    You could also change the last line to: "7) The world's conservative Christian community has brought this upon themselves... by being or supporting murderous psychopaths, by promot…

    Near East is a big and poorly defined area. Israel is in the Near East according to the US State Department, but not according to the Library of Congress (which is a little odd as …

    So you are saying that if you are uncomfortable with your experience of discrimination then you should change your appearance to appease your persecutor? Do you make this crap up y…

    Just because a utility function can be defined for a given perspective doesn't mean that it automatically makes sense from within that perspective, given that defining a utility fu…

    If you have walked a mile in someone else's shoes, you can then say whatever you like. For one thing, you are now a mile away, and for another, you also have their shoes. (Not mean…

    The USA with the UK blew up the Chinese embassy in Belgrade and George Bush called the Iraq and Afghanistan wars a crusade, which is the Christian form of the term jihad. I suspect…

    I'm not sure I agree with that saying. There would seem to be overwhelming evidence against it for one thing.

    The complexion doesn't matter, they are religions, not ethnicities. Also you are likely to get an even bigger reaction as you would probably then be viewed by some people as some k…

    If I were a muslim girl getting discriminated against for wearing a hijab, I'd stop wearing the hijab. So you would, I guess, also suggest that Sikhs should stop wearing turbans, J…

    No, just arguing against your suggestion that they are not crimes if they are not detected by straightforward means. If someone detects a murder by extremely technological means, s…

    Murders are detectable outside of homes. Is someone missing? Yes? Then start an investigation. They could be missing already, or be unregistered kids, or recently arrived unregiste…
