Thread Name: BS: Islamic radicalism . . .
Subject: RE: BS: Islamic radicalism . . .
"Why the gratuitously abusive "moron" insult?"
When the moron I am addressing stops behaving like one and stops insulting our intelligence
Until such time, it isn't gratuitous - it is merely returning tit for tat.
"Radical Islam is engaged in the most brutal indiscriminate killings"
Not it is not - peop;e throughout the world are engaging in various fights for political and territorial power under the banner of Islam - just as we in the West have engaged in the same type of conflicts "for God, King and country" or "with God on our side"....
That there are religious nutters seeking to make capital out of this is undoubted, but we have our own pseudo-nutters, like yourself, who are engaging in your own Crusades to prove that 'those who kick with the other foot' or who come from 'somewhere else', or 'don't live like us' are an evil force and a threat to 'our way of life'.
You have had a summing up of what is happening, in Nigeria, for instance, from Christians on the ground there; the fact that you have chosen to ignore what they, and many others, have to say about these conflicts, is par for your own so-called Christian course.
Holy wars per se exist only in the heads of religious or pseudo-religious fanatics - "It's all in the mind, you know", as the Famous Eccles used to say.
The religious hate against Jews is echoed by similar hate by and against all religions somewhere or other in the world - you are one of those hate merchants, with your appalling "cultural implants".
Take your fanaticism and hatred somewhere else and let us live in peace.
