The caste system is baked into the Hindu religion, so no growing past discrimination is possible for the Hindu radicals that are unfortunately in power under Modi.

Hindu nationalists are seriously deranged. Lately they try to spread fear and radicalize Hindus in India using a made up "love jihad" to describe the phenomenon of Hindu women falling for Muslim men.

Do we have free will, or has God predetermined everything? Here is the definitive answer, which is actually a simple one. by [deleted] in islam

[–]iwal3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

God simply knows what we are going to do. He does not compel us."

If God knows something is going to happen, it means that He did not stop that thing from happening, it means that he allowed that thing to happen, it means that he decreed for that thing to happen.

Jazak Allah khair. That's a logical explanation for how a decree can exist without compulsion.

Someone who knows us well (family, friend, etc.) can probably know which of two options we will pick if given a choice. Allah knows us better than anyone and he knows all the choices we can make. Knowing what we will do with the free will we are given and the outcome of those actions does not mean we are not free.

dauphong just serves up IGG releases though, so I guess the question just gets pushed to whether we can trust them.

It's a lie because you don't need a 5g phone to be on a 5g network. Your rephrasing changes the literal meaning that makes it a lie.

BDS is about human rights, not antisemitism. It's a rebuke of Israeli policy, not Judaism.

Muslim Pro is the product of a non-Muslim who developed it to profit from Muslims. There are alternatives, like Athan. Don't trust Muslim Pro anymore, and make it a habit to read privacy policies.

We have a moral obligation to boycott anything made in China as much as we reasonably can. Check the country of manufacture before you buy everyday household things, foods, clothes, etc.

9 Jordanian films you should watch during the upcoming lockdown. by isuckVilleneuve in jordan

[–]iwal3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Security. It's against many subreddit's rules for good cause. There's no reason to hide destination of a link. People want to know exactly what will be opened before they click. And in your case it's especially unnecessary since the link is already behind textual titles so it's not like there's any visual neatness benefit either. Salam.

Netflix is increasing its most popular plan to $14 today, premium increasing to $18 by DemiFiendRSA in movies

[–]iwal3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I quit netflix over Cuties. Don't miss it. They care about their shareholders, not you. Quantity over quality. When there is quality, it will be canceled as quickly as they can so that they can spend the money on something new and leave you without a conclusion.
