And millions of Christians had got killed because of their beliefs also. But I think we've moved on from 500 years ago. Unless you think we should go back to the medieval times?

However, when reporters across the mainstream media remove the word 'muslim' from articles in order to follow a political narrative, they are no longer journalists but activists.

I agree with your comments about not stating Muslims in reports.

I still think it is hypocritical of Christians to say they are being persecuted when for so long they persecuted and murdered so many people. I am not sure why you say 500 years as Christians have forcibly been 'converting' people up until quite recently. Admittedly not always murder but scary stuff nonetheless [Link]

You continue to use 'sins of the fathers' arguments.

You could use this same nonsensical argument about the pagans who were killing people as well before the Christians turned up.

I never said that Pagans weren't guilty of the same thing, albeit on a far smaller scale.

If you read the link I posted you will see that Christians have been guilty of atrocities in relatively recent times so I'm not sure when an agreed cut off point is used for the sins of the fathers argument? Also who gets to decide when?

Really, how would you know? Pagans would have been around for far more thousands of years than the Christians.

Using this line of reasoning the Pagans have absolutely nothing to complain about.....because as a pagan you share the guilt today.

It's in the words.

According to pew, from 2010 data, there are over 2 billion Christians. Up until a couple of decades ago I was amongst their number.

A person is only responsible for their deeds. It's not a responsible action to suggest that a person can take responsibility for the actions of another....just as we don't punish a relation for the actions of their relative....it's a dangerous and unjust road to go down.

I'm fully for attacking the ideas of Christianity as with all religions including your own. If there are messages from within the religion that you think justify violence or you think the religion is culturally incompatible with secular society....again, I'm willing to listen....but, 'sins of the fathers' arguments? Na.

How about we agree that all physical abuse/murder done today is wrong and should be condemned – irrespective of the past.

They either are being persecuted or not.

It is also a very blinkered view of history to think that Christians were the only one's persecuting people. In any case, comparing the massacre of Christians in the 21st century to what happened in centuries past is to suggest that Islam is still living in the dark ages.

That is not the same at all. Christianity is a religion that has been going for many years and, if you know the history of the religion, you will know what bad, and good, things it has done. You therefore make a conscious choice to join their club. That is not the same as having a relative who does bad things as you have no choice in their being a relative.

If you join the club you become collectively accountable for the good and bad things the club has done and will do. Much like being a supporter of a football club, like Millwall, who get punished based partly on a history of hooliganism (ie previous incidents put on a suspended basis).

As far as your point about Pagans it is very difficult to equate the two religions as there is no World central tenet to Paganism so the collective responsibility would be only on the type of Pagan you are.

I realise a similar thing could be said of Christianity (Catholic, Protestant etc) but the central idea of a belief in the Bible and a one God seems to be the essential criteria for being a Christian. That is not the same with Paganism where you can believe in one God, many Gods, Roman Gods, Celtic Gods etc, the list is endless.

So, whilst you can say a Pagan who believes in the Roman Gods may be held responsible for the historical killing of Christians that were killed in the Games, you could not hold a Celtic Pagan as responsible.

I never said that they were the only ones who persecuted people. I don't disagree about some believers in Islam living in the Dark Ages.

So people raised from birth have a conscious choice to 'join the club'? Is this like the 99 percent of Muslims in some Islamic countries made a 'conscious choice to become Muslims. I don't think this reflects reality. Many old people find comfort and companionship in church communities. For the young being told as a child that you're going to hell for disbelief also has powerful effects on many....also some might be naturally gullible or have low IQs and just believe stuff. Would we blame people for low IQs?

Many people don't in fact get the choice, not in any practical sense.

Also a relative shares a set amount of the genes of their relative. Whether they made that choice or not is irrelevant if we are going to start placing blame onto people for the acts of others. A son could be said to be like a father.

? No you don't. How much you wish to associate yourself with the actions of others is for you. No one can be told they are responsible for the actions of another.

That's actually the law and it's been that way since medieval times.

So if you support Millwall you support hooligans because a percent of Millwall supporters are violent?

Unless there is something inherent within Millwall itself as a football club which encourages or enables violence I don't see how we can attack Millwall football club itself.

Every club has violent fans, I don't feel responsible for what another individual who supports Palace does. I reject the notion that I should.

It's certainly true that Millwall have a historic problem in this area and that's why they attract a certain percent of violent fans.....but it's not fair on the majority of fans who just support the club to say they share a responsibility.

So, whilst you can say a Pagan who believes in the Roman Gods may be held responsible for the historical killing of Christians that were killed in the Games, you could not hold a Celtic Pagan as responsible.

If you are going to allow different distinctions for pagans based upon your criteria then you can't fairly deny that to Christians also. I fail to see how the 'central belief' of believing in one god makes a difference to responsibility as opposed to believing in many.

So you can't hold a protestant responsible for what the catholics do or did if you also think that one form of Pagan isn't responsible for what another form did because they differ in belief.

Believing in one god, many or none has nothing to do with whether the belief deserves culpability or not for the action.

In short, in my view, the 'historical guilt' argument holds no merit. Just as with religion If you wish to feel guilt or hold belief that's fine, just as long as others aren't told or expected to believe the same.

What has 'hypocritical' got to do with anything?

No one should be murdered or made to fear for their lives. Right now, Islam is the aggressor. What happened in the past cannot be changed. What is happening now needs to be recognised and hot ignored.

No doubt another misuse of the law and taxpayers money to silence someone who speaks out against the tyranny of the establishment.

Sad to see in this country really. I used to think Britain was above this kind of state terrorism.

No he broke the law by filming people entering or leaving court, or whatever that little twerp did.

No ideas on the milkshake?

Could go with McDonalds as its quite thick and adheres to surfaces well. I am not sure if you want one of those thinner ones that will just wash off easily.

Disingenuous and worthy of someone with the mind of a schoolboy.

You know exactly why he is being harassed and it's got nothing to do with filming people.

You are a hoot.

I love chatting about these things with you as I dont have a single friend, family member or colleague/business associate who is like you, Hrolf, and its a real experience.

He deserves to be harassed is the irony there, but lets leave that to one side for now.

But he is not being harassed here, he is being charged with a criminal act, Hrolf.

It is Hreally breaking the law to film people during court proceedings.

Should Stephen Christopher Yaxley-Lennon not be held accountable for breaking the law?

I think I will go with Shake Shack at Covent Garden and walk over.

Just to let you know how wrong this is (and plenty of previous anti-Tommy videos).
McDonald's do not make milkshakes - they are shakes - there is no milk in them.
