BC, you realize that you don't know nearly as much about Islam as you think you do, right?

I have only read the Koran, and the Book "The Truth About Mohammad" with its references to the other books the Muslims use. (and the Bible) more I do not need. I, unlike you have no need wade further into it.

The fact that you did and then corrected your error makes you an opportunistic hypocrite for defending it, both attempting to shut down debate from the position of your 'authority' without explaining the deep personal reasons you feel this political entity is hopelessly flawed, and not suited to you.

Just a thought: it would help you appear less ignorant and might make you slightly less hostile to Muslims.

Perhaps my time would be better spent developing a working knowledge of phrenology?

It is impossible to seem MORE ignorant, you see...

If you invested as much time in insulting phrenology as you did Islam, Democrats, liberals, and basically anyone who doesn't toe your line, it might make you appear less of an assinine blowhard if you bothered to better inform yourself of their opinions and motives, sure.

It's clear to everyone by now that you have no interest in not behaving like a jackass, but if you became better informed you might actually be able to compose an argument that persuaded anyone that didn't already agree with you of anything, except maybe what time it is.

Hatrack is better off without you. You certainly don't make it more 'interesting', rather it's decisively less interesting and more annoying with you in it. Nothing you've ever said that I can recall has been particularly original-I could for the same price sign up to be on a mailing list of any number of far-right frothing conservatives and get the same drivel.

Maybe even I could get some illegal medication from your drug-addicted hypocritical friend, Rush Limbaugh, while I was at it. Chortle at that, Bean Counter.

But why not chortle somewhere else? You aren't welcome. You're not wanted. You're not doing anything to further the opinions you believe in.

*shrug* He's getting plenty of food already, Will B. And from people actually (on the face of it, anyway) taking him seriously.

------------------

I can always appreciate a Rush Limbaugh fan. The irony is amusing.
