i honestly thought you meant muslim lemmy users
That's disgusting
So is the religion so it all equals out right?
Islamaphobia is also disgusting. Like racism or antisemitism. Don't be a creep
I view all religions equally, don't feel special All hail the flying spaghetti monster Ramen
Being a shithole over religion still makes you a shithole.
I'm fine with that.
Have a great day
The problem here is climate change, not Islam.
Edit: This will be happening in more and more places as time goes by.
Hopefully “pilgrimage” doesn’t mean flying from all corners of the world spraying carbon everywhere, for the sake a 2000 year old fictional story ?
And if it is, let’s hope it’s not to a country built on the extraction of fossil fuels and builds indoor snow domes in the desert ?

Islam is 1400 years old. You're thinking of Christianity.
After everything I wrote, it’s hard to understand how I have been mistaken for someone who cares when a religion was actually founded.

I'm pointing out that you're a person who doesn't know the basics of a belief system you're criticising.
Hajj is obligatory once in a lifetime for people who are able to make the journey.
For people who are able to afford air travel, I doubt that one international trip per lifetime is going to make a significant difference in their carbon emissions.
The only basic fact that matters is that IT'S FICTIONAL.
Getting details wrong is irrelevant when the very core of the citicism is that ALL OF IT IS FICTIONAL.
Your improv cue was "you're a grade school student throwing a tantrum when someone points out major factual errors in your book review of Alice in Wonderland"
You can't prove that. That's just your belief.
If you get angry because other people have different beliefs from you, then what does that make you?
I'd say it makes you the equivalent of a religious zealot.
Keep projecting
Projection? Are you suggesting that I'm intolerant of other people's belief systems?
On the contrary. I spoke up for Islam because you were attacking Islam. I would do the same for Jews or Buddhists or Hindus or atheists or anyone.
I believe in peaceful coexistence. I am only intolerant of intolerance.
You're projecting your anger or at least indignation.
I was pointing out the absurdity of demanding someone have intricate knowledge of all the details of another person's delusional fantasies before dismissing them as harmful falsehood.
I'm sorry Timmy, I don't need to know what fictional medical school your imaginary friend Dr. Hopkins the bunny surgeon went to or the date and time you dreamed him up to tell you he's not real.
