Where did those comments come from? Wowie Kazowie
I thought I thoroughly insulted the societies that base their rules on personal honor, and you think I was defending them. Lawd Almighty, don't that beat all!
Anywho, I tracked down a nise essay from a college perfesser that downrite splains dis. Mebbe Iyull post it, but be forewarned, it has lots of 4 or 5 syllabalical wurds and talkz bout dem dere idears.
Reply to post 8: I agree, their is nothing to "dialogue about" until the Muslims that don't believe in violence come forward to denounce the crazies. I'm guessing the violence will never be denounced. What my Vietnamese aunt says, Doom on you (sp)?
From this statement of yours....
"You never diss a society based on honor killings."
"You" used in this form in a sentence means "everyone" and or a belief held by you personally.
It's a nuance I am sure is difficult for someone who is possibly a first or second generation English speaker.
One way to properly express this if it was not your own belief would be: "The PC crowd at the Vatican never diss' a society based on honor killings."
This would clarify that the statement is not what you believe. Alternately you can take a tip from the Pope and quote someone else. LOL
By the way..thanks for the hilarious clarification.
