"You defend other faiths Jim."
For the record - I don't defend other faiths; I defend the innocent victims of inter-religious warfare and religious intolerance by any fundamentalist religious extremists, be they Muslim, Christian, Zionist... whoever "they can all go to their own particular hell in a handcart" - remember?
I have no religion and am only interested in the subject while it puts innocent people's lives at risk and brings discord and unhappiness to their existance. The only way I can see that ever happening is to nuetralise any influence that religious groups may have on the way the world is governed. Here in Ireland, we are still counting the child rape victims of Christian persecution (or don't Catholic clerics count as Christians in your book?) - a never-ending task, it would appear.
This is a perfect example of why you really aren't worth debating with - you don't read what others write, then you concoct a distorted version of what has been put forward to suit your own particular 'message to the world' - go away please.
