re: Australian Imam: Make No Mistake, Islamic Scripture Commands Beheadings, Massacre People

Anyone who knows anything about history knows what this guy says is true. It's not even debatable. Islam started in Saudi Arabia and spread across the Mid-East by conquest. Iran, for instance, was practicing old Indo-European religions in ancient times, and then by about 500 BCE, they started practicing Zoroastrianism. Iran today still has Zoroastrian minorities and was a pretty religiously tolerant country until 1979.

To be fair, though, the same happened to Europe with Christianity. Everyone was just chilling worshiping nature (Druids) or the old Indo-European pantheon of gods (like Zeus) until the Romans moved in and forcibly converted everyone (and then those people themselves converted others throughout the centuries). This means YOUR ancestors, baws, were pagans back in the day.

Religious people always want to force others to believe what they believe. It's all about power and suborning populations. Personally, I really don't give a shite what other people believe and this is why I am not religious.
