Peace to all Nigerians, and especially Muslims.

YouTube and the internet in general has now become a site preoccupied with a one-sided narrative that is geared towards attacking Muslims.

Everyone and their mother are allowed to make death threats towards certain Islamic ethnic groups with impunity, conjure up lies about Nigerian historty, use the most vile and slanderous verbiage towards others, etc.

But simply and respectfully correcting and debunking false narratives gets your comments blocked and/or deleted.

What kind of hypocrisy is this?

This is actually a violation of Universal Human Rights.

Muslims on nairaland, let your voices be heard on this thread.

Thanks bro it broke my heart how followers of Christ (Christian was never a word on the Bible) and other non-islam believers attack islam and make mockery of our religion...it's disheartening and the MOD keep allowing it to happen

Another Nairaland terrorism. A village has been attacked in Niger state by Islamic bandits leaving 18 people dead, true or false?

Yes, it is very sad indeed.

But Truth and goodness shall prevail for all true believers, regardless of religious creed.

The wicked ones of the world only expose their desperation and cowardice by these tactics.

Remain steadfast brother.

Jazak Allahu Kharyan!

Acts 11:26
And when he had found him, he brought him to Antioch. So it was that for a whole year they assembled with the church and taught a great many people. And the disciples were first called Christians in Antioch.

1 Peter 4:16
However, if you suffer as a Christian, do not be ashamed, but praise God that you bear that name.

The tragedy of showing off ignorance with confidence!

Your fellow adherents make mockery of your faith but you choose to focus on the low hanging fruits....people who do not profess your religion.

I guess the bandits/terrorists who yesterday morning attacked and killed worshippers in the Mosque in Niger State are Bhuddists?

There is no Semitic word called "Christian", that's an English word. The original word for the followers of Christ is "Al-Nasara" or "Nasarene".

The tragedy of showing off ignorance with confidence indeed.

The original word for the followers of Christ is of Arab origin? Very delusional!

So it is no longer has its origin from the Greek word "Christianos" and then Anglicized, Christians?

So was it Bhuddists that attacked your fellow adherents during prayers, since others are your enemies? I guess you will be uncomfortable answering that.

I will take Islam is peace mantra serious when churches are built in Saudi especially Mecca and Medina. Muslms are intolerant of other religions.

I truly want to ignore you morons because I know you demons only thrive off of derailment and division.

The fact of the matter is, the early followers of Yeshua did not call themselves "Christians".... Essenes, Nasaranes, but never "Christian". Facts.

Now can you please leave this thread in peace? Just ignore it. Thank you.

You created a thread, playing the victim card while demonizing non-Muslims....you now hide behind the cloak of what name Christians were known during the times of the Apostles while you ignore the brutality Muslims are dishing out to their fellow Muslims up to the extent of going to kill them in a Mosque during prayers.... I guess in your world there is nothing wrong in that because those perpetrators are not sworn enemies of Islam and Muslims because they are Muslims like you, what can be more moronic than that?

Ventilate your room by opening your windows and stop accusing a passerby of suffocating you!

Jesus with love and compassion selected his followers. Muhammed with hatred and violence selected his followers.

The only thing beautiful about this is more people in the African diaspora are waking up to who the true hate-filled problem of Nigeria is, whether you realize it or not. Trust me.

I simply made a thread talking about YouTube/Internet censorship and propaganda towards Moslems, while opening up with PEACE TO ALL NIGERIANS.... and this is your response?

You're the one that mentioned Christians, you idiot, when you were trying to be sarcastic to another poster, and was wrong. I simply corrected you. I never mentioned a single word about any other Nigerians but Muslims.

Haha, what a dummy. You're so filled with hatred you can't even keep track of your conversations.

What exactly does this have to do with you, idiot?

Do you own YouTube? Do you own the Internet? If not, why are you bothered by this thread?

Do you also have an interest in spreading propaganda, too?

Well, unfortunately, the devils that run the internet don't see you as one of them...

when karma hits your useless type for not only trying to instigate war in our country, but also intimidating and brutalizing those amongst your group that actually have sense, they will abandon you morons and laugh it up with all the blood money they accumulated from you fools.

Meanwhile you idiots will go down in history as the embarrassments of Africa----the shameless fools that sided with enemies of Africa just to spite their fellow countrymen---- while the beautiful good souls amongst your people will be embraced in the loving embrace of the Almighty as he redeem this planet for the meek and humble.

Go get high, loser.

Hi there!

