The Islamic debate

[Mia]

Quote by: SoylentGreen Well people are also claiming that it's a tiny minority of christians in america who believe in certain things. But fair enough it's your thread so we will stick to islamic, but I think it unfair that non islamic who share similar traits should be left out.

I understand your concern, but the point is there is a lot of debate right now specifically about Islam and Islamic nations so that's why I am focusing on that.

GHook93 WRONG - there are vast amounts of 3rd parties,

None of which stand a shit show in hell of getting elected in an FPP
system, its basically a two horse race regardless of how many enter.

POINT? We could easily say the same thing about the metric system!

What could you easily say, that a bushel is based on 4 pecks?

Some time ago, the Mars Climate Orbiter crashed into the surface of Mars. One reason cited was a discrepancy over the units used. The navigation software expected data in newton second; the company who built the orbiter provided data in pound-force seconds. Another, less expensive, disappointment occurs when people used to British pints order a pint in the USA, only to be served what they consider a short measure. Again the reason is confusion over units; this time due to the fact that American units, although bearing the same names as British Imperial units, often refer to very different measures.

Religious conviction, that is a laugh! The vast majority of the time throughout this country's history there were 2 white Christians running against each other.

Basically because nobody but white Christians stand a chance of getting elected.

Our society is based on separation of church and state. We do a better job them pretty much every country by keeping it that way.

And yet not one politician has the courage to say they are an atheist.
