    Punk rock is truly universal; seeing these kids in Motörhead shirts is inspirational…merging faith with music is itself uplifting.

      How is it uplifting?
      No intelligent individual would ever believe in fairy tales.
      Faith is ignorance, with or without music.

      In theory, this is not even allowed in their religion since all of music for them is satanic

    ''Shariah Law in the USA'' maybe won't be covered by Megadeth, yet as a cultural find it's as hard-hitting as the original that inspired it, penned by that squire Lydon so many moons ago. In fact, in the UK, it's already there. ''You doubt me?''(says I quoting Mr Rice from the mile-high-city). In a nutshell, this is fascinating and scary at the same time. Mosquee Moon!.

    41:36 - This begs the question, why follow something when you know the majority of it is horseshit? Picking and choosing what you find ''cool'' just means that you're a hypocrite either way. Totally unnecessary and superficial adherence to Islam.

      What's pointless is following something that first and foremost, isn't true, and secondly following something that you don't even believe in.
      If one wants to commit themselves to fairy tales, that is their right, in most countries in the world. However, claiming to be something, and then simply expressing free will only makes you a hypocrite, nothing else.

      One of the most moronic slogans in history.
      The Quran is very clear and specific on a lot of aggression and violence, and doesn't nearly condemn all of it. I'd say that it's a religion of hate, like all other Abrahamic Religions. Religion just a tool to make ignorant sheep obey.

    I hate that feeling when you talk to the people in mosques and they welcome you but then tell you that you have to spread their message to everybody in your family like one of those slimy sales dudes trying to sale fridges to people in Inuits. All this working with lovebombing and guilt… you cannot be mad at them because it’s normal for most people but I wished mosques were more about listening than lecturing
