I believe that there should never be the one religion enforced as compulsory learning at school, unless that school is based around that religion i.e catholic schools.

Dawkins, "...God knows we wouldn't want them to get it from scripture..." at least the cute atheist teacher caught it, perhaps also the Muslim woman & the gentleman by her as well. Let's hear it for cross cultural gender neutral atheist humor!!!
Besides all the brainwashing that could go on to really make muslim girls believe they have to wear a veil, it's obvious they'll "choose' to wear it, imagine what would happen if they didn't? At best they would be excluded from their segregated communities which are already segragated from the rest of the world, either on a large scale (nation) or small (muslims in England, for example) and at worst they'll be killed.
It's obvious most will "choose" to wear it....out of their own free will...
i'm a born again christian and i wasn't brought up and told i was a christian. I was given the choice, and I was 17 when i began looking into the christian faith without prompt from anyone, and of my own mind decided that's what i believe.
Then i looked into other faiths, and i have remained a christian.
I respect everyone, because the only thing that seperates me from them is choice. And while i believe my position is correct, i have the right to choose, and the right to change to my mind.
FUCKING WAKE UP PEOPLE! ALL RELIGIONS ARE LIES DIVISION AND HATE! IF YOU CAN PROVE ME WRONG I WILL APOLOGIZE! BUT YOU CAN'T THEREFORE YOU WONT. FAITH IS BLIND STUPIDITY! REASON AND SCIENCE IS THE WAY FORWARD AND AS SOON AS THESE FAIRYTALES ARE ONCE AND FOR ALL WIPED FROM THE FACE OF THE EARTH. PEACE WILL PREVAIL.
@strangerlover11 I'm at a loss. Why exactly is she a bitch? Where you are from, isn't her kind allowed to voice an opinion? Are you from one of those places where she would have been stoned, spat on, or killed for speaking her mind?
The muslim girl is 16?! she looks 40. also why are the atheist chicks always hot and smart while the theist chicks are ugly, fat and stupid. Not that i'm complaining mind you.
Tbh, if this whole thing is just a massive test to some vindictive Deity who seeks to punish people for eternity for not repenting totally sins, then I don't want anything to do with it.
If Catholicism is true (lol) then God is a douchebag and I want nothing to do with him
How can the atheists delude themselve and believe that hydrogen and oxygen, electrons and protons, should first produce themselves, then be the source for all other beings, and finally decree the laws that regulate themselves and the rest of the material world?
@1tabligh How can people who believe in God when they have no answer to how or what created God. Second, If you believe protons and electrons are fundamental particles you should learn more about science. Thirdly, quantum mechanics allows infinite amount of universes with infinitely different laws of physics. It's like when Einstein made General Relativity and it allowed for black holes. We have just proved that black holes exist, and we may prove that they are infinite amount of Universes.

