Erm - how does that work??

By not basing propositions on simple yes/no statements, like yours seems to be (imho).
The fact is that the majority of the criticisms are ill-founded or based on biased reporting from inflammatory rags, and those criticisms are rebutted; however, when the same people again and again post the same sort of stuff, some people may think they have an agenda.

Good point. religion is just a belief. and when you base your whole life around what you believe but is probably not real or even proven. says a lot.
if there was no such thing as religion, I think there would be an awful lot of people not finding things to be offended by.
infact that's what religion is today. it's all about being offended and finding something to be offended by.

So it's just idiots then? there was no need to change the name afterall. it wasn't actually offensive to Muslims as those 10-20 year olds were just being idiots.

Unfortunately, there's plenty of closet racists around to keep these threads well alive.

Racist: someone who think others are less than them because they are different from them.
