Subject: RE: BS: Christian Persecution
"Jim, I challenged you to identify a single incident that was not true." And I defy you to prove that all of the many hundreds he put up that are true - you gave all of them your unqualified support - prove it. "I do not think the list was untrue, whoever published it." If any censorship is necessary on forums like this it is that which gives credence to extremist fascist groups such as the ones you are supporting here - these are self-declared and extremely (no accident in using that word) Islamophobic sites and would be illegal in the governable world. Boo-boo has used White Power sites before now in his Islamophobic crusade "Christian communities are disappearing now after two thousand years of coexistence." Age old religions, some far older than Christianity, disappeared without trace under the British Empire - that's exactly what one religion does to the others when it has any say in the matter - goes with the territory. As late as my schooldays we were still singing hymns claiming that to belong to religions other than Christianity was to be "in error's chain". Wars were/are still fought "with God on our side". "though it already happened to many Jewish communities." And Israelis are driving out Palestinians to make room for Jewish settlements - and oppressing, starving and killing people in ordoer to do so - that's exactly what one religion does to the others when it has any say in the matter - goes with the territory. Israel is now being described, by Jews and non-Jews alike, as "the Apartheid State" "Troubadore you seem to be saying that the Christians may deserve to be massacred and driven out of their ancestral homes." He/she is saying no such thing - just pointing out the tit-for-tat nature of all religions - that's how I read it anyway. You are the only one supporting religious intolerance and persecution here by attempting to suppress and censor discussion on Christian behaviour towards believers and non-believers alike. Any chance of your stopping deliberately misrepresenting other people's arguments just for a short time at least - c'mon, It's nearly Christmas - season of goodwill to all men. "I know I'll be missed. (not!)" I'll miss you Elmore, for the breath of fresh air if nothing else. If your decision is irreversible - have a good Christmas. Jim Carroll
