You're the retard here. If you don't want to participate, good bye and good riddance.

Say, maybe it lacks the pictures. This is annoying, but I'll show you what I mean.
When I say they think everyone sucks or are idiots, I mean they try to impose their opinions instead of simply stating them in a polite manner.
Not as Shane said, that I think people who don't believe are idiots, everyone has an opinion, there's just a way of saying it without being offensive. Something some people here have a hard time doing.
Also, I agree this is somehwhat an intelligent discussion, but a "real" discussion in my opinion is where people are equals. For example, you don't bring a five year old to argue with an adult, just like you don't bring thedevilf to argue about Islam with you guys. Since his knowledge is full of holes and mistakes.

Again, I didn't say people who differ from me are idiots.
Also, to tell you the truth. My father is Muslim, my mother is Christian, so as a result I wasn't steered by my parents in one direction. They're not the most religious bunch i ever met. Yes, they believe in God. But nothing was beat into my brain, we rarely, and I don't recall us ever having a religious discussion what-so-ever. So, who's fault is it then?
You could say school. But alot of people see Religion as just another subject that you need to pass. That's how I saw it. I didn't "believe" in God on my own until a few years ago. When I disovered for myself, that there is a God. And there is what I consider proof. And that Islam's teachings are something I can accept as a human, because they sound right to me, as a human.
