Except it is. Jihad has two accepted meanings in Islamic teachings. The second meaning, the 'lesser jihad', is the 'physical struggle against the enemies of Islam'. While a minority of scholars disagree, it is largely considered a militant term and a violent meaning/use of the word. Hense 'holy war'.

The 'greater Jihad' CAN be violent, but isn't necessarily.

No. Who ever gave you that idea is wrong. A minority of scholars disagree? How about every ******* sane muslim?!

The Jihad is one thing and one thing only: The struggle in doing good.

Examples are: Praying to Allah, helping people in general especially at your own cost, being healthy and avoiding temptation that leads to unhealthy habits and traits, repressing anger and quarrel in favor of diplomacy and peace, overall trying your best to be understading and open-minded instead of falling in the trap of seeing the world as being onething only, etc. etc.

Fighting a war can be doing Jihad, but only if you fight for the right reasons i.e. protecting yourself or the people around you. Everything can be Jihad, it's the intend behind it that's the defining factor.

Why the condescending tone? I'm a muslim myself, I've read quite bit about my religion. The books you are talking about are merely theoretical, written from someone who likely got their data by asking different muslims (wether fundamental or not) rather than reading the literal Quran themselves. The "little" Jihad is merely a construct made by muslim militants, then passed on to school books as being the actual definition of Jihad, which in every arabic country and toung it isn't. Jihad is what I just described to you. As I said, waging war can be Jihad but only under the right circumstances. I don't see how hard it is to understand this. Splitting Jihad into two groups is merely a misunderstanding and/or misdefinition of the word itself and its meaning.

It wouldn't be culturally insensitive. Cultural appropriation is the ******* dumbest **** ever. When I go to a Chinese/Japanese restaurant, I use chopsticks, and try to use every courtesy I know for the respective cultures. When I go to a Latin American restaurant, I speak in Spanish and try to strike up a conversation with the waiters.

I watch anime from Japan, I watch movies from China, my clothes are from Vietnam. I drive a car made in the USA, using parts from Mexico, which I think fill with fuel from the Middle East. I eat Italian food like nobody else's business, and I go around wearing an Argentinian shirt 0 1's not bad. . I play an instrument in my college marching band invented by the Germans, based off an instrument invented by Africans, which I then play in concerts.

I'm planning on studying Chinese for the next few years so that I can retire there when my career comes to a close. I'm white, and when I see people of other cultures speaking English, it makes me happy that they acknowledge my culture. I'm sure if I, as a six foot tall white man, were to speak in Chinese with a Chinese speaker, they would be happy that a white man was interested enough in them to go as far as learning the language. Cultural appropriation is ******** because it's asking people to stop all the progress towards acceptance that mankind has been steadily making over the course of human history. Go somewhere crowded and yell "I hate them goddamned ******* " and most people around you will disagree. 200 years ago you would have started a lynching mob, 100 years ago you would have seen a chorus of agreement, and fifty years ago most people around you would agree with you.

**** Tumblr, if they got what they wanted we'd all be racist all over again, but for some reason their specific version of racism isn't racism. (and I'm not even talking anti white, that's a separate issue in itself.)

cultural appropriation can mean a lot of things.
mostly harmless and even positive in my eyes, like learning another language.
but there are some forms of it that I don't like.
- faking a foreign accent in a language you can already speak fluently
- wearing exotic attire without understanding its cultural/political/religious meaning [kefiahs are the worst offender in this camp]
- using foreign words when your own language has words better suited to what you're trying to say
etc.

but mostly when people criticize you for cultural appropriation they're being faggots

To my knowledge (I'm not the most knowledgeable in the field), it's the idea that people should stick to their own heritages. Like it's something that you own, and if you try to take it from someone else, it's a bad thing. People on Tumblr will tell you to stop learning a different language because that apparently qualifies as cultural appropriation.

It's pretty dumb, and I'm 95% sure that it was completely made up, but someone took it seriously and it snowballed from there.

Strictly speaking, it's when one culture takes things from another culture as opposed to when they both give and take, which is cultural exchange . There tends to be a dominant culture that does the taking, and a submissive one.

It's not necessarily bad, though their tends to be a negative view of it by submissive cultures. It can be bad though, think of people wearing bindis for fun, or Native American headdresses (generally just being an backpassage with no regard for a culture).

And racism isn't a thought crime. I can say "All women deserve to be raped" and guess what? i'm allowed to. The same way i'm allowed to be racist. Calling somebody racist doesn't mean they are a bad person or automatically wrong.

