NickM Posted January 16, 2009 Author Posted January 16, 2009 (edited) Islamaphobia: an irrational fear or prejudice towards Islam and Muslims. Incapable of accepting these hot A-Rabian Wimmin can be Christians? What's wrong do you suffer from Christophobia or something? nm Edited January 16, 2009 by NickM
NickM Posted January 16, 2009 Author Posted January 16, 2009 The first time we had a "small" family gathering with her family, I thought I was at a family reunion! There must have been 30-40 people there. Then her mom would not let my plate get empty, she kept feeding me (still does). Love the spice..... My wife has always said that White men who marry Latin women have gotta be nuts! nm
Guest aevans Posted January 16, 2009 Posted January 16, 2009 My wife has always said that White men who marry Latin women have gotta be nuts! nm You should try marrying a German-Hispanic mix. If only mine hadn't been Type I bipolar on top of it...
Michael Eastes Posted January 16, 2009 Posted January 16, 2009 You should try marrying a German-Hispanic mix. If only mine hadn't been Type I bipolar on top of it... That's an ugly mix, the bi-polar part, anyway. My wife is half-Armenian, half English/Dutch-by-way-of-southern-California, but is comparatively sane for an ex-psych nurse. Whatever constitutes sanity these days. And, we'll have 36 official years as of 20 Jan. Speaking of whatever constitutes sanity... Can the Bearded Entity explain to me what an irrational fear of Islam consists of, considering recent history? From my POV, most fear of Muslim terrorists is fairly well-ordered and healthy. If the Entity can do so, someone tell me, 'cause I have it on "ignore".
Guest aevans Posted January 16, 2009 Posted January 16, 2009 That's an ugly mix, the bi-polar part, anyway. The German-Hispanic part of her makeup was a really lovely woman. The bipolar part, not so much.
Michael Eastes Posted January 16, 2009 Posted January 16, 2009 The German-Hispanic part of her makeup was a really lovely woman. The bipolar part, not so much. Bipolar, and with two distinct, yet legendary, ethnic styles of anger and retribution. Oy gevalt, to say the least.
Guest aevans Posted January 16, 2009 Posted January 16, 2009 Bipolar, and with two distinct, yet legendary, ethnic styles of anger and retribution. Oy gevalt, to say the least. Some nights I stayed up late wondering if it would be the cold knife in the back or the hot knife in the belly. Turned out to be the former, figuratively speaking, at any rate.
Murph Posted January 16, 2009 Posted January 16, 2009 Notice the deafening silence from the Bearded Clam? I guess the Buddha told him that he should practice some navel gazing or something....
toysoldier Posted January 16, 2009 Posted January 16, 2009 Toy:My wife says Cubans don't have spice in their food, just in their blood & their spirit...NM I bet you knew that before she uttered those words And yes, thanks God we only overdue the sugar, the salt, the oil and the garlick Does she does yuca con mojo?

crazyinsane105 Posted January 16, 2009 Posted January 16, 2009 Crazy: NO "half-sies" I said....nm Sorry about that...but to me, women of mixed nationalities/elasticities are just soooooo much hotter.....
T19 Posted January 16, 2009 Posted January 16, 2009 Dang I just get the popcorn made and The Clam cowers back under his Brian Ross love-me blanket.Oh well, hope you brought some drinks T19, it shouldn't be long before it re-emerges once again; similar to those herpes videos the .mil docs use to show. I only have Canadian Beer,, but we could water some down for you

