Birmingham 'exploitation' gang named.

I think everyone was expecting the list to be made up of Mohammeds and Ahmeds. Where are the Als at?

So, they are Muslim?

So, this is YET ANOTHER child sex gang where Muslims were the responsible?

Either:

-British police only enjoy following leads where Muslims are paedos

or

-The vast majority of child sex gangs are Muslim......

Are they really muslims though? The names and faces look Pakistani.

So, they are Muslim?

What? muslim (well, islam) is a religion, a religion followed by most Pakistanis.

Is the problem really Islam/muslims, or does the problem lie with our government's (Labour, Tory, it doesn't matter) deteriorative immigration policies?

So that makes every Pakistani a Muslim? Are you stupid, or are you stupid? I'm gonna go with option 2

Well, obviously the immigration policies are/were stupid, but that doesn't remove blame from the perps.

So there's no evidence to label them as muslims.

Okay. But they, as individuals, are more to blame than the policies.

I wholeheartedly agree that the individual is to blame for the individual's action.

I completely disagree with the notion that a belief system, such as Islam, Christianity, Judaism, Statism, Leftism, Conservatism ETC is to BLAME for an individual's actions.

While I might agree that this particular case is not the result of religious teachings, are you really saying that someone's religious beliefs don't inform how they act?

I'm saying we shouldn't blame a given belief system for the actions of an individual.

An individual should be held responsible for the actions he commits and the consequences of his actions, not the belief system.

Though I do agree with you in saying that whole-hearted belief in certain specific concepts, e.g. "murder is wrong", "drugs are bad mmk", "fighting on a Friday night is fun", certainly do influence the behaviour of an individual. The belief must be akin to truth in order for this influence to be manifested.

I disagree.

If the specific religion that someone adheres to has a commandment that tells them to kill people who wear blue hats on Sunday and they do so, I think it would be perfectly fine to say that the religious teaching is a problem. That's not to say that the individual isn't at fault also.

This is getting ridiculous. Once again, I'm sure they will all be white girls.

Is there any evidence to confirm that these sick paedos are actually practicing muslims/followers of Islam?
