:sl: Is it because its shia based? Does that play a role in how you feel? America is trying to put us against each other they plant the terrorist and/or insurgents and the ill comments and we feed right in like puppets they are making us fight each other because they cant win with us united.:D
 
:sl: for starters its not a cobb out and what proofs do you have for facts and/or opinions?^o)
As for facts that I use to make an informed decision, The News.
CNN, BBC and al Jazeera for starters, some times India Times and once and a while Tokyo News and the Seattle PI.

As for proof, read my signature.

How much reality do you ignore?
 
:sl: Iran sends foods,finance,clothing, and aid to Iraq, Labonnon, and Palestine. This was also on the news the media I guess you didnt see that or do you not accept reality?^o)

Because it is Shia based? How many agnostics care what the religious base of anything is? Boy you have no contact with reality do you.
And once again the evil America is the cause of all problems.
Don't have to worry about not being able to "win with you united". You have been fighting and killing each other for 1400 years. I don't think unity is in the near future.

I'm beginning to see why you want to live in a theocracy. You can join the government and blame every one else for your problems.
 
:sl: just notice that you're agnostic so the benefit im looking for in this convo is not possible.:D
Really quick to notice things aren't you?
And of course there is no benefit communicating with an agnostic.

So you reject the News and reject all opinions different than yours.
You assign responsibility for all problems to others.

No wonder you think a theocracy would be peaceful.
 
:sl: I still dont blame others for my/our problems so dont put that on me I have alot of issues with in the folds of my people^o)

Boy, you can't keep your story straight. You clear that the US and Media was the source of the problems.
falsehood and a media stereotype
America is trying to put us against each other they plant the terrorist and/or insurgents and the ill comments
Why don't you open a new thread. Title it some thing like "Iran is a peaceful place and the US and Media are responsible for everything that is wrong".

Oh well we are way off topic. How about us going back on topic?
 
wait now they play a role but full blame no
Everyone plays a role. No country, no group is all good or all bad.
There are good Americans, there are bad Americans.
There are good Iranians, there are bad Iranians.
There are good Muslims, there are bad Muslims.
There are good Christians, there are bad Christians.
There are good Agnostics, there are great Agnostics. :D
 
:sl: well, look at Iran what is not peaceful about there? Plus we let america mess up our peace:p


I have a friend from Iran. I don't know maybe you are from there too and so know more about it than I do. But my friend was born and raised in Iran. Her family is all Muslim. She is too in public. But in private she admits to me that she really isn't anything. She is a biologist is what she is. And can you guess what she is working on? I shouldn't say as I wouldn't want to get her in trouble. But suffice it to say that she lives in Iran,and she loves her country, but there are several things about it that she finds not to be peaceful. These things were there years ago, not just because of the growing conflict between Iran and the USA.

I think its great that you have a friend from Iran.

I think we should all make an effort to befriend people IN Iran. If the people of the west and the people of Iran can form a bond, the governments of the two nations will not so easily be able to make war with each other. Get the citizenry of both sides to relate to one another and support for any armed conflict would plummet and fast.

I have made it a part of my own personal life ethic to cultivate friendships around the world. In addition to having family native to 6 countries, and living in 5 countries on three continents, I also have other good friends scattered slightly wider than that. I don't know that this makes me personally diverse, but I do hope it makes me more sensitive so that I seek to understand issues from just my potentially narrow point of view.
 
an islamic state is nice but if all religions just kept to themselves then other people would not know about islam so secular is better
 
I vote in " Other ".

actually .. I live in an Islamic country, but at the same time it's not theocracy.

I don't know why when you said theocracy the first thing I imagine is Afghanistan .. Taliban and this evil deeds that happened in the name of Islam.

my hope is to see an Islamic goverment .. that can apply the true teachings of Islam , that day I can vote in " Yes, but only if the state religion is my religion."

peace.

Could you describe the "Other" kind of government you would want to live in?
 
Salaam!

Good question, although I really don't know where I stand on this issue. On one hand, it will make a tremendously better Muslim, and on the other, I may not agree with the ideas they put forth. I really don't know what I'd choose to be honest.

W/Salaam
