"Bible is infallible": then you must adhere to it entirely
"Bible is subjective": then it's not needed

Clearer?

@Gardview @ConfessionsExMu Wait, you being serious? You hate people because there could potentially be issues in the future? Do you just hate everyone then? Do you hate people for disagreeing with you?

@BriteAura @SkepticNikki @jordanbpeterson @Matt_Dillahunty My prediction: it will be exhausting wheel-spinning. JP will word salad the conversation into a murky “depends what your definition of is is” and nobody will learn a thing

[illastray @illastr8]

It’s tiring to see @SamHarrisOrg put so much effort into understanding others’ views, and for them to endlessly misrepresent him in return.

Keep fighting the good fight, Sam. You have changed my life and are an ongoing inspiration.

@rwatson1955 @EdzardErnst That comment section :(
I think if you haven't figured out by now that Homeopathy is bunk, you just never will.

@0mahira0 @AngryBlackLady @MuslimIQ You didn't reply to my "proof" regarding non-believers & apostates. It's pretty important; my entire original statement is based on it.

[illastray @illastr8]

@0mahira0 @MuslimIQ What's more built-in than the Qur'an? I denounce fire&brimstone OT stuff too. I just don't like hateful dogmatic teachings.

[illastray @illastr8]

@0mahira0 @AngryBlackLady @MuslimIQ The thing they ALL have in common: the Qur'an. As I said, the vast majority of Muslims are loving & take the evil bits with a grain of salt.

[illastray @illastr8]

@0mahira0 @AngryBlackLady @MuslimIQ Correct, I never said it's all terror. Just some of it.

[illastray @illastr8]

@0mahira0 @AngryBlackLady @MuslimIQ I denounce hatred regardless which book it's in. Have you not read the Qur'an? It preaches peace and hatred both. I denounce the hatred.

[illastray @illastr8]

@0mahira0 @AngryBlackLady @MuslimIQ "Terror" is admittedly provocative. But can we at least agree that the Qur'an endorses killing of non-Muslims and apostates?

[illastray @illastr8]

@lizzyborden123 Totally agree. Community comes from cooperation, not from dogmatic oppressive thinking.

[illastray @illastr8]

@C_Stroop @Azuregris I don't care about superiority, only the truth. But you're welcome to believe whatever you want.

[illastray @illastr8]

@C_Stroop @Azuregris What makes you think I'm angry or bigoted? I'm here to learn.

[illastray @illastr8]

@CharlieParker41 @AngryBlackLady I didn't say that at all. I said most Muslims are loving and know which parts of the Qur'an to take with a grain of salt. I denounce dogma.

[illastray @illastr8]

@MarySueSays My profile photo isn't actually my face :) Have you read the Qur'an? Which part of my tweet is ignorant? I'm listening.

[illastray @illastr8]

@CharlieParker41 @AngryBlackLady We don't need any more reasons to hate. I'm simply denouncing one that claims divine credibility. I'd denounce a prof that teaches hate too.

[illastray @illastr8]

@GeorgMir That's why I said most Muslims are loving and know which parts of the Qur'an to take with a grain of salt. I don't see this as bigoted.

[illastray @illastr8]

@GeorgMir We have a lot of problems to address indeed. The best way in my opinion is through reason and cooperation.

[illastray @illastr8]

@GeorgMir I never said that. I'm merely noticing that the Qur'an gives divine permission to do hateful acts. It a fact that's dangerous to ignore.

[illastray @illastr8]

@GeorgMir I'm certain you & I both condemn these evils just the same.
