You take the time to reply with "smell the roses" in place of responding with facts.

Why is it that personal insults are used in place of actual facts ?

Answer ..... you have none.

Nadine.....you have waaaay too much time on your hands. Step outside and smell the roses once in a while.....


What kind of lame response is that? You started in with the insults

This is about as moronic as saying that blowing up Protestants in pubs is totally Catholic. Something that someone sitting behind a keyboard in charming Vermont could be easily suckered into believing.

Now you beg off finding a single counter-example? If what I said is a moronic as you claim, it should be easy to find. Only a few extremists, disapproved of by the majority, approve of suicide bombing Tel Aviv pizza parlors, right?

Except it's not true. The Middle East is awash with Nazi-level anti-Semitism, and approval of killing Jews, big or small, is widespread - and it's enforced by the extremists who try to kill the few Arab liberals who disagree. That's why I demand that you look for the evidence, so you can see for yourself.

A better comparison would be to saying that it was totally Catholic to blow up Protestants in 1560, at the height of the Wars of Religion. Would it have been a moronic statement back then? or one with widespread support from the Catholic Church?
