In a thread about that Muslim woman being bashed by a stranger on that train or was it bus, some seemed to say it was ok
Look read the posts, then tell me that is not what was said
But if you agree? then let's highlight GYs view this thread was unneeded
Now win no friends with this BUT dislike seeing Islamic middle east or Asian clothing on women
But even at my age would have instantly jumped on that offender
We have rights to our opinions doubt either thread in the end could not be used for better if we think about it

Really interesting to me that god denying virtue signallers have a history of depravity and child abuse. See Prince Charles banging on about gw. Nice distraction from Prince Andrew. That Gail sheila and the current ceo of Bankwest refusing to lend to coal producers. Nice one as they laundered heaps of money for child molestors while virtue signalling their woke ideologies. Then we have Hollywood. I would imagine Epstein was probably the next gw high priest of gw but that did not go to well.

I'm not sure what you are asking me to do Belly. I read the violence against Muslim women thread and I don't think anyone was urging anyone to go out and bash anyone because they were Muslim. I would remove a post like that.

The assailant is mentally ill, and the woman was defended by people in the restaurant who detained the assailant and took him outside. He apparently has issues with Islam.

Some commenters, who obviously hadn't looked at the footage remarked that the women must have been wearing Islamic garb, and there was some antipathy towards that. I don't think that calls for me to step in and start deleting comments.

Not sure why we are discussing this on this thread anyway, as it doesn't really have anything to do with religion being divisive, unless someone is going to mount a case that it is the women's fault for wearing dress associated with a faith. But I'd argue that the divisive ones are those who object to them wearing that dress.

China also comes up in the figures for persecution, but they also currently persecute Muslims, some 600,000 and 4,000,000 Hong Kong. I do not think China supports theism. In all the figures of countries above have a religious based constitution.

I saw it differently GY post the coming bill on religious protection and rights others may see it my way
Had it been a Christian bashed by a Muslim my view would be the same admit it needed no formal action but is my right to question those two posters ok?

Dear Banjo,

«None of these atrocities and terrible injustices were committed by atheists. They were committed by religious people against other religious people. They are acts of religious intolerance.»

They were committed by people who called themselves "religious", but were they indeed? These are acts of intolerance, but are they indeed religious acts? Has God indeed ordained these terrible acts? Why should you believe all those self-proclaimed "religious" idiots?

Also, these horrible atrocious people could well have been atheists: so what if they SAID that they believed in God (or gods) - can you really know what was in their hearts?

(just note however, that the above does not imply that an atheist cannot be religious)