The Manifestations of God in Nature
If in the course of developing the argument of the orderliness of the universe we attempt to prove the existence of a maker similar to the human maker, the divine maker will, in reality, also be a created being on the level of man; proving the existence of such a maker is an entirely different matter from proving the existence of the Maker and Creator of all being....
The Creator of the universe cannot be preceded by non-existence; otherwise, He would need another god to create Him; and that god, if he is preceded by non-existence, would need another god and so on. Thus, we would have an endless chain of gods without reaching a **causeless cause** to be the source of the existence of the universe. Then we have to deny the existence of the universe. We would also have to deny ourselves because we are a part of the universe. ...
From a scientific point of view, the self-origination of matter is impossible; the theory that the material world is constantly evolving and advancing toward higher states is clearly contradictory to scientific data and the realities of nature. All development and motion in the mineral realm is due either to the intervention of a will external to matter or to attraction, interchange, and compounding with other bodies.
@1tabligh I love how you never even touched on the fact that GOD CANNOT COME OUT OF NOWHERE. Have you ever thought that the Universe is infinite. Also, if you say that God is Infinite what took God so long to create a finite universe (which the universe is most likely not).
@AtheistPride007 Have you ever thought that the Universe is infinite.
_____
This means that the materialists accept the principle of eternity and non-origination!
Eternity is incompatible with the mode of being possessed by matter and the factors and attributes necessitated by its nature. The belief of those who have faith in God concerning a fixed and absolute principle relates to a being who in and of his nature can accept stability and absoluteness; his nature is completely ...
devoid of and remote from the properties of matter.
The very nature of matter refuses permanence, eternity and continuity, for it can never separate itself from movement, relativity, and it stands in opposition to being a prime or absolute agent.
All beings were originally non-beings; they were non-existent, and then they became existent. Deluded atheists wish to say that the matter/universe is eternal, but this notion is incorrect for the following reasons: ...
First, if the material matter/universe is eternal, it follows that an eternal being should be subject to change and cessation, which is impossible.
"Second, if the elements comprising the matter/universe are eternal by virtue of their essence, how is it possible that they should enter the embrace of death and disappearance?
And if, conversely, they lack life in their essences, how can life surge forth from them?
"If you say that living beings emerge from living element ...
and inanimate beings from inanimate elements, we reply that an essence that lacks life in and of itself cannot be eternal and cannot be the source for life.
Belief in the eternity of the matter/energy/universe is held by those who deny the existence of a ruler and planner of creation, reject the messengers of God, regard the books they bring as the fables of the ancients, and **** concoct **** beliefs pleasing to themselves.
@1tabligh You still haven't addressed the question on GOD. First you can't disprove the fact the Universe is infinite nor can you prove it (for the time being). You have no idea of science and you just blurt out nonsense. Please hahaha you have no answer to where did God come from. Keep deluding yourself on how that question is irrelevant because it is.
His Existence is not coming into Being from non-existence.
The Need of the World for One Without Need
The principle of causality is a general and universal law and foundation for all efforts of man, both in the acquisition of knowledge and in his customary activities. The strivings of scholars to uncover the cause of every phenomenon, whether natural or social, arise from the belief that no phenomenon originates in and of itself without the intervention of causes and agents.
@1tabligh You just keep sounding stupider and stupider by every post. His (GOD IS A MALE WTF HAHAHA) existence is not coming into being from non-existence. In other words your just saying you have no clue. Just what I thought. I'm done talking to you as I got my point and exposed you and your belief in God. You MUST ANSWER THAT QUESTION OF WHERE DID GOD COME FROM. Until then get your head out of your arse and I'm done talking to you.
The deficiency lies in all the languages of the world, None of them have a word to define the gender for God. The word He, She, Thou, Thy, It....etc are all merely substitutes, they do not represent the gender of the One who does not have a gender.
Any supposable phenomenon in the universe was submerged in the darkness of non-being before it assumed the form of being. It cannot pierce the darkness of non-being and step forth on the plain of being as an existent thing until the powerful hand of causality sets to work.
The relationship between cause and effect is the relationship between two existing things, in the sense that the existence of one of them is dependent on the existence of the other. Every effect has a relationship of affinity and harmony with its cause, since the effect draws its existence from the cause. This specific relationship cannot be destroyed or replaced by another. ...
Whenever you consider the quiddity of a thing that has an identical relationship to being and non-being, neither of them being rationally essential for it, that thing is technically designated as "contingent," in the sense that there is nothing within its essence necessitating either being or non-being. If a thing in its own essence requires its own non-being, then its existence is impossible.
