"Islamist" lol you tried it. They might be Muslims but they're not doing it by the name of Islam, if they were Christians would you say "Christian..."? No. They're all civilians who wanna keep their country stable and they think they're doing the right thing. Though I'm glad the military failed.

You know, Ive often come across people saying "Christians were no better -> look at the crusades" and you are right. The Islam and the countries that live under its influence are on the same level like Christians states used to be back during the 13th century. It's destructive.

omg, those links were do disturbing! just lost faith in humanity... where is this world going??

An honest question:

Is there a country that has truly flourished under the Islam? I'm honestly curious, because all I've come across is that most countries that were overthrown by muslims completely evolved in the wrong direction aka backwards.

you damn right I would call them christians because they identify as one and they did it in the name of their religion.

nice to see you showing your true colors.

The "exercise" claim is still rampant. What if..

Were all communications lost? Twitter, Facebook, etc. But what about local mobiles, military-police coordination?

May have well been a blackout to stage an uprising just to further political interests 🤔

I don't like conspiracies but this getting dodgy..

Those photos and that video , I just don't know any more tbh.

The pictures are devastating. It's even sadder because the soldiers opposed to attacks civilians.

You dont seem to rationalize like a normal person. Calm down.

Not really

Even the most advanced Islamic countries lean towards liberalism.

This is disgusting...

The only thing this proved is how blindly so many people are following Erdoğan and will do so no matter what.

They ENJOYED killing for him. Just disgusting.

So yesterday some of y'all were yelling I hope they behead Erdogan and now it happens to the soldiers and y'all crying. Hypocrites!

The only good "moslems" are honestly mostly "Alevis", they're not as strict as the regular muslims (sunnis), they don't go to the mosque and women and men are being treated equally and also they don't cover their bodies with anything (not counting clothing of course ). They don't believe in the Quran and they don't follow anything the sunni's follow (the ones you know as the regular moslem).

Most Sunni's, including Erdogan, can't stand Alevi's though because we don't represent the "regular" islam. They don't want us to be associated with the islam.

I'm proud to be an Alevi but unfortunately we are the minority in Turkey. Only 10 million Alevi's live in Turkey, the rest (40 to 60 million) are sunni or other.

I just can't process how freaking DUMB you have to be to kill someone because of your imaginary "god". I hate religion so damn much. Definitely the greatest source of evil and hatred.

This.

if you're gonna use this argument, make sure the same user/s who said such thing/s are being hypocritical

Well, the persians and the zoroastrians had some great free writers that Islam now takes as theirs but they treated them like **** back in the day. Kind of like if the Church said Spinoza's writing was proof that religious societies flourished.

Some straight men are willing to do anything to get down with 72 virgins in a huge garden. And it's been that way for centuries

I do, it just makes me incredibly angry to read sth like this. I'm not even mad at the user, I'm mad he was made believe that this is an "ok" thought. In my opinion, it just shows so very much.

The fact you support this view says it all. You view a critique towards your religion as not understandable. You basically refuse to see what's wrong with it or at least its teachings. Lost case.

Poor innocent lives that didn't ask for anything but freedom, happiness and rights.

And MESS at religious people asking atheists to act "more civilized"

They're monsters who are murdering people who have already surrendered.
