Buddist monks kill muslims!!!!

[Caesar dude]

And whatever the video is DB. It cannot be an answer or reasoned response to this thread surely!?

[Masked Dude]

I was trying to calm things down and keep things dudely, but I guess my attempt wasn't quite what I had hoped. With that in mind, I'm backing out of this or any controversial or hot-button topics from now on.

Later, dudes.

Personally, and I may be shunned by my fellow dudes for saying this, but FUCK muslims

I know several Muslims with a far more tolerant attitude than you are displaying! If it were up to you then I assume that any Muslim dudes here would be banned!

There is no way I would ban a member here for being muslim. Why do you think I would? Doing so would be very undude and undudeist. I am here to help out, clean up after the party and help to keep spammers and trolls out. I am certainly not here to ban anyone for being a muslim dude. A dude can be a muslim, as he or she can be a catholic, a pagan, a momon, a buddhist, an atheists, etc; being muslim does not stop a person from being a dude per se', neither does any religion with perhaps the exception of being a nazi, not sure how you could be a nazi and a dude, but that is an exception to the rule I guess I would say.

I think we judge people by their words and deeds, not by their chosen religious affiliation. As far as I am concerned, any muslim is welcome here as long as he or she abides in peace and respects other dudes and their opinions and feelings.

As for England and the growth of islam in Britain, I was referring to this kind of thing.......

I currently can't see youtube or any streaming videos...could you give me a synopsis of what you are linking to please.

It's a Muslim leader in Britain making a strong statement that Islam is not, and never will be, a religion of peace, but rather a religion of the sword. Of course, there are plenty of Muslims who disagree, but what he had to say is also part of popular Islam today. His point of view is shared by many Muslims today.

Well Dudes, this is getting pretty real,

It seems like everyone's trying to prove a point here, and thats cool, that cool... but I really hate to see everyone get all fired up about this. It also seems that there is really no way of proving either point as correct, and I don't think anyone is going to change their minds, no matter which side they're on. Its just a difficult argument to keep rational because we all have biases in the situation (Muslim friends and enemies) and also just because people have been killing each other for similar reasons for all of human history.

I'm just sayin, I don't think this is really going anywhere. Like I said, I don't think anyone's gonna change their minds on the topic. Can we just use that ole rebel shrug on this one?

One of the tenants of Dudeism, which I find very wise, is to express an opinion, and understand that your opinion, and those of others, while respected, are only like their (or your) opinion, man. That is to say, nothing is fucked here dude, just a few dudes talking about life and current events over a few beers, a few burgers. Nothing to worry about, our troubles are over, dudes, lets get us a lane.

Whow there dude! The quote isn't your's (unless you wish to associate yourself with it!) It's from Abeidist Dude!

The quote refers go this

Whoa dudes, did you actually read the story? 

It was the fucking MUSLIMS that incited the riot to begin with, and it was the MUSLIMS that beheaded a Buddhist monk which was the first killing that the Burmese monks retaliated for.

Personally, and I may be shunned by my fellow dudes for saying this, but FUCK muslims. And although I cannot condone the killing of innocent people, and I especially cannot abide by the murder of children, good god what were they thinking; I still believe the Burmese are taking a step to stop an even bigger world threat, which is the muslim religion.  These people want to fucking kill everyone who isn't muslim, they are always first to violence, they are always hateful and boasting, and they are liars. They openly admit in their own country and to each other, that anyone who is not muslim should be put to death, but the ones here in America or anywhere else in the world always claim "no no, that's the radicals" I'm just a good little muslim",  ( you would say the same shit if you were behind enemy lines or surrounded by enemies)  They are here in America, and are just evil people, period, boo on muslims, and I for one, am not leaving, I'm gonna drink my coffee, and any muslims can just kiss my glorious white American ass.

Why are you getting het up? Unless you are agreeing with him?

As for the youtube video you posted. I believe it was an American reporter from 2010 and the radical he was interviewing has already been deported! But I'm glad you're continuing to try and radicalise the issue! Even though I can assure you that there is very little racism or fear of an immediate take over of Islamic (or other) fundamentalists here in Britain at the moment!

Thank you for your continued concerned. Please start reading the Telegraph..or maybe the Times. It may inform you better.

Trust me, England is green and pleasant and we just won't stand for that sort of nonsense you know!

No worries, I was just being clear about that. Nothing is fucked, dude.

Ok cool.

I just don't want anyone to get upset. It's a pretty serious topic.

But hey, as long as everyone is cool 

And Righteous Dude, don't go please. We need you around

One of the tests of Dudeism is to see how we do in discussing important topics. So far, on this chat board, such discussions have gone extremely well in a dude like manner I am happy to say.

[Caesar dude]

I think you have my measure on banning people or censoring posts DB! I'm not in the least in favour of censorship! Remember the issue with "thatdickheaddude", or whatever?

I was trying to express to Abideist Dude that maybe his attitude would lead to banning muslims or blacks or jews or maybe even Scotsmen! (and that at least one of those conditions could fuck me up dude!)

I don't understand though why you took that to heart DB? Why would you think for a minute I was having a go at you?

Oh and BrotherShamus, If it gets a bit hot occasionally, treat it like a Scottish bar that you've just walked into. Say fuck all. Watch what people order. Then order the same. When the biggest guy in the bar asks you if you're ok, tell him with a grunt "I'm fine" if he doesn't hit you then all's well and enjoy your evening!

My bad, dude. I thought you were referring to me. All is well, mang.

Your words:

I think we judge people by their words and deeds, not by their chosen religious affiliation. As far as I am concerned, any muslim is welcome here as long as he or she abides in peace and respects other dudes and their opinions and feelings.

Then in the words of Abeidist dude

Personally, and I may be shunned by my fellow dudes for saying this, but FUCK muslims.

and

any muslims can just kiss my glorious white American ass.

and

Guess you never lost anyone to muslim terrorists.  Maybe you're one of them.

In my eyes these statements are simply not tolerant or abideing or dudeist in any way shape or form.

I wish to distance myself as far away as possible from these utterances as one can get!

I'm a Dudeist priest. I live as best I can a dudeist life. I try to do no harm and I try to abide. I cannot condone these statements and will not be associated with someone who embodies them.

Where do we go from here Dudely Lamma?

Yes, good points perhaps; but we all have some Walter in us, and sometimes people post things venting some anger or frustration that does not really represent their real character or even permanent opinions, so we have to, IMHO, look at a dude's long term comments to be sure we're not being too hasty. We have all posted things we had second thoughts on later.
