Civ Fanatics Religion(or lack of) Poll

[Imperialmajesty]

What is your religion(or lack of)? When did you become said religion or non-religion?

Personally, I am a Atheist. I became one at the age of 14 after reading Why I am not a Christian by Bertrand Russel. Of course, it was not only him, but that essay was what finally pushed me to be an Atheist.

I'll laugh at all you atheists from heaven when you're all in hell, and I'm getting freaky with my 72 virgins.

But what if they're guy virgins?

i dont understand why i cant get freaky with them to.....

but since homosexuality is explicitly forbidden in the quran, i don't think god would give me 72 guy virgins and no women.

What do women get when they go to heaven in the Muslim religion? Or does Allah simply condemn the righteous women virgins that go to heaven to sexual slavery for the men?

Do I detect sarcasm?

There's nothing Islamic about that picture.

Yazidi, but with strong Chondogyo roots.

So Allahu Akbar is not an Islamic phrase? Well, I guess technically some Arab Christians use it also, but it is still a predominantly Muslim phrase.

I'm Jewish! Born and raised!

Its an Arabic phrase. "God is Greatest" is ambiguous.

Bull, sorry, I don't see many non-muslims's saying Allau Akbar. It is an Arabic phrase, but with strong Islamic backing.

That doesn't make it a Muslim phrase.

And how many non-Muslim Arabs do you know?

 

[Imperialmajesty]

What you are saying is analogous to saying that Khristos is simply a greek phrase derived from Hebrew. It is all those things, but carries a smothering Christian backing.

 

[potatokiosk]

That doesn't make it a Muslim phrase.

But still, there was something Islamic about that picture because the phrase is commonly associated with Islam.

Dude, seriously. I know you are trying to score forum brownie points by showing how clever you are. Would you admit that a person who is saying Allau Akbar is extremely likely to be a Muslim?
