That seems to be directly at odds with their belief system. Religious respect and tolerance must go both ways and not just one way. I still see some religious fanatics criticizing other religions on Youtube and who were the ones who destroyed Buddhist statues in Afghanistan, Pakistan etc? I can name these people but I don't think the forum allows me to do that. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can name these people but I don't think the forum allows me to do that. I think you are agreeing with me but not sure? Of course religious fanatics, or as I called them, zealots, don’t have ANY tolerance for any other beliefs because they are brainwashed those are all wrong, evil, from the devil, from the infidels, etc ...so I am not sure to whom you refer when you say tolerance must go both ways?? Non religious people are generally tolerant of others. Religious people, less so, or not at all and they are very interested in controlling the behavior of strangers. Im not really sure we should RESPECT these fanatics, actually I believe the most we should do is feel sorry for them and then ignore them. They have no place in modern times. Therefore tolerance is the most I can gather up for them, but never true respect. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So satirical cartoons have to have the same response in their eyes as good Muslims.

Popular Post alien365 Posted October 17, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 17, 2020 As usual, the actions of the extreme Islamists ends up causing more damage to the religion and it's people. I understand Muslims get upset when they see images of Muhammad but Buddhists also get upset seeing Buddha being used for decoration. It's the response from the extreme elements that is worrying. I don't have any problem with the vast majority of Muslims. I have close Muslims friends who have integrated to western society. They have not been happy with any of the terrorist attacks either. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are not refugees, they are young males between the age of 13 to 45 even, body abled to carry attacks, they are marching onto Europe, this is a declaration of war. Europeans might be thinking we are in 2020, for the muslims however they still are living in 1408 (when we beat them and they had to turn back to Africa), to them nothing has changed at all, this is simply put; the "second round". 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spidermike007 Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 (edited) Though there are hundreds of millions of peace loving, kind hearted, hard working Muslims all over the world, there are also alot of incredibly ignorant souls, who are likely not religious at all, and claim otherwise, to behave in an extreme manner, and promote their hatred of humanity. And there are alot of people who consider themselves religious, but other than daily prayers, they do nothing at all, to demonstrate the tenets of their faith. All extremism should not, and cannot be tolerated by society. All societies. Except the despot ones like Saudi. France is doing a decent job in fighting this. Unfortunately, they have a large population of nut job extremists to contend with. As far as religious prohibitions go, they are fairly inane, most of them. Taking offense to such small perceived slights is not productive for anyone, and the level of thin skinned behavior is in itself intolerable.

Popular Post Opl Posted October 17, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 17, 2020 (edited) The teacher's course focused on Charlie Hebdo terror attack, freedom of expression etc. It is entirely up to the civic education program to make students reflect and dialogue on this fact, especially with the ongoing trial. The teacher's awkwardness was to have suggested that Muslim students go out if they felt offended. he did not have to do it, because there is no reason to isolate Muslim students, if this course is on the program, it is for all students. It was certainly an awkwardness, starting from a good intention, but ultimately discriminatory, since Muslim students were treated differently from others. Did he want to avoid an overflow by offering them to go out? we will probably never know. in France it is not up to a religion to say what is tolerable or not, according to its susceptibility What happened next, it was a raging student's parent who threw the teacher into public revenge through social networks, amplifying the rumor against this teacher, and we cannot deny that the student's father and those who tweeted against the teacher bear some responsibility for his death.
