Thread Name: BS: Gloves off - Jews and Catholics at war!
Subject: RE: BS: Gloves off - Jews and Catholics at war!
The thread is not about religious beliefs. It is about two people having a political argument while using religious buzzwords to bludgeon one another. We also have a third person, a commentator for an Atheist website mocking them as they do so.
There was no discussion of the merits of religious beliefs. In fact Donohue's crack about the Jews "not having many friends" had no religious content at all other than that the group the Rabbi belongs to are called a religion as well as a race and a nation.
That is the point I was making.
I also made a point about ugly broad stereotypes. (Bigotry expressed in this thread)
What I was saying to you is that I don't have the time to debate pointless pedantry with you. If you think that the Rabbi and Donohue were having a religious discussion after what I have said already, nothing I have to say is going to change that. I don't don't need your opinion or input on this matter. And in my opinion neither does anyone else, here on this side of the Atlantic who is actually involved in this election.
