Emerald Oracle


My name is Emerald Oracle. I'm what some say a 'Jack-of-all-trades' when it comes to the arts. I can draw, write, sculpt and photograph. I'm not the best, but I now what I'm doing.

"I'm going to assume you meant "or" in there, but I am against anything that would aim to restrict the basic rights of a person, including their religious beliefs."

Isn't that, in itself, a religious belief as well as indicative of the idea that you do affirm the readily identifiable existence of objective morality?

"I do not condone the actions of Radical Islamic people..."

There is no such thing as radical islamic people, only islamic people.

"but I know Islamic peoples as a whole are generally good men and women."

No, they aren't, as what's happening in Europe is demonstrating so clearly as well as 1400 hundred years of Islam trying to seize Europa, so please, take your non-evidential PC emotionalism elsewhere. And even if they are, they aren't 'generally good' enough to provide a bulwark against those that actually take their professed religion seriously and only serve as forest for the more dyed in the wool to hide in. As Europe is demonstrating, sometimes you have to burn the whole forest down or at least pluck it all up and send it to more suitable, native climates.

"In addition, the whole "godless Communism" thing is just propaganda used during the Cold War. Communism has little to do with religion, same as Capitalism."

Wrong. So wrong. Communism, like all early 20th Century Marxist ideologies entails the moral nihilism of atheism as one of its core starting points, hence why, Communist countries have such a poor track record of killing and suppressing (making western propoganda look tame and subtle by comparison) all who aren't godless commies whenever they took over. Certainly, its economic aspect where Government owns all the means of production and completely control their economy has little to do with religion just as Capitalism, but unlike Capitalism, Communism is far than just an economic system. Given this, your statement, if taken to mean Communism as a whole, as it seems to suggest, is incorrect. There's a reason commies had to invent liberation theology in attempts to subvert certain segments of the west.

"I don't personally think it works, but that's just my opinion."

Is your statement "I'm going to assume you meant "or" in there, but I am against anything that would aim to restrict the basic rights of a person, including their religious beliefs," itself an, opinion, or a truth claim? If the former, why should I or anyone care?

Then answer the question: are you for and against the complete and utter removal of Islam and godless Communism from the west?
