Al-Qaeda Recruitment Video
-
I agree with your concern, but to be able to poke fun in a light hearted way at ones own religion is a sign of moderation and openmindedness.The smart ones can make the difference.Only a fundamentalist will be offended, and fundamantalists have no place in our society.Originally posted by Razor87th:While i agree with most of you that this vid may be created with the intention of pure humour and not as an insult , i personally felt somewhat concerned that the words "Praise Allah" was used in the video. It seems that those words could offend some of our moderate muslim friends who do not wish to see their religion linked with an organization like Al-Qaeda. Dont you agree? It could also send the wrong message to other young viewers who cannot or are not able to differentiate between moderate muslims and extremist muslims, and in effect, could give them the wrong impressions and opinions about the religion.
People, i dont mean to be the black sheep here, but do exercise some thoughts for others and how they might feel if you were to post such things. We're living in a multi-racial society. I think we should respect other religions and be tactful enough to not cause misunderstandings and conflicts by posting such things, no matter how trivial or how humorous they may seem to you.
Moderators, please take off the link. Thanks. -

A smart person would know better than to get himself in a position of disadvantage my friend. By disadvantage i mean in numbers. And i agree with you, being able to poke fun at one's own religion in a lighthearted manner IS a sign of openmindedness, however, you do not do it in an open forum.

look dude, there's realli not much of a need to take off the video...because it's realli stupid to complain about tis video and it's usage of words in it's religious context...after all, those terrorist scum are ALSO using those exact same words in their dae to dae lives...but i don see YOU complaining about tat... so in the interests of fairness if u wan the mods to take the video down then go persuade all those so-called "islamic" fighters not to use tat as wellOriginally posted by Razor87th:While i agree with most of you that this vid may be created with the intention of pure humour and not as an insult , i personally felt somewhat concerned that the words "Praise Allah" was used in the video.

I see. So its a tit for a tat then. They tarnish the good name of Islam for their own agendas, so that makes using the words on the video justified. Well in that case i have nothing to say other than the fact that you're no different from the terrorists who ridicule this religion too. Pity.Originally posted by Lance_han:look dude, there's realli not much of a need to take off the video...because it's realli stupid to complain about tis video and it's usage of words in it's religious context...after all, those terrorist scum are ALSO using those exact same words in their dae to dae lives...but i don see YOU complaining about tat... so in the interests of fairness if u wan the mods to take the video down then go persuade all those so-called "islamic" fighters not to use tat as well -

There is a difference with harmless jibes and malicious insults to a religion.Get with the nuances little one, don't let me throw the dictionary at ya.Originally posted by Razor87th:I see.

You would not even be able to post this in Afghanistan, why?Because the Taliban would skin you alive for using the internet, yet they might embalm and preserve a corpse of such a narrowminded skank as a martyr to their twisted cause.
I stand for a pluralistic society where religion exists not in a vacuum but as a part of our lives, and we are mature enough to make the distinction between malicious insults and good-natured jibing amongst the saner members of society.
There is no direct insult to Islam in the video, just insults directed at the beasts who have defiled this religion for their own goals.But the dense do not kno what contextual nuances are.
Cheers. -
i thought allah was 'God' in arabic? correct me if i am wrong.

Well there's no point arguing with simpletons if thats how you wish to misrepresent yourself as a "pluralistic society". Here's one for you and your lackeys.Originally posted by LazerLordz:There is a difference with harmless jibes and malicious insults to a religion.Get with the nuances little one, don't let me throw the dictionary at ya.

Contextual nuance. Enjoy.

Great. Someone took my link away. People just go around trying to be offended nowadays. It sickens me.
How about this? I am a free thinker. Me and my fellow free thinkers are offended that people are openly practising their religion, and we are offended that people say non believers are going to hell. How about we ban religion?
Oh and if i decide to worship lions tomorrow? Should we then ban Lionnoisy because i think his nick is offensive?
Thank god (not really. I dun think it exists.) that i am not in Singapore.
Stupid people....god (not really)...why are people so stupid. -
It wasn't even the Military Nuts' mods, but Jason himself who edited your post. Seems like he's siding with those trolls who accused you of posting porno links.Originally posted by lwflee:Great. Someone took my link away. People just go around trying to be offended nowadays. It sickens me.

We can see now who the real trolls of these forums are. Your link is taken away and you gripe about it like there's no tomorrow. Jason wouldnt have taken off the link if he didnt think that the points we brought up were valid. He did not side with us, he merely knows how to differentiate between stuff which is appropriate and inappropriate for these forums, showing compassion to accomodate everyone here.
Thanks for the quick act Jason, owe you one mate. We need more people like you around to keep these forums "clean".
People, the administrator of these forums himself has proven you wrong. Lets see if we can learn to be more tactful in the future.
As a mark of respect i have taken off the link the i posted above.
Nuff said. I rest my case. -
Sounds like a bootlicking post.Originally posted by Razor87th:Thanks for the quick act Jason, owe you one mate. We need more people like you around to keep these forums "clean". -

Well I think if Jason didn't take the link off, your response would be a whole lot different than this. If you don't know how to differentiate humor from insult, you shouldn't be here. You belong to the government. Now stop babysitting us from what we want to see. shooooo. I think that he just took it off to prevent anymore bandwidths being wasted from trolls such as thee (read: he took it off to shut you up, amen?)Originally posted by Razor87th:We can see now who the real trolls of these forums are.

I must agree with you. There is nothing else I could do.

Let's ignore the wit and nuance-challenged fool.He does not even know what nuance is..let alone trying to come out firing away with his white guns.Originally posted by palmerised:Well I think if Jason didn't take the link off, your response would be a whole lot different than this.
