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. They may well be persecuted, I'm not disagreeing with that but they are also hypocritical. 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.

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. 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. Originally posted by johnno42000
If you join the club you become collectively accountable for the good and bad things the club has done and will do. ? 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. Originally posted by johnno42000
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). 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.

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. 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.

We will have to agree to disagree as I believe that Christians are being hypocritical and you don't and our twain will never meet.

I don't disagree about some believers in Islam living in the Dark Ages. 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.

Does anyone know where I can get a good strawberry milkshake near the Old Bailey? 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.

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.

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

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. Edited by Maine Eagle (14 May 2019 7.18pm)