Mike Steele Posted January 16, 2009 Posted January 16, 2009 Was he Gay before that?? No but he was kinda a dipstick.
Sikkiyn Posted January 17, 2009 Posted January 17, 2009 I only have Canadian Beer,, but we could water some down for you I grew up on dunkleweizens; doubt there would be much surprise with a north of the border brew.
Bearded-Dragon Posted January 17, 2009 Posted January 17, 2009 Notice the deafening silence from the Bearded Clam? I guess the Buddha told him that he should practice some navel gazing or something.... Unlike many here, I don't live my life through the net. Its interesting how it is assumed that because you are married to a Hispanic that precludes you from being bigoted towards Muslims/Arabs. I wonder why? Your posts have demonstrated that you appear to have rather an antithesis towards anything Islamic. However I am precluded from suggesting anything that might be construed as a psychological analysis by both the ROE and my non-qualification in the field. I will however make a point - don't assume that because I am courteous and respectful to people that I necessarily assume that I am being servile or that I necessarily agree with them. As someone suggested, sometimes a "cigar is just a cigar". I am being courteous and respectful, thats all.
Bearded-Dragon Posted January 17, 2009 Posted January 17, 2009 (edited) What is the word for rational fears? Exactly what you've stated, "rational fears". Fear of people merely because they share a group association with the perpetrators of crimes is irrational. Islamophobia is irrational. Edited January 17, 2009 by Bearded-Dragon
BillB Posted January 17, 2009 Posted January 17, 2009 Exactly what you've stated, "rational fears". Fear of people merely because they share a group association with the perpetrators of crimes is irrational. Islamophobia is irrational.What you meant to say was rational by *your* personal definition of rational which, let's face it, isn't really up to much judging by your pronouncements on here. As is usual among your tiresome ilk, you are being disingenuous if not simply dishonest in deliberately translating dislike to mean fear. They do not mean the same thing in the dictionary sense or in the sense used here, and no amount of lies and deliberate misinterpretation by you will change the fact. Even if you label it double plus ungood. You are quite corrrect though, albeit in precisely the opposite way to that you intended. Despite you and others attempting to give the term a spurious legitimacy, Islamophobia is an irrational term coined and deployed by irrational people for irrational purposes. You have thus just hoisted yourself upon your own politically correct petard. Not that you'll admit it of course. That's one of the flawed foundations of political correctness - simply refuses to it recognise any irrationality save its own, which despite all the dripping by you and your ilk about "inclusion", equality" and any number of meaningless buzz words, is about as totalitarian as it gets.

BillB Posted January 17, 2009 Posted January 17, 2009 Oops, nearly missed this bit of dribble. And is that not exactly what you're doing? If someone does not conform to your beliefs on discourse, you do not hesitate to attack. Old one, you must lead quite a misanthropic existence, You seem to wish to revel in your prejudices and disrespect for others. Courteous and respectful conversation is apparently something you are incapable of. Courteous and respectful treatment of others seems alien to you. Thats your choice. Not mine, nor should it be the choice of civilised peoples. No, it is not exactly what I am doing or indeed do, as ought to be clear from anyone with even a modicum of objectivity. What I do is point out the flaws and inconsistencies in your pronouncements, which is not the same thing at all. As for the rest, you have no real idea what my beliefs are, and you are incapable (or more likely simply unwilling) of differentiating beteween someone disagreeing with you and attacking you. You have no idea what kind of existence I lead, or whether I have any prejudices; all you have is a mish mash of assumptions based on fragments gleaned from posts on here, and your dislike of being contradicted. Over and above that, you simply lack the intellectual capacity and indeed intestinal fortitude to put up a decent defence and thus have little choice but to try and play the man rather than the argument. Consequently, the above reads more like a tirade from a petulant primary school child than a reasoned response from an adult. Using your own yardstick, the above is ageist, prejudiced against the socially deprived, the differently abled and confuses "courteous" and "respectful" with "agreeing with self-evident untruths", which is hardly conforming with your own claims of occupying the behavioural high ground. The fact that you chose to respond to only the first two lines of a reasonable and perfectly polite if robustly worded post clearly illustrates the bankruptcy of your position and your personal intellectual and moral dishonesty. In short, if you can't stand the heat stay out of the kitchen. Sorry if that bruises your delicate sensibilities, but that's how it works in the real world outside your fluffy imaginary progressive liberal utopia. BillB
BillB Posted January 17, 2009 Posted January 17, 2009 I'm going to say one thing, then let it go. Bill, you post all over this Grate Site and I read most of what you write. Guess what? In the vast majority of cases, I don't have or make a comment, because I agree with what you have to say. In the very few cases I comment on your contributions, it's because I disagree with what you have to say, not you, personally. I have never sought to contradict you for the sake of contradiction, I am not doing so now, and I never will do so. You really, really, need to get the fuck over yourself.No, you are going to let it go because you are unwilling to address my original comment squarely because it would mean admitting that you were in the wrong, and we've previously established that is something you are unwilling or incapable of doing. That, note, is why we are here with you playing the spurious personal dislike card. Again. As for the rest, I don't post all over this site as a comparison of our post stats shows. That would be you servicing what appears to be an inveterate need to share your opinion on every topic under the sun irrespective of relevance or whether you actually have any knowledge or insight. Also, the above suggests that it is compulsory for you to comment on stuff you don't agree with, which is not the case; I simply don't have the time or energy to comment on everything you write that I disagree with because there aren't enough hours in the day, due to the sheer volume of your posting. Finally, regarding your denial of being a contrarian, give it a rest. The evidence to prove the point is spread wide and deep across the whole of this Grate Sight. BillB
