Still you blame it on the west, even after they have massacred dozens?

Obviously they have no mercy for those who insult their prophet, live in the same country or just have a diffrent religion.

The only way you can get around their ignorance is to make them aware of it. Admitting that the cartoonist made a mortal mistake and deserve to die isnt the solution st0lve. Its idiocy.

The biggest mistake we made was to tell them this whole thing is a flaw in of western society.

It was the salt in their wounds

hes got "the angles"

Quote from The Postman

I prefer to look at it as a kind of "last straw that broke the camel's back." It's a fucking shame that it's led to this, but you must admit that antagonization by the West (Italian politician saying he'll wear a shirt with the cartoon, reprintings, etc) hasn't helped.

You make it sound like the poor muslims are always pestered and finally fight back.

Quote from Lurker

The cartoons were the spark that ignited the fire. What goes around comes around, and that goes to both sides in this argument.

Are you saying they will stop rioting and start drawing cartoons about us?

and the ironic truth of the cartoons

Because the riots are still going and the other one is locked, here is a new one.

The latest news:

India minister and muslim scholars call for the beheading of Danish cartoonists and a reward of 10 million dollars. Im almost tempted myself.

"Nigeria cartoon protests kill 16"

At least 16 people have been killed in northern Nigeria in violent protests over by Muslims over the cartoons depicting the Prophet Muhammad.

Eleven churches were burned during the riots in Maiduguri, the capital of the north-eastern state of Borno.

Soldiers have been deployed and a curfew imposed, police say.

These are the first violent protests over the cartoons in Nigeria, whose population is nearly equally split between Muslims and Christians.

Residents in Maiduguri described demonstrators running wild after police tried to disperse the protest with teargas.

Some were deliberately targeting the city's Christian minority.

"At least 10 churches, some hotels, more than 20 shops and over 10 vehicles were burned by the protesters," one resident told Reuters news agency by telephone.

Another resident said "most of the dead were Christians beaten to death on the streets by the rioters", according to the Associated Press news agency.

Violent clashes

State governor Modu Sheriff said the state "was shocked and disgusted" by "the civil disturbance" in Maiduguri.

At least 15 died in the city, while one person was killed in similar riots in north-central Katsina state.

Around 115 people were arrested in Maiduguri and 105 in Katsina, a police spokesman said.

The cartoons, first published by Danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten in September, have angered Muslims across the world and sparked sometimes violent protests.

In Libya, at least 10 people died in clashes with police outside an Italian mission on Friday, during a rally over an Italian minister's decision to put the cartoons on T-shirts.

The minister, Roberto Calderoli has resigned, and Libya's interior minister has been suspended as the country investigates the violence.

The cartoons, which have since been reprinted by several other European publications, include an image portraying Muhammad with a bomb in his turban.

Islamic tradition strictly prohibits any depiction of Allah or the Prophet.

fucking ahsum!!!!!!!!

You can also join the police or start your own gang to cleanse the area

instead of rotating the whole map, rotate the players view. It would b relatively easy to code i think but then again i know nothing about coding

Quote from mawibse

Oh... So you dont think free will is possible with "just" the brains making the decisions?

It is only logical that its not

Quote

Well there are some really big stumble blocks of free will for me even if you add a soul to the equation.What makes the souls decisions more "free" then the brains?

IF there is a soul then the possibilities are endless. It could be fully conscious of itself. But its more likely that free will is just an illusion of our subconsciousness. Just look at animals, the thought of being robots never crosses their minds

Quote from mawibse

Nothing, if you think that sleep deprivation is torture then fine, then we torture.

But I'd like to point out that sleep deprivation is a long step from pulling fingernails and electro treatment to testicles, at least in my book.

Sleep deprivation AKA unlimited solitary confinement in rooms filled with strobing lights and white noise, naked, exposed to extreme heat and cold and chained in positions that are designed to cause maximum stress on the muscles . After 5 minutes you will wish they pulled your nails out. The only step down the ladder is there are no visible scars

Quote from mawibse

Like I said before, why would I need to imagine a non-physical entity that makes me conscious, have thoughts and make my decisions when the brains, according to most scientists and cognitive researchers, does it fine already?

To philosophise about free will

Quote from mawibse

Well that sounds really tough n all but... I dont believe it for a second.

Ok maybe not, but those psychological tricks are just a little step down the ladder of horror

but why is it in russia? with palmtrees?

Quote from mawibse

That the soul somehow makes the decision instead of the brains is to me is a totaly unfounded notion. Nothing but my imagination would support such an idea.

But you dont know what the soul is do you?

Assuming there is a part of the brain that makes our decisions and is the root of our egos, what would you call it? The soul?

Quote from Scraps

Then you have no basis for discussing philosophy.

http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=philosophy

Investigation of the nature, causes, or principles of reality, knowledge, or values, based on logical reasoning rather than empirical methods.

Id rather have my nails pulled out than my mind dying of white noise and sleep deprivation

aint that one of bluestrikes maps?

i forgot, what was the twist thing?

nice models
