So Jeff, I know you'll find a new way to say that Muslima is right and I'm wrong, even if it's just accusing me again of non-existent contradictions. I'm starting to think you're really full of it. Have at it.[/quote]

I am sorry that this has become an issue. I was trying to compliment you on your post. The only thing I might accuse you of is poor reading skills. You quoted a post that said, "these actions are inexplicable". You wrote, "I agree". Then, you provided an explanation. How can you both agree that the actions are inexplicable and then explain them? It's not a big deal and I shouldn't have mentioned it. I was simply confused by your post because of this contradiction.

This has nothing to do with Muslima and I don't understand your obsession with her. I didn't mention her once.

Apology accepted. If "I'm sorry it has become an issue that you have poor reading comprehension and you can't write clearly" is an apology. Whatever, it'll have to do.

Lots of people are irritated by Muslima, not just me. I know you can verify this. Her victimhood mentality is irritating, the drumbeat about how CH is sonebody else's fault. Her rhetorical style is irritating, where she responds to important points only with insults and then obsesses about irrelevant side issues. Her misrepresentation is Islam is irritating. (On this thread I just noticed her claiming that you can't cite the Quran to talk about Islam, and I didn't have the energy to take on that BS by pointing out that Muslims, including her on the other threads, cite the Quran all.the.time. But boy, you should have seen her on those other threads. "Women are equal in Islam" and "Islam offers protection and sexual fulfillment to women captives.") Don't call it an "obsession", that's just an ad hominem. I and others are merely pointing out what we've noticed about how you always defend her, even when she's full of crap; you never question her crap even when it's blatant crap; and in fact you've frequently jumped in to challenge the posters who were questioning her crap. To the extent Muslima affects me at all, it's probably to cause a knee-jerk reaction to distrust her. Your own role in defending her crap probably causes me (and I venture to say, others here) to come down even harder on her. Laudable? Not exactly, I'll admit that. Understandable? Completely.

A little Saturday morning introspection. You're welcome. [/quote]You can't let one poster get under your skin.  I have seen Muslima jump into religious conversations specifically posted about Christ in the religion forum and speak about how in Islam he is only a respectable prophet.  It never occurs to her that it is offensive to those who have a different belief system to constantly interject herself in conversations and, yes, derail, in the name of her Prophet.  I sense she believes it is her right and obligation to interject her belief system anywhere she deems fit but some deem this as proselytizing.  She might note that as passionate as she is about her belief system, there are others who feel the same about theirs and would appreciate respect when she invites herself into Christian conversations that are not about the Prophet Muhammad.  Yes, I know I've ventured a bit off topic.

I happen to like the moderator whether bumping heads or not.  There isn't one person alive who doesn't have or enjoy a good go-round (especially with some good zingers) when talking politics.  Respectfully, I do think that Muslima has been given a forum to espouse her religious and political beliefs with absolutely minimal reproach (and I'm not talking about giving free reign to the crazies who believe that immigrants should be shipped back in crates or that Obama is responsible for your disconnected phone).

While I think Muslima's purpose is to educate about her religion and promulgate her political views (nothing wrong with that), I hope the same free speech that is afforded her (regardless whether it is Christianity or Judaism) would be afforded to someone who might come along who is verbal like her and allow them to espouse their religious views/beliefs without condemnation even if it's in the political forum as she has frequently done.

Just my viewpoint.  ;-)
