Cept one would never accuse you of being a bigot if you did, which in fact you did, and no one said anything of the sort.
And this was as straight as it got.

Extremists always scream with the loudest voices because they are usually in the minority. I don't know the exact percentage of the billion+ Muslims who believe in violence to all infidels, but it's not a majority. Most of these people live meager lives and just want to be left alone to practice their faith in peace. Unfortunately their religion is be using to perform barbaric acts of violence.As far as the comparison to extreme Christians to extreme Muslims, I can't remember the last time extreme Christians killed thousands of people, beheaded innocent people, took over sections of a country with violence or kept women from voting, driving, etc. I know the most recent large movement was the IRA. But I believe that has all but stopped. Then there was the Crusades and Inquisition centuries ago. If there has been anything large scale more recently I'd be curious to know about it.
Christians make up several sects like Catholics, Protestants, Methodists, Greek Orthodox, Evangelicals, Mormons, Lutherans, Baptists, Presbyterians, etc. There are some fringe sects and people but they hardly represent most mainstream Christians.

If Lestov worded it like you did with Loaded Questions, people would have.
If someone did this, as an example:
Question for Christians
Why is your beliefs and practices so violent against non Christians. Also why do you discriminate against women? Considering Eastern culture and most of the world think how you treat women, they consider the men of Christianity turds, but you won't eat turds because its unclean. Isn't the whole religion unclean as well.
Explain
Do you see how that comes off as antagonizing to all Christians and why proper wording is important?

Could say the ethnic cleansing of Muslims in the Bosnian war fits too: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bosnian_Genocide

More reaching to Africa to find relevance when its not relevant. Liberal cronies looking for a pie in the sky to save face.

I thought the loop with never be broken with anything relevant.
But, yes, Affleck is a ragey dude who cannot argue very well. Harris pretty much owned his ass all up and down the table.
He should just pay me $100k a year to help him form his arguments that way, when he argues on TV or with movie people, he already has good arguments ready. 😆
