    LOL@your level of unironic gall--a Trumpist to the bone. In what must only have been mock offense, indignation and "hysteria," you "scrutinized without hesitation" LeBrok's stat of 20% by posting your own incorrect and outdated stat while making accusations of fake news, of which I then...

    Naturally. Of course you lacked the intellectual curiosity and honesty to look beyond the first result you found. Of course. Thanks for elucidating my point.

    Trump is only "smart" in so much as he's fairly good at emotionally manipulating the scared and feeble-minded and/or those who simply share many of his crass and crude convictions but lack the honesty or self-actualization to admit as much. And even then, he still doesn't quite qualify as...

    LOL Did you seriously quote one lonely ass poll from February as if we aren't in September and haven't watched Trump hemorrhage supporters over the past 6 months? Talk about "fake" news, or at best, "outdated and disingenuous" news. https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/trump-approval-ratings/...

    Religion Can Muslims live peacefully with Christians, and vice versa?

    Thank you Monsieur. :grin: Good points and I see what you're saying; I agree with you. Wow, great example Lebrok and I completely agree. This perfectly illustrates how a very progressive, forward thinking policy that I'm sure many would resist and find to be repugnant at face value, is not...

    Religion Can Muslims live peacefully with Christians, and vice versa?

    Ugh. Just because life is complex, does not mean that the highest minded ideals and standards should not be chased and sought after. I'm not mediocre and therefore, I don't believe in accepting mediocrity and the "status-quo." As long as people remain curious and keep searching, there will...

    Religion Can Muslims live peacefully with Christians, and vice versa?

    Lebrok, I'm about to be an entrepreneur soon (and I actually come from a long line of entrepreneurs)! :laughing: Trust me, I believe in capitalism, of the balanced and humane variety; My ultimate goal is to help others but I also want my business to be profitable, and hopefully very profitable...

    1.) First off, I'm Swedish AND American, have lived in the US for at least half of my life, did my undergrad and grad studies there, and did extensive fieldwork throughout the bible belt and midwest where I intimately interacted with America's splendidly diverse peoples that included Christian...

    Religion Can Muslims live peacefully with Christians, and vice versa?

    It actually saddens me when people succumb and submit to our baser instincts as humans because we have much higher capacity and potential than other animals; for some odd reason, I tend to expect peoples who've seen and encountered the brunt of human apathy, cruelty, oppression and injustice to...

    Religion Can Muslims live peacefully with Christians, and vice versa?

    I agree with you that unbalanced or unhinged capitalism, as I like to call it, has been the bane of the world in many ways and its destructiveness by far precedes the current ongoing crisis in the Middle East > the organization of human trafficking and slavery, the dispossession of native and...

    Yes, all of that is true. It's also true that virulent anti-semitism had been deeply embedded within Europe for almost 1,000 years at that point, and so the people were more sympathetic to a message that demonized, denigrated and scapegoated Jewish people. There had also been tons of negative...

    Where did I say that you had been banned from Anthrogenica? Oh, that's right, I didn't. Seriously, pay attention. My point is that you'd never try the crap you pull here over at Anthrogenica because they don't tolerate hate speech of any type, and the community is better off for it. And you...

    1.) Untrue. The "little r racists" are the ones who placed him into power and gave him the platform to be monstrous. Let that wash over you for a minute. If it weren't for them, he would have never been in the position to do the horrible things he did. They had long received all of his...

    For f***'s sake, what are you talking about???? Where did I insult you or even come close? This is getting ridiculous. Am I allowed to be "insulted" that you are speaking to me as if I'm some sort of a child? I doubt it. You seriously need to define FOR EVERYONE ACROSS THE BOARD what...

    And the problem Lebrok is that these are the type of racists that are so insidious and ultimately do the most damage. People like Angela have this (conveniently) loaded, blown up, exaggerated notion of what it means to be a Racist, that it can only come in the form of wearing white robes and...

    Wow. This response is so egregiously unselfaware that it could pass as a conservative or Trump parody > Act arrogant, smug, condescending, patronizing and dismissive and then when challenged accordingly (in part by the utilization of similar tactics), reveal a super thin layer of skin and feign...

    A weak deflection. Is this the best you can do when you've been proven wrong? I'd expect better from you. How about you debate me with facts? Facts aren't partisan. But I guarantee that would be inconvenient for you. And "rabidly partisan?" lol What's hilarious is that you delusionally and...

    Yes, he says the racist things on his mind with no filter. It's amazing how I know tons of people with "no filter" that "pull no punches" and yet they manage to not say/do blatantly racist things. Possessing "no filter"≠ racist, or at least it shouldn't. When Trump said that the former Miss...

    Wacky news Swedish city Lund wants to acomodate Syrian ISIS fighters

    1.) Off-topic. 2.) Considering the source, I'm not surprised that it omitted important factors that determined the (unfortunate) outcome of that case. The men were charged, convicted and sentenced to 4 years + a fine, but upon appeal, they went free because the court couldn't decide who did...

    Makes sense to me--these types reek of narcissism, on a more localized, individual level and a wider cultural one as well. See how well that definition applies to these people? Supposedly, one of the causes of narcissism is severe emotional/mental abuse to the extent that the psyche erects and...
