No one can read another person's mind. And "reading minds" is a form of "making it personal" and therefore not tolerable on the Religion Forum.

More to the point, there is nothing wrong with saying the Freeper's statement is hateful. But it is out of line (and incites flame wars) to say the Freeper who made the statement is hateful.

Some of those who toss around hateful statements like grass seed also say that they are doing it out of love. And we do not know their hearts.

We can and do however determine that certain sources exist for the purpose of inciting hatred. And those sources - or sources that link to the sources - are forbidden. These include Jack Chick, Jesus-is-Lord.com, Vdare, KKK, Aryan Nations, Christian Identity, the false Jesuit Oath, the false Oath of the Knights Columbus, etc.

I hate to be obnoxious, but I bet none of those sources are Catholic.

Which is while I specifically used the phrase "ordinarily considered."

Islamofascists often go out of their way to affirm that they believe Jews to be "people of the Book" and to say that they don't hate the Jews -- yet they are determined to destroy Israel.
