Life's not easy when you're an ISIS soldier in northern Iraq. How are you supposed to spread Islam when you only have a limited amount of ammunition? Where can you find affordable sulfuric acid for teaching the insights of the Qur'an to women? How can you keep a straight face when you tell ignorant westerners Islam is a peaceful religion?

But most of all: Where can I find the Allahu Snackbar?

Answers to these questions and more, in this summer's hottest new blockbuster:

Saleel Sawarim: ISIS in Iraq (https://ia801509.us.archive.org/18/items/al_saleel_4/SaleelSawarim.mp4)

(The fun starts at 4:30. NSFW - Parental advisory: Contains graphic acts of Islam)

Coming soon to a mosque near you.

ISIS propaganda video documenting their campaign in Iraq, mostly the killing of Iraqi Security Forces, known/suspected collaborators, and members of the Shi'a government. They also added some footage of what are basically recruitment seminars for 'liberated sunnis'.

I remember the good old days where you did your mass murders and beheadings behind closed doors and knew it would be bad if others saw it. And these are the people we would have been supporting if we had gone to war with Syria as so many were pushing for.

Islam is a religion of peace, I'm offended that you would call it disturbing. I like the part where they teach those young men in the yellow car about Allah's love. They even stop and open the doors afterward to make sure they've fully experienced Allah's holiness.

(Holiness, get it? Because they are full of holes? :cool:)

Lets not act like one religion is any more violent than another because the other ones stopped mass murders a few centuries ago.

All religions are responsible for senseless violence. They're all equally created and corrupted by men.

Only path to world peace is to abolish ALL forms of religion around the world.

this sentence is somehow astoundingly incorrect both factually and theoretically

if one religion had stopped mass murders and another had not, that would be a fantastic reason to view the still-mass-murdering religion as "more violent"

and the implication that christianity hasn't been responsible for mass murder in a few centuries is also wrong

also: abolishing religion def not the path to world peace, mass murder still highly popular with secular governments

All religions are equally guilty of committing violence against those who are dfferent.

Jews, Christians, Catholics, Muslims...shit I bet some Buddhists and Hindus have also commit violence at some point.

What do all religions have in common? They've all been created by men, their scripture written by men.



IF god is real, I doubt he is wasting his time talking or associating with any jesus christs or Muhammads or moses trying to get his word to the people. I also doubt that humanity could even comprehend god's existence or his will. Simply put, any religion on earth are most likely made up by the types of people who, today, would be locked in mental institutions.


You guys can all choose to believe what you want, that is your right as a person. I just really am suprised that so many people over thousands of years still believe in this nonsense.

I guess its just like when your parents tell you whats right and wrong when you're a child, and you still carry their opinions with you well into adulthood before you start thinking for yourself.

The part in confused about is how you think that man has corrupted all forms of religion ,(which they have, not arguing on that) and yet somehow relying solely on science, which is mans observation of the world around him, would somehow be free from any form of the same type of corruption. If men made all religion, and men tell you what is and isn't true of science,aren't you in the same boat as any religious person? Youre still relying on men for your answers.

Science is just a tool we use to investigate the natural world.

http://http://physics.ucr.edu/~wudka/Physics7/Notes_www/node6.html

The scientific method is the best way yet discovered for winnowing the truth from lies and delusion. The simple version looks something like this:

1. Observe some aspect of the universe.
2. Invent a tentative description, called a hypothesis, that is consistent with what you have observed.
3. Use the hypothesis to make predictions.
4. Test those predictions by experiments or further observations and modify the hypothesis in the light of your results.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until there are no discrepancies between theory and experiment and/or observation.

When consistency is obtained the hypothesis becomes a theory and provides a coherent set of propositions which explain a class of phenomena. A theory is then a framework within which observations are explained and predictions are made.

From the same article.

A theory is accepted not based on the prestige or convincing powers of the proponent, but on the results obtained through observations and/or experiments which anyone can reproduce: the results obtained using the scientific method are repeatable. In fact, most experiments and observations are repeated many times (certain experiments are not repeated independently but are repeated as parts of other experiments). If the original claims are not verified the origin of such discrepancies is hunted down and exhaustively studied.

Doesn't answer the question. I'm not disputing the scientific method. I'm saying that scientists can be just as likely to have an agenda as anyone else. They're still human after all. The scientific method can be bypassed or pushed to the side in lieu of an agenda. Its certainly happened before.

Of course scientists have/will continue to be subject to the same faults and biases the rest of us have. But at least the medium they are using to further their own agenda has built in self correcting mechanisms to account for human nature. A big part of the scientific method is identifying flaws in the methodology that lead to researcher bias, even when they themselves are unaware it's taking place. Double blinding in medical trials for instance. Science is certainly not a perfect system but I am unaware of a better way to evaluate truth claims at this point in time.

An example of the point I believe you are trying to make would be Lysenkoism (Lysenkoism is used metaphorically to describe the manipulation or distortion of the scientific process as a way to reach a predetermined conclusion as dictated by an ideological bias, often related to social or political objectives) which was based on the faulty Lamarckian hypothesis known as the inheritance of acquired characteristics, which while popular, and supported by the soviet union, had the unfortunate side effect of being incorrect and caused the science of genetics in russia to stagnate and fall significantly behind the west continuing even to the modern era.

So I agree with you to the extent that science can be bastardized to further a personal or political objective (vaccines and autism, the tobacco industry and lung cancer research) the methodology and principles of science will eventually bare out the facts, since the object of hypothesis testing is to disprove your hypothesis, not support it.

