"Solon's rant was a mixture of hatred of the culture, the people, the nations, and the religion" No. Just of the religion. If people are to believe absolutely in words, it is important that those words do not counsel the superiority of race, culture, and religion over others. I have every right to hate doctrines that I consider ugly and hateful. I cannot think of much more hateful than a supposedly Holy book describing non believers as "infidels" and counselling their death. And you think you are going to pull a self righteous act on me?

"Every one of the Middle Eastern states is as corrupt as they come. The people who live under the despotic tyranny are the usual mix of decent and scum. The governments that are dictatorship are just that, dictatorial. You could use Fulgham's "All I really need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten" as a doctrine and it wouldn't come out any different." Spoken with far more rancor than I used but you have the right to express such prejudice but when I say half as much it is "bigotry and hate"? Thank you, Jewels.
