I will not continue any discourse with you. Rational debate can be enjoyable; bickering with people who are too rude to know any better is not. I simply do not associate with people with your obvious lack of manners. You do not appear to have any self-respect; otherwise you would not act the way you do.
There are too many interesting people in the world for me to be wasting time with the likes of you.
I never used the word "expert." You're showing your ass again. You musn't put words in peoples' mouths like that. That's what we have CNN for.
You stated as well as implied that I knew nothing about Islam "because you had (and I quote) 'lived in the ME'," and then used that as a basis for the implication that you knew all that there was to know about Islam on matters as they would pertain to this issue. That to me, and to most people, would be considered an "expert" for one or more reasons.

Oh, I can certainly see why. I've been pretty rational frankly. You're the one that's been hurling malicious denunciations of me personally.

Your posts, and read them back if you will, including this one, have been nothing more than opinions of me with barely anything to engage ourselves in rationally as you say you enjoy. So can the pitch and at least take a peek in the mirror toots. Your very first post to me was pure opinion driven as well as supportive of my first point in this thread, and laid out absolutely nothing for us to "engage in rational debate."
If you'd have addressed the points in my post #71, then perhaps there would have been. But I'll tell ya what, if you really think that you're the polemical expert that apparently you think you are, then go back to that post, and address it. We can then engage in "rational debate" there. Otherwise, the sum total of your posts with perhaps one exception, has been nothting short of an entirely opinionated rant for which no one can counter your arguments "because you lived in the ME." Boy howdy.
And that's "rational?" Sure it is...

Naturally. Usually the response when losing an argument for lack of fielding a team. Very well then, we'll call it a draw!
