[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's a serious charge, to accuse people of being Islamophobes who spread fallacies about Islam. I am personally offended at the implication that I or other posters here are Islamophobes, when I feel all we've done is disagree with you.

If you make this charge, you need to have a reason for doing so.[/quote]

Yes, I have my reasons. They shall remain with me in the future, not to be voiced, as it detracts from serious discussion.[/quote]

I'm sorry, but that's very wrong of you. You can't call people Islamophobic Liars and then refuse to explain why.  It's  character assassination without recourse to a judge or jury. Less dramatically, it's an ad hominem attack of the sort that makes the attacker look worse than the person being attacked. It's a license to insult with impunity, and it's been a big problem in these discussions since the very start.

If you won't point to specific examples, then I'd suggest anybody who is interested to skim the thread and determine where the bulk of the insults lie.

Again, please point to an example where somebody appeared to hate Islam. To be distinguished from simply disagreeing with you that, for example, the package of Muslim women's rights conveys equality with men, or not being persuaded by an argument you've offered, or being frustrated with you or the other poster personally.[/quote]

No need to rehash. All the reasons have been stated in previous pages. We just have to agree to disagree on this one.[/quote]
