"At least in this forum I have never seen any religious person becoming aggressive or insulting"

Yeah, you just haven't been here long enough. We used to have a couple of regulars who liked nothing better than to keep bringing their religion into damn near any discussion and then play the victim when people asked "WTF?" I think it's more than a little insulting for someone to willy-nilly toss an anti-abortion post into a thread which has nothing to do with that topic.

The ones who try to get "aggressive" - well, there are too many educated free thinkers around here for them. That type prefer know-nothings who don't have the background to argue a point (although I have found that the most aggressive are likely to be the least knowledgeable of religion arguers.). They don't usually stay here very long.

Thank....oooh, they almost had me there...

When I came first to this forum there was a poster called femynist (if I recall her name correctly) who wrote some stupid and aggressive things about emancipation.
There are more loonies like that out there, but that didn't change the way I argue with feminists. Well usually there isn't much of an agument, because I support equal rights in every circumstance.

My post was fine the first time. What, you don't remember Troy or Acrosa?

Anti-Israel or anti-Jewish??

Two different things, although your basic charge is without merit anyhow.

YOU are the only one afraid of some middle eastern Muslim terrorist attaking you in your sleep )or standing on your lawn...) - it's a recurring theme with you. You're scared to death to even put them on trial, fercryin'outloud! You're the fraidy-cat, quaking in fear because of some guy in a cave 6000 miles away.

Trust me - if a fundamentalist Muslim starts entering every thread to add an out of left field religious argument, he will be treated no differently than Troy.
