| | I am also interested to note that you are debating whether there is any successful Muslim democracy. I attempted to raise this question during the recent British election campaign and was treated like a leper!! My own view is that so far, there isn't one and this is a sign we would be foolish to ignore. Such a view is not acceptable to the liberal-left-wing-dominated media which controls discussion most of the time.[[User:HenriettaVanLaer|HenriettaVanLaer]] 11:47, 21 May 2010 (EDT) | | I am also interested to note that you are debating whether there is any successful Muslim democracy.

| | + | == Major Recategorization == |
| | + | |
| | + | I was looking at the debate topics list and noticing a lot of stuff is wrongly categorized. It looked way too hard to find anything so I took the liberty of doing a massive revamp of the page's categorization structure. Everything should be much neater now and easier to find. I kept the basic structure but added a lot of subcategories to make it very obvious where everything is. I tried to keep everything in about the same order it was already; keeping stuff listed near the top near the top. --[[User:Jzyehoshua|Joshua Zambrano]] 05:37, 3 September 2012 (EDT) |

| | + | == Atheists and Christians: Unlikely Allies? == |
| | + | |
| | + | I had this idea kicking around in my brain for a while about how Atheists and Christians might actually have more in common than meets the eye, and I thought this might be a good topic for discussion and debate. My reasoning goes something like this: both atheism and modern Christianity are products of Western thought, and both groups of people generally tend to uphold western values (freedom of speech, democracy, etc). Western values, the set of principles that we both hold most dear, are under attack by Islam. They reject democracies, freedom of speech and freedom of religion. These core western principles allow both Christians and atheists to hold their views without having to fear persecution. Islamists want to establish a worldwide caliphate, whereas Christians and atheists generally want to live in harmony with each other. Most atheists I know think Christianity is benign or even beneficial, but to them Islam is somewhat threatening. I wonder if Christians and atheists would make unlikely allies, united by a common opposition to Islamofascism. --[[User:Kennywillis|Kennywillis]] 15:16, 8 January 2014 (EST) |
