It is unacceptable to me to live in a world that is infested with the self deluded, irrational, parasitic religious. Therefore I believe there are no self deluded, irrational, parasitic religious. Theist logic is great stuff.

@PaleHearse "We're not "persecuting" anyone"

Sure you're not. That's why you're divisively picking a fight with a Muslim who says that he embraces America and thinks that terrorists are evil people. You're like Don Quixote tilting at windmills.

[PaleHearse]

@shabeki

Atheists today realize that it's not a time to remain silent. It IS a time to speak out against religious nonsense where it's used as a license for hate and sexual oppression.

We're not "persecuting" anyone.. we're just no longer going to sit by while religious a-holes use scriptural passages to support crashing planes into buildings and stoning women for being raped.

If you truly do not support islimic violence.. then speak out about it where you see it... but don't deny it.

[shabeki]

@PaleHearse "I have and will continue to speak my mind when the situations arise."

And you are the perfect example of why atheists are so disliked.

Because atheists today feel the need to be confrontational with everyone else.

It used to be that atheists just wanted to be left alone. Now that the number of Americans who attend weekly service is declining, atheists delude themselves into feeling empowered. And in doing so, they're just as bad as those who used to persecute them.

@shabeki

Not my battles to pick.. and I have and will continue to speak my mind when the situations arise.

As to my life.. I don't spend it pissing people off.. but I don't spend it pandering to nonsense either.

We speak on equal terms in that regard. What we have said will stand for others to see and judge on the merits of the conversation.

[shabeki]

@PaleHearse Bitter hatred at all religions and a useless life where you spend your time pissing off others just for believing differently is not a "better vehicle." It's just an empty life.

If you had a purpose to your life and reasons to be such a bitter troll, then you would make sense. But you're spending your time picking losing battles with Muslims, Christians and Jews who have nothing to do with you and mean you no harm.

So it's a pretty pathetic life you're choosing here.

@shabeki

"I believe in the best ideals of Islam, ones that affirm life, peace, charity, truth, nonviolence and a devotion to God."~

Well I wish we were talking about you.. but we're not now.. are we?

"how much you hate the vehicle by which people extol these values."~

Find a better vehicle. I have.

[PaleHearse]

@shabeki

"You've clearly read few passages of the Qur'an beyond those which you've decided to cherry-pick"~

Let's also be clear.. I'm not the one "cherry picking" these passages. They were chosen for the very reason that they are currently being used as a license or racism, violence and sexual inequality. If they weren't.. we wouldn't be having this discussion right now.

The fact that you have come full circle in this shows clearly that your out of argument.

[PaleHearse]

@shabeki

"for his irrational hatred of Muslims"~

And then you failed to show how his concerns are irrational. His concerns are genuine.. and accurate.

It's not "bigoted" to identify issues against social morality that need to be addressed, and it's not incumbent on myself or others to be tolerant of violence and racism even when cloaked and embodied a religion.

[shabeki]

@PaleHearse This video is of a Nobel Prize winner agreeing with something Condell said. If this depicts what I'm embodying, then you are even more stupid than I thought.

I simply said that Condell is a bigoted ass for his irrational hatred of Muslims and his views on Park51 lacking any facts.

You are the bigoted angstheist troll who decided to smear all of Islam and initiate some bizarre holy war on your part.

You've shown a poor grasp of the facts and a divisive hatred of all religions.
