UNESCO declares Islam as the most peaceful religion of the world

[Losvienleg]

This is just a political game. I though UNESCO had some good things, since they were electing some true beauties to be preservated, but if they come in Socialists' game, they are to be destroyed, as this fake religion.

I guess their report is not to be taken literally as they try as to foster more peace in their report and I think its the right thing to do in the face of what is happening all over the world where the moment a Muslim is seen or even people from a particular place of the world then they are terrorist forgetting the Dubai which is the most tourist centre is also a Muslim dominated country. Although, a lot of people might disagree but the report is actually needed at this time of fragile relationship between Islam and other religions.

I am sure that the UNESCO report nothing more than a political statement. I have my own eyes. Islam is not a friendly religion and to me all Muslims are terrorists. In Islam Muslims can not even interpret Sura.

The United Nations and its sister agencies have lost all their importance. What is the point in declaring one religion as better than the others? It is not something that I expect the UN to do.

Unfortunately truth has no shades. It's either there or it's a lie. If Muslims are so aggressive you need to say. If such cases noticed, the Christians then you need to talk about this. What is the meaning to gloss over the facts.

[HabBear]

I don't understand how they could declare such an obvious lie. No religion can be peaceful least of all Islam, we have many Islamic terrorist all around the world. Islam and christianity provoked many wars in the past

This is very true. And Israel has promoted war or violence (who started it depends on perspective) with Palestine for decades...so Jews are not without their violence in the name of religion.

Hindu and Buddhists would be peaceful though, no?

It would be a mistake to try to discuss logically and honestly what is no more than a piece of political propaganda.

Islam is peaceful except when it isn't.

Which seems to be rather common, doesn't it?

"UNESCO has declared that Islam is the most peaceful religion of the world.

The United Nations body released a statement that revealed that UNESCO had partnered with International Peace Foundation six months back
to study all religions of the world and find out which was most peaceful amongst all.

When asked about the terror attacks being carried out in the name of Islam, the UNESCO official denied that it had anything to do with Islam.

Terror has no religion, Islam means peace."

It is an old news, but I happened to find it just now. So I want to ask, what is your opinion on that?

It reminds me of time when Barack Obama won the Nobel Prize...

Well i have to agree on this one islam is one peaceful religion they don't really harm people in any other way they will just focus on their beliefs and they don't even act upon on other religions like muslim they just don't really care about what will happened but they will just be in peace because they believe that they are the religion of peace and they are right for now they don't really harm i haven't heard from the news that they are bad persons and terrorism is not their goal but just to take peace in the world

I think that this would be way more reputable source Unesco denounces fake statement
Do not believe everything you read on the internet people.

The Internet really has a lot of opinions and these opinions allow you to make your choice. For me Islam is an aggressive religion and I don't care what you think of this site. Proof that what the terrorists shout Allahu Akbar.

Most of the major religion-based terror organizations (such as the ISIS and the Al Qaeda) take inspiration from the Islamic teachings. There may be a few terror organizations based on Christianity, Buddhism.etc., but they are less than 1% of the total.

For me personally, all Muslims are terrorists. They differ only by the fact that some Muslims are attacking openly call for Jihad, while others are waiting their time and disguised as good citizens. I don't trust them.

Peace is not about religion nor race. It's simply about respect and understanding.
Let's take the example of dispute between the UK and Ireland ... where religion plays a role? who the terrorists are and who the victims of terror?
It is precisely Islam that teaches a lot of mutual respect, mutual understanding, mutual helping fellow human beings, protecting the preservation of the earth and its contents.
For me ... mission that brought the terrorists are not religious mission, not Islamic mission.
Moslems or Christians maybe terrorists. Although No other religion that teaches its followers to commit terror. Crime humans based on religious attitude has existed since the time of Adam and Eve had their first offspring. That's the first act of terror on earth.
And now ... On behalf in the Holy War, Crusade, Jihad, in the end ridden by the rotten politicians, rulers be demons, using guile to the languages of religion to unleash the ambitions and greed.

[peter0425]

That is UNESCO's opinion. It doesn't mean the opinion of others. Respect is just want we need right now. We just need to respect its other and get along.

[_nur]

Islam is a verbal noun originating from the triliteral root s-l-m which forms a large class of words mostly relating to concepts of wholeness, submission, safeness and peace.

The Islamic terrorists follow the tenets of Islam and a majority of the Muslims believe in these tenets. For example, they believe that any person renouncing Islam must be killed. Even the educated Muslims in Western nations openly support this idea.

For me all Muslims are terrorists. If I see a group of Muslims in the shop that I will not come. And act so I'm not the only one. Shops and cafes will lose income and I think that soon they will no longer service. This is not good but they are to blame.

So are you going to boycott the shops just because they have Muslim customers? That won't be the right thing to do. In most of the countries, the shop owners can't refuse service to anyone based on religion or sexual orientation.

Any law can be circumvented. Cash breaks down or the product will end. You can think of many reasons to give to understand that they are not welcome. They themselves are to blame. I would support such methods.

there are certian things christians considers "terrorism" and muslims considers "not terrorism" as far as i know.
having just those huge monuments if christ is good for christians but not for islam. i believe its idolatry for them which needs to be destroyed. for christians, its art - sculpture, for muslims its blasphemy.

am I going somewhere with this?  thats what i've read from thier books though.

I'm an atheist and I'm not interested in any religious symbols. I always operate only with facts. I don't see any threat from people who consider themselves Christians and see the continuous aggression of the Islamists.
