the existence of Caesar, Jesus, Alexander the Great, Xerxes Muhammed, Ramses, David, etc. Just scribbles, legends and mythology mixed with perhaps a tiny bit of fact. We don't know shit about ancient history.

There's no ham a cheeseburger. Hamburgers are named after Hamburg, a pure German city.

So if anyone disagrees with you they're immediately an islam basher, it doesn't matter that Algebra and 0 were developed in India or that the Caliphates just conquered all the cities and technology from the Byzantines.

It's not about the ham, it's about mixing meat with dairy. (You'd think people who lived in a desert would be less picky about what they ate
)

 yes by Muslims.

And that isn't what i meant. Everyone seems so quick to point out any bad points they can about Islam and ignore the good side. Comparatively speaking Muslims have done shit all harm to the world, yet they cop the most shit. Fuck, i took my sister(who wears hijab) to the mall the other day, and some guy came over and told us that he'd kill us if no one was around. this isn't the first time this kind of thing has happened. And just because something bad is done by a Muslim doesn't mean they did it in the name of Islam. Chechens for example, were Muslims, fighting the Russian government. They were fighting for the independence of their nation. Al qaida and Hamas are similar too.

>>44 I don't understand the mixing meat and dairy thing but i'm sure there is a reason behind it. I know we don't eat pork because it contains parasites. Health standards were not as good back then.

Parasites are hardly a swine-exclusive innovation.  And people can get hella sick from all sorts of improperly handled meat -- try chowing down on some raw halaal chicken one of these days if you don't believe me.

Muslims don't eat pork because God says not to eat pork, He is under no obligation to explain why.  Your logic has no place in religion.

So you allowed a racist to phase you and now feel the need to make outlandish claims about Islam? I feel sorry for you bro, let me fill you in on some basic psychology I figured out when I was bullied when I was 11.

Humans have the same driving emotions as pack animals, hubris is the surfacing of the evolutionary need to be a pack leader and depression and fear are a set of instincts to make you decide whether to flee or fight when confronted with a challenge from an alpha.

There are 3 ways to deal with this, passively, assertively or aggressively. You can do nothing, you can meet their challenge or you can act like a human instead of a pack animal and approach them unphased, make it clear you're not going to play their little game then go about doing whatever you were doing as if nothing happened.

Is racism the same as petty schoolyard bullying? Yes. It is. The civil rights movement wasn't won by being a pussy bitch, retreating into insular black nationalist groups and pretending blacks invented everything, it was won by making calm rational statements and letting the hicks chimp out over them and make a fool out of themselves.

Also Aryabhata died in 550 AD, 82 years before Muhammed was born, and Brahmagupta wrote his laws about 0 in 628, 4 years before Muhammed was born.

hey you were right, i thought Aryabhata was just an astronomer.
I knew Algebra was invented in India, but i didn't think it was till like around 820AD (which is when Islam had reached India)

i still maintain my point that people refuse to accept any good that comes out of Islam (>>20 or >>46 for example). and when presented with a reasonable explanation usually reply with a "no u" level response.

and as for dealing with racism. Usually when i am by myself, i deal with these people by ignoring them. the less i respond the less they feel like they have accomplished something.

Me being >>46 , I have to wonder what exactly problem you had with my post.  It's not like I made any attempt to "refuse any good that comes out of Islam", I merely pointed out a fundamental flaw in the logic of your claim.  This flaw not only rendered the quoted statement dubious at best, but significantly lowered the credibility of the rest of your arguments.

do you honestly think people who live in the desert would restrict their diet for no reason?

Do you honestly think "Because the all-mighty creator of the universe said so, and we respect Him for that.  And even if we don't respect Him for that, He still has the ability to cast us all into levels of torment unimaginable to mere mortals were it His whim to do so" counts as 'no reason'?

I don't think it says anywhere you can't eat ham to begin with.

its forbidden in the Torah. Its also just a cultural thing in the middle east. People knew which meats had a greater chance of containing parasites.

It's also Christian.  They need it so they can remember all the laws they don't think they have to follow anymore.
