Don't be tedious...

Why not take your own advice, FD? Roll Eyes

Lets try again then. You are equating a religion with a race Brian. Asia is where a person comes from. Islam is what a person believes. Are you honestly suggesting there is no difference?

Where have I done that, FD?

You appear unable to differentiate between what I have said and what a quote I have quoted has said. Why? Is it convenient to erect this silly strawmen arguments? Roll Eyes

Someone said we could not judge a person's Aboriginality on their skin colour. Why isn't that applied in the matter of Pascoe? Tsk, tsk, tsk... Roll Eyes

Provide a reference or better yet, quote the post (in it's entirety) where I supposedly said that, FD. Roll Eyes

Reply #184 - Jun 3^rd, 2016 at 9:38pm The last resort of the defenders of Islam is to say that its opponents are racists, when the whole subject is about religion and its fanatical murder cult who, unfortunately, are represented in all races.

I disagree, FD and that is the point I am making. I have not equated a religion with a "race" in the slightest. Until you quote back to me where I have supposedly done this, I will refuse to acknowledge your question or even consider answering it. Simple really. You erect strawmen, FD. I won't play your game.

I thought you were feigning confusion? You know, Pauline Hanson and all that?

Won't you be just as confused as the last time I quoted it back for you?

Also known as the notorious 'Sheik Hilali Defence' ... which includes 'misunderstanding'; the truth of what was said is 'lost in translation'; have been 'misquoted' by the media; etc

'Equally valid'. Then why argue against them? It's obvious you don't consider them equally valid otherwise you wouldn't be disagreeing. This is clear case of where the buzzword 'equality' distorts thinking.

Only in your mind Misty, only in your mind... Roll Eyes

Well, it is processed by my mind, but that's not the point. The term 'equality' as a measure of judging arguments distorts the evaluation process. If it's all equal there would be no need for arguments at all.

You've been at this for a while and your argumentation methods haven't improved. I would have thought that someone who has been engaging in dialectics for years would have sharpened their skills. Your points are poorly thought out, and that's why you end up contradicting yourself. You need to take your ideas to their conclusions to see where they lead, then make amendments where necessary.

I've also never abandoned my own culture.

So how does that work misty?

How can you get on your moral high horse and rant about migrants to Australia who also "never abandon their own culture"?

I don't plan on permanent migration outside Australia, so there's no contradiction.

Ee-gad, as best as possible? Whatever happened to or else?

A supplimentary if I may, Mistie: do you speak the language of the Turk?

Fair enough too - they can't risk sex attacks & terrorist cells in their village.

Why should they have to pay a huge fine?

Why indeed.

But then it's probably a small price to pay when compared to the cost that will be incurred by other communities in the form of stolen goods, drug dealing, gang formation, public groping and molestations, demands for no pork products at the schools, girls being separated from the boys, jeering disrespect towards the local women for wearing lipstick and no headdress, mosque-building, prayer halls, jails filling up with Muslim youths, extremist preachers, ISIS sympathisers, Jew hating Muslim activists, pro-Palestinian demonstrations - and all the rest of the crap that comes with these people.

And let's not forget the stone-throwing and the eventual development of No-Go areas for the police, ambulances and fire brigades.

A professor of sociology should study this Muslim-free town in comparison to what happens in the neighbouring towns and cities over the next 30 years or so. It would make fascinating reading. But then again, any such research paper would be banned as 'unhelpful', 'racist', and 'liable to cause upset and distress' among the Muslim community'.

You make some strong points there Herby.

Well done.

We need more gated communities to keep the riff-raff out.

There are too many undesirable people who walk the streets & rob honest people.
Burglaries are happening every minute in Australia.
