I like the way you edited the post that you quoted. What's the matter? Why can't you answer that question? Why the deflection?
I also love they way that you assumed that I wasn't intelligent enough to understand what binary thinking is. Thank you for giving me the remedial version. They think the same way? Your reply is very weak. You edit the post because you don't want to answer the question and then you show that this is your opinion and is not based on facts.
I don't recall editing a quote. I may have left out part I didn't think relevant or didn't care to respond to. You'll get over it.
I don't assume anything about your intelligence, I just observe the content and tenor of your posts.
The DO think the same way. You can call my theory weak, but can you prove me wrong? Zealots share certain mental and emotional characteristics, regardless of beliefs, be they communists, fundamentalists Baptists or Islamic terrorists.
A plague on all their houses. They are truly what is wrong with the world.

How about people who equate baseball fans and mass murderers ?
Interesting, a 9 year-old who collects baseball cards and Ted Bundy?

I see. So something that makes your posts look more ridiculous than they already do on their own isn't relevant or maybe you didn't care to respond. Thanks for clarifying that.
I don't need to prove your theory that baseball fans and the Amish should be compared to Muslims because it's gelastic (oh sorry....laugh provoking) on it's own. No proof is needed. As you can see there isn't too much support for it in this thread.

If it helps you with your self-esteem, I'm happy to oblige you.

Baseball fans weren't part of my theory, someone else came up with that.
I don't consider the Amish to be zealots or extremists, someone else came up with that one, too.
That the world is a black and white place, that they are right and everyone else is wrong.
In other words, extremism. It differs only in the degree to which people are willing to express their extremism.

You didn't bring it up but you did compare them.