Finally, if being emerges from within the essence of a thing in such a way that reason cannot regard it as dependent on anything else, the existence of that thing is designated as necessary. It is an independent being, free of all need and subsisting by means of its own essence; its existence is the source of all other beings, while it is not subject itself to any need or condition.
@AtheistPride007 u r 100% correct hommie no one can say were did god come from. but i think the sumerians were da closes to tellin us. they knew da world was round they knew how many planets their were in our solar system without telescopes or any hightek devices da we have to day and their reasone for knowing this was dat they got da knowledge from beings dat were not from this earth. dat my friend i believe is da root of all religion.
"the theory that the material world is constantly evolving and advancing toward higher states is clearly contradictory to scientific data and the realities of nature"
Dude were you living under a rock in the last 150 years? What the heck are you taking about?
Because Americans are stupid and the sheer thought of an intellectual debate would jsut mean no ratings becasue the vast majority of retards would not understand it.
This show doesn't pull that many ratings. I may not like America to a fault but I do not agree with you, they have shows like this on state based channels, so instead of this show giving work to 1 shows worth of people they have 50 or so shows worth of people being employed, please keep your criticism of things you know nothing about at least logical.
I sense that British culture holds as a higher ideal the concept of the collective good and the dispassionate argument. Contrariwise the US, and country steeped in pioneerism and individualism, tends to solve problems with a higher emotional content.
Whether British debates are better than US ones is not for me to say, but I prefer this video because it seems more informative when all views are expressed without interruption.
Americans are not open to debate their religion. They in fact the majority get insulted and start attacking you verbally when you question them, it's not a good idea.
If you say your an atheist around American Christians they'll probably think your a terrorist, some are that bad.
The former muslim lady is right! The religions stronghold is in the fact that it define its self by its self thus being what it is with no regard to what really does to a single individual. So they say that this is the ultimate rule and that rule shall not be broken and thus you can not question that rule no matter what.
Why do the Muslims there react so hostilely whenever their faith is questioned? Both the 16 year old girl wearing the veil and the older Muslim Dr see to get very angry when people question them. I totally agree with what the witness is saying that if you question Islam the followers of it will call you a racist, ignorant, bias, or they will say that offends them and then we have to stop questioning them because their feelings get hurt. That doesn't work! if your going to believe something
"god" never once mentioned dinosaurs in the bible, not once. something as big as dinosaurs, thats because the bible is bullshit, the bible was finished about 1600 years ago, and dinosaurs were only discovered 400 years ago, but the all knowing "god" must have knew,
In that day the LORD with his sore and great and strong sword shall punish leviathan.the piercing serpent, even leviathan.that crooked serpent; and he shall slay the dragon that is in the sea.
There isn't a hebrew word for dinosaur. They obviously referred to it as the dragon. Which is pretty much a reptile (in my first comment I meant to say reptile instead of lizard).
In that case, the Greeks must have known about dinosaurs when they speak of sea monsters. Same with the Chinese culture, the Celtic culture, and even Native-American cultures. All thought of monsters ie. giant lizards/reptiles/three-headed dogs/cyclops/ect. That comes from our imagination and fear of the unknown. Not because some god told someone.
Yes, that is true. But I never said the bible was true. Some one said that the bible never mentioned dinosaurs, and another asked for the verse in which they "hint" at dinosaurs existance. So I hooked em up with one.
The Bible mentions dragons 3 times, which was the closest English word to the Hebrew one that means land/sea monster. I would hardly state that that means dinosaur. The Bible doesn't include information about dinosaurs because the people that wrote the Bible didn't know that dinosaurs existed.
Couldnt agree more. Her circumstance is rare and if it was up to the majority in her faith she would have be stoned for even speaking out (if im not mistaken).
How do you know? Maybe she is proud of her religion. Maybe she sees her veil as something beautiful. It's not because you don't agree that she can't. She comes across as a very intelligent girl. She herself raised the point that she did not want to go to a Muslim school in order to be exposed to other religions, so, most likely, she has encountered people without a veil, which, in turn, strengthens my belief that wearing it is a positive choice, not a result of teachings.
wow, so..... the catholic church opposes abortion. so what if a woman tell the church that she is having complications and if she doesn't get the abortion she will die. Do they tell her to sin and have the abortion or pray for health and die anyways. These are some of the issues that wrong with religions. Abortion is a sin, oh but not in if your raped, gonna die, or have aid? Where do you draw the line?
check the deprived look on the catholic girl, almost as she`s going " What treat others as I would want them to treat me!? What the hell is that all about?" x)
u guy, how are muslim woman oppressed? even when ur parents want to do something for ur own good, like stop u from a party, ul say u r being oppressed. and so when woman are told to cover themselves so men dont bother them, then u say they are oppressed even tho they guard themselves. Men are told to protect woman and wives, dnt be so naive...... are both sexes equal?
