Fucking hell, what a backwards country. How hard is it to just let people wear/not wear what they want? Fuck!

[-] VelvetStorm@lemmy.world 50 points 9 months ago

Because sky daddy says women and jews are bad and we have to listen to sky daddy.

[-] There1snospoon7491@lemmy.world 17 points 9 months ago

Would be real nice if this supposed Omni benevolent god came down here and kicked the shit out of his misbehaving kids. You know, like a parent is supposed to do.

[-] electrogamerman@lemmy.world 14 points 9 months ago

I would love for skydaddy to come and punish all these extremist religious people.

Of course, we all know sky daddy is an invention for expansion of kingdoms and control of people.

[-] VelvetStorm@lemmy.world 12 points 9 months ago

Ya but God is the ultimate deadbeat parent so...

I am confused - are you still talking about Iran here, or the US? Because I seem to recall a bunch of recent legislation in the US that wants to regulate how people may dress (topic of crossdressing / discriminating against transgenders).

The morality members want it this way. They feel moral doing this.

What a coincidence... She "fainted", probably just by coincidence when the burka gestapo came.

[-] electrogamerman@lemmy.world 52 points 9 months ago

Religion of peace!

[-] Nudding@lemmy.world 25 points 9 months ago

Just like catholicism is the religion of adult hetero-normies.

They're all scams

[-] electrogamerman@lemmy.world 20 points 9 months ago

Why is it than when someone criticizes muslim, there is always a comment replying "bUt CaThOlIcISm or bUt ChRiStIaNiSm"

Yes, all religions are shit.

[-] can@sh.itjust.works 25 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

Because so many people like to pretend it's only Muslims with problems

[-] cricket97@lemmy.world 13 points 9 months ago

oh please. this entire place cries about christianity 100x more than they do about islam.

[-] can@sh.itjust.works 5 points 9 months ago

I was speaking more broadly than just on Lemmy.

[-] maporita@unilem.org 6 points 9 months ago

It's only Islamists that beat girls to death for not wearing the right headgear, or stone people to death for committing adultery, or execute people for being gay, or strap bombs to themselves and try and kill as many innocent people as possible. Yes .. all religions are stupid and most are regressive and have crazy rules. But one religion is objectively far worse than all the rest put together (and I include the vile christian conservatives in that group).

In this minute of history, in certain parts of the world, in certain social circles.

No, I agree. Muslims, Christians, catholics, all are idiots.

[-] dQw4w9WgXcQ@lemm.ee 15 points 9 months ago

From what I can recall, when muslim do bad shit, people tend to comment that islam is shit. But when christians do bad shit, people tend to comment that religion is shit.

I don't know. It might be some weird confirmation bias where I feel like muslims as a whole get more targeted hate when I actually want to hate you all equally.

That last paragraph is chef's kiss.

Any institution that requires its members to have "faith" in a given set of entities is always dangerous for a free, civilized world. Religions by definition fall into this set of institutions. The cure for this is making high quality education extremely accessible to everyone around the world. Educational universities are soft power, where qualities like freedom, liberty, democracy etc. can be entrenched in people. Not doing this = allowing dangerous faith based institutions to erode away at these values.

[-] raspberriesareyummy@lemmy.world 9 points 9 months ago

All religions are shit. However, religion is a tool for those in power to control the masses. The root cause of the fucked up Iranian government is not Islam, it's power hungry assholes who - thanks to the patriarchate being in place at the time they got to the top, happen to be misogynistic fucktards.

[-] ClarkDoom@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

All religions are not shit. All organized religion is. You don’t ever hear of a Taoist committing these kind of acts.

If someone assaults you for not wearing religious clothing, they are oppressing your freedoms and need to be dealt with accordingly.

Violence is preferable

[-] phx@lemmy.world 5 points 9 months ago

Yeah the ones doing the oppression are those most likely to resort to violence

Fuck all of the world religions. They are all liars and frauds. They have no answers other than: "you are wrong"

[-] FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world 7 points 9 months ago

Agreed.

Religion is poison. Doesn't matter which one you pick.

Lucky other women in the train, who all wore theirs voluntarily. /s

[-] cricket97@lemmy.world 16 points 9 months ago

Hijabs are a sign of female empowerment i've been told.

[-] 1984@lemmy.today 12 points 9 months ago

I think a suitable punishment for this would be to torture the guy and cut off his dick to make sure his genes doesn't spread.
