some rear end in a top hat posted:CAN MUSLIMS BE GOOD AMERICANS????? I really want to see every single copy of this post ever to be directly followed by a parody titled "Can Jews be good Germans?" with only the specific terms swapped out, just to show how vile this poo poo is. But nope, this is totally okay to express in most venues, just because they are the real bad guys. That is depressing as hell.

"Every Muslim government is either dictatorial or autocratic." Indonesia? Malaysia? That's just off the top of my head. But I'm sure "Islamic government" just means "Middle East" to whoever wrote this.

I'm sure much of that list is total bullshit, but specifically, what's this about Muslims not being allowed football? Never heard of Islam being anti-sports; if that's true, someone should tell Muhammad Ali and Kareem, and also isn't Qatar hosting the World Cup soon? Do they mean specifically American football? Seriously, though, are the shittier fundamentalist sects anti-football or was that just complete bullshit?

The ball used in the sport is sometimes colloquially referred to as "the pigskin" but it has been covered in cow leather for many years now, not pig skin. And of course Muslims can't stand to touch anything pig related, which is why these crazies always get all masturbatory about tall tales of American soldiers rubbing their bullets in bacon grease before they fire them.

The greatest thing about that is that according to Islamic beliefs the Muslim (who I'm assuming is a bystander because tons killed are) is clear for Paradise (unless he was a monster on the side) while the idiot hell fucker PMC with those bullets has a different fate because he was making a direct mockery of Islam while killing people, in other words:

Considering that the intent seems to be to taint the soul of your target in order to drat them to Hell, I'd say pretty goddamn racist. It doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me for reasons articulated by a better goon than me: Sir Rolo, a few pages back posted:It's weird that use of this product seemingly requires a lot of faith in Islamic beliefs, since in most cases the victims will have no idea that this was being used in the first place. Only Mohammed can really be sure. Then again, given the target demographic for this product, "making sense" is probably not on their list of priorities. Also, I noticed the use of a lovely low-res Warhammer 40,000 insignia on that site's front page. The fact that this site is using that symbol gives me the sinking feeling that these fucks found some Warhammer 40,000 material and thought, "Yeah, these guys have the right idea, we should do this here in the US."

I remember when some nuts were raising a fuss over major producers adding halal certification to the meat products they sold. They raised hell about what was basically a processing facility that was already kosher (lots of overlap between kosher and halal standards) having a muslim inspector come in and say "yep, all this stuff also meets halal requirements, you can put the stamp on your packaging now".

Autumncomet posted:There are a few halal McDonald's even! I don't think the halal McDonald's are in the States or Canada. I've never seen one, at least. The moon god thing is because of the crescent and star, the use of a lunar calendar (don't tell them Easter is calculated from lunar events; it might break them), and an old German scholar arbitrarily deciding that Allah was a modern version of the pre-Islamic divinity Hubal, who is not actually any kind of lunar divinity but was wedged in as part of a South Arabian trinity of the sun, moon, and stars. Hubal is generally actually thought to be a rain god. It's entirely stupid and basically made up.

Radish posted:Not 100% sure where Chick got it from but Maybe from Muslim holy days being aligned to a lunar calendar? Of course, by that reasoning, Christians worship a "sun god" whose birth is always the same date in the solar (Gregorian) calendar. Not that there aren't Christian holy days aligned to the lunar cycle (Easter is the first full moon after the March equinox).

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crescent#Pre-Islamic_and_Islamic_usesWikipedia posted:Though the crescent was originally a secular symbol of authority for Muslim rulers, it is now often used to symbolize the Islamic faith. However, the crescent was not a symbol used for Islam by Muhammad or any other early Muslim rulers, as the Islamic religion is, in fact, against appointing "holy symbols" (so that during the early centuries of Islam, Muslim authorities simply didn't want any geometric symbols to be used to symbolize Islam, in the way that the cross symbolizes Christianity, the menorah was a commonly occurring symbol of Judaism, etc.). This is why early Islamic coins were covered with Arabic writing, but contained no visual symbols. Also saying that Allah is a moon god is like saying that the Christian deity is Hispanic because his name is Jesus.

Autumncomet posted:Also, where did the "moon god" thing come from? Is it just because of the crescent and star? Do they think Buddhists worship wheels? The reasoning behind the claim is summed up pretty well here. Basically there was a book in the mid-90s written by a fervently anti-Islam pastor that claimed that Allah was originally an epithet for the pre-Islamic, supposedly-moon-god Hubal (although that deity has a good chance of not having been a lunar god either), and the star and crescent indicates that Allah in the Muslim faith is in fact that same deity, not the Abrahamic god (even though the star and crescent wasn't a symbol of Islam in particular until the 50s). Chick got hooked on that theory and wrote the tract that got quoted earlier, and it spread via Chick's tracts.
