    Well it's probably understandable. But more emotional than rational, which is unusual for you and your robot heart. :biggrin:

    Avoid them? What by skiving? ;)
    I'm leaving anyway but there'll always be people like that around. In some form or another.


    I'm glad the Church of the Spaghetti Monster wasn't mentioned in here.

    I think it's rather rational.

    Even though emotion is involved.

    Especially because those radical Muslims want to kill me simply because I'm an Israeli citizen.

    Well, yeah... avoid them... by not interacting with them.

    I simply eliminate people like that from my social circle.

    By murdering them.

    Not that I'm calling you a fake jew or anything. But you don't really have to involve yourself with that centuries old posturing and xenophobia if you don't want to.

    I'm going to end up in Israel soon enough. It's not like there's anywhere else I can go.

    I just don't think that you Americans are even close to grasping what is feels like to be completely and irrationally hated for something that you have no control over.

    Ask really old black people. They might relate.

    I don't blame you.

    I can't ignore people. I listen too much. Might be a weakness.

    But all in all, people say the darnest things.

    Their need to bash religion so continuously only shows how insecure they are with their own beliefs.

    They are all just as bad. And it's not religion, it's ideology. Fixed ideas, dogma. I don't care if it's free market ideology or what. It's the same as Muhammad or Buddha or Leninism.

    And Christians have killed your fore-bearers for much much longer, in much greater numbers.

    Homosexuals aren't really that persecuted.

    They get disowned and beaten sometimes... but it's not the same.

    You're NOT the only one, darling. There are two sides to hatred. I see no love on your part either, which IS hypocritical but also understandable. It's a tough situation.

    You just need to avoid the logical fallacies and stop making yourself absolute all the time.

    And...
    I could relate. Jait probably could too.
    The Pakistan-India tension is right up there.
