Well, you see, for example, women are treated horribly in the Koran, and I don't like that. In the Torah, I disprove the point that you're not allowed to eat pork as it is completely out-of-date and was written in a time when pork was dangerous and could kill if not prepared properly. In the Bible, I strongly dislike the fact that women are not allowed to be priests, and I hate the amount of pedophilia in the Catholic church today.

Why am I allowed to say the last one but not the two first ones according to the ToS?

Absolutely, this is true too, but you don't see Christianism or Judaism today systemically oppressing women and not allowing them to work, study, drive, hold important positions...

In Malta, a kidnapper “after abducting a person, shall marry such person, he shall not be liable to prosecution.”

The predominant religion in Malta is that of the Catholic Church. The Constitution of Malta establishes Catholicism as the state religion and it is also reflected in various elements of Maltese culture.

I completely understand what you say, and I agree. However, two questions arise:

  1. Why isn't Christianity up there with the religions you can't be racist or biased against?

  2. Why then is everyone downvoting my comments that simply state objective, non-biased views on religions as a whole (and not about the people that represent them)?

I'm not asking you to answer in particular, you didn't decide these problems. But maybe someone has an answer...?

countries where racism against Christians doesn't really exist

I'd like to remind of the issues the occupied areas of Rojava suffer especially regarding Yazidis. Just a small note, I otherwise agree.

lol are people just gonna keep downvoting absolute facts that I post? Is that the best Raddle can do? Downvote provable facts because it doesn't like them?

I figure I've got a few hours before I get banned for saying nothing but the truth, too.

You're beating a dead horse. We know that religious texts generally have terrible BS in them, but there's really no reason to single any of them out from the rest.
You're getting downvoted, also, because for the smug attitude:

You've done nothing TOS-violating yet, but when you do it won't just be "for saying the truth." :-P

  1. There is absolute reason to single out some from the rest as some are less/more strict or sexist than others; they're not all on the same scale. Eg: Jesus didn't marry an underage child of about 13 without consent.

  2. The only reason why I said that is because I've seen other people get banned(before I created an account) simply for criticizing Islam objectively.

I'm not trying to be smug or anything, and I definitely don't want to get banned, it was just sort of a passive-agressive way (I was mad, apologies) to reflect on what other people have been banned for. (Not saying this always happens at all, it's just what I've noticed on some occasions).
