I think Haqi believes (although I can't be sure like HE is about everything) that merely stating that one does not like his religion (or that one- gasp- hates his religion) is persecution enough. Having a contrary opinion and voicing it is persecution.

I am much more persecuted than I realized. So are you.

CB,
I'm talking about certain people on this thread. One of them is enthralled with the texts of Buddhism, even though they have been changed to adapt to the conceptions of kings and priests for centuries to fit their own human agendas, and even the original texts which are dated about 100 years after Guatama's death start out with the words that translate to, "it was heard" but not confirmed that Guatama even said the words, and then turns right around and proclaims her HATE for the Bible. If she doesn't believe in it, so be it but, to rant and rave hate is another story. But I see that she thinks that to hate is just peachy keen. I've talked to a lot of people with varying beliefs and thoughts but have never met one that thought hate was a good thing and then proclaimed themselves to be a "good" person. The only reason for such thinking that comes to mind is that, through self love, she construes herself to be "good".

BTW, in case anyone wonders why I do not respond to her posts, it is because I clearly told her I would not do so, and have no intention of going back on my word. I do not correspond with anyone that advocates hate. ~H~
