If this is the dirty horrible thought process involved within that religion then they need to piss off back to whence they came until their thought process actually contains an element of logic.

Which religion? Why is everyone on this site always using every excuse to accuse Islam of being at the root of all evil The people that did this were Slovaks. Perhaps they are Slovak Muslims. When I worked there I have to say I didn't see much sign of Muslim extremism. But then I also didn't see or hear of any acid attacks either.

If no, which ones are not?

This isn't a thread about my philosophy It is about an attack, probably using acid, by what appears to be an angry controlling husband presumably having paid hired thugs to use the most frightening weapon they could conceive. It also isn't a thread about your perception of Islam But, for the record, I am not stupid enough to assume that all Islamic creeds are the same. The Sunnis and Shias parted nearly 1,400 years ago. Salafists sprung up in the 19th century. When you talk of Muslims which are you asking about? Do you think the Amish, Baptists and Catholics are effectively the same people, they are all Christian. Your antipathy to Muslims is just about you, not about Islam itself. It results in you picking a fight with 1.8bn people. Good luck with that one. To you no doubt each is the same. Try finding a Muslim and talking to him or her about football, they are just ordinary people.

Are there any aspects of Islam that are not acceptable?

You notice that the progressives don't have such issues when it comes to referring to what they think is the far right. But suddenly when it comes to Islam.....out comes the nuance. Those points are rubbish anyway. What matters is the attitude towards integration, where the allegiance lies and attitudes towards western values. He can't point to any difference between the socially conservative sects in Islam towards these matters......The reformist sects like Sufism....a branch that is perfectly acceptable...just like secular Islam is.....Well Sufism is a tiny sect in Islam and it's prosecuted across the Islamic world.

Defending any or all actions or attitudes by continuing to repeat that not all Muslims are the same is illogical and reductive. It is exactly the same type of reasoning that they accuse others of.

And here is in your first sentence the problem I neither provided my philosophy on religion nor my opinion on Islam. You will find I have never defended Islam, nor given an opinion on it. The only opinions I provided was that Hrolf seems to have a personal issue with Islam and that I have found Muslims to be ordinary people, not the Devil incarnate. But then I have only worked for prolonged periods in a few Muslim countries, I do not profess to be an expert. Edited by Mapletree (27 Jul 2018 9.21am)

Roma gypsies originate from India & pakistan, their religion is split evenly between Christian, Muslim & Hindu. Having seen a few roma camps up close in Slovakia, its a bit of an eye opener as to the utter s*** holes they live in, proper shanty Town stuff. The thing about the Roma's I've spoken to (as well as the Slovaks who live close to the roma camps) - as a bloc they refuse to integrate, they're committed to holding onto the good & bad within their culture & really don't give a f*** about the law or anyone else. Plenty of money is thrown at them each year with very little progress made & this is a huge reason why there is a central European alliance of countries that have told the EU to get f***ed over immigration quotas. Mostly back on topic. Import the 3rd world & you're going to get the 3rd world.

Any opinion by anyone is 'personal'. Your personal issue seems to be that you keep accusing others of demonising Islam but you are never prepared to state your position on the aspects of it that fully deserved to be criticised by anyone who wishes to uphold Western values or even basic human rights.