I was just passing by but I don't really get this argument (even though I've heard it several times). So if the word used in a non English context is "Al-Nasara" which means "followers of Christ", how is it a problem that the English Bible gave it an more English translation "Christian"? Were you really expecting the English word "Christian" to appear in the non English Bible? In Mandarin Chinese, we say "jidu jiao" which pretty much means the same thing. Are we also to argue that the word "jidu jiao" was not used in the original Bible? I believe different languages have thier respective translations for the original term all meaning the same thing, "followers of Christ". So why are we obsessed with the fact that English translation "Christian" was not used while we have "Al-Nasara" which means the same thing? Or should Christians be called "Al-Nasara" in Russia, China, France, etc. even though it's not a word in the languages spoken in these countries?

This is not an argument but a sincere quest for knowledge seeing as I'm not very religious myself. Like I said, I've heard people discuss this before and struggling to make sense of it.

Thanks.

Hello,

With all due respect, you should read this thread fully before posting.

No one is making a big deal about this. Certain people specialize in derailing topics, that's the only reasob that subject even came up.

Soon dem go blow this thread up after dem don shout allahu finish.

Please discern MOSLEMS FROM MUSLIMS. THEY ARE DIFFERENT FROM EACH OTHER.

Uncle is pained o! .

It seems you are selectively blind, who first mentioned Christians on this thread and in which light did the poster, your fellow Muslim portray Christianity in his post?

"Thanks bro it broke my heart how followers of Christ (Christian was never a word on the Bible) and other non-islam believers attack islam and make mockery of our religion...it's disheartening and the MOD keep allowing it to happen"

Just as you felt okay with his post and never explicitly told him it was wrong roping in Christians and non-Islam believers as attackers of Islam into this thread, what does that make you? It makes you a fool and an idiot that you have freely used in your response.

I did actually read the thread and if the terminology issue was indeed a derail, then it appears you enjoined others to derail your own thread cause you literally made it the centre of the conversation. When you say "please, read the thread", I don't know what else is you want me to read seeing as the majority of the posts here (including yours) are about the terminology. So you can't really blame me for joining the what seemed to be the active conversation. Maybe it would have been better if you had told the first commenter it should be a "non issue" instead moving to make it a big deal by actively debating it.

Nevertheless, I agree with you it's not a big deal. I don't really see what's wrong in respectfully addressing people how they want to be addressed especially by someone complaining about other people disrespecting his religion. Like you pointed out yourself, such irrelevant debates will only make a mess of your main purpose of creating the thread. Except, of course, I'm the one misunderstanding the purpose.

Thanks for the response.

Anyway, post whatever useless garbage you want. That's the only thing your useless type are good for in Nigeria. Like I said, when Karma hits back at your type (Like it's currently doing in your crime ridden state) for all the chaos you're instigating, the West you people shamelessy drool over WILL ABANDON YOU and you will go down as the embarrassments of Africa, a shameless people who sided with Devils against their fellow Africans..... except for the good souls amongst you who have spoken out against your nonsense, and are threatened by you useless group of primitive degenerates.

Yoruba moslems are the problem of Nigeria

Honestly I just don’t think religion has a future in general, it causes too many ethnic wars and slows down development

I'm not getting into this long drawn out convo with you. You're clearly trying to use a passive aggressive tone to pose as if you're here in the spirit of diplomacy, which is what I already ascertained in your original comment.

You don't know what I want you to read? Just read the original post, and be better than the derailers of this thread. This thread is mainly for Muslims, without attacking anyone else, only pointing out YouTube.... so since the subject is for Muslims, I guess it doesn't apply to most of the commenters on this thread, right?

So wouldn't it be best for most of these commenters to just move on? Unless they're part of the YouTube propaganda, and are somewhat offended...

Senseless Muslims. Not too long ago, Boko Haram attacked and killed muslim worshippers while worshipping in the mosque.

Last week Taliban or another Jihadi muslim sect bombed a shia mosque and killed muslim worshippers right there in the mosque but no, it's Christians and other religions that are tarnishing muslim image.

Senseless Muslims. Not too long ago, Boko Haram attacked and killed muslim worshippers while worshipping in the Quran.

USA a predominantly christian country founded on judeo christian laws is the greatest nation ever so what exactly is your point ?

Only one poster mentioned "Christians and other religions" attacking and mocking their religion.

I only mentioned YouTube censorship. But ironically, all of you have proven his point.

Thanks for your contribution.

MOSLEMS AND MUSLIMS ARE TWO DIFFERENT SECTS. PLEASE DISTINGUISH BETWEEN THEM.

USA was founded by freemason members and built on cheap labor from slavery... only rettards build nations on some Jewish religion. You have no point.

Africans like you who blame their wrong choices in life on the West are the embarrassments of Africa.

The West is responsible for your uncontrolled reproduction, birthing children whose provisions have not been provided for, low human capital development, misappropriating public funds that was meant to serve fellow Africans.

So having a different view from yours means one is drooling over the West. By the way, why should I even drool over the West or maybe you want me to drool over Saudi Arabia?

I live in the West, earning and Nigeria is benefiting from my remittance......I am not a liability to Nigeria as some are.
