Define islam.

From the official statement by ISIS on the Brussels attacks:

"First we want to make it clear to all that what makes the kafir’s blood permissiable to spill is not him fighting the Muslims, rather it is his “KUFR” that necessitates his killing. So if one asks, can you kill a Kafir (who does not fight Islamand muslims)? the answer is a big YES."

In other words, nothing that we do or don't do will affect whether or not we will be targeted. Even if we do nothing whatsoever to upset Muslims and the middle eastern countries, the fact that we are "other" means we are legitimate targets for killing.

If we're going to have this discussion we should bring out the big guns early.

Wrong.

Wrong.

Nope, literally means it. I am glad most muslims are really nice but islam itself is sick, and as welcome as the inquisition

Isn't it one of those words with multiple meanings? I think it means peace as well as a bunch of other things.

I'm sure you feel that way, but that's not what it literally means. Nobody would be thinking this if it wasn't for Van Gogh films, Geert Wilders, or other anti-Islam stuff.

Or even the official statement from the group claiming responsibility for the attacks.

Where does it say that Islam means submission?

I couldn't care less about what they say, but it probably doesn't say that.

It means that, sorry I can't change that. Being anti-islam is just sane imho, but I will admit that Wilders and van Gogh are/were sometimes needlesly offensive

It's the way you presented it. You made it out to imply the forced submission of others when it actually means submitting yourself to higher power, which is exactly the opposite of telling people what to do.

[Philippus Flavius Homovallumus]

Define islam.

Submission to Divine Will.