do you bother other women who dont cover themselves? you wont as you know there's a law and you'll be punished.men dont bother women coz of law not coz of veils.
i advise them on occasion in a cool way, they already know, but its their choice not mine, God says in the Quran that HE guides, WE dont do that. He also says that it may be that you dislike a thing but God intends to bring great good from it...
way i c it, woman only become more dignified and protected, and have a greater chance to be known for who they are rather than what they look like.
.you may have noticed that muslims girls here in this show who supports the veil have not covered their faces.this shows their hypocricy. its just stupid to say that women are protected by wearing veils.a rapist will rape a women even if a women is covered from head to toe.i find the women not wearing veils as dignified as the ones wearing veils.
u mean veils as dignified as those wearing mini's ryt? showing cleavage, intentionally trying to gain sexual attraction ryt? or just knowing all of them arent trying to sexually attract anyone. or that if they all wear veils none of them will be.
as for faces, it is not compulsary to cover the face. sheesh.
haha! you yourself are an hypocryte. why the hell is it not compulsory to cover the face?the first thing men are attracted to is the face of the woman.are you a kid or what?
some of the veil supporters say that women invite sexual assaults by not wearing veils. now do you want me to believe that when a 5 year old child(or even less)is raped by some psycho, she invites him to do that?do you want to say that now the women have to wear veils even in front of their fathers as many cases of fathers raping their own biological daughters like the one in Austria have been there? just think over it and apply some come common sense.
u deal in absolutes hey? ur tellin me if a chick wears a mini skirt, and next to here is a veiled and filly covered woman, who could be old fat watever, noone knows, the rapist will infact take the covered one?
lol!your arguements are so stupid!it would take no time to rip off the veil and find out wether the girl is one hot chick or not for a rapist. it depends on the mentality of the person.if a person is of sane mind ,every girl is safe with or without veil,but if a peson is of depraved mentality .even his daughter is not safe with him.what about little girls who get raped by their own relatives.how would you stop that?by banning girls to meet them?
thanks, for callin me stupid. just imagining or should i say remembering.... my past of things that happen. and as far as i have experienced, the people iv known who look at chicks, they look at ass and cleavage breast and thighs etc. the woman who wear long dresses, they seem to attract more gentlemenly people, who dont just look for ass n thighs. who can also get to know a woman jst 4 who she is. and ofcourse, her respect 4 God, coz if people dont listen 2 God, thn how much more to a man.
now you adimtt that a women doesnt necassarily has to wear veil to be look decent.any dress as long as it is not too revealing is decent enough but veils are just lame excuse of protection. we need strict laws to protect women not veils.
im sorry but i a woman looking decent, and a woman following God's law's r 2 different things. more cover more decency, more modesty, and more blessings. woman are to wear veils, muslims woman, not Khafirs. because God said so. u religious or not? laws are already there isnt it.
For all out there that say "PROVE GOD- you can't and that's why I'm atheist" I say, fine and apply your own convictions to your views on homosexuality. "PROVE HOMO -you can't and that's why your "moral values" are completely UNNATURAL, but your opinion gets in the way of logic. Look up the medical consequences to habitual homo sex, then wonder why it is oppressed from being discussed honestly. The idea of spirituality is to think through the consequences not persecute people.
what are you talking about? You're taking the standpoint that gay sex has negative consequences and therefore religion uses logic to deduce that homosexuality is wrong. But really, the Christian religion (and others) preaches that homosexuality is wrong because of outdated concepts written in the bible. That is not logic, that is blind faith. And gay sex, for your information, can lead to the transmission of sexually transmitted diseases however male-female sex may also. Your argument is flawed.
"Equal" he says. Girls aren't treated as equals. Wearing a scarf on your head because you're beneath a man is equal?
Do they honestly think women in Saudi Arabia would tolerate being treated as property if men following the quran didn't say "We'll kill you if you stand up for yourself"? Yes, it's cultural, and the culture is based around what? The religion. They'll let women speak only when they're defending their own oppression.
The man is doing his best to defend his beliefs to the free world. Very difficult for a man of his beliefs to defend his Religion to free men and women so he says we are "ignorant" and "prejudiced" against his people and his argument. Him saying that they treat boys and girls as "equals" is laughable. Speak on brother!
I'm not sure that I am "islamaphobic" but definitely very critical of the faith of Islam. Of course there are self proclaimed peaceful Muslims and because I know little about their interpretation of the Koran, I feel I should take them with a grain of salt. But, that doesn't mean I am not skeptical. I still can't stand their view on women's rights at the very least.
First 3 of 10 are about god, they're on annother table, prized as the most important. That is wrong to educate, it educates faith, not rights.
Secondary, things tought like Adam and Eve story (curious Eve gets punished for curocity), story where father nearly kills his son in the name of what god said to him, or Hiob's story where you're told that all the bullshit you get in live is god's will and you should obey and accept it. WILL NOT TEACH YOU ANYTHING GOOD. Religion teaches faith.
I'd like to see the research that shows atheists have the highest crime rates. I suspect your making it up reasearch in 2001 showed less than 1% of prisoners are atheists.
