- I think Tim has got you to expose your (severe) limitations when it comes to rational discourse.

Time to stop and reflect GR! You're behaving like a keyboard-jihadist and nothing more.

Just keep educating yourself about the stench of Man and worry not about me...

France Arrests 54, Announces ‘Hate Speech’ Crackdown

What Freedom of Speech?
http://original.antiwar.com/andrew-p-na ... of-speech/

Those must have been extreme examples of 'Hate Speech', calls to kill and such like. As expected, democracy and fairness to the weaker in action when needed!

- I just hope people like you don't change our society for even worse; whereby, publishers (such as OUP) make up excuses as to why they won't publish children's stories unless they omit references to pork such as 'sausages' or 'bacon' or 'ham'!

How about banning Christmas at schools?

The problem is, we try very hard and bend over backwards whereas they won't budge an inch!

Schools are closed during Christmas.

I thought GR converted?

No, it's still a fowl.

A Turkish scholar of divinity has pointed to the following verse in the Quran with reference to the Charlie Hebdo massacre:

4:140



“And it has already come down to you in the Book that when you hear the verses of Allah [recited], they are denied [by them] and ridiculed; so do not sit with them until they enter into another conversation. Indeed, you would then be like them. Indeed Allah will gather the hypocrites and disbelievers in Hell all together”

In other words, if anybody ridicules religion, believers have to depart and leave them to it (not kill them) and they should leave the job of punishing them to Allah.

Nah… justice was served!

Nobody wins 12 lawsuits straight in the real world so they had to be transferred to the imaginary world where it makes sense!

Now they can celebrate their wins with their 72 French virgins!

Doesn't look like the Pope is a Charlie...

... but someone who goes as far as advocating ugly personal assault.

Well, are we surprised that the Catholic Pope thinks it ok to resort to Medieval Methods of Violence ...???

"...Pope Francis has defended freedom of expression following last week's attack on French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo - but also stressed its limits.

The pontiff said religions had to be treated with respect, so that people's faiths were not insulted or ridiculed.

To illustrate his point, he told journalists that his assistant could expect a punch if he cursed his mother..."

It’s naive to expect a religious leader to support Charlie’s crap!

They’ll condemn the killings alright but don’t expect them to lose any sleep over those who ridiculed them for years!
