Ofcourse it includes it -what part of "I myself am disgusted by any hate spew directed to a general religious group.." did you not understand?
Ah yes, here's the bow we all know...Yes you "twit" - I'm saying that hate-spew against the Muslim religion is almost non-existent HERE.
Understand yet? or do I need to increase my font size for you to understand? Smaller/shorter words?

Im pretty sure that anyone that had anything hateful to say about muslims was banned or warned about it long ago.
Exactly. But yet hate-spew towards other religions is somehow acceptable here. Whodda thunk it...

Attacking ones beliefs whether they be Religious or Political should be fair game. It's perfectly alright for you to attack Democrats for their beliefs or their actions. Same goes for Religions and those who follow them.Originally posted by: Crimson

I was banned for telling someone to get a job.. Is having a job the same as race now? What if I told a Chistian to get a job.. would I be banned then, or would it be a wash since Christian bashing is accepted, but ripping people for not getting a job is not?
What about Gays? Is it acceptable to trash them in this forum because its a choice that gay people make? Can I refer to gays as durogatory slang words in this forum? If not, why is allowed against Christians?
And, since there is a rule against personal attacks, why are personal attacks directed at Christians not enforced? Is this like a math equation? 1 personal attack + 1 christian = 0 rules broken? Wait, that doesn't add up.. but it seems like the math that is being used here.

There is certainly some truth in what you say, though I think you've grossly overstated it. More importantly, however, I suspect your "outrage" vanishes in a blink if I take your complaints and replace "Christianity" with "Islam". There are certainly many people here -- people on your end of the political spectrum -- who openly and entusiastically demonstrate religious hatred towards Muslims.Originally posted by: Crimson
Religious hatred is openly accepted, and I would even go so far as saying its almost endorsed by the powers that be here at Anandtech, because its simply NEVER stopped. I am not even a very religious person, but I support many of the same positions that they do, and I find it absolutely disgusting the amount of bigotry thats allowed on this forum toward religious people. If the same hatred were applied toward gays, lesbians, blacks, mexicans, etc, the people saying it would be banned in a heartbeat. I'm absolutely certain I could take a post made by some in these forums bashing religious folks, and simply replace the words 'fundamentalist' with 'gay', and I would be banned before my fingers left the keyboard.
Thats simply not right, and I think the OP is making a good point in saying that the generalizations and hatred needs to stop. Bigotry doesn't only apply to gays and minorities, it also applies to the majority, or a large group. Anandtech should not allow it toward ANY group.
As for myself, I have no problem with Christians, including fundamentalists, as long as they are sincere and as long as they keep their beliefs to themselves. I have major problems with the hypocrites and the zealots who are determined to impose their beliefs on everyone else. Unfortunately, these are the very "Christians" who tend to be most visible and vocal, power- and money-hungry crooks who use religion as a smoke screen to mask their malfeasance.

We are discussing this forum, and not the world as a whole. In this forum, Christians are most certainly NOT the ruling majority. And the reason I left the forums for a while was it was nothing but a whining bunch of crybabies who lost an election, I needed a break after the election.. I'm refreshed now and willing to go back to pointing out the fallacies of the left.

If you would actually try paying attention to my post you'd understand your attempted claim of hypocrisy doesn't hold up. There isn't "rampant hateful stereotyping of Muslims." here as you seem to want to claim. If you can show us where this "rampant hateful stereotyping of Muslims." is on this forum then you may have a small point - but you have decided to ignore/duhvert from trying to back up your claim instead of addressing it.
*shrug* If it wasn't so typical, I'd be surprised.