I believe Atheists are the most untrusted group in america, but again i suspect your lieing about europe. In 2005 only 52% of europe believed in a god
take North America! (few years ago now but all can remember off the top of my head) atheists are 25% of the population yet make up less that 1% of the prison population!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Don't be ridiculous. There is a clear reason to think his beliefs in Darwin had something to do with it. Just like the Columbine kid who was wearing a Natural Selection t-shirt when he murdered up a bunch of kids and destroyed countless lives.
You are an idiot look up Social Darwinism. That's what Hitler believed. It's the belief that the weakest should die. Darwin himself said he didn't believe in it. So learn what you are talking about before you open your mouth.
Uhm, I can say that invisible unicorns exist. Doesn't mean they do. Just because you say there is clear reason to think his beliefs in Darwin had something to do with it, that literally has no value whatsoever. Try backing up your statements with FACTS. And considering he was brought up Roman Catholic and generally believed in god, even going so far as to believing god had talked to him, I believe your point is moot.
A natural selection t-shirt eh? I doubt they knew much about evolution after attending a US high school first of all-- but how about murderers with crosses on their tunics, or stars of david on their tanks, or 'praise allah' on their lips? These people were (and continue to be) driven to murder by their religion. Are you suggesting the Columbine kid read 'the origin of species'-- and it inspired him to shoot up his school? Are you kidding?
Open a history book. Hitler was never an Atheist and Mussolini was an atheist in his early life but became a catholic later on. Sorry idiot try again.
Dawkins makes the point a lot that none of those people killed FOR atheism, Stalin for example, killed people for his politics he was a communist dictator, he didn't kill people for atheism. he just so happened to be an atheist. This is not the same as people starting holy wars in the name of their religions.
Mussolini was in fact an atheists in his youth. Several say he converted shortly before he was killed. Hitler in public claimed to be doing the will of God, but in private it was a different deal."Christianity is a rebellion against natural law, a protest against nature. Taken to its logical extreme, Christianity would mean the systematic cultivation of the human failure."a quote from Hitler 1941. And yes there's many more quotes like this one. The ends justify the means...you think?
WTF 'practice homosexuality'.....is that like 'practicing heterosexuality'? I love the lingo that comes with homosexuality - they have lifestyles, while heterosexuals have lives. Its so self riteous
Dr. Mukadam is always so ready to play the victim card.....yes you poor thing, you treat women with subordination just like every other religion...but poor you
It asstounds me that women wearing a vail would be one of the main soul reasons a a god would allow you into heaven. So your all powerful god is threatened on whether a women wears a piece of fabric? And don't give me some bullshit answer like it covers their womanly parts.
Minus the clearly pathetic religious reason for it, how about the idea that it lets the person fall in love with the person and not just their physical features?
A lovely idea, I agree. But that was not the reason that Muhammad ordered it in the first place. And taking the falling in love as read, why is it necessary for the forced continuation of veiling? This is not Shakespeare, we're talking about real women being enslaved.
and was mearly trying to get across a slightly bizzare and hopefully truthful minus the lack of a veil, that would justify a little mean to having it ^_^ lol and im gonna be quiet cause i don't make sense ^_^
The hijab is not natural, women were'nt born covered head to toe; therefore women brought up in an islamic country grow up believing they must wear it..it's true they are given the choice but how can u detach from something you were imposed with most of you life... if they were born somewhere else with other parents with a different faith or without a faith at all it would be a very different story...
First Prof Dawkins talks sense. If ethical principles are derived from fear of a deity, or embody injustice supposedly authorised by a deity, then the principles are suspect. Then, Mdm Catholic Mouthpiece talks religious nonsense "I like to talk of human values, and think of the lens your faith [provides] you [to] look at them. My religion leaves me in no doubt that life is precious". Does this aid the decision as to max times for abortion? No, its code for god says life begins at conception.
yes exactly she does it because her religion demands it of her if she wasnt brought up in that disgusting faith then would she go oh my i must have this 'fashion accesory'
Its disgusting, olvew, how you do not respect cultural differences by calling ppl who wear hijabs willingly mentally ill. I find it disturbing also that your post got some 'thumbs up'. Whats the difference between you who insults an accepted and unharmful tradition (that of wearing hijabs) and people who discriminate against homosexuals ? Youre an Atheist and theyre Christians ?
Ummmm, exactly why SHOULD we respect "cultural difference" any more than we respect religion? Should we respect the rights of Norse to drink beer from the skulls of their fallen enemies??? So what if it's a tradition! If it's the product of superstition and ignorance it deserves ridicule.
Homosexuality is a personal preference. It's not something that's being forced on anyone. Unlike your hijabs that are forced on women, reducing them to second class citizens and property. Disgusting tradition.
the ex-muslim sees it clearly. she has seen the true face of islam. it's sad that the true face of christianity seems to be gone; there would be fewer christian apologists.

