Living with the Enemy on SBS

[ufo_investigations]

I just watched LIVING WITH THE ENEMY on SBS.  The story about Ben the Aussie going to live with Lidia and Ahmed the muslims. Lidia is an Aussie and was raised Catholic and converted to Islam. Ahmed was born in Saudi Arabia.

What did I learn?

- Muslim women wont shake hands with a male person their not related to. (Very rude).

- When husband and wife muslims pray in their own house, the wife has to pray behind her husband. (Women are not treated as equals even in their own house).

- Christians are not allowed to visit Mecca in Saudi Arabia. Why? Because you have to be muslim to be allowed.

- Mosques can be built all over Australia but we can't build a Church in Saudi Arabia.

- The Quran tells muslims to kill people.

- In the mosque women are behind the curtain at the back. It's their own area. Why? Because the men have to be in a different section. Why? To give women privacy. This is the reason they cited. The real reason I believe is not to cause desire in the men.

- When they went shopping they visited a halal butcher to buy lamb shoulder. Ben wasn't consulted. What if he wanted pork chops?

- They went to Bondi to do an "Aussie thing called surfing". Lidia went swimming in her full Islamic clothing then when she came out of the water she placed a towel around her depicting the Australian flag.

I agree with you wholeheartedly.

New testament. Old testament. It matters not. Both are still available.

And so are the texts of many older and different reiligions. The old testament is pre-Christian. it just got included in our current day Bible because it suited the purposes of the then powers that be. The new testament is the Christian text and stands alone, not depending on the old testament, which, in fact, describes a different god, or at least a god which has different attributes.

it matters to christians !!!

it would be like saying shia. sunni. it matters not.

back to basics for some so will

leave you with some reading:

Christianity (from the Ancient Greek word Χριστός, Christos, a translation of the Hebrew מָשִׁיחַ, Māšîăḥ, meaning "the anointed one",[1] together with the Latin suffixes -ian and -itas) is an Abrahamic, monotheistic[2] religion based on the life and oral teachings of Jesus of Nazareth as presented in the New Testament.

Not quite true, Jesus was a Jew and followed Mosaic Law. 

""Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. Matthew 5:7

[iapetus_rocks]

Even the new testament is post-Jesus.

Something like 70 AD at best for the earliest gospel and no copy of a gospel which currently exists pre-dates the 4th century.

Anyway, my point was that it's no use appealing to Judaic old testament writings to illustrate the teachings of the new testament Christainity.

i have been thinking for a few years about getting/making a burqa for myself.

i get a lot of fun out of a mozzie bite. if it's a "bad" mozzie it's 3 weeks of fun. it swells up to 15 cm diameter, 2 cm high, itches like hell ALL the time and when it stops itching after about 2-3 weeks it turns into a purple blotch and looks like my hubby is beating me savagely.

you know these "hats" that are like a little tent above your head (looking like an umbrella) to keep the sun off?

i thought if i combine that with a burqa i might be safe from mozzies.

[ui_au2014]

...after watching ufos vid where intolerant muslim men tore off other peoples burqas i am a bit scared.

i am 5 foot no inches and i think i would only dare  to wear a burqa standing next to a police officer.

[ui_au2014]

...yes i use mozzie repellant. they do not give a damn. *cry smiley*

i hate them.

[ui_au2014]

i am sorry you don't have to read my whingeing, just scroll past  it NOW...or read on.

mozzie bites are a big thing to me.

sometimes i get bitten by a good mozzie, it itches for a few minutes then it's gone.

if a "bad" mozzie bited me it's hell on earth for 3 weeks and it limits me. i can not be outside when there is no sun. i can not be outside when there is full sun but no wind...or cloudy sky.

sometimes i defy and  go out anyway cos i don't want to be a prisoner and then i always regret it for the next few weeks....

apart from being scared bleepless of mozzies i would like to be able to wear a burqa until i enter the pub and then drink a beer without being hassled by muslim men for doing so.

i think we need to decide if there is a freedom of wearing whatever you want for whatever reason or not.

if muslims demand the right to wera burqas so do i demand to wear one if i want to.

same rights for everyone, no bleeping double standards!
