You also deliberately conflate criticism of Islam with 'persecution', no less, of every unnamed Muslim, which is a stupid and dishonest thing to do. But you do it because you cannot think of a good argument and so this way you can simply denounce anyone who criticises Islam and its role in justifying jihad and sharia. Soren, if someone posts something that is obviously "racist" (and the issue of "race", not religion - just to stop your usual tap dancing), what do you refer to it as? Say, if someone was to call Nelson Mandella an "old black person"? So, if someone posts something that is obviously "bigoted" (towards religion), what do you refer to it as? Say, if someone was to suggested that, "All Catholics kiss the Pope's arse and worship Satan"? So, if someone continually criticises one religion and it's adherents, without let up and in an often unwarranted way, despite being criticised themselves for doing it, what do you call it? So it's not ok to dislike and criticise any single belief system, say, Nazism, Islam, Catholicism, Satanism, whatever, one has to find something nice, something to like about it to make any criticism fair? And one has to dislike and criticise all other system in equal measure lest you call them a bigot and a persecutor? You have the zeal of a heresy sniffer-outer, Brain. You cannot argue, you can only denounce. Quote: I'd call it religious persecution, Soren and guess who does it? You. You are ridiculous. Avoiding the questions, again, Soren? How unsurprising. I didn't ask you about motivation, I didn't ask you about alternative belief systems. I asked you about what do you call a person's argument when it fulfils those requirements. So, please answer them. Soren, if someone posts something that is obviously "racist" (and the issue of "race", not religion - just to stop your usual tap dancing), what do you refer to it as? Say, if someone was to call Nelson Mandella an "old n_i_g_g_e_r"? So, if someone posts something that is obviously "bigoted" (towards religion), what do you refer to it as? Say, if someone was to suggested that, "All Catholics kiss the Pope's arse and worship Satan"? So, if someone continually criticises one religion and it's adherents, without let up and in an often unwarranted way, despite being criticised themselves for doing it, what do you call it? How do you identify these sorts of comments, Soren?
