    <p>your point with 'poor muslims', as far as i can tell, was that you didn't feel sorry for normal peaceful muslims living in a western democracy who were being mistreated. you lumped them in with terrorists - the implication was clear: why should i feel sorry for these muslims when other muslims are shooting at / bombing 'our' people. that is bigotry. i'm sorry, but i just don't have a nicer word for it - it isn't name-calling, it's simply descriptive.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>this is not the first time i have explained this, but you can keep saying that i haven't addressed the point if you like.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>again, i haven't 'yelled' anything. i'm as calm as can be - i think the things you say are wrong, and i'm not going to stop pointing that out and calling them what they are. letting it go unchallenged would be tantamount to accepting your narrative, which i'm not going to do.</p>

    <p>I didnt say you had to accept what I have to say. What I am saying is dont make shit up that I never said, that is just dishonest and invalidates your argument, and not tomention the fact you started out just attacking me and not bringing anything to the table otherwise, then when challenged about your lies.. you just double down.. before then playing the victim. </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>And I could continue being descriptive of what I think you are a  regressive Islamic apologist who puts appeasement ahead of common sense. Oh.. I am not calling names... I am simply being descriptive apparently.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>And you are correct I don't think some hurty words is anywhere near as bad as people being murdered. </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>And you havent addressed anything about your stupid assertion, I keep quoting it to you... and you still don't reply... why? Because you know it is bullshit. Shall I quote it again for you?</p>

    <p>you keep quoting that, and it confuses me: do you seriously not understand how your initial post was not attacking the doctrine, but rather attacking muslims as a people? i explained it in the post immediately above.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>something being not as bad as something else does not make it okay. again, i have said this already.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>what you said is, by definition, bigotry, i've explained that. if you can tell me what it is that i have said that you think is regressive, please do. if you can tell me what you think i am apologising for, please do.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>seems like you're a have the last word kind of fella eh?</p>

    <p>Is just blatantly false, and just feeds your constructed narrative. You have managed to come up with one supposed example.  Do you know what 'more often than not' means?

Loser runs out of examples first.</p>

    <p>I will start... seems fair.. and just from this thread..</p>
    <p> </p>
    <blockquote class="ipsBlockquote">
    <p style="color:rgb(40,40,40);font-family:helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">It is an Islam thing. Lets assume that the guy was homosexual, his religion told him to hate and murder gays. When the guy was already fucked in the head, following a religion that hates homosexuals and wants them all dead.. that is an issue.</p>
    <p style="color:rgb(40,40,40);font-family:helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">Not being fucked in the head would have helped.. not following a hateful religion would have helped.</p>

    <p>if i'm not apologising for anything, how can i be an apologist? if you're not sure what they mean, you should stop parroting these phrases: islam apologist, regressive left, cloak of sanctimony etc, and try thinking for yourself.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>does this proposed competition mean that you are now accepting that your initial post was bigotry, attacking muslim people in general as opposed to the doctrine?</p>
    <p>you want to turn it into a percentage of posts game now?</p>

    <p>Wow.. you comprehension is incredibly shite. But just for you.. no.. I am not admitting any such thing. </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>It is about pointing out that like another Islamic apologists you just make stuff up about what other say to suit your narrative. You dont care about what people actually say,. you jjst care that they dont agree with you, u get frustrated at your inability to actually form an argument on what they say, so you invent stuff.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Now .. you going to take that bet?</p>

    <p>you see, from a very cursory inspection i don't have a problem with that site at all. here's a quote from it:</p>

    <p> </p>
    <p>Which is entirely in line with my criticism of the baron's initial post saying he had no sympathy for muslims being mistreated.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>and also the ramadan bombathon is pretty sweet.</p>

    <p>but the article which you were talking about was about muslims being mistreated. at no stage did it, or anyone else, compare levels of sympathy for victims of violence to that. except you. and yet you are the one who keeps saying 'straw man'.</p>
    <p>your implication was clearly that they didn't deserve sympathy because they were muslim. you're not real good at admitting when you do something wrong eh?</p>
