You are utterly and completely wrong, as usual. trotsky Oct 2016 #25

Naw, I just like to point out when you're wrong. trotsky Oct 2016 #30

Is that a quote from the Koran? trotsky Oct 2016 #35

This message was self-deleted by its author guillaumeb Oct 2016 #37

If you apologize for fabricating a quote from the Koran, I will forgive you. trotsky Oct 2016 #39

No apology, no forgiveness. trotsky Oct 2016 #48

You're piling up new invented quotes, this time from me Albertoo Oct 2016 #38

Apparently some people think dishonesty is something that must be tolerated. trotsky Oct 2016 #40

Not sure where you're going. Not sure you know either. Albertoo Oct 2016 #57

You've pretty much described how most discussions with him go. trotsky Oct 2016 #59

It would be interesting to quantitatively measure why people believe Albertoo Oct 2016 #68

Yes, that is the core contradiction at the heart of the argument guillaumeb tries to champion. trotsky Oct 2016 #73

Not all intolerance is bad. Why are you painting with such a broad brush? trotsky Oct 2016 #7

Yes, it is. rug Oct 2016 #8

An attempt at word play? guillaumeb Oct 2016 #10

No, a request for clarification, since you didn't specify. trotsky Oct 2016 #14

No, you are ignoring what does not fit your predetermined narrative. guillaumeb Oct 2016 #19

"you are ignoring what does not fit your predetermined narrative." trotsky Oct 2016 #22

Yes, your intolerance for religion is obvious. guillaumeb Oct 2016 #24

LMAO! trotsky Oct 2016 #26

Yes, your pattern of intolerance continues. guillaumeb Oct 2016 #29

LMAO! trotsky Oct 2016 #31

In my opinion, trotsky's pattern of saltpoint Oct 2016 #47

Here, here! Believers get owned every day here. Comical. N/T Fix The Stupid Oct 2016 #49

I spoke in support of trotsky's posts on saltpoint Oct 2016 #51

This guillaumeb Oct 2016 #56

You make the discussion personal when the personal saltpoint Oct 2016 #60

In a dialogue such as this, viewpoints are advanced. guillaumeb Oct 2016 #64

That's one navigation, but it does not respect saltpoint Oct 2016 #71

An apt name. guillaumeb Oct 2016 #54

Ha! Back atcha, FTS. trotsky Oct 2016 #67

Deonstrating intolerance for religion is a positive? guillaumeb Oct 2016 #53

If 'intolerance' is judged independent of those saltpoint Oct 2016 #55

Now you are attempting to add to the stated idea that intolerance is a human condition. guillaumeb Oct 2016 #63

Whether a set of traits is endemic obscures saltpoint Oct 2016 #70

Starting with your first assertion: guillaumeb Oct 2016 #75

I most certainly am asserting the role of saltpoint Oct 2016 #76

The role of any social construct is to provide a framework for social interaction. guillaumeb Oct 2016 #80

No, their role includes, but is not limited to, "a framework saltpoint Oct 2016 #81

Social groups are by their name groups of whatever makes up the society. guillaumeb Oct 2016 #83

Humans like to believe that they are not saltpoint Oct 2016 #85

If by "that process" you are referring to socialization, guillaumeb Oct 2016 #86

"While admitting to the worst of all possible saltpoint Oct 2016 #87

Interesting points, and in addition, guillaumeb Oct 2016 #90

But the resistance = intolerant of change saltpoint Oct 2016 #91

Resistance to change does not automatically equate with intolerance. guillaumeb Oct 2016 #96

guillaumeb, when resistance to change saltpoint Oct 2016 #103

When the resistance is in spite of a change that has been proven to be better, guillaumeb Oct 2016 #105

We could make a very long list of saltpoint Oct 2016 #107

Galileo and Copernicus both. guillaumeb Oct 2016 #108

Good stuff, and you're doing it saltpoint Oct 2016 #109

Trump is indeed evidence of emotion over understanding. guillaumeb Oct 2016 #110

The religious right, at least since the Nixon saltpoint Oct 2016 #111

The extremes receive more attention. guillaumeb Oct 2016 #112

Thank you for the kind words, saltpoint. n/t trotsky Oct 2016 #66

Hey there. saltpoint Oct 2016 #69

The pope has said that gay marriage is from satan and will destroy the family. Goblinmonger Oct 2016 #42

I disagree with that viewpoint. eom guillaumeb Oct 2016 #46

No, you're being 'intolerant' of their beliefs... Fix The Stupid Oct 2016 #50

No, you obviously do not. guillaumeb Oct 2016 #58

How intolerant of you. n/t trotsky Oct 2016 #61

That sounds a lot like "unwillingness or refusal to tolerate or respect opinions or beliefs" Goblinmonger Oct 2016 #62

What I said a short time ago: guillaumeb Oct 2016 #65

The pope and his church... trotsky Oct 2016 #74

Not quite. guillaumeb Oct 2016 #78

Yes that's all fine and dandy that we accept other people can have opinions. trotsky Oct 2016 #88

Your agenda and style of argument are hereby noted. guillaumeb Oct 2016 #92

Ah yes, your standard answer when you've been shown to be wrong. trotsky Oct 2016 #94

Ayup. Iggo Oct 2016 #16

I tolerate religious bullshit all the live-long day. (n/t) Iggo Oct 2016 #15

As I do with non-religious nonsense. eom guillaumeb Oct 2016 #20

Oh, yeah, the nonsensical stuff is the worst, right? Iggo Oct 2016 #27

What IS interresting/ironic/illuminating guillaumeb Oct 2016 #32

I hate, hate, HATE religion. I tolerate it, because it's not going anywhere. Iggo Oct 2016 #34

I appreciate your tolerance in spite of your hate. It says a lot about you. guillaumeb Oct 2016 #36

So why post it in the Religion group? immoderate Oct 2016 #82

It was posted partially in response to another post, partly to illustrate guillaumeb Oct 2016 #84

Christ on a popsicle stick. trotsky Oct 2016 #89

Perhaps you misread the original question posted by another responder. guillaumeb Oct 2016 #93

I read it perfectly well. trotsky Oct 2016 #95

Given that the question was asked as to why I posted in "religion", guillaumeb Oct 2016 #97

"focusing on one particular institution, religion in this case, is indicative to me of an agenda" trotsky Oct 2016 #98

If an individual concentrates on posting negative stories about religion, guillaumeb Oct 2016 #99

The "supposed" intolerance of religion and believers? trotsky Oct 2016 #100

And add to "the supposed intolerance" guillaumeb Oct 2016 #101

And back you go to the straw man. You sure did show that fictitious atheist guy that you hate. trotsky Oct 2016 #102

Do you live in 17th century America? guillaumeb Oct 2016 #104

Of course not, which is why I said: trotsky Oct 2016 #106

Well said! Jim__ Oct 2016 #72

What an interresting citation. Thanks for the link. guillaumeb Oct 2016 #77
