And thats no excuse. You're an arse hole for even thinking it let alone writing it. What would your mother say?
What exactly did I say that was so bad? The guy comes in here thanking the same God for his children that so many other people's children are being killed in the name of. I think it is not only justified but it is essential to constantly remind Muslims of that. And I intend to rub their faces in it at every goddamned opportunity I get. Hell, you guys give U.S. Christians more grief than that for just wanting to control what their children are taught in schools. It is your hypocrisy that is showing here, not mine. I am entirely consistent in my posts. "Patriotism is the first refuge of a patriot."

This has nothing to do with the US. There are loonies here that want to teach ID but that is beside the point.

It is precisely the point. ID is being presented in the name of Christianity - all Christians are responsible for what is done in their name, and that makes them even more responsible for confronting and defeating the "loonies" which is why I confronted them on the ID thread. In exactly the same way, Muslims are collectively responsible for all of the evil that is done in the name of their religion and they are especially responsible for dealing with it. Their reaction to the evil growing in their midst should be precisely the same as our civilization's was to the threat of fascism and communism - a single minded and unequivocal condemanation of it and a devotion to its defeat and destruction. That might make me an asshole, but it makes you a hypocrit and a coward for not having the moral conviction to hold them to that simple civil obligation.

I disagree. One of my friends is Italian and she is a Catholic. She does not believe in ID. Should I hold her responsible for the fact that a US backwater is teaching ID in class?

Took the US long enough. If you had of got your head out of your arse in '39 or '40 it would have been a different story. Instead you let US companies like IBM profit from the Nazis until the Japs brought it to your front door. Wanker

Bitching everywhere. Argueing with every ID proponent I know (and I know several) about what a stupid idea it is. Going to church and making my feelings known. And raising my children to appreciate the concept of responsibility. EDIT - And my logic is never flawed.

And if we had intervened earlier, FDR would still be known as that interventionist bastard that killed all those innocent Germans and Japanese just to control the wealth of central Europe and the Pacific.

So you express a lot of hot air. That doesnt that suprise me. You havent changed the fact it is being taught in your schools so according to your logic it is your fault and you are a failure.

I disagree (just for a change). You ended up with a lot of influence over those parts of the world anyway. And what you didnt get the USSR got and that went well didnt it :rolleyes:

Bullshit. The very minute my community tries to put ID in the school my children go to I will immediately be in their faces about it. I oppose it, and other issues, as vocally and forcibly as I can at every possible opportunity. And if I were a Muslim, I would be takeing a stand against fundamentalism in precisely the same way.

Thats insane. Germany had Europe in the palm of its hand. Neither the Soviets or the Brits could have held out for a month without all the material the US was providing from a very early date. You can't blame the American people for being initially reluctant for getting involved in yet another European fiasco. I mean, crap, we Americans are descended from those who escaped the farce that passes for European politics in the first place and than have to go back and sacrifice generation after generation to save these same assholes from themselves. And lets not even get into the Battle of the Coral Sea where the American navy saved Australia for a Japanese invasion that would have easily led to the conquest of your entire hapless little continent.

Not you thank God but the Japanese seemed to have some interest acording to you. I wish there was a smily for giving you the finger. And I still say you're an arse hole. I cant get over what you said to thet guy who was obviously so happy about the birth of his child. I dont know anyone apart from you guys here who actually have anything good to say about the US. When I was living in Europe it was amazing the way people would treat me once they know I was Asutralian and not British or American. I am and always will be proud to be an Aussie and proud of what our armed forces have achieved. You guys should have a look at what we did in East Timor.
