You mean by pointing out misstatements and illogical arguments? That's attacking?

But you don't. You claim they may be misstatements or illogical, but I can only think of one instance where you point out the illogic. And your point was correct, except that you made it without looking into the issue at all.

In the mean time you bring up attacks against religious groups (when I talked about having seen some footage and saying I don't like such pictures), statistics in general (without even beginning to review the data presented to you), and the people who present them to you.

Believe you're being moderate and rational if you like. I define those words differently.

Shalom.

I pointed out that religious groups use videos such as the one you mentioned as part of their fundraising techniques. That's a charge you neither denied or made any attempt to refute, nor did you deny that this is where you saw the video in question. Sort of validates my point don't you think? And that's not an attack. It's a truthful statement.

statistics in general (without even beginning to review the data presented to you)

I wasn't presented the data to review. I was expected to accept the statistics at face value, something I would never do no matter what the topic.

and the people who present them to you

I'm supposed to review the people I have discussions with on FR? How am I to do that?
