@SamHarrisOrg Do you dispute that suicide attacks and targeting innocents are both contrary to Islamic doctrine?

@DougJanack It all turns on how one defines "suicide" and "innocents." Clearly, jihadists have finessed the issue. -
@SamHarrisOrg@dougjanack reminds me of Marxist&Capitalists insisting the sequela of their ideologies are fault of merely "rouge" adherents -
@lt_diablo@SamHarrisOrg ...of the heinous acts of their extremist fringe? If I buy some of Marx's critique of Capitalism, am I Stalinist? -
@DougJanack@samharrisorg no but the doctrine itself is suspect.Marx claimed it was scientific dialectic/inevitable. Islam claims final word -
@lt_diablo@SamHarrisOrg All ideologies, including religions, evolve, and all have mixed records. Essentializing isn't meaningful. -
.
@DougJanack Have you "essentialized" my view of Islam? Perhaps my belief that it's dangerous and idiotic has nothing to do with what I say. -
@SamHarrisOrg You do acknowledge that Islamic scripture forbids both suicide and murder of non-combatants, right? - 1 more reply

@SamHarrisOrg do they know if the bombers played soccer? -
@mattyohe I can only hope that the NSA has been tracking the sales of soccer balls ever since Atran pulled the wool from our eyes. - 1 more reply

@SamHarrisOrg Please Mr. Harris, Islam is a religion of peace. I am sure that this will be found to be the work of brigands, in'shalah. -

@davidmc_@SamHarrisOrg David, you do realize that my line was for sarcasm don't you? I'm a quite active antitheist and quite anti-islam. -
@ThisOldHorn
@SamHarrisOrg outstanding!
