You would rather "tar an entire gender with a broad brush" than call out Islam for what it is i.e. a barbaric ideology that promotes hatred, intolerance and bigotry. Is this really what we've come to?
No I'm sick of generalised comments aboout a Muslims and repeated negative images being posted.

Ive called you out on a statement. 'Muslims as a social group are more violent than any other social group'. You stated this was a fact.

I choose men.

Now prove your social group is more violent compared to mine.

I could have just as easily chosen 'Americans' and gone on to highlight how much more violent they are (world military spending, the only nation to have used WMDs on civilians, twice, gun violence, military deaths, threat of nuclear extinction) or several other groups, but I'll stick with men.

Now stop parroting crap and argue the point I raised, or admit you were wrong.

First one off the top of my head.

Now prove to me how Im wrong. Or Ill turf you from the thread.
I'm quite honestly flabbergasted. I can't even describe how I feel right now. A mixture of shock, disbelief and sadness that someone could seriously think that was a clever response.

Men (or males) is a gender, not a "social group". How about we just say "human beings"?

Genuine question: Do those people with the behead all those who insult the prophet actually mean what they're writing?

Those signs are pretty intimidating and elicit fear.

Convenient for your argument.

Why is race, ethnicity and even religion 'social groups' but gender not?
First of all, my statement was that Muslims are the most bigoted and intolerant group of people in this world.

Is it your position that it is actually "men" who are the most bigoted and intolerant group of people in this world?

Let's assume you have a valid point.
What do you want to happen to all the Muslim people?
Ideally, I want them to convert out of Islam and live productive lives like the rest of humanity instead of following the examples of a psychopathic prophet who preached hate, bigotry and intolerance.

Is that too much to ask?
