re: #54 stabby

Christianity can be bad and Islam can be worse at the same time.

Look, get a Koran and a collection of hadiths, then read them. Then read the bible. Ask yourself what percent of the verses on the Islamic side promote hatred or oppression or just read like hate speech.

The (repeated numerous times in Bukhari) hadith calling for extermination of the Jews is so bad that I remember when a University hosting a database of Hadiths decided to delete the copies of that one as hate speech. And that collection used to be top of google …

So, if I go out and buy an English translation of the Torah and Talmud, then I’ll be qualified to deeply understand the whole of Judaism and pass judgement on it and all of it’s adherents, despite the fact that I don’t speak Hebrew and have zero training in rabbinic law, rabbinic literature, or Jewish philosophy, right?
