I have noticed in the last few weeks and months that very few debates on Islam have occurred, yet several questions on the validity of Christianity have been posted. All things have been debated – from the real-world abuse of children to various metaphysical conundra.
I have responded to several of these question and have been highly critical of the Christian faith, its supporters and its leaders. No one, so far, has rebuked me for doing so, nor have they called me childish names.
However, in the recent past when I have been critical of the Islamic faith, I have been accused of being ignorant, bigoted and in one memorable post, labelled “our resident Muslim maligner”.
What makes the supporters of Islam (on this website at least) so vehement, fervid, and intolerant of criticism?
Noah's Ark was big enough to hold two of every animal in the world (plus the species Noah sent extinct when he sacrificed one). However God instructed Noah to fit the Ark with a single window about two feet (600mm) square. Can you imagine what it smelled like after forty days?
Actually Beso, if I recall, Noah took seven pairs of some animals into the ark making the hygiene situation even worse than you imagine - but you're right in one respect. God loved a good barbeque!
