I might as well take the bait.
Wow. Your word of honour lasted all of what, a week? I guess I should feel pride.

One thing atheists love parading around over Christian religious issues is that our society is a secular one, and as such, Christian morality should not limit our education, cultural, or government. As such, things that Christians might find offensive, like the examples above, but also crucifixes drenched in urine, abortion, so on and so forth, should not be oppressed or forbidden.
Us
Atheists are often blamed for what you
xtians do. Consequently you will find that the parents of the Texas pedophile pageants are to a person xtian. Texas being noted for its Atheistic culture

has somehow managed to look beyond that and sexualize children. I think you'll find that the vast majority of those responsible for child sex dance routines and child lingerie are in fact xtian. Nice try shifting the blame sunshine. Next you'll claim that
Jews are responsible for unfair media attacks on the poor catholic church. Oh wait. Only muslims would do that right?

Of course it is tolerated, because Christians, Jews, or other pious peoples have no real choice but to tolerate said things that go against their morality or faith. However, tolerance is not the same thing as acceptance. For example. Many members tolerate the views of others on this site (there are a few exceptions, of course), but tolerating said views does not mean that they accept such views as factual or correct.
Yet you not only condone but support the absolute belief that all muslims are terrorists based on the fact a few are and the belief that none of the moderates do anything about it. So to sum up, all muslims are responsible for all muslim actions regardless but you xtians aren't in "your" society.
Quite fair of you.

There are exceptions, of course. Those who bomb abortion clinics because it goes against their religious beliefs, as one example. Those individuals who commit such actions are prosecuted by secular civic authorities, and more than likely marginalized by mainstream religious communities within the West.
Of course there are.

The same kind of circular logic that states that not xtian can commit evil acts because no xtian ever would. BTW, did you read PA#9s reasoning? Quite revealing the number of xtians who seem to invalidate other xtians from being xtian based on crap. DK(whatever) seems to eliminate all catholics based on his belief. Quite revealing.

And how do we address our own? Lynch mobs? Vigilante justice? Stone a few pedophiles to death?
When Saudi Arabia crucified a man who molested a child then killed him and his father they were called savages and primates. They did what most of the people on this forum demand when somebody from our society does that. Understand yet?
commanderkai commanderkai:
We, in the West, address criminal issues using the system in place. We report crimes to police officers, we elect politicians that we hope will toughen laws against sexual offenders, we attempt to flesh out ideas and options to figure out better solutions to figure out how to resolve crime.
Yes, because that explains the reality that our society accepts sexualized children (or people for that matter) far more then their society. Hell back in the 80s they had controversy of the
Minipops. Over and over in every form of media our society sexualizes children yet you guys cry about muslims?

Such is the wonder of a secular society. No doubt, if you want, we can go back to having the Bible as the source for our laws, and we could start punishing sins as crimes (as in, the way in a majority of Muslim states) or we can come to consensus to a solution, factoring in all views, no matter how extreme (ranging from executing pedophiles, to decriminalizing/legalizing of pedophilia).
Your complete idiocy and ignorance aside (about the bible no less) I would love to see you attempt it. Biblical laws would be so abhorrent in practice it might actually convince millions that its beliefs were equally abhorrent.
Tell me hot shot (assuming your "ignore" phase of me is over) what you think of orthodox jewish practices and law, especially concerning the male chauvinistic rules concerning divorce.
Not that you would ever criticize a foreign culture about their beliefs.
