Theland, none of that is applicable to this case.

[Theland]

Possibly, but paedophilia was a feature of their founder.

[naomi24]

Not in the same way, Theland. He didn’t go out preying randomly on little children. He was a product of his time - and barbaric times they were. Incidentally, that’s why there is no lower age limit for marriage in Islam. Certain countries impose restrictions, but Islam itself doesn’t - which is why some Muslim men marry little girls - and the children's parents are happy to hand their daughters over. The prophet is deemed beyond reproach and the Koran actually gives instructions to men on how to divorce their pre-pubescent brides.

[naomi24]

None of that^ applies to the man in question. Like all paedophiles he's simply as monster.

What IS the elephant????

Serious question.

Totally lost.

Glad the Old Bill got this predator off the street.

Pity we cant get the cheese-wire out to make sure he is safe to release in four years time, which IMHO, is too short. (Yes 8 years less the usual)

so - - - the elephant in the room - is
the tired old - one man is bad so all the whole subset he belongs to is bad ( or worse ) - especially if identifiable (*) by language or dress

yup got it this time !

I've missed reading your posts then spending 15 minutes trying to work out what you mean.

You must be ace at cryptic crosswords.

[andy-hughes]

Now I see what the 'elephant' is - TTT trying to be cryptic in linking the imagined faith of a criminal in order to pin his crimes and mindset on his faith.

Even for you TTT, that is stretching well past the bounds of credibility - and as the thread demonstrates, you have not one single taker for your bizarre mindset on this issue.

// one man is bad so all the whole subset he belongs to is bad ( or worse ) - especially if identifiable (*) by language or dress//

one muslim is bad so the whole lot of Islam is bad too ( or worse ) especially if they are identifiable by language ( urdu or arabic ) or dress ( jellabiya or panshar-funny hat)

er is that really so hard ?

[THECORBYLOON]

As TORATORATORA appears to have abandoned this thread, perhaps the elephant in the room was a hallucination all the time?

[Mozz71]

A pink elephant in the room Corby?

[THECORBYLOON]

More than likely...

[Mamyalynne]

Pink Elephants Matter.

[royfromaus]

Can't see an elephant on the thread... but there's an animal with long funny ears that kicks up at anything he hears.
His back is brawny, but his brain is weak
He's just plain stupid with a stubborn streak

[Mozz71]

I did pull Tora up on this thread, and he claims he'll return "when the thread needs a poke". Sounds like he is waiting for prime trolling opportunities to me.

you ladies are having so much fun without me, I don't need to post what everyone already knows do I? It's been mentioned at least half a dozen times above, the usual apologists have had their say. When we get to 100 I'll chime in if you girls think you need me to affirm the obvious. Here's a clue, how old was at least one of Mohammed's wives? if it helps to make it larger use base 8.
