Most believers here bray on that Dawkins is a bigot because he says bad things about Islam...

Then a believer (you) states that he is just a coward because he won't go to Riyadh and espouse these opinions because he might get killed by people who follow Islam...

Don't you see the delicious irony in what you are saying?

Well then this should be easy to settle. trotsky Aug 2013 #18

How much more clearly can I be? Fortinbras Armstrong Aug 2013 #29

No, it's your attitude to DUers that is the problem muriel_volestrangler Aug 2013 #30

Agreed! hrmjustin Aug 2013 #31

Gosh, I dislike bigots -- something which you find objectionable Fortinbras Armstrong Aug 2013 #33

If you are maintaining that calling DUers 'Dawkins worshippers' is talking to 'bigoted people' muriel_volestrangler Aug 2013 #34

Yeah, yeah... Fix The Stupid Aug 2013 #28

If you don't want people to focus on certain words, use different words. rug Aug 2013 #32
