To Harrak: the heart

Submitted by Richard Lion heart (United States), Mar 14, 2006 at 00:05

Harrak your comments about my nickname and the truth I tell on this forum are quite comical.
Let me quote you.

"Richard the lion's heart, we know the lion heart is nothing more than a muscle driven by nature not by intellect"

You know Harrak a lot of people in this world have intellect but have no heart, these people are known as intellectual cowards. Intellectuals who have heart are the ones who make our world turn. They are the ones who stand up to dictators and tyrants and defend those who can't defend themselves. Great figures like Winston Churchill and Martin Luther King come to mind. These men they did not only have intellect, but they also had the heart to stand up to facist and racist. Nelson Mandela had the heart to endure 28 years in prison to defeat aparthied.

I'm sure Harrak, you prefer the intellectual cowards. I wonder why? I think I know why. You would like us to say the Koran is divine when it's not. You would like us to say Muhammad is a true prophet when is not. Only intellectual cowards and idiots would ever give a stamp of approval to Muhammad. When it comes to denouncing Muhammad and the Koran, my mouth will definitely be like a pop corn machine.

Don't get mad at me if the koran condones slavery and homosexuality, I call it as I see it. Can you explain why there is still slavery in the sudan and Mauritania? I'm sure you will find some way to go around the issue.