And those statistics are correct and saying western countries are islamophobic is kind of hilarious considering whenever something bad happens to somebody because they pissed off muslims by drawing a cartoon people immediately rush to say "It's not all muslims and it's the cartoon creators fault!" and yes it isn't all muslims but it's more then white people on a percentage level which I would say gives me a reason to say multiculturalism is not working because it's the white people (Again on percentages) who are working more and paying more and are going to jail less then the other races.

I'm not Anti muslim or whatever. I just don't think blacks, muslims etc have shown that they are a benefit for society.

Again just look at statistics and try to understand from a white persons perspective. Your people have cultivated this land for thousands of years and have gone from a small tribe to a great nation from your own merits and now you see people from way outside of europe coming into your country and pulling **** like this? If the roles were switched DON'T EVEN PRETEND that muslims would be accepting and welcoming to white people if they committed more crimes in your native land.

Again not Anti Muslim I have known black, muslim people who have been great guys but it doesn't change the prison populations or welfare distributions.

I said that Islam itself by it's own text is dangerous. The quotes I posted before

"Lo! Allah hath bought from the believers their lives and their wealth because the Garden will be theirs: they shall fight in the way of Allah and shall slay and be slain. It is a promise which is binding on Him in the Torah and the Gospel and the Qur'an. Who fulfilleth His covenant better than Allah? Rejoice then in your bargain that ye have made, for that is the supreme triumph."

"Fight against such of those who have been given the Scripture as believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, and forbid not that which Allah hath forbidden by His messenger, and follow not the Religion of Truth, until they pay the tribute readily, being brought low."

"O Prophet! surely We have made lawful to you your wives whom you have given their dowries, and those [slaves] whom your right hand possesses out of those whom Allah has given to you as prisoners of war, and the daughters of your paternal uncles and the daughters of your paternal aunts, and the daughters of your maternal uncles and the daughters of your maternal aunts who fled with you; and a believing woman if she gave herself to the Prophet, if the Prophet desired to marry her – specially for you, not for the (rest of) believers; We know what We have ordained for them concerning their wives and those whom their right hands possess in order that no blame may attach to you; and Allah is Forgiving, Merciful".

"Men are the maintainers of women because Allah has made some of them to excel others and because they spend out of their property; the good women are therefore obedient, guarding the unseen as Allah has guarded; and (as to) those on whose part you fear desertion, admonish them, and leave them alone in the sleeping-places and beat them; then if they obey you, do not seek a way against them; surely Allah is High, Great."

Slandering a whole religion and every single one of it's followers. May I say, do you not realise that Islam is a religion, not just a small group. It consists of kind hearted people, people who are very pious, peaceful, and devote their lives to what they believe in. How can you say that these people, amongst the bad and the evil, should be hated and seen as inferior, because a person who believes in the same things takes part in illegal affairs and crimes.Nobody reserves the right to be racist, no matter who it is target at.

During the Northern Ireland conflicts it was okay to say that the Irish Catholics were not beneficial to society. Because they weren't.

Religion isn't exempt from criticism.

And would you call the Christians during the crusades peaceful and kind hearted people? no I wouldn't either and while the muslims in the modern day are not like the crusaders they still are not as productive and helpful as the native people. That doesn't mean they can't be in the future because the Northern Irish right now are pulling their weight.

It's just that Islam is in a bad place right now and maybe it's best to close the borders until it has all calmed down or until Islam it self starts to die like Christianity is doing because let's be honest “Whoever changes his Islamic religion, kill him.” (Hadith Al Buhkari vol. 9:57) and “Whoever seeks other than Islam as his religion, it will not be accepted from him, and in the hereafter he will be with the losers” “Slay the idolators [non-Muslims] wherever ye find them, and take them captive, and besiege them, and prepare for them each ambush. Fight against such of those who have been given the Scripture as believe not in Allah nor the last Day…. Go forth, light-armed and heavy-armed, and strive with your wealth and your lives in the way of Allah! (Sura 9:5,29,41).

Turtle, I respect you and your opinion and I do not see the point in arguing anymore. I hope you have at least regarded the things I have stated, and in future, maybe seem less racist.

Please, do not take pieces of the Quran and make it seem evil in a sense. Because you have not read it, have you? This is done in most scenarios and it is just disrespectful

"Lo! Allah hath bought from the believers their lives and their wealth because the Garden will be theirs: they shall fight in the way of Allah and shall slay and be slain. It is a promise which is binding on Him in the Torah and the Gospel and the Qur'an. Who fulfilleth His covenant better than Allah? Rejoice then in your bargain that ye have made, for that is the supreme triumph."

