Muslims (according to this thread) believe their prophet is above the law of the land, therefor they are above the law of the land if they follow his edicts.

Christians are fundamentally taught to obey the laws of the country they live in.

Neither group is perfect at carrying out instructions, but if that is (and it was) your argument, it's irrelevant to this topic.


The vast majority of Muslims in this country are obeying the laws of the land and not attending prayers. Mosques across the country were closed before the lockdown even started. The Jamiatul Ulama and UUCSA, both councils representing the majority of SA Muslims have informed their followers to abide by the governments rulings.

Yup as we all should be disgusted with the police actions and the 17's actions,if the guy has an agenda then don't give him more ammo like isie did by flat out lying about what was actually said .

Someone said earlier that Muslims get framed for lying etc , this doesn't help.
The real question is why we even have a thread for this. How many Muslims are there in SA and how many were involved in this?

But no, let's jump on it. Coz agenda.

It looked like you compared the deleted comments to the same as the police comments , they weren't the same kind of thing.

Then mods should lock or prune one , censoring cuts everyone.

But you can see who started the thread.. Yes it's the same guy that continues to search and hunt for anything negative he can find on Muslims, and then start a thread. He is inciting some sort of hatred between members on here. This forum never use to have this level of hate, until a few regulars continued to produce these sorts of threads.

I beg to differ, MyBB has always had the same level of hate for Christians in the Philosophical Forum. I don't visit it much.

How about you go back and read what i typed I said they similar - personal opinions that have no bearing on the situation in question
they allowed to feel and have whatever opinion you want , the cop has his the poster has his.
the poster justifies his belief on why they shouldn't apologize based on his opinion, the cop shouting what he shouted based on his opinion. Both have nothing to do with the situation we refering to hence they simialr.

Jeez, if it had been a synagogue, a church or a temple that was busted, there would be a similar thread about it.

The outrage if you want to call it that is about the 'religious' thinking it they somehow special and exempted from the rules - in this case it was the the muslim religious.

Alleged Blasphemy by cops is not similar to posting freely googlable facts , yes that poster was on about irrelevant facts but they were not similar and I have never seen what was deleted be referred to as blasphemy.

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?
I'm not sure why there is any debate beyond this.

Its pretty straight forward - the Mosque was in the wrong and the police acted accordingly, the comments were unnecessary though and the individual who made them should be disciplined.

The cops statement was not relevant as well, it had no bearing on the situation.

Also I did not once mention either being Blasphemous

Yeah but you know there's an element here who jump on anything Muslim.

Nova Scotia thread would have been a whole lot longer.

Look at it this way.
The posters opinion - freely available facts shaped it.
The cops opinion - speculation at best unless they have evidence of everyone there saying what he was alleging.
I said it's not blasphemy because you compare the posters comments to Alleged Blasphemy.

Edit neither were relevant and neither was your comparison.

Not facts either as its debatable and also why it's a PD type comment. not to mention i didn't see it i took it from 3rd person narrative


Like i said both are similar in that no bearing on the situation.
So not sure where you claim i lied

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.

A real christian wouldn't get infractions

The lie was claiming the comments posted off official sites backing Islamic beliefs/pro Islam was the same as the cops comment , patently false and misleading.
You Know people will jump at the chance to skewer that comment so either admit to it being false or pull a Trump and say it was sarcasm.

Platypus has a break , it's not similar to birds in many ways.

My statement was neither false nor misleading, and pretty any rational person can understand the gist of my statement.
