You still insist on misunderstanding the simplest little thing, Boaz.

>>I understand what you are getting at... You would like to turn this into a 'its you' kind of thing..<<

Not at all.

If you were to stop slagging Islam at every opportunity.

If you were to stop inventing opportunities to slag off Islam at every chance you get.

If you were to accept that atheism isn't a religion, and stopped posting that it is "just another faith".

If you were to accept that not all atheists obey a single set of rules, instead of accusing them all of being paedophiles, or practicing bestiality at every opportunity.

Then quite frankly, I wouldn't need to give you another thought.

Unfortunately, under the somewhat tatty cloak of "bringing the word to the unbeliever", you constantly rattle on along the lines of the above.

Having said all that, it probably wouldn't matter if you posted logical, supportable statements, or presented thoughtful, untainted evidence. But this is a habit you have yet to get into.

>>there is 'contributions' under my nick..and if anyones wishes not to avail themselves of my thoughts.. they just ignore it.<<

But when your contributions are illogical, or insulting, or when they are simply yet another excuse for your whack-a-mozzie fetish, I'm afraid they will not be ignored.

They need to be cleared up, like dog turds off a pavement.

But it is absolutely not personal, Boaz, I promise.

Hi Pericles.....

well.. you did it again. Aside from the rather repetitive allegations...
You are doing that thing again.. (I'm glad you mentioned that finger.. I've never forgotten that) you are saying..that "I'm" saying..

-All Muslims are terrorists.
-All Atheists are pedophiles and enjoy a bit of animal...

Whoa... I've not said either of those things.

I criticize "Islam" as a set of doctrines.
I point out that without reference to God.. people will just go off in any moral (immoral) direction, and there is no reason to claim bestiality, pedophilia or other forms of abuse are anything but 'different' forms of legitimate behavior.

Now there is a difference between pointing out the philosophical implications of something and claiming EVERYONE is 'that'.

This applies to Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism and any ism.. and that includes Atheism.

I'm spending most of my debating time in constructive dialog with Muslims on youtube at present, and by and large we are all getting along famously, even warmly.

Sometimes.. it helps to publicize 'stupidity'.. which includes..

-People prone to give money to (to me)obviously fraudulent Televangelists.
-Mormons believing a book (Book of Mormon) claiming that Native American Indians are Hebrew descendants when DNA shows that impossible.
-Muslims believing some of the Quran which to most people is unpalatable.
-Atheists who claim they have a foundation for morality, when the truth is.. 'anyone' can make up their own rules as they go...on that basis.

and so it goes on.

Cheers

Nonsense. You have not substantiated this and I challenge you to do so. Your claim implies any non Christian is incapable of behaving morally. What rubbish. This is something you might beleive but it has no basis in fact. Of course you'll disagree, so offer your rationale and examples to back up your claim.

This is exactly where we disagree, at a fundamental (sorry!) level, Boaz.

You state your position, as you have many times, as:

>>You are doing that thing again... you are saying..that "I'm" saying..
-All Muslims are terrorists.
-All Atheists are pedophiles and enjoy a bit of animal...
Whoa... I've not said either of those things. I criticize "Islam" as a set of doctrines.

If there is a difference, Boaz, it exists only in your mind. To those whom you target, telling them that they fit within, in your view, an immoral category, is exactly the same as calling them immoral, as individuals.

You obviously do not see this, which is why you continue to do it.

Don't expect a quick response, Ditch.

Boaz is presently trawling YouTube, looking for some more juicy bits of propaganda to present to us.

Like a cat bringing in a dead pigeon for you to admire.
