    Such weak minds, to many there’s no compromises if somebody happens to have a different religion, but if it affects themselves the rules are very malleable.

    Not talking specificly about Muslims, I see this with other religious fundamentalist as well.

      So they should starve? The religion itself says self harm is forbidden. If it comes between disobeying religion and self harm you should choose disobeying religion. For example if you are starving you are permitted to eat non halal food.

        Yes, absolutely.

        Maybe it would help some to realize that religion was invented by powerful to manipulate the masses.

        If those rules would truly come from God, they would definitively match all the laws and rules of the World created by the God.

        The bloodiest wars we had and still have were because of religions. Ironically in many cases those people supposedly worshipped the same God.

      I feel you misunderstood my comment. The context is that moslems have the rule not to eat before sunset during Ramadan which is difficult if the sun doesn’t set. All they judge is themselves. They feel guilty for not living up to their standards but finding a “cheat” if you will which isn’t fundamentalist at all, just normal practice

        Yeah they just didn’t grow up with it so they feel weird about it. If they grew up in Sweden they probably wouldn’t feel guilty.

        Perfectly exemplified: the hypocrisy and meaninglessness of religion.
