not rude at all

I have no problem with that.

"if you think that from my comment i run around taking peoples heads off and yelling allah akbar then your mind is running away from you."

That is not at all what I said. What I actually wrote was :

'Consider yourself like those Muslims who we've seen beheading people while shouting 'Allah Akbar'. You're not as extreme as that - but you hold exactly the same supremacist delusions. Despite living in the West, you still see people in your host society as below you.'

see http://www.danielpipes.org/comments/134842

BTW, which part of that was rude exactly? Did I attack you personally other than to make the comment that you're probably lacking in intelligence for thinking that indiscriminate breeding of people of one race (or philosophy) in this case is going to solve any of the world's problems?

If I state the things as I see it - should I sugar coat it so it is acceptable for you to hear? If you don't want to know what people really think - you have a strange idea of 'truth'. You can cocoon yourself by surrounding yourself with people who believe what you believe, but that does nothing for the frank and open and honest sharing of views does it?

Obviously you're not going to go around cutting off people's heads shouting 'Allah akbar' - what would the neighbours think? I did not say that you were. The point I am making is that what you will do for your beliefs and what those criminals do differs only in degree. Those criminals think that their beliefs give them carte-blanche to commit such heinous and inhuman acts. You might just settle for an irrational, unreasoned and unjustified mild/strong dislike of Jews for example. Those Islamist criminals think their beliefs are superior - that they are superior and their victims are sub-human and actually deserve to be killed. It is a supreme delusion brought about by a supremely deluded interpretation of their 'religion'.

The commonality between you and those criminals is you share the same 'supreme' revelation of truth - and everything else is falsehood. Time and again people on this forum have pointed out the glaring inconsistencies in your belief system, the disparity between the ideals and the actuality - but no Muslim is willing to concede that , yes, there might just be sometruth in the points that are made.

Thoe Islamist criminals think it's OK to slice through other people's necks, stone women to death etc - you seem to believe that it's OK for you to out-breed other races/religions - without at all thinking it through - purely and simply because - in your brain, at this point in time - you 've arrived at that conclusion - therefore it has to be that way.

Do you seriously think your race/philosophy is better/truer/more exalted/holier/more noble etc etc. than others. That's an incredibly arrogant attitude to have and shows a real lack of awareness on your part given the myriad facts that point entirely in the other direction.
