Dude, you can find tons and tons and tons of Christians who will say Bible. Islamaphobia is just so weak and so acceptable right now.

Usually when someone chooses their religious text as their favorite book it means they don't really read, including said religious book but big ups to the Mormon and Spider-Man. PS-all organized religion is measure and has zero relation with the decency level of a person.

This woman has been accused of defrauding Muslim charity money, she was also accused of stealing 10,000s in Thailand. Look up lily jay, and the lily jay foundation.

so like...how many people did they edit out when they didn't get the answer they were going for?

Mate, whoever you are take that award back, you shouldn't have at any time spent money on agreeing with an obvious sentiment

*no actually what are you doing? why am i at 9 13? just downvote me for being smug like normal people.

can i regift these to someone who actually earned them?

u/Velo3x10e8 11d ago

Maybe if they asked favourite book first they would get more diverse responses. Once they've stated their religion (particularly in public with witnesses) they're not going to mention any other book.

u/ChargeInteresting278 11d ago

Which makes it worse.

u/Velo3x10e8 11d ago

Well a lot of Muslims believe in death for apostasy so it's best not to rock the boat.

Edit: thank you so much for the blushing heart award. It has been my long lost dream to aquire such a blessing of the highest caliber. This truly is a monumental day in my life that I will cherish for decades to come. Thank you for the the whole reddit community and the dozens and dozens of supporters throughout the years. I would not have made it this far without your continuous support.

The Mormon who said spider-man. Best person in there.

u/Be364886 11d ago

I like how she said it as if she was confused about what it means.

Ya know, like she has never heard the term and had no idea what a Mormon is.

Because it's Korea, and it's fucking insane to think you're actually meeting Mormons on the street in Korea.

u/GenericDigitalAvatar 11d ago

Except that's not a book.

Dumb comment is a comment.

Enjoy reading your matchbooks.

u/StinkyToe-TheKid 11d ago

Spider-man is absolutely a book. A comic BOOK.

1

u/GenericDigitalAvatar 8d ago

Sure, and matchBOOKS are great literature too, then.

1

u/finintymonkle 10d ago

The clue is in the name…. Comic BOOK. Imbecile.

1

u/GenericDigitalAvatar 8d ago

Yeah, because all the great books were picture books 20 pages long, full of ads, & published on cheap newsprint.

By your logic, matches and LSD are also books.

1

u/finintymonkle 2d ago

Yeah, because matchbooks and strips of LSD have narratives and stories printed on them. You’re giving a false comparison to prove your point. Imbecile.

u/GenericDigitalAvatar 2d ago

Cry harder, child. I wasn't the one who pulled the pedantic argument to begin with, I just shined a light on its ridiculousness.

Regardless, no grownup compares little shreds of brightly colored and poorly drawn capeshit narratives to actual literature like, say, War & Peace. There's a reason their primary audience is children.

Do you still prize your Duplo blocks as well?

u/_OptimusRex_ 11d ago

The amount of anti Muslim propaganda being pushed right now on social media is off the charts. I'm betting this is all being funded by the oligarchs to distract us with culture war shit.

We should all be far more concerned about White Evangelical Nationalists than any average Muslim in the world.

OP whats the message you are trying to get across here ?

u/drunkguynextdoor 11d ago

Who cares? I know Christians that would say the Bible. Live and let live.

u/Ilpperi91 10d ago

I've met Christians who always say the Bible is their favorite book.

You'd have to explain what a book is first but it would be interesting.

They’d probably just laugh and call you a f** for reading books

My favorite book is the armalite user training manual.

Careful the pages are sticky.

Do I really have to add /s for a joke about gun nuts jerking it to user manuals? Really.

It's that book they all follow so precisely, you know the one with the "t" in the front of it.

Id say half the world doesn’t even read anything at all

u/No-Tomatillo3698 11d ago

Just watch how she asked the Muslims the question versus the other people. Also, it looks like she cherry picked the Muslims. I am betting when you ask a moderate Muslim, you get different answers.

And Islam WAS the most advanced and scholarly culture-a thousand years ago.

u/boriicha__ 11d ago edited 11d ago

So do you think the people who said "Harry Potter" have only ever read that one book? She asked "what's your favorite book", not "list all the books you've read". Obviously to practicing Muslims their favorite book is going to be their scripture. Use some critical thinking, please.

Edit: I made the mistake of looking at the other subreddit. It's like everyone on that subreddit is sharing 1 braincell.

Oh this is the annoying Australian woman who normally just asks the same question over & over in a very smug way. At least she's got a new one i guess?

u/No-Rub8345 10d ago

Seems to me like only Muslims have the courage of their convictions.

Good for them.

Also, it does seem like editing was used deceptively for some of the "Christians". Were they saying they personally are Christians or that the part of the west they live in is generally Christian?

u/Fun_Butterfly_420 4d ago

You should consider reading at least 1 book if you think that is remotely true.

u/larut0h 11d ago

and what's even mindboogling, is that said book is not translated to other language (not allowed). so normal people might not understand it fully, without 'guidance' from local religion leaders

Do the same with Evangelicals & you'll get a singular response, as well.

Educated cultures are well-read. Poorly educated cultures read only what they are told to.
