The thing is, it is normal in a conversation, but to me it feels a bit weird in a song. But I don't think it's offensive at all and I'm glad you agree.

Yes. And although you probably think I side with the club, I don't. I would not be particularly offended as a muslim though. I mean, what's the problem here? Muhammad does know his football? The real issue here is that it is common in a lot of Christian countries to talk that way about your...

Of course. Religion is part of the human nature. It's very good for creating groups for instance. Us against them. Believers versus non believers. And in a society it is/was important to have groups. But in a modern society there are better social activities. A football team is a better group...

Einstein was a very liberal Jew. Religion was a minimal affair at best.

Yes. Good point. Only atheists say they are. It is not a mere coincidence that Turk, a blind muslim, would kill an Inter fan in the blink of an eye.

The thing is that if you look at the facts, it was peculiar to say the least. The CIA funding Al Qaeda. People knowing about the attacks several weeks before. The way the towers collapsed. The government doing pretty much nothing to explain these things.. And then look at what happened after...

You know, I think these scientists missed some of the other benefits of fasting: you are way more unlikely to have food poisoning too!

So they found that if an obese person eats less, it is good for him. Wow. Of course fasting is good for the hearth and of course you're not likely to develop diabetes if you fast. But that doesn't really tell you anything. And it sure as hell doesn't say anything about athletes and fasting...

It is far more alarming that we have muslims in the 21st century. Where does this come from? We have people who believe in stoning, people who claim that Islam is the only truth and that we should accept this OBJECTIVE truth. All this in an era where we send people to the moon, cure a lot of...

Who gave muslims that right ;)?

True, but Islam isn't one of them.

I got a -rep for this post? Now I really want an explanation from the muslim who did that. I don't care about the -rep, hell I get them all the time, but I find it pretty weak. Present your argument, fellow.

Islamophobia? Really? You present your argument like that and you're surprised that people think muslims are big M's? Mental acceptance of the truth, huh. Interesting choice of words you have there. More to the point though: YOU make your own moral choices. Islam does not do it for you. YOU...

No, you're wrong. It can mean both things. Sometimes fasting means not eating at all, sometimes it means you can't eat some foods. I assumed you meant not eating at all.

If you don't eat for a week, you're sick. It is not the way to become healthy.

That's not what muslims do. They fast an entire day and then they eat all they can. Any doctor will tell you that that's not good for the body.

No, it's not. If you don't eat, you'll get weak. If you get weak, the body starts to invent things. This way you don't have to deal with your pain. You start seeing things. This so called spirituality you get from not eating is merely a protection mechanism of the body. It's like being high...

Van Persie? He's not a muslim. His wife is, but Van Persie specifically said he wasn't muslim. He said you had to believe in order to be a muslim and that he could not believe.

A football club is the same as every other organisation. You see, the man in the weelchair doesn't get to do all the jobs either. Juventus don't have to hire him as a soccer player. Companies that want him to do hard labour that involves walking around don't have to hire him either. It's not...

It seems to me that some muslims don't know the first thing about football. The only reason Sissoko played during last year's ramadan was that he wasn't bloody awful.That's what the coach looks at: performance. If Sissoko's performance goes down, there are no excuses. Sissoko can't go up to...
