I am unsure in whose eyes you think your view makes you less than human - certainly not mine.

Unless you are following an increasing trend of reading posts, seeing something that is not there, and then responding to it.

andy, I don't really care much as I don't really like celery anyway.

Absolutely .... as long as you don't follow it by either contradicting what you have just read, or adding something else on the end that was not in the original post - or both!

Because if you do, I will jump all over you with my size 9 Docs!!

[Zacs-Master]

Will you now. Mmm.

divebuddy - Your point is an interesting one.

I think the comparison with the Nazis is tricky though.

As I see it, the extermination of the Jews and others was done from a calculated economic and social plan - which lacks the emotional intensity of anything which has its roots in fanatical faith.

I understand that Osama Bin Laden's last words on earth were,"I need all these US Navy Seals running round my house like a hole inthe head"

divebuddy - I think they did, but I think the impulses are different.

Nazism is based on a politicial system, rather than faith-based.

The Muslim faith has been passed down for thousands of years, it is steeped in history and families can refer back to parents, grandapretns and beyond when talking about it.

Compared to that, Nazism was a blink of an eye, barely one generation would have time to assimilate it before it was gone again, so I don't think the parallel fits entirely, although I do concede that the fanaticism is something Nazism and religious
extremism they have in common.

Groundhog Day strikes again -

I post as I, you, and everyone else is entitled to do, and you are entirely free to respond to me, or anyone else or ignore me, or anyone else, as you see fit.

As to my Moderator status, I don't see that there is a connection between that and me posting.

I am enjoying a civilised exchange of views with divebuddy - if you have nothing constructive to add to that, then please save your off-thread posts, they are not required.

No it hasn't. //

I read that it started in the seventh century.
