I wonder if during the crusades people debatex the problem with globalist Catholic extremism

Or if globalist Islamic extremism existed before that.

I don't even remember it being a significant problem before we went back for round three: desert storm 2
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Islam didn't play nice prior to the crusades. Not to berate them in particular, because none of them played nice.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Genuinely interested in some examples, I don't know a huge amount of history prior to the medieval times.

Think some people fought dinosaurs, or maybe on dinosaurs or something

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Historically, and even up to the Sokoto caliphate in Nigeria a century ago, the general rule after conquering countries was to give the population a choice of converting to Islam or death. However if the Islamic leader was nice, slavery or a taxation (Jizya) could be an option.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I think islamists killed govt troops in the region this week, btw.

Islamists in Africa function without the excuse of American intervention.

Also, my problem with Judaism TBAB, as you don't seem to be getting it, is the same as Catholicism, Christianity, the Muslim faith, etc, etc, etc

It's a ridiculous belief system that's used as a veneer thin excuse for hating people who believe differently to yourself, a systematic way of amassing wealth throughout history in to the hands of a small number of people, and manipulating behaviour.

It's an excuse for systematic bigotry, racism and abuse, the world over

Sadly there are too many truths for a government to admit too.

Much like the Catholics of the middle ages then, surprise surprise, humans being diiiicks to one another in the name of their god
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I do wonder is man corrupted religion or religion corrupted man. 🀷‍♂️
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I think that was touched on earlier

Tbab believes the first, I believe the second.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Haha.

I am not a fan of fundamentalism, in any form.

Behave yourself.

I believe in God and have a personal faith.

Not a massive fan of organised " religion".

I wonder where the crossover is in religion? They all start off preaching be nice then descend into hatred of anyone not believing the same. 🀦‍♂️
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Good question.

Personally, i have a faith in God, but do not preach or judge others for not believing or being different.

Therefore, i can accept other, and do not want everyone to be Protestant, but some do, or want the world to be catholic or muslim or hindu or athiest.

Man ruins religion, imo.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Im not misbehaving, you posted it yourself

But some are loathe or afraid to call out islamist crusades, empire, conversion, sexism, homophobia, slavery, expansion and extremism??


----------------------------------------------------------------------
The same accusation is very true of you and Judaism

I hate all religion equally, and think acts committed in the name of religion is just a cowardly excuse for the true underlying bigotry or racial hatred.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
What have you against judaism?

Where have i defended judaism?

In your own time.


----------------------------------------------------------------------
You literally defending them denying Muslims a march.

I thought marches were sacred cultural rights?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
WTF, your mask has slipped.

Read what you are posting.

You say Judaism is denying muslims marching?

Antisemitism right there.

For the record, i am not advocating bans on muslim marches anywhere, and think insert has lost the plot.

What's a gram in imperial measurements?

Asking for a friend.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
0.0353 oz. Or 1/454th of a pound.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello mate can I have 0.0353 oz of Charlie please?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
So weed smokers are imperial and Charlie for the metrics? πŸ˜‚
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Only grams of weed.
3.5g=1/8 oz
7g=1/4 oz
28g=1oz
That's how they sell weed here. Guvmint and underground.

Oh, JS, how do you measure consumption of fuel in cars in the UK. Miles per litre? That just seems weird.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Mpg. But fuel is sold in litres. 🀦‍♂️ I guess to look cheaper. πŸ˜‚
----------------------------------------------------------------------
So you have to change miles to kms or litres to gallons. How fekin quaint. Titty might have a problem though with his 100g steak. I would call a 100g steak a bite.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
That's the point we don't have to change either of them they just work in the UK as they are, imperial for one thing, metric for the next, even closely related things.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
They “just work”.

But they “just cost” the economy a shiiiitload of money every year and “just waste” literally months of kids’ maths educations (it’s estimated in the US, where admittedly the problem is worse, that kids lose *a full year* of maths education across their schooling learning about both imperial and metric measures).

It’s Brexit in microcosmic form: wanting to continue to do something inefficient, contrary, nonsensical and ultimately to the detriment to public health and the public purse for the sake of literally nothing but tradition.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Can I have proof of this please. It's the first time I've ever heard of education allegedly being disrupted by learning about more things, not less.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sure.

Re. education specifically:

‘The Case for U.S. Metric Conversion Now' (Richard P. Phelphs, 1992):

'It (USA education system) teaches two systems of measurement in the schools and, the confusion from learning two systems aside, there is a cost to the time spent in teaching two systems. A full year of mathematics instruction is lost to the duplication of effort.'

http://www.edweek.org/ew/articles/1992/12/09/14phelps.h12.html

When General Motors ran a metrication program in the 1970s they created a group to monitor all of the associated costs so that they could claim them back later from the government. Then, when they discovered how much metrication was saving GM, they disbanded the metric costs accounting group

https://www.nytimes.com/1975/12/07/archives/the-quiet-revolution-america-goes-metric-going-metric.html

When the Confederation of British Industry (CBI) surveyed its members about metrication in 1980 (after 15 years of British metrication) they found that:

'... the extra cost of continuing to work in dual systems of measuring was around £5bn every year'.

For companies on which the survey was based, increased production costs were equal to 9% of the companies' gross profit and 14% of their net profit when compared to fully metric CBI companies.

Good links from the US Nat Inst of Standards and Tech here:

UK Metric Association also has some good explainers and resources:

You defended Israel teargassing and shooting Palestinians to prevent them from marching, it literally led to an outbreak of fighting in why a lot of people died, and you constantly defended Israel's right to "defend themselves"

In a war that they started by attacking Palestinian holy sites.

And SOMEHOW you have twisted your hypocrisy against Muslims to show that I'm anti-semitic?!

Nothing I have posted is anti semitic ffs. Straw clutching and deeply insulting.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
I respect other religions and faith.

That does not mean i ignore extremism, abuse, wealth or corruption....all of which are secular traits too.

Stalin, Hitler, Mao.

Christianity is not racist, bigotted or encouraging abuse.

Like other religions, some christians abuse power, but that ignores all the good christians and good deeds or works, which is not very open minded or tolerant.

Just reaffirms my position that religious matches should be banned
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Which has been my point for 10 pages.

At least religious sites are involved in the Palestinian march, but just go there separately to enjoy them or something ffs

Just prior to this post, I had to go back 6 pages to prove you had said something which you were denying


Absoloute mess, you wonder why people are rude to you?

Fabricating my views
Denying what you have posted
Then getting desperate and accusing me of being anti-semitic for literally 0 reason.
