I'm cool with both, as long as we're talking about both religions as a concept. I can't get behind hating someone for their religion though, but I don't know where you stand on that. Hating Islam and hating muslims are two very different things imo

He lives among Christians so he's tolerant of them but doesn't live among Muslims so **** them basically.

What happens if someone doesn't get a majority? Do we have a runoff? :D

Lisnaholic 12-12-2017 04:07 PM

^ HaHa! I don't have a plan for that contigency just yet...

We don't know what's happening in Alabama, but at least on MB Roy Moore is losing big time to Doug Jones. In what one political commentator has described as "a referendum on human decency," my opinion is that MB is redeeming itself after giving the win to Trump in the 2016 MB General Election.
Let's hope real Alabama copies MB's virtual Alabama!

But you're cooler with the people who practice Christianity than you are with the people who practice Islam because you're more familiar with them.

No, I’m not. I’m cool with both for regular ****. I’ve only known a handful of Muslims but they’ve all been alright. Christians are the ones who impose **** on me. Muslims aren’t much of a problem in America. Christians are a huge problem in America. Worldwide both religions are always imposing their **** on everyone.

I mean Leeds is pretty white but still diverse, but when I go to Bradford it's like a completely different city. So many muslims and most of the shops there are for muslims.

As a white American, I understand that I don’t really belong here either so I don’t want to actively discriminate against other cultures. We’re all just exploiting what was stolen by a disgraceful genocide against Native Americans. And blacks really have a more justified case for being here because their ancestors were kidnapped and taken by force. The rest of us are part of something that destroyed something that wasn’t ours so we’re all ****.

But man if I were English I seriously wouldn’t be having that ****. England cannot be English unless it’s English. If you want to know how overwhelming immigration works out ask a Cherokee. I look at these European countries and think damn y’all finally got a pretty good thing going and now you’re just going to allow yourself to become an extension of the Middle East? It’s like liberal policies that make sense in America have been imposed on Europe where they don’t make sense. ****ing huge Palestinian demonstrations in Sweden? Europe is ****ing insane to let that **** happen. I can understand where groups like the Azov Battalion is coming from because seriously Ukraine has a right to be Ukrainian. I think Europeans would be wise to protect their national identities.

In the first 12 hours of this poll, Doug Jones got seven votes and Roy Moore got one. Then, between 5:30 and 6:30 MB time, RM got nine more votes, while DJ stayed at seven.

Is anyone else surprised at a voting pattern like that?

Pssst.

Israel is completely surrounded by countries that hate them. They tolerate the small skirmishes but if Israel ever tried killing the bear it would be WWIII.

Israel is the occupier after all.

^ Yes, it's been nail-biting stuff, but isn't Doug Jones's victory just a projection; not exactly official yet, but I'm hoping...

Oh ok I guess we should let those countries control what Israel can and can't do then. Should work out.

I'm not certain of how great my filter is but I can at least tell when someone else's is the ridiculous result of manipulation. What can I say? You've ruined my ability to take you seriously. It takes a little more effort than just repeating that you have the facts to shake that on any given subject.