"Fight against such of those who have been given the Scripture as believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, and forbid not that which Allah hath forbidden by His messenger, and follow not the Religion of Truth, until they pay the tribute readily, being brought low."

"O Prophet! surely We have made lawful to you your wives whom you have given their dowries, and those [slaves] whom your right hand possesses out of those whom Allah has given to you as prisoners of war, and the daughters of your paternal uncles and the daughters of your paternal aunts, and the daughters of your maternal uncles and the daughters of your maternal aunts who fled with you; and a believing woman if she gave herself to the Prophet, if the Prophet desired to marry her – specially for you, not for the (rest of) believers; We know what We have ordained for them concerning their wives and those whom their right hands possess in order that no blame may attach to you; and Allah is Forgiving, Merciful".

"Men are the maintainers of women because Allah has made some of them to excel others and because they spend out of their property; the good women are therefore obedient, guarding the unseen as Allah has guarded; and (as to) those on whose part you fear desertion, admonish them, and leave them alone in the sleeping-places and beat them; then if they obey you, do not seek a way against them; surely Allah is High, Great."

Isn't Muhammad a idol? And even so why does worshiping a idol make you deserving of death?

No, it Muhammed(pbuh) is not an idol. An idol is basically a figure made out of stone or other materials and is worshipped with God or by itself. In Islam, assuming God has a partner is the greatest sin (shirk) and idol worshippers were usually muslim people that had strayed.

being white is weird, because then people are like "your suede loafers are cultural appropriation since my people originally made clothes from leathers. You're stealing from my society!" and my brain just SCREAMS, "Okay, well then stop using your phone, aaand your computer, in fact, just don't even use electricity anymore" it's like, if you REALLY wanna play takes-backsy, and insist that I don't touch anything my own race didn't discover and invent themselves, then it's gonna suck a whole lot worse for you in the long run, I'm just saying. White people have invented so much **** that I personally don't think any of the races we've invaded or conquered or took land from can complain too much today, because now their place is freaking awesome. Do you know how long it would've taken those guys to even invent like, the lightbulb? At the pace they were at when white people showed up?

Now, I'm not trying to be racist! I'm just saying, that there's a race that made like, *most* of the **** , like almost all the things. So saying "no, you can't have that hijab" or "how dare you wear a dress like that and not be East Indian", ESPECIALLY over Tumblr, (because check out the guy who made that site) is just hypocritical.

Besides! It's not even a thing anymore, it's been years and years since any of this stuff was made for the first time and unless you DIRECTLY invented the thing, you have ZERO say over who gets to use it, it doesn't even matter. You can't claim like, a headdress as your own, sacredly YOUR thing, because you had NOTHING to do with it being made in the first place! Nothing! You just, accidentally of all things, wound up on the team that did that, centuries before you showed up! It's like if I just said "No I've been to the moon" because Neil Armstrong was white. It doesn't work like that.

Before you read the rest of this comment I just want to say I find the 'takesy-backsey' ******** as ridiculous as the next guy.

However, your argument could be used the other way around as well. You say that they shouldn't say we can't wear a hijab because we have so much more stuff that they use all the time - then I could say that they can tell us not to wear a hijab for the same reason, because we have so much more than them, so why should we take one of the few things they have left?

Still who the **** wants to wear a hijab

Because if you get electricity and phones and cars and infrastructure and currency systems and governments and everything from ONE culture, then it's only fair you share your weird hat thing with them in return, at least that's how I see it. You still got a pretty ace deal, right?

Although that's a fair counter-point, I like the debate +1 thumb bro

that really annoys me
hashtags are supposed to be organizational tools to help you search for similar posts. I wonder how many posts there are with the hashtag #its an icepack you dipshiit

#writing random crap in hashtags is stupid
#why didn't you just say this stuff like a normal person
#what are you accomplishing by doing this at the end of every post you make

Funnyjunk tags are just as worthless, and the sad thing is, in the early days of FJ, you could actually use the tags, they were functional, they led somewhere, they described the material and allowed you to find other material with the same tags.

Now here are some highlights from our popular tags:

I find it interesting that Tumblr is so concerned about cultural appropriation. They sure didn't seem to care when they appropriated nerd culture from us. I knew some of these people in high school, and they sure weren't hanging out talking about Final Fantasy or swapping trading cards.
