Yeah, says me. I've worked and lived in the Middle East for two and a half years and I'm still here. I believe that lends me a little credibiity.
What are your sources? CNN?
P.S. An entire region or religion does not Saudi Arabia make.
And "you get this?" What, questions? Yes, you get questions. If those are too tough, or offensive, then you're simply in the wrong place.
So, you've lived in the Middle East so that makes you an expert on Islamic ideology.
OK, I'll bite!!!
Go to post #71 then and please reconcile for me, not ala CWOJackson, the First Amendment, you know, the founding tenet of our entire nation as outlined in the Bill of Rights and Constitution, and the references that I cited from the Koran. And since you've lived in the ME, you'll understand the importance of the Koran to muslims. In fact, it's so important to them that the paper of one Koran is worth more than the life of a non-muslim.
So you want an intelligent debate, start with #71 and let me know:
A. Do you see any conflicts between the 1st Amendment vice that which is contained in the Koran as cited.
and B. What might that mean over the long haul to our nation?
Let's see if you can "not follow in CWOJackson's footprints of admitting that there's a conflict, but then running away like a 5-year old girl from the ensuing debate.
Offended? Then leave. They're simple challenges there Allegra! Nothing more.
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.
