I don’t recall starting a thread and when I do post, I try to be respectful of sincere differences that are not incompatible with my own though at difference. Example: Islam commands killing infidels, I reject that and label it the religion of Satan. Am I therefore a Muslim basher? Yes, I am and proud of it I’ll explain that more thoroughly when I respond to another post.

I find what you are saying quite sensible but still lacking in a philosophical expression of principle. I think we are close and my intention was never a hostile engagement with Jim Robinson, though he is responding as if it were.

You want philosophical? "Christian Bashing," in my opinion, is forcing a moral equivalency between cultures to make a derogatory point when no such social equivalency exists. Using a few outlier examples to cast dispersions on the whole is the problem.

The debate is on how many makes an outlier versus a trend versus a pattern versus a norm.
