    Is religious satire ever unacceptable?

    How can other religions reconcile with Islam?

    Most of the people murdered by 'islamists' are muslim. I don't think reconciliation is required I think that this radical, insane, ideology for bufoons needs to be defeated as an ideology. Given the inherently vacuous nature of radical islamic ideology one would imagine that it should not be...

    What is Prayer ?

    Recitation of a shopping list does not count as prayer imho. I think that prayer can be a vehicle through which one can lose oneself. I have also wondered if prayer can be a manifestation of the universe talking to itself.

    Why do muslims hate democracy

    For the most part I think 'democracy' is a con job. In America you can vote for a right wing party or you can vote for a right wing party. Where's the democracy in that? In the EU you can vote for whatever you want but you'll keep voting until the politicians get the answer they want. It all...