@1tabligh I love how you never even touched on the fact that GOD CANNOT COME OUT OF NOWHERE. Have you ever thought that the Universe is infinite. Also, if you say that God is Infinite what took God so long to create a finite universe (which the universe is most likely not).

@AtheistPride007 Have you ever thought that the Universe is infinite.

This means that the materialists accept the principle of eternity and non-origination!
Eternity is incompatible with the mode of being possessed by matter and the factors and attributes necessitated by its nature. The belief of those who have faith in God concerning a fixed and absolute principle relates to a being who in and of his nature can accept stability and absoluteness; his nature is completely ...

devoid of and remote from the properties of matter.
The very nature of matter refuses permanence, eternity and continuity, for it can never separate itself from movement, relativity, and it stands in opposition to being a prime or absolute agent.
All beings were originally non-beings; they were non-existent, and then they became existent. Deluded atheists wish to say that the matter/universe is eternal, but this notion is incorrect for the following reasons: ...

First, if the material matter/universe is eternal, it follows that an eternal being should be subject to change and cessation, which is impossible.
"Second, if the elements comprising the matter/universe are eternal by virtue of their essence, how is it possible that they should enter the embrace of death and disappearance?
And if, conversely, they lack life in their essences, how can life surge forth from them?

and inanimate beings from inanimate elements, we reply that an essence that lacks life in and of itself cannot be eternal and cannot be the source for life.
Belief in the eternity of the matter/energy/universe is held by those who deny the existence of a ruler and planner of creation, reject the messengers of God, regard the books they bring as the fables of the ancients, and **** concoct **** beliefs pleasing to themselves.

His Existence is not coming into Being from non-existence.
The Need of the World for One Without Need
The principle of causality is a general and universal law and foundation for all efforts of man, both in the acquisition of knowledge and in his customary activities. The strivings of scholars to uncover the cause of every phenomenon, whether natural or social, arise from the belief that no phenomenon originates in and of itself without the intervention of causes and agents.

