I hate Protestants, and I'm not sure why.

As Jimmy Rabbitte Jr opined in "The Commitments," "The irish are the niggers of Europe."

Such a pity you are every bit as prejudiced as the racists you decry.

I care fuck-all about people's personally held prejudices. It's only when they are the impetus for the abject murderous oppression of whole groups of people, abridging their lives, liberty and unmolested pursuit of happiness, as has been the case throughout U.S. history, that they are an issue for me.

prej·u·dice
n.

An adverse judgment or opinion formed beforehand or without knowledge or examination of the facts.
A preconceived preference or idea.
The act or state of holding unreasonable preconceived judgments or convictions. See Synonyms at predilection.
Irrational suspicion or hatred of a particular group, race, or religion.
Detriment or injury caused to a person by the preconceived, unfavorable conviction of another or others.


There is nothing preconceived nor irrational about my suspicions. History bears them out. So, it would seem that the true pity is that you apparently have no idea what prejudice means.

You damn a whole section of world society when you only have experience of a small part and you say your suspicions are not irrational.

As for ideas of prejudice, here again you rant with no knowledge. My personal experience of prejudice increases on a daily basis and has done so for many years. There are many sorts of prejudice not all relate to race.

I damn a whole section of world society? What are you on about? Who is it that I've damned ... Fascists? Were it with within my power to damn anyone, I certainly would send the lot of them screaming down into some mythological Danteian inferno.

I made no comment as to your personal experiences. I referenced the dictionary denotation of the word. Neither did I say or imply that prejudice applies only to race. How your came to that misconception is anyone's guess. My point was that there is a pre in prejudice that simply does not apply in this case. Whatever antipathy I have for certain political groups isn't born of prejudgment. Again, you are apparently wholly ignorant of the significance of the PRE in prejudice.

Your title of the thread is about a hatred of Protestants. They exist outside America - all over the world! You are damning a whole section of society.

"So, it would seem that the true pity is that you apparently have no idea what prejudice means."

Your words not mine. I know what it means and experience it every day.

Hatred of Protestants ... so that's what you're on about. I really can't understand how anyone could read the first message in this thread and not know that it's bullshit. I was merely yanking the chains of a few AmeriKKKan right wing-nuts. If I had my druthers, all religion would be expressly prohibited on planet Earth. Haven't we had enough killing on behalf of that shite? It is, after all, the year of our fictitious lord 2003.

Yeah, right.

In your case, it was what I expected you to say so it didn't surprise me a bit.

But you have it right, it IS bullshit.

And exactly who are you? Nevermind, I don't care.

Now we are supossed to read your mind? or just assume that everything that you write is bullshit?




Prolly not a bad choice.

This makes the most sense. ;)

I can't believe some of the crap I've read in this short thread.

If you think your brand of Christianity is superior to another, that's fine but to brand another groups adherents as less generous, less open-minded and less authentic is postively insulting and quite frankly stupid!

You tell him, Bluespoke.
