[QUOTE="Snipes_2"] I was arguing over the amount of lives taken, not the overall population...

Really? Because that's not what you said at all: He said there are very few extremists. You said: "A Few", how many suicide bombings and Attempted bombings have there been in the past 5 years around the world?" You are clearly challenging him on the number of extremists. You make no mention at all of lives.

[QUOTE="Ninja-Hippo"][QUOTE="Snipes_2"] Of course it is, 1.2 billion is a lot of people. Snipes_2
So if you agree with this assertion why did you argue against it?

I was arguing over the amount of lives taken, not the overall population...

Now you're trying to revise what happened in this thread. But it's not going to work.

You started talking about the number of lives in response to comments saying that the number of extremists is small.

Nobody was saying that the number of lives taken was small. So why would you need to argue about that? That doesn't wash.

Well, yeah. Hitler was a Catholic and justified his behavior with his version of Catholicism.

[QUOTE="Snipes_2"] Why is citing the number of lives taken Fallacious. It's simple addition, find cases where Muslim (Extremists)have bombed and killed people in the world and Add them together to get a pretty accurate number.

Only that's not what you've done at all. You've tossed a random and extreme number out there (one million in 15 years :?) based on no statistical analysis whatsoever.

Simple addition but fallacious. When you count the extremist individuals in order to determine what percentage of the Muslim population they make up, you count the extremist individuals, not the people they killed as well.

What, you think it was a coincidence that Austria and Germany were two of the most strongly Catholic countries in Europe at a time when the Catholic Church held the Jews collectively responsible for deicide, and that Hitler grew up in a Catholic family? Heh.

I can't believe people are trying to say the Holocaust was perpetrated by Catholicism...Wow. So, Now I can definitively say 9/11 was caused by Muslims?

That wasn't the point I was making so...I already stated compared to the supposed 1.2 billion followers extremists wouldn't make up a large percentage.

[QUOTE="Maniacc1"]Hmm this is interesting. Although I think free speech will always win.worlock77

Free speech isn't absolute, nor does it win when that speech is in violation of the law.

I think it'd be hard to stop it in this situation though. After all, when a city in a local Jewish town refused to administer a parade permit (they marched anyway, making it illegal) to a KKK clan, the courts upheld their freedom of speech.

Well, yeah. Hitler was a Catholic and justified his behavior with his version of Catholicism.

Ehh, not quite. Hitler used Christianity in as much as it helped further him and his party. By 1940 however he spoke disdainfully of it, calling it "a Jewish dogma".

How is the number of lives taken not comparable to the number of extremists. You don't know how many extremists there are, whereas I posted a link stating how many People were killed by Extremists over a time period.

Yet that was literally the exact opposite of what you said to begin with. He said there were few extremists, to which you replied 'A few?' and then asked him how many terrorists plots there have been lately. How is that claiming that there are more than a relatively few number of extremists? How can you say that this was not what you were arguing when that it is *literally* the exact words you said?

I'm not reading your stupid irrelevant links.

What I am saying is that a small amount of people can kill a large amount of people, thus the amount of being killed has no bearing on the number of extremists.

What is difficult to understand about that?

Since this seems to have turned into (yet another :P) debate over whether it's right or wrong, let me say this: I cannot think of a single reason how anyone, especially those of religious belief systems, can justify the actions of these people.

No. The point that the amount of people extremists killed is relevant to when discussing how big a percentage of the entire Muslim population they make up, since you posted the comment about how many they have killed in direct response to a comment about them (the extremists) being in the minority of the Muslim population.

He said there were a few extremists. You challenged that saying 'a few?' and then questioning the number of terrorist plots that have happened lately. How you can say you were making no comment on the number of extremists being larger than 'a few' is beyond me.

[QUOTE="Teenaged"][QUOTE="Snipes_2"] You would like that wouldn't you? Too bad it's not the case because again, you're going on what you think I meant by my own post...""A Few", how many suicide bombings and Attempted bombings have there been in the past 5 years around the world?" " No, It wasn't. Like I've been saying, it's to point out the number of extremists and the amount of lives they have taken. This obviously doesn't make any mention of a large number of extremists making up the entire population of the Muslim Religion. Snipes_2

Then your response was utterly irrelevant.

No it wasn't. IT was pointing out the number of lives taken by extremists.

And what is the point of that?

[QUOTE="Snipes_2"][QUOTE="Teenaged"]I like how minutes ago you told me that wasnt your point while now you continue to defend it.... :?GreySeal9

Defend the point of how many people were killed by extremists? Which is what I said my point was?

Why are you making that point? What is the intention behind that point?

My point is, that you can't definitively state how many extremists there are, since they don't take polls on such things. Somehow that was twisted into "You believe all Muslims are Terrorists!"

[QUOTE="Snipes_2"][QUOTE="Ninja-Hippo"][QUOTE="Snipes_2"] I was not "Pinning" anything on the People...

Then why even discuss the number of extremists compared to the number of muslims in the world if you concede that it is completely irrelevant? Also - you don't pin blame for 9/11 on normal, everyday muslims do you?

I'm pretty sure I already said I don't blame the "People". I never compared the number of Extremists to everyday Muslims.

So just so i'm clear on this, you don't think normal every day muslims should be blamed for 9/11?

But you yourself admitted (when you were backpeddling) that the number is likely to be small, so why are you going back on that.

And what does the number of lives taken have to do with that anyway?

Yes it was. GreySeal mentioned that extremists are just a few compared to the entire Muslim population. How many those extremists have killed doesnt change the fact that they (the extremists) make up a small percentage of the Muslim population. SO YES. IT WAS. UTTERLY. IRRELEVANT.

No, that's not what happened. What happened was that one person said there are relatively few terrorists. You responded in disagreement. You think the idea of saying that there are relatively few muslim terrorists is wrong, seeing as you disagreed with it. Right? :?

Funny how threads like these always turn into cat-and-mouse chases as snipes strenuously avoids being held to account for his previous statements.

It's like he thinks we have short memories or lack the ability to scroll back in the thread.

If you were a christian, and your actions have no purpose but are clearly upsetting to a large number of people, surely the christian thing to do is to stop it? :(

[QUOTE="Snipes_2"]

My my, isn't that convenient. What about the Bible burning? That was perfectly fine.

Ultimas_Blade

Why are you whining again? One could inference that you support this foolish act.

Don't you care about what'll happen to our soldiers?

Calls for sense and sensitivity fall on deaf ears :|

I don't support this in the least.. BUT the whole "this endangers our soldiers" is ridiculous.. For all we know Paris Hilton's lifestyle can endanger our soldiers.. Should we curb that too? How bout what Glenn Beck says? Or Obermen? This is not a legitimate reason to stop this from happening.. Especially when your dealing with extremists that are going to be violent basically what ever they do.. Do you really want to save soldiers? Get them the hell out of that region.. Its quite simple really.
