Some Christians say a gay person who goes to church and believes in the divinity of Christ is not a true Christian because they are living in sin, according to scripture. Most sane people would disagree.

The Nice terrorist, unless he specifically did not consider himself to be a Muslim, was a Muslim. Being a 'bad' Muslim does not make you less Muslim. If you say you are that, then that is what you are. That's how religion works.

I have not heard/ read he was shouting " Allah....." While he was mowing down and spraying bullets into the crowds.

One would think the engine noise, screams of thousands of people and gunfire would have made any sounds he might have made inaudible.

Initial reports said the truck was full of guns and weapons. Reality is a bicycle and empty pallets were found.

Just cherry pickers, like everyone else.

You boys? That war was approved by the congress with wide support from both Republicans and Democrats, including your girl, Hillary!



Don't try to pin this on Bush and Cheney when Democrats had the power to stop it but instead, they voted for it. So your hands were just as dirty.

Just like the Orlando jihadist was not a true muslim. Even though ISIS came out and took credit for both attacks. Why does the media want to go out of their way every time this happens to to tell us it wan't about religion?
He accidentally yelled "Allahu Akbar" at the police per witnesses. He really meant "I'm a Quaker."

Why something like this never happened before?
What measures are there to prevent it? Probably spike strip around large gatherings?
It has happened before in Israel. With similar stories of brave police officers jumping on a moving vehicle to stop the terrorists

Rubbish, of course he was a Muslim. He was a Tunisian. Tunisia is 98% Muslim and Islam is the state religion there. The odds are very low that he was anything other than Muslim.

Plus, since when did Islam have a mandatory code of conduct? (Or Judaism or Christianity for that matter?) Just because he did things Muslims aren't supposed to do doesn't make him NOT Muslim.

Over in Uganda , Christians stone gay men to death and gang rape women suspected of being lesbian.

There are 40,000 and counting Christian denominations/ sects in the US. Some ( non mainstream) religious leaders have called for the death of gays and believe a wife is obligated to submit to her husband. The concept of spousal rape does not sit well with many churches. The Christian Identity Movement is all about race.

Reasonable people can distinguish between mainstream and radical Christians but when it comes to Islam, use a broad brush to paint 25% of the world's population.
