Wasn’t the Quran burning a while ago?

They’re a bit slow, aren’t they?

Another one was planned and given permission for today, Thursday, July 20th. So they were egged on beforehand.

Ah my bad, must’ve missed that then lmao

That’s a good way to get blown up by mines, ain’t it?

up on assault charges while on a foreign posting, flees INTO North Korea, surely the actions of a sane and well-balanced individual /s

The religion of peace strikes again?

appel ,

Even the most peaceful person is going to get a little pissed if you burn something they hold sacred, mockingly, and then get ready to do it several times again. (After you’ve seen the distress it causes)

theViscusOne ,

Oh no, a book was burned.

What kind of religion encourages violence over something so trivial?

All of them basically.

Nice. The redditors are so used to their echo chamber that they come out with such easy dunkables.

theViscusOne ,

Examples please.

PlatypusXray ,

Maybe. Being a little pissed is everyone’s right. So, I agree with you.

Maybe you will agree that only criminally deranged idiots will turn to violence over the damaging of a book.

sugar_in_your_tea ,

It’s not the damage to the book necessarily, but the complete lack of respect and intention to cause anger.

It would kind of be like burning a Constitution and American Flag on Independence Day in front of the Capitol or maybe Washington Monument. Or lighting a cross on fire in front of the Lincoln memorial on Juneteenth or MLK Jr. Day. Or setting up Swastikas in front of synagogues during Passover.

It’s essentially intentionally spreading hate. Now, if you burn a Torah, Qu’ran, and Bible as an anti-religion demonstration on some random day of the year, that’s a completely different thing. But doing such a demonstration on a religion’s holiest of days in front of that religion’s places of worship is a very different matter.

German spotted. Shouldn’t you be a bit more careful about inciting hatred towards religious groups?

Lmao. Surely this just proves we must burn all Quran’s.

Hello! Your title might not match the title of the article you linked! Could you please double check, and edit your post title if it indeed does not match? article title: “Russia strikes Ukrainian port cities for third consecutive night” (Similairity: ~42%).

BING BONG this action was performed semi-automatically by a bot (:

Title was changed later, I’m using the original title.

P.S. Comment is meant for the mods, not the bot.

NewsAutoMod ,

Good news! This should no longer happen, as the bot now runs every 60 seconds, so it will clear your post at the moment you post it (and then ignore it in the scans after that). Thank you for letting me know that this was such an issue (:

Thank you. 👍

It’s the same age old story: big guy punches a small guy and when the small guy punches back, the big guy starts crying that he’s been punched.

Cause and effect, you reap what you sow.

vegai , to worldnews in Kremlin accuses West of turning blind eye to Ukrainian 'terrorist attacks' against Russia

The ratio between civilian casualties on both sides is probably something like 1:1000, right? What a complete tool.

Blizzard , to world in Swedish embassy in Baghdad stormed, set alight over Koran burning

So it’s not ok to burn a book but it’s ok to burn a building.

lildictator ,

If I may…

It is not okay to burn your own book but it is okay to burn somebody else’s building

afraid_of_zombies ,

Or crash planes into it.

taanegl , to worldnews in Kremlin accuses West of turning blind eye to Ukrainian 'terrorist attacks' against Russia

Uhm… it’s war? The war you started? A war caused by one of the biggest terrorist state? A glass house of a state.

hopelessbyanxiety ,

i’m sure you’re talking about the US. Waging war over 10 countries or more in the last 20 years and staging coups. To all the civillians who became victims, thats quite a terrorist policy.

bossito , (edited ) to world in Swedish embassy in Baghdad stormed, set alight over Koran burning
@bossito@lemmy.world avatar

So they have zero confidence in their own god to punish Sweden or coran burners.

I call it “fragile religiosity” or “weak faith”.

raltoid ,

It’s more that conservatives in general think an attack on something they like is a personal attack on themselves.

karabiener ,

personally i like burned corns

Demigod787 , to world in Swedish embassy in Baghdad stormed, set alight over Koran burning

This must have been an unexpected turn of events to everyone.

People will do batshit crazy shit if they think God wants them to.

GONADS125 ,

And unfortunately there are so many gods…

FoxBJK ,
@FoxBJK@midwest.social avatar

There’s some overlap though. Lots of different names for the same entity.

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

People say the Islamic god and the Christian god are the same god, but Christians and Muslims can’t even agree on what their god is within their own religions, hence all the sectarianism, so I don’t really buy that.

GONADS125 ,

Don’t forget Judaism. God, Yahweh and Allah are all the same deity, yet look how much bloodshed has been spilled over which one interpreted things correctly…

afraid_of_zombies ,

Which one? Catholics got 5 major gods, and like hundreds of minor ones. Prots got 4 major gods. Muslims have two major and a bunch of minor ones.

lolcatnip ,

That like asking if movie Superman is the same character as comic book Superman. It’s entirely a matter of opinion.

afraid_of_zombies ,

I am sure my buddy who is a copyright lawyer would disagree;)

But yeah your point is taken.

InverseParallax ,

Then you have the Hindu gods which is basically like the less popular 3/4 of the Marvel catalog.

I can make this joke, someone else will have to do the greeks.