Any supposable phenomenon in the universe was submerged in the darkness of non-being before it assumed the form of being. It cannot pierce the darkness of non-being and step forth on the plain of being as an existent thing until the powerful hand of causality sets to work.
1tabligh 1 year ago
The relationship between cause and effect is the relationship between two existing things, in the sense that the existence of one of them is dependent on the existence of the other. Every effect has a relationship of affinity and harmony with its cause, since the effect draws its existence from the cause. This specific relationship cannot be destroyed or replaced by another. ...
1tabligh 1 year ago
Whenever you consider the quiddity of a thing that has an identical relationship to being and non-being, neither of them being rationally essential for it, that thing is technically designated as "contingent," in the sense that there is nothing within its essence necessitating either being or non-being. If a thing in its own essence requires its own non-being, then its existence is impossible.
1tabligh 1 year ago
Finally, if being emerges from within the essence of a thing in such a way that reason cannot regard it as dependent on anything else, the existence of that thing is designated as necessary. It is an independent being, free of all need and subsisting by means of its own essence; its existence is the source of all other beings, while it is not subject itself to any need or condition.

steakNeggs44 2 years ago
In that case, the Greeks must have known about dinosaurs when they speak of sea monsters. Same with the Chinese culture, the Celtic culture, and even Native-American cultures. All thought of monsters ie. giant lizards/reptiles/three-headed dogs/cyclops/ect. That comes from our imagination and fear of the unknown. Not because some god told someone.

The Bible mentions dragons 3 times, which was the closest English word to the Hebrew one that means land/sea monster. I would hardly state that that means dinosaur. The Bible doesn't include information about dinosaurs because the people that wrote the Bible didn't know that dinosaurs existed.

How do you know? Maybe she is proud of her religion. Maybe she sees her veil as something beautiful. It's not because you don't agree that she can't. She comes across as a very intelligent girl. She herself raised the point that she did not want to go to a Muslim school in order to be exposed to other religions, so, most likely, she has encountered people without a veil, which, in turn, strengthens my belief that wearing it is a positive choice, not a result of teachings.

lol!your arguements are so stupid!it would take no time to rip off the veil and find out wether the girl is one hot chick or not for a rapist. it depends on the mentality of the person.if a person is of sane mind ,every girl is safe with or without veil,but if a peson is of depraved mentality .even his daughter is not safe with him.what about little girls who get raped by their own relatives.how would you stop that?by banning girls to meet them?

The hijab is not natural, women were'nt born covered head to toe; therefore women brought up in an islamic country grow up believing they must wear it..it's true they are given the choice but how can u detach from something you were imposed with most of you life... if they were born somewhere else with other parents with a different faith or without a faith at all it would be a very different story...

First Prof Dawkins talks sense. If ethical principles are derived from fear of a deity, or embody injustice supposedly authorised by a deity, then the principles are suspect. Then, Mdm Catholic Mouthpiece talks religious nonsense "I like to talk of human values, and think of the lens your faith [provides] you [to] look at them. My religion leaves me in no doubt that life is precious". Does this aid the decision as to max times for abortion? No, its code for god says life begins at conception.

...she feels that "everyone is equal in the eyes of the lord" is a moral quality?

if you take out the "in the eyes of the lord" that does actually make sense.

If you wear a hijab because you want to, you are mentally ill.

yes exactly she does it because her religion demands it of her if she wasnt brought up in that disgusting faith then would she go oh my i must have this 'fashion accesory'

Its disgusting, olvew, how you do not respect cultural differences by calling ppl who wear hijabs willingly mentally ill. I find it disturbing also that your post got some 'thumbs up'. Whats the difference between you who insults an accepted and unharmful tradition (that of wearing hijabs) and people who discriminate against homosexuals ? Youre an Atheist and theyre Christians ?

Ummmm, exactly why SHOULD we respect "cultural difference" any more than we respect religion? Should we respect the rights of Norse to drink beer from the skulls of their fallen enemies??? So what if it's a tradition! If it's the product of superstition and ignorance it deserves ridicule.
Homosexuality is a personal preference. It's not something that's being forced on anyone. Unlike your hijabs that are forced on women, reducing them to second class citizens and property. Disgusting tradition.
