The letter "X" soon may be banned in Saudi Arabia because it resembles the mother of all banned religious symbols in the oil kingdom: the cross.
n a kingdom where Friday preachers routinely refer to Christians as pigs and infidel crusaders, even a twisted cross ranks as an abomination.

extremists in middle east does not = muslim culture nor the majority of muslim people
They aren't just a few of course, but if you think the majority of muslims are the extremists then you are delusional.extremists in middle east does not = muslim culture nor the majority of muslim people
Well its not just extremests if its deeply rooted in the culture and government.
You act as if its a few people. I know its not everyone, but its definitely the majority.
what do saudi's have to do with muslim culture, they teach to hate the other muslim countries in their history classes
The funny(sad?) thing is he is trolling not a game system but a entire group of people as a whole based on region and religion
You really, really need to shut the fuck up if you're trying to troll and you've fallen on your ass.
The governments own newspapers say that's a bunch of bullshit and my point wasn't how much the "religious welfare" of the citizens matter, but that they are taught to think that other countries are inferior, such as christian and even other muslim countries.

The situation of human rights in Saudi Arabia is generally considered to be very poor.
Saudi Arabia has also come under fire for its oppression of religious and political minorities, torture of prisoners, and attitude toward foreign expatriates, homosexuality, and women.
Freedom of speech and the press are restricted to forbid criticism of the government or endorsement of "un-Islamic" values.
Against a background of continuing gross human rights violations, the international community continued to scrutinize the country’s human rights record and the government enacted a number of laws that could have a positive impact.
Other people were arrested for trying to exercise their rights to freedom of expression and conscience.
In March ‘Abdul Muhsin Musalam, a poet, was reportedly arrested and detained for having written a poem entitled The Corrupt on Earth, which criticized judges in Saudi Arabia. His poem was published in al-Madina newspaper. The editor of al-Madina was subsequently dismissed apparently for allowing publication of the poem. ‘Abdul Muhsin Musalam was detained for approximately 14 days before he was released without being charged or tried.
In April ‘Abdul Hamid al-Mubarak, a 47-year-old professor at the University of King Faisal in al-Ihsa, was arrested in Dahran following demonstrations against Israel’s military attacks on Palestinians. The Deputy Minister of the Interior reportedly told Okaz newspaper that the professor was being held so that legal proceedings could be brought against him.
In July Sa’d bin Sa’id Zua’ir, aged 28, was arrested at Riyadh airport. He was apparently planning to travel to Qatar to be interviewed by al-Jazeera television in order to raise awareness of his father’s detention in Saudi Arabia. His father, Sa’id bin Zua’ir, a government critic and former head of the department of information at Imam Muhammad Ibn Sa’ud University, had been detained without charge or trial since his arrest in 1995. Both father and son remained held without charge or trial at the end of the year.
An incident attributed to the Saudi mutaween occurred on March 11, 2002, when they prevented schoolgirls from escaping a burning school in Mecca -- because the girls were not wearing headscarves and abayas (black robes). Fifteen girls died and 50 were injured as a result. There was widespread public criticism afterwards, both internationally and within Saudi Arabia itself.
I am curious based on your views, how did you think about the Muslim congressman who got elected this fall taking the oath of office on the Koran which caused quite a stir?
Just imagine if some country outlawed something sensitive to Muslims, or just told a simple joke about them. Massive violent uprising. Say what you will about stupid Christians, but give me a country full of stupid Christians over a country full of stupid Muslims anyday.
Our biggest "enemy" in the middle east:
As for the congressman , I have no problems at all with him (notice how he was elected, something you cant do in most muslim countries). It has nothing to do with this argument. Nice try though.
I said the government thought it was bullshit to let the girls die!
n contrast with most republics, the effective head of Iran's political establishment is not the president, but rather the Supreme Leader, who is a religious figure selected by an Assembly of Experts. Despite this, Iran's president fulfills many of the classical functions of a head of state, such as accepting the credentials of ambassadors.
No its not defendable and was a sick thing that happened. What is inexcusable is bashing muslims wide-spread. The majority of muslims are good and peaceful people, that is a fact.I said the government thought it was bullshit to let the girls die!
They can say its bullshit all they want. It still fucking happened. Its inexcusable, and the fact that you are defending it makes you pathatic.

Like I said before, this may be the case, but passive complacency is no exscuse.
Lets say me and phoenix dark lived in a house with 10 other college guys. What if every day there were 2 guys who always refered to him in a very offensive derogatory word (you know the one). Every day that malisiously called him that in front of everyone else. What if no one else in the house got mad about it. I mean they didnt call him any names or anything, they just dont do anything about it. How do you think Phoenix dark would feel towards the people who said nothing. Its obviously wrong.
PD called it something like a "far left scare tactic".PD supports John McCain, the biggest war supporter in Washington. You suprised? :lol

I actually really hate both. I don't think either will get a candidacy, so it's a non issue anyways.
No he says kill Hugo Chavez and pretty much anybody else he doesn't agree with.
Do you think gay people really care about that?Gay's don't mind having people hate them for the sheer fact of being gay?

That's like saying black people shouldn't mind white people hating them for being black as long as they don't try and kill them.
What's wrong with Hugo Chavez?
You don't have political sway and a sadly, extremely popular television outlet though do you?
I say bush should die all the time, does that make me bad?
"You say you're supposed to be nice to the Episcopalians and the Presbyterians and the Methodists and this, that, and the other thing. Nonsense. I don't have to be nice to the spirit of the Antichrist."
Oh, I wouldn't vote for McCain if my life depended on it. I just wouldn't vote for Hillary either.
