Bombs {well sort of} away.

Sorry been away but i am back now and would like to ask the dogooders who said; 'What would you do without the Muslim dr's and nurses'? Well now i can say, 'sleep better at night'. I am so glad they can't build a proper bombs. So come on, what sort of muslim should i trust now?

Ah, there we go....the rascism card. Yet again we have somebody on AB displaying their ignorance because they don't understand what rascism is.

Where in my post did I once refer to race? All I said is that all of the terrorism we are currently facing is perpetrated by Muslims.

This is an undeniable fact and not in any way remotely racist and to suggest such smacks of stupidity.

In the face of fundamentalist, fantatcism, the biggest danger is that we ourselves become fanatical fundamentalists.

The wonderful thing about this society is that we are able to accept those with differing opinions and live and work peacfuly with them. When we stop doing that, we are no better than the bombers. Our acceptance, our liberalism and our continued belief in a free and fair society will eventualy win over.

The idea that you cant trust Muslim doctors or nurses now, is infantile, illogical and flies in the face of basic tennats of a free and fair democratic society. It is a fundamentalist comment, born of limited intellect and an in ability to evaluate what has happened and logicaly work through your own feelings on the matter.

Should, of course, be 'racism'.

Flip-Flop, not going to argue the race card with you as not called you a racist so I hope you don't mind that. :0)

But to address the question you did pose me. It was the logic of the statment made by beerbelly I was following.

That currently the terrorism we've faced has been perpetrated by Muslim fanatics I would agree with.

That's the point isn't it China me ole mucker?

Fanatics of the religious kind. A friend of my daughters is being raised by a Christian fanatic. She likes to put her daughters head under bath water in order to cleanse her soul.

Dangerous weirdo indeed!

Exunkly!

Any religion can be used as a sh1tty stick to beat with if you'll excuse the expression but most people live quietly and peacefully. They're lives are made hell by the fanatics.

I used to know a guy who's family were very religious and took the word of God literally in everything, so all the laying on of hands to heal, speaking in tongues, witchcraft bringing down local planes, possession by devils... all that sort of thing. That they believe that is up to them and their choice.

However, there were some horrific things that happened in the past and how religious the parents (and of course then the children) became could be timed right down to some of those events. It was a way of putting your head in the sand and not facing issues that really should have been addressed. If someone was possessed by a devil then there's no way they were responsible for their actions right? (!)

Sorry reachesme, slight diversion there.
