Showing Original Post only (View all)Terrorists are full of shit. [View all]
Why should I believe this guy cares anymore about that book than that flag and that millitary style vehicle? I don't.
ISIS reminds me of a big ass bunch of gangbangers who kill and rape and Terrorize nations waving that book around like a prop. Do they believe? Probably, yes. Does that mean they are doing it for their GOD? Fuck no. They are power hungry assholes who want to kill and take and destroy, the book is just a prop, God is just an excuse... An easy excuse.
Reminds me of Christian serial killers who 'find' Jesus. They knew about Jesus the entire time they were killing folks, it had nothing to do with Jesus. Full of shit.
These terrorists are not Muslims who are trying to live their lives and do God's work and accept and care for this earth they feel they are lucky to be blessed with. These are terrorists. They care more for Killing and power than for any God they could possibly believe in. Just because they say they are doing this in God's name don't mean they are doing it FOR God. They are full of shit.

I read somewhere that this is a mis-translation. The passage is correctly translated "70 raisins."
