@academic_la For me it was
1- The decomposing NICU babies.
2- blockading baby vaccines/formula
3- sniper bullets in children’s skulls xrays
4- reports of organ shot clusters on different days in children
@jyb269@academic_la We literally have video evidence of said babies. Israeli forces ordered the evacuation to “clear the hospital”. 2 weeks later Palestinians were allowed to return and found the babies left to decompose by the Israelis… video is linked in this article

@Alonso_GD@_ZachFoster People aren’t ready for the conversation but radical Islamists are nothing compared to the track record of the radical Christian dominated west. Nukes, f35s, mass sanctions and child death. Genocide after genocide. All voted in power. Meanwhile radical islam was blanket condemned
@jasper911janath@AxadJimco@JayDyer You’re from SEA, i recommend you start reading about “Dum Diversas” and “Romanus Pontifex” issued by Pope Nicholas V. Then their evolution into “Padroado” and “Patronato”. “Reduccion” and how the church fused with the colonial admin to tie legal/trade/land/slavery to conversion
@jasper911janath@AxadJimco@JayDyer After spending a night reading a summary of how every pope came into power and what they did while in power, I agree that no islamic institution could rival the catholic church.
@yevtusa@tufpraise You’re affirming that there is an allowance in your worldview for male child rape if it means you can cultivate more opium to flood China, Iran & Russia. While blaming Muslims for it when it was islamists that put an end to bachabazi and execute the child rapists we elevate.
@yevtusa@tufpraise The west calling out Bacha Bazi is ironic since it was heavily prosecuted by the Taliban and only grew under US policy to ally themselves with the afghani warlords and turn a blind eye to bacha bazi. Sometimes even standing guard outside the door while that same warlord partook
@LevantLaith@CoolestDudeOnX@fawzydawah The main driver is retention. Christianity does more evangelizing and gets more converts but it hemorrhages adherents quicker than any other religion. iirc the birth rates are 2.5 vs 2.7 so even per capita thats not enough to explain the difference in growth.
@CoolestDudeOnX@fawzydawah Now look up who has more kids. Christians or muslims. More people are born into christianity than islam. The real reason islam is growing is retention and conversion since christians have more total babies but are shrinking due to those 2 same factors
@ObjectChristian@JMNewsNetwork_ This was only the case in the USA. Interestingly enough the type of people joining are very different than the ones leaving. The main driver behind their increase relative to Christianity is retention + religious switching. Christians actually have more children world wide.
@jawboneofsamson Ex. The islamic dilemma relies entirely on a very narrow understanding of the word “confirmation” to mean complete 100% authenticates as opposed to general confirmation that differs on specifics which muslims argue fits way better with the whole of the text and corpus.
@jawboneofsamson Its basically forces you to allow for god to use rhetorical-fine albeit scientifically incorrect statements. If you allow it then you have to admit that any argument based on uncharitable readings of others texts are hypocritical. There goes a lot of polemic techniques
@nowfollowjesus@korrathetaymi The Catholic Church does not believe the eucharist is symbolic. The second half of your statement isn’t even worth a comment.
@AhmedSheriffdin They’re holding a mirror up to some of the techniques modern Christian polemicists employ. The steel man is it’s objectively wrong to say it’s the smallest and to allow it as a rhetorical technique you need to be charitable but a lot of the polemicists args rely on the opposite
@Aelthemplaer Pretty sure God isn’t impressed with numbers when he says great. You could have chosen any other verse but your hate-filled heart deludes you, away from even Jesus.
@poivredetom@hashurtag Idea is the 5 pillars of islam are the sunni creed. These are all attested to in the quran directly and in our hadeth independently. Shias add a 6th pillar and adjust the sheehada
@commoncents1987@Negen_11 You’re right our overly hyper-sexualized society where people are used to easy repercussion-free sex from tinder and club hopping. The drugs and alcohol here don’t make things better.
@commoncents1987@Negen_11 The sourcing on this is horrible btw. I read a few of the underlying studies and in some countries they consider cat calling and whistling sexual assult which gets dumped into “the rape scale” in other countries asking a girl on a date once is considered assault and counted
@CalMEurofan Remember the reason theyre now awknowledging 73k despite the number not changing and them denying it for 3 years is so they can deny the 200k+ number that Gaza documents when the dust settles and they can do a head count.
@tobaccogorilla@bourema_imad There was an infamous “documentry” that was blasted everywhere in the early 2000s trying to prove it in an attempt to undermine muslim sources. Its creator has since largely distanced himself from that scene. A few years ago he reemerged for a sec in speakers corner but fell off
