As to your point about Muslima and asylum, I might suggest a different approach. Instead of attempting to demonstrate that she is wrong, ask her to provide examples of prisoners being provided asylum, or to give further context to her contention. As I have said repeatedly, there is no "one true Islam". So, "wrong" and "right" and not useful concepts in discussing the topic. Muslima may be right in one context and wrong in another. I think it is more useful to define the parameters of the context about which she is speaking.

So we may ask Muslima to explain what she means. We might even be able to ask leading questions, to an obviously limited extent.

But if Muslima fails to come out with anything relevant to, I dunno, Boko Haram today--and we all know Muslima never would--then tough tootsies, right? You're telling us to not point out that Boko Haram and many scholars take a different position. DCUM is not a marketplace of ideas. For all any of DCUMs readers will know, the version of Islam that's true to Muslima is shared by every other Muslim, including by Al Azhar.

Got it. [/quote]

Alright. I'm done. If this is the level of discussion in which you are interested, have at it.

And yet, that's what you told us.

I'm done too. I have no illusions that DCUM will miss me. The question for me is whether it does me any good to be abused by the moderator for respectfully questioning some pretty dubious claims. My answer: nope. Also, ditching this site will free up my time. My only regret is leaving that other PP on her own. But, Sayonara! [/quote]
