Okay thank you for speaking plainly.
I don't know, perhaps because I am a white agnostic American male I have difficulty understanding any reasonable sane person in the 21st century who would be genuinely and seriously offended by the idea of TITS as an abstraction. If cleavage offends you? Just don't look. (God/Allah will protect you from the resulting earthquakes.)
I think it's common knowledge that guys like the titties = earthquake guy are to Islam as Fred Phelps is to Christianity. Are you really saying that the average, "ordinary" Muslim on the street is going to be disgusted that somewhere in the world, there are boobies, how insensitive? Cause, by that logic people should really stop making porn...or probably movies in general.
I mean if this was everybody-fuck-out-of-wedlock day and the concern that was some Christians would be offended, I wouldn't really care then either. Maybe the issue is more that I just don't give a crap about organized religion especially when it is being really silly.
Okay.
This conversation would be a lot more productive without the vague one liners and if both sides would read what the other person was saying and respond with a certain amount of depth?
I mean geodude I love you man but you make conversations longer than they have to be when people have to respond to how you feel one sentence at a time!

disbelief tends to have that effect on me!
max is it really that hard to understand that muslims: they don't like women showing an inordinate amount flesh and form! it's not like this is always something forced either, awrah and purdah are deeper than that and are hardwired into muslim culture in the same way that a lot of social ideas are hardwired into ours, for better or worse.
interestingly the concept of awrah does not just apply to women! common misconception

So, we shouldn't point out grossly misogynistic tendencies of muslim extremists because other moderate muslims might want to try to play the victim and feel "victimized" by this? Is that what you're saying geodude?
I am genuinely confused. From what I can gather you are saying that I shouldn't question or ridicule a religion (or something associated with a religion) on the basis that it is a religion, and it might offend someone's religious sensibilities.
i wouldn't dream of telling anyone to do anything but just be aware it is a dick thing to do and it makes you sound ignorant. fuck making it a general rule it's gotta be situational but it's stupid to do it here because you are at base level ridiculing a core belief that is founded in deep metaphysical concepts and not just arbitrary reppression
But I find the metaphysical concepts to be incredible and preposterous and I abhor the destructive core beliefs that stem from them, one of which is repression. If I look like a dick when I fight it (whatever my methods, be it reasoning or ridicule), so be it.
then you're probably ignorant of it! because i find it hard to believe you would actually find them abhorrent
Bad timing: 6.5 magnitude earthquake hits Taiwan for Boobquake 2010

I find the destructive core beliefs abhorrent, or at least the practices that result from them! Like the repression of women or homophobia!
I find nothing ignorant about that stance.
or at least the practices that result from them
two entirely different things. abhorrent is a bit strong!
I feel quite strongly on the issue(s). And they aren't entirely different if one has lead to the other!
