm not Muslim by the way.
