We are on two very opposite sides of a field with our beliefs on this one. I am not going to comment beyond that.
It really seems like some posters here would fit in better in Iran that the USA.

Unintended irony?

You mean that they would like a very conservative country where religion is strong?

No, that they are all for this type of murdering. They should move to where it is legal for them to support it. They would absolutely love it. Hell they even might want to do a few beheadings themselves.

So the irony went over your head.

Here's an explanation. Iran is a theocracy. The most cogent characteristic of a theocracy would be the lack of religious tolerance. You and your cohorts are displaying religious intolerance with your condemnation of a religion based on media headlines and fear. The people arguing against you are arguing FOR religious tolerance. You are arguing for religious intolerance. Therefore the person most suited to life in Iran, because of its religious intolerance, would be the people arguing for religious intolerance on this thread.

As would some alleged men of God, like Falwell and Robertson who attempted to partially attribute 9/11 to God's punishment for America's so called evils.

Ah ... not just conservative and religious but with regular executions. Yep, there are more than a few on here who could relate to that

Post of the day, but I strongly doubt the people you are arguing with understand what you are saying.

None of this would have ever happened if they would have just stopped making those movies!
