In my view after seeing all three episodes, this programme is trying to promote to the world that religion and religious people are nothing but trouble, they are trying to promote atheism.

What? Promote atheism? :?
Da, Christiane Amanpour is a devout Christian. :thumbs_up

Religion has always been a source of problems. It just suits you better to shuffle it off on "Evil Atheists". :rollseyes

Where did it ever say "Go Atheism!"?

To be honest the documentary was biased in the sense that it let a few radical extremists represent the three major religions, hence giving a bad name to all three religions. This in turn gives a negative viewpoint to the religious non practising people. How long before they find themselves becoming an atheist which is also a religion in my view, but atheists hate to admit that.
Although I like the fact that the documentary shed light on what people think and get upto in various parts of the world.
The documentary was unfair on all three religions, as it let Israel represent judaism, america represent christianity and iran represent Islam.
A genuine documentary of this type requires years of research and a broader view.

You obviously missed the whole point of the documentary.

Read the title. Think about it for a min. Concentrate on the word "Warriors".
Read the title again. Maybe this time you will get it. :skeleton:
 
well, i watched god's jewish warriors on youtube last night. i thought it was pretty good.
so far, this is the only one i've seen of the series.
noble,
i think the documentaries were just trying to show that there are religious extremists in all 3 religions. this in no way implies that there are also not decent people in all 3 religions. but these docs were about the "warriors" in each.
(if anything maybe it's good for people to see that muslims don't have a monopoly. for example, i think a lot of people don't even realize that there are jewish terrorists.)

CNN tried to pretend that christianity and judaism make so many terrorists as islam do. So they showed few Jews who commited crimes in the name of God, few christians who destroyed abortion clinics. Well, thats all i guess, its sum up about 10, maybe 15 people together. Yeah, those christian terrorists really make me scared :mmokay:
 
well, i haven't seen the muslim or christian episodes yet.
there are plenty jewish terrorists in the occupied territories. they are every bit as good as their muslim brothers! i thought that segment was good.
aaron, i think it is the same mindset. at any time in history there may be more in one group and less in another. but the mentality is the same whether the individual terrorist is a jew, muslim, christian or hindu. (there are hindu terrorists also). the religion may be different but the the mentality is the same. for that matter there have been terrorists who act in the name of a political ideology - so it is not unique to religion either.
don't forget the program isn't saying that religion is like this. just that all religions have their um... more dreadful specimens. :D
 
perhaps the series just missed the Haganah - Irgun, Lehi Stern Gang.. who have committed countless terrorists acts up to and including bombing the British 'good will' ambassadors that came to help them establish their colonial settler state.. plus various countless other acts from bombing of the SS liberty to the lavon affairs, to bombing of king David hotel.. I didn't watch the program personally.. I hope they would have in the least mentioned the above? just a handful indeed.. so many poorly and insufficiently educated fools on this forum.. I am guessing by choice?
 
well, they only had 2 hours! ;D
they did cover baruch goldstein and some of the other gems among the settlers, including the ones that bombed a palestinian girls' school as well as the nuts who planned to blow up the dome of the rock.

Ok but didnt Amanpour noticed that great majority of christians in USA and Jews in Israel condemned using violence in divine name? I mean those christians who blowed up abortion clinics arent seen as martyrs or heroes even by fundamental christians. Majority of Jews, also orthodox condemned rabbi Cahane or Goldstein for their acts.
 
as i said, i haven't seen the christian episode yet. yes, she did point out that most jews are against this. (though in my opinion most jews are not critical enough of israel). anyway, i hope she will point that out in the other 2 segments as well.
there are more muslim terrorists in operation at this time in history for many reasons. christians have done their share in history. jews hadn't for a long, long time until the zionist movement. and irreligious people have done their share too.
terrorism is terrorism.
the way i see it is that the series is about people who kill in the name of their religon. if there is no religion, people will kill in the name of a political ideology just as happily.
what makes people rationalize something as heinous as blowing up a school and believe that they are doing it in the name of some righteous cause?

yanal, it is a 6 hour series run by CNN about religious extremism/terrorism.
1st night is jews, 2nd muslims and 3rd christians. that is why the thread is called "god's warrirors" - people who kill in the name of god. that was the name of the program.
i wouldn't have watched it but there was so much discussion here that i finally watched the 1st segment (jewish warriors) on youtube.
as for a kid watching it, i don't think you'll see anything that you haven't seen on the news.
but there's probably something better and more uplifting you could do with your time. :D
i just got so curious, i had to watch it.

JazaKAllah Khayr ok but is it really 6hours no way not watching it but when the muslim part comes after how much time?
 
http://youtube.com/results?search_query=god's+warriors&search=Search
you'll have to search through to find each segment. if you watch the muslim one, you should really watch the other 2 as well so you see bad jews and bad christians as well as bad muslims. but it's 6 hours all together (2 for each religion).
but do you really wanna watch a bunch of bad people doing bad things?
normally, i would find better things to do, but i got nosey cuz there's been so much discussion here.
it isn't especially cheerful or anthing. as i said you can probably find a better way to spend 6 hours. but the youtube posts are in small 9 minute bites so you don't have to watch them all at once.
 
The Christian God's Warriors is so biased...

Why when it's about Jews and Muslims, they travel all over the world...but for Christian God's Warriors they only concerntrated in USA... Why? Is it because there are no Christian God's Warriors in other countries?

And the "terrorist acts" shown for Christian God's warriors just abortion clinics being blown up.

How about National Liberation Army of Tripura, Lord's Resistence Army, Ambonese Christians etc?

How about Loula Abboud, a 19-year old Christian Lebanese girl who blew up herself in front a group of Israelis in 1985?

I had the same impression. If a neutral person saw all 6 hours, (s)he is going to come out hating Jews and to a bigger extent Muslims.

Conclusion: A master stroke by the Evangelist

edit

BTW how did England deal with and stop IRA? by making its leaders government ministers and giving them freedom to rule themselves.

on the other hand how do they deal with Saudi terrorist? they destroy Afghanistan

how do they deal with terror masters of Iran, Syria and Lebanon? by destroying Iraq the only country that kept under control the Shi'ite monster next door

what a twisted world!

It was like I mentioned the other day the christian one was more then bias it painted the extremists as heros as oposed to islam which they viewed as terriorists...see the christians in ireland (2 diffrent branches) have been fighting for years and its very violent but they never showed that, unless a person who lived there told me themselves i would have never known.

remeber its CNN ...its American... White Christian American and i dont mean it in a racist way just stating there largest target audience
