This is a football forum where people come for light-hearted bullshit, not to read about your obvious issues with religion. We get it, you hate it. Point made.

Not everyone feels the same, and you highlighting a few religious dickheads every day won't change how people feel.

I despise IS and all the other religious nutters, I'd happily drop a bomb on them all, but I happen to know several people who converted to Islam and they have nothing but hatred for the people using their religion in the name of terrorism.

I'm guessing Aberdeen is a very white Christian city, perhaps if you got out a bit more you'd realise not every non-Christian person is out to cut your head off.

I'd encourage you to explore the arguments so you actually understand them.

They can't be true Muslims if they have hate in their hearts. So much for converting to Islam, the religion of peace!

I don't think I can feed 5000 people with one Warburtons Super Toastie and a box of fish fingers.

Just because people are religious it doesn't mean they believe everything their bible says. I don't think I can feed 5000 people with one Warburtons Super Toastie and a box of fish fingers.

He made the point that they are sending a message to the West that they can do what they like to people without any form of retribution.
Surely it's only a matter of time before the latent Islamaphobia in the West leads to racists or the families of victims tracking down the families of IS volunteers and killing their sisters, brothers and parents in the Judeo-Christian eye for an eye tradition?

That would send a message that if you bugger off to be a terrorist your family in the US or Europe will die. I would never advocate such action but considering the racist mentality that pervades our culture it doesn't seem to be a particularly far-fetched possibility.

It makes sense to me.