On a small scale, occasionally, but if you think there's some global conspiracy level bullshit, it's just not possible by the very nature of publication and peer review. There's no secret initiation before becoming a scientist, and publications with bad hypotheses get retracted regularly when the data isn't reproducible.

Invariably, bad data that actually gets published is typically falsified because someone doesn't want to lose their funding, not some top lel conspiracy to defraud the public.

So there have only been small scale and inconsequential frauds that have happened within the scientific community? There hasn't ever been anything that was later proven a fraud that was of global importance?

Fundamentalist Christians sit around in bible study talking about Jesus. At their very worst they go to Africa and encourage Africans not to use condoms, or try to force schools to teach creationism.

At their worst, fundamentalist Muslims make videos like Saleel Sawarim, and they kill people. Instead of shit like creationism in schools, they try to inflict the entire system of sharia law on society. Cultural relativists will tell you sharia and all the different heavily Islam-influenced cultures of the world aren't inherently better or worse than any other religious code or culture.

Actually, once you get into Africa, there's a group called Boku Haram (maybe it's Boko Haram, can't remember at the moment) that are Christian extremists who are being all genocidal, killing off anyone of any other religion (and whitey) that gets in their path.

Boko Haram is muslim. You're thinking of the other trendy African warlord, Joseph Kony and the Lord's Resistance Army. They practice a synthesis of local paganism, Islam, and Christianity, thus they are hardly 'Christian' compared to ISIS, Al-Qaeda, Al-Nusra, etc which are very purely fundamentalist Islamic.

I've read statistics from multiple sources showing that there are a great deal more openly homosexual/trans people in the middle east than there are in Amurika. Not claiming its not more dangerous there obv, but for every killing of a homosexual in the middle east you have a homosexual committing suicide in the states.

Marxism is a secular movement, not a religious one. So in this instance where do you actually lay the blame? He ran a "church", but he based it all on Marxist ideals.

Who cares what it was "based on"? Christianity was supposedly based on peace, generosity and sacrifice, yet it's arguably the most corrupt and greedy regime on the planet.

Tied with Judaism. But that's only because it's over time vs. recent developments, respectively.

Ok. You said that people committed such atrocities because of there religious indoctrination. The problem is that the example you gave of Jim Jones and Jonestown is a bit of a conundrum. Even though Jones teachings were presented as religious in nature, his driving force for his ideals was quite obviously Marxism, which is not a religious concept, but a secular one. Therefore its hard to draw a hard line in your example that you cited that it was caused by religion. Since the fact remains that Jones himself was a Marxist, and it was the driving force behind his teachings. Does it make more sense to you now?

Ah no wonder you are trying to take my posts completely out of context. You don't even understand the context of my posts in the first place. Cults/Religion are one in the same, people at the top exploiting the ones below them via fear/indoctrination/lies. Are we clear on this? Ok good.

It doesn't matter what an individual's belief system is when you are talking about religion as an institution.

indoctrinated or not, suicide is a choice. having your head cut off isn't. that choice makes all the difference.

indoctrination isn't unique to religion. nazis were politically indoctrinated. that doesn't excuse nazi war crimes. we're still talking about adults with moral agency and autonomy

i understand that you're sympathetic to the oppression homosexuals face in america. cool. that's not an especially rare opinion these days. but don't jump the shark. being called a faggot and pushed against lockers sucks and pushes people into depression. it prompts suicides. so does bullying of non-homosexuals. that doesn't make it murder. bullying isn't comparable to being beaten to death for being an infidel

Sorry that I refuse to believe in some omniscient being in the sky who was invented by men to control less intelligent men :(

Kind of funny to me, in this day in age, that anyone under the age of 35 could really believe in god. I mean did you find out santa wasn't real at age 21 or something? Did the devil put dinosaurs here too?

I mean everyones entitled to their beliefs and such but its quite mind blowing how many people world wide believe in some stupid god or religion.

Sorry but I'll have to respectfully disagree. Tormenting a human to the point of wanting to end their own life because the suffering is so unbearable is certainly comparable to murder, the key is to know where to draw the line.

Obviously teasing someone once amounts to next to nothing, but when it happens daily, over a period of months it can be easily argued that is more traumatic than being stabbed. Over years, to the point where someone kills themself? It's not murder technically, but it's so close to that level of wrong that arguing the difference is mere semantics.

Not that bullying should ever be accepted but damn we're raising a generation of pussies. Know what I did to stop bullying against me? Threw one down the stairs at school. Fuck him. It stopped it and I didn't even get in trouble for it, but I'll tell you that's the last time anything ever happened. The next year I was a freshman in high school and made friends with seniors while the former bullies in my class were harassed. It's sort of like prison - you may think yourself a badass out in the world but in prison they'll use that ass as their toy.

Life's not easy when you're an ISIS soldier in northern Iraq. How are you supposed to spread Islam when you only have a limited amount of ammunition? Where can you find affordable sulfuric acid for teaching the insights of the Qur'an to women? How can you keep a straight face when you tell ignorant westerners Islam is a peaceful religion?

But most of all: Where can I find the Allahu Snackbar?

Answers to these questions and more, in this summer's hottest new blockbuster:

Saleel Sawarim: ISIS in Iraq (https://ia801509.us.archive.org/18/items/al_saleel_4/SaleelSawarim.mp4)

(The fun starts at 4:30. NSFW - Parental advisory: Contains graphic acts of Islam)

Coming soon to a mosque near you.

Dont worry, the CIA is making sure they have plenty of ammo.



Then once they become a problem too large for middle eastern governments to deal with, the super world police chic-fil-anal walmart death squads will have a reason to invade, which is what they wanted when they created ISIS.
