actually i put it into the context of allegedly religious people propagating and profiting from sin and isnt that kind of hypocritical...
I didn't see it that way. The thread had mostly a "what's so bad about porn" kind of feel to it. The guy that brought the "Jooos" into it was a Christian pointing at a Muslim for being anti-Jew and anti-Porn and I thought THAT was the ironic point. It's not that odd to find the Jews and the Muslims and the Christians hating on each other because that is part of what religion is all about.
Am I the only one who watched Metalman's post? Everything about jews and porn in that thread was based on this. Or at least, that's what I thought. This speaker spends a fair bit of effort into detailing how evil porn is, and then ends it off by declaring it to be a Jewish plot against Islam.
But that's just the way religions go at it. The Christians hate the Jews and the Jews hate the Christians too and they all describe each other as evil (in the past and today) to distinguish among themselves (the good and the evil) and to maintain their sense of righteous persecution. If people weren't out to get them all the time then folks would have to start to wonder why they have to put up with all the silly rules that come down from God through their leaders. (Oh Yeah, plus it came from metalman and it's from MEMRI so it's probably bullshit anyway - I watched a bit of it but it wasn't really doing it for me).
And my reply was that I had seen plenty of Christians making similar claims ... that Muslim bloke is dead wrong. Pornography is actually not a Jewish plot against Islam, it's a Jewish plot against Christianity. And apparently Christmas is also a Jewish plot against Christianity. If it wasn't Jews persecuting everyone it would just be atheists doing it - atheism is overrepresented in the tech industries and the educated. I'm sure it's a plot. (Obviously I wouldn't mind putting and end to Islam, Christianity and Judaism but that doesn't mean I need to kill all the people who believe those things, just get them to see it's nonsense)
Or at least get them to believe they should stop dictating what science is, or is not. And get them to stop requesting for special treatment such as exceptions to law because SkyDaddy says it's OK for them to do this. This sums it up... " I don't have an issue with what you do in the church, but I'm going to be up in your face if you're going to knock on my science classroom and tell me they've got to teach what you're teaching in your Sunday school. Because that's when we're going to fight." - Neil deGrasse Tyson
i did not watch it... i do watch some of what he posts... i just saw the jews control hollywood (netherworld) and i know its a safe bet when looking at it that way... it's very much like organized crime and i dont care what anyone says... you are allowed to point out that its a certain section of our culture doing it... i bag on catholic priests too... i hate all religions... equally...
Looking more at your response let's go back to what Metalman said - it's radical Islams that go on Jihad and radical Christians are pacifists - likely this is right. Taking the definition of radical less literally we might consider anyone a radical that goes against the norm. Therefore Metalman's statement could also be read as mainstream Christians are always on a Jihad. A Jihad is the struggle to ensure your faith is first. I'd certainly agree that mainstream Christians are always trying to put their faith first. Here's one such example of the Mainstream Baptist Pastor in daily action. This guy isn't a radical (eg exception to the norm) the guy is the norm. And THIS is what's is problematic about faith. (Some reason the copy isn't quite working right.

i meant he was right about it being a christian concept... they've pretty much demanded governments not only stay out of, but; often cowtow to, their beliefs and the business that surrounds it...
There was a time it was more of a Muslim concept. Long long ago. May it never be 'long long ago' for Christians.
Jihad is conversion of the kuffar to Islam by the sword, plus you get some war booty, and some kuffar sex slaves A Christian attempts to convert by doing good works as an example of his faith
Your definition here does not fully embrace the complexities of the word. Jihad roughtly translates to struggle. It's to protect one's faith against those not of one's faith. Greater Jihad is the inner fight of a Muslim to understand God. A Jihad isn't only violent as there is also non-violent Jihads. ... You seem to have a simplistic Western News approach. Have you ever talked to or worked with Muslims? Christian history is littered with the bodies of people who didn't recognize these 'good works' so they were subjectated or killed. Christianity has no less of a violent history. It's just offset by a couple hundred years.
