you are correct, and as I discovered you can get hidden by a jury for pointing it out here in the atheists section apparently...

I guess I misunderstood the concept of safe haven....thought pointing out the issues with muslims and islam was obvious.

As with charlie hebdo it's clear muslims are easily offended and as you point out create some seriously dangerous conditions for those who offend their tender sensibilities.

All religions suffer from the desire to stifle dissent to be sure, but islam has a lock on the body count these days if one is being honest about how islam reacts to dissent or criticism.

My apologies to those who are offended by that concept, but I would encourage you to read the papers from the ME and discover the large body count for yourself.

For the record there is no god as there is no evidence beyond that for santa claus to support the god theory.

If someone is offended by that I don't know what else to say....except that it's not hateful when it's fact.

It would appear you are correct in that many would prefer you to shut up...
