They should read the Quran and not the Hadiths and they'll be a lot better off.

they should read neither one and be even better off

seriously though the only people i've ever known who say reading the quran improved their life were either brought up muslim or they went to prison

I've met a few that were scholars and it became more popular in the U.S. following 9/11 as people started to educate themselves on the religion. A good part of the bad bits come from the Hadiths (Qurans not perfect though but it's bounds and leaps better in the deplorable to morally sound ratio) and I don't think it was constructed reliably.

As for legitimate solutions I think if the live life like Mohammad mindset wasn't encouraged so that people would stop living out the more archaic elements of his life and take it with a grain of salt the way that (rational) Christians do with the Old Testament.

I realize that. I find it odd that so many so-called Christians would rather I go to hell than have an awkward conversation with me. I just don't particularly care. Have at your religion all you want, I don't care, whatever makes you happy, but as far as I'm concerned your religion can go **** itself because it's stupid and I don't wanna hear about it.

And that goes for all of you. Yes, Roxy, if you sat me down and explained to me exactly what your beliefs were, I will almost certainly think they are stupid. You may not be stupid, but in all likelihood I will find your belief in some guy who walked on water to be as stupid as Tom Cruise's belief in Xenu.

I'm "happy" that some of you freaks want me not to suffer eternal torment, but I just don't care about anything you have to say.

Would you like to reconstruct that sentence?

i'll be honest... i havent read much of the quran... every once in a while i get curious and hit up youtube... and all i hear is (paraphrasing):

" allah is the ****... all you people who dont believe in allah, **** you. allah is gonna kick your ass when this ****s over man. and even though you snicker at us and think we're fools for believing in allah, actually it's you who are the fools and allah will torture you for real son he cant wait."

except they say it all in a sing songy arab voice

edit -
for example

**Frownland** · 07-28-2015, 08:03 PM

You speak Arabic? I love the melodies on that recording, they improvise that stuff.

~~John Wilkes Booth~~ · 07-28-2015, 08:04 PM

see the edit... unless you want to say the translation is wrong... in which case... you speak arabic?

**Frownland** · 07-28-2015, 08:06 PM

Are you saying the video isn't in Arabic? Damn I'm bad at deciphering accents.

~~John Wilkes Booth~~ · 07-28-2015, 08:08 PM

i'm saying i'm counting on the fact that basically every english translation of the quran has the same basic message in regard to what happens if you don't join camp-allah
