Tolerant enough to support an art history professor who showed an image depicting Muhammad?
- morby 4y agoThe ones I know would be, yes. They’d also think it’s odd some people feel the existential need to do it.
- mruniverse 4y agoAs long as it's only thinking people odd. Not sure if the professor felt existential about it but she said: “I am showing you this image for a reason. And that is that there is this common thinking that Islam completely forbids, outright, any figurative depictions or any depictions of holy personages. While many Islamic cultures do strongly frown on this practice, I would like to remind you there is no one, monothetic Islamic culture,” https://hamlineoracle.com/10750/news/who-belongs/ https://hamlineoracle.com/10750/news/who-belongs/

Let's say that we were able to find one person of Christian faith who is intolerant, what country should Christians return to? Does this include a lack of religious beliefs? Where do we send anyone who fails to believe in God, much in the same way as one other person on the planet?
- NicoJuicy 4y agoI can show you some places :)
- DoctorOW 4y agoGo for it. Where do you feel we should deport people for the crime of being atheist?
- NicoJuicy 4y agoThere no crime for being an atheist or Muslim. Some cultures are just more violent ( eg. Look at fifa world cup and marocco people through Europe). Are you denying that they are more violent?
