    All Abrahamic religions, really. Two of them have crawled out of the abyss, but Islam is still hovering there. While Islam may offer the worst examples of misogyny and oppressive practices in the Middle East, it's also true that many of those practices are shared by non-Muslims. This is why I, personally, prefer to consider them cultural and not specifically Islamic.

    My cites are on the "current" state of renewable energy. But as I said, I'm out. Not bothering with your simplistic arguments and your habit of embedding insults into near every post you make if someone disagrees with you: "blindly ideological leftist government. No one wants to hear your tired old bleating".

    Well see, we agree. Who knew? In which case I was misled by believing Jonathan Kay was talking about Canada and not Europe.

    There's more to green technology than 'solar panels', but hey if you want to dumb it down to such a simplistic argument, I'm out. https://gereports.ca/category/clean-technology/?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIv63l8LuY1gIVFG5-Ch07PgLMEAAYASAAEgIr1_D_BwE https://www.nrdc.org/experts/nathanael-greene/us-clean-energy-market-hits-200-billion-global-market-135-trillion-thanks https://www.thestar.com/news/canada/2017/05/02/two-thirds-of-canadas-electricity-now-comes-from-renewable-energy.html

    Perhaps this will help persuade companies to put more effort and money into green technologies, which are needed much more than resource development.

    I think the idea has merit, for sure. Money could be better spent helping people in place. But there are already people who think we spend way too much on foreign aid, and so while I might support reduction of the refugee program, I would want to see a corresponding increase in foreign aid without fighting fiscal conservatives every step of the way. I would like to point out that this article contradicts the claim that refugees from Syria are essentially illiterate goat farmers who have no economic value to Canada.

    From the article: Interesting article. I suppose it's just part of the human condition to have the constant push/pull of progress and status quo. I don't think it's really possible to stop globalism, even with such sites as infowars and people like Alex Jones.

    I have no moral issue with consensual incest among adults, and my 'ick' factor is limited to parent/child couplings. The issue I have is with babies and with power dynamics within families, both of which the article touched on briefly. Given the inherent human-ness of so many people, if incest was not discouraged legally and socially, would more genetically damaged babies be a result? Also, how does one determine when incest is truly consensual and not a result of dysfunctional family dynamics? Meeting a sibling or half sibling with whom you have not grown up is one thing, but I think incest is more common than people realize among family members who live together. Not sure why, but I found it intriguing that the person featured in the article was attracted to her sibling because of his physical, mental and emotional similarity to herself, and he seemed to reciprocate for the same reasons.

    Funny that when people post "Muslims are (ignorant, backward, fanatical, misogynists, etc.) I am supposed to understand that they don't mean "all Muslims" but if I point out that non-Muslims also engage in rape, murder, misogyny, etc. it somehow means I am claiming no Muslims anywhere do those things.  #doublestandard #Islamophobia

      You are too funny, pretending you all want to discuss solutions.  I bet when you want to solve issues with your daughters or at your job, you don't spend endless effort harping on all the negatives.   

      And if I am not making good points, it should be easy to just ignore me and continue with your "problem solving" of Muslims' issues.

      Ignoring is juvenile. 

      Again, no point given. Your solution is to hide your head in the sand and pretend it's not happening. Sorry, the world is in chaos right now due to a dangerous paradigm shift.

      Your logical fallacy is showing again. You can't address this problem by pointing your finger and saying look over there.

      I don't ignore you because I'm trying to understand and figure it out and sometimes, when you're not trying to shut down the conversation, you raise some really good points or include a link that helps me understand better.

      Well Dialamah....there must be a reason why rapes by Muslims is brought up.  Most of them are either asylum seekers - or immigrants!  And they are pretty much in the news - all over the world - because of rampant rape incidents that involve them!

      Their views of women seems to be the biggest motivating factor.

      These ladies must be the worst sort of Islamophobes...lying to make Islam look bad. And so many, as well.

      So, a woman gets raped in another country and makes front page news here but that isnt #significant enough for you. Thousands of rapes perpetuated by muslim immigrants/refugees are just the cost of #justtheusualbarbarity to ensure we are diverse enough. It's hard to debate with a woman who apologizes for rapists #confused #notorapebyanyone #notwhite

    Exactly; I am speaking to the topic and not to you. But, we will be off-topic momentarily if I waste any more time assuring you there is no need to take every post of mine personally.

    What is with the insults Argus? I thought you didn't insult people unless they insulted you first? Which I have not done; I merely pointed out the fallacy inherent in the claim that anyone invites invites terrorism into their home.
  14. dialamah
    By saying someone (Trudeau/the Left) has invited "terrorists" one is implying that everyone who isn't already here is a terrorist. That is bad enough, but because the disapproval is specific to certain groups, it becomes nothing more than bigotry. Nobody invites terrorists. To say so is a stupid hyperbolic remark, a simplistic attempt to engender emotional response and to create divisiveness. It's clickbait and has no connection to rational discussion.

    The son of Sam said he did it because a dog told him to. Does that mean he did it because of the dog?

    A group of 3.3 million kills 119 people, with one person killing almost half that number. A group of 50 thousand kills 106 people, one or two at a time. Which group is more deadly?

    More extreme weather events due to climate change have been forecast for at least 10 years that I know of. It's like smoking: no individual lung cancer is necessarily attributable to smoking, but that doesn't negate the fact that cigarette smoking causes lung cancer.

    Someone told me once that a good art piece made one think, reflect and/or question. Perhaps a camera catches confused and thoughtful looks and assigns a monetary value to each expression, this setting the total value of the piece.

    Hmmm .... I don't believe Jesus would say "support a country unconditionally". That would seem more a politically motivated instruction than a Biblical instruction.

    Not really. I haven't stopped posting here, but it would be due to the stupidity of the zealots that I would. You have no idea how many of those zealots are on my ignore list - perhaps I rival Altai - which means I really only need to read the half-dozen or so who at least can string a coherent sentence together, and even if I consider them dead wrong, they make sense if one understands their premise.

    Maybe his effect is actually in raising extremism generally?

    No lefties, though - too much left-wing propaganda already, yanno.

    This is a good article. I'd never heard of the antifa before the last couple of months, but am dismayed by it's actions, as dismayed as I am with the Nazi and WS movement that continues to grow. But if this quote, from the linked article, is true, then we aren't likely to see a reduction in confrontation and violence any time soon.
  25. dialamah
    I'm all good with filling this forum up with zealots of all stripes - pro-Trump, anti-Muslim, Religious, 9/11 truthers, - perhaps we'll be able to add Area 59 disclosures, devious Masonic agendas, etc. A clearing house of the weird and paranoid.
