Re: Islam is a Joke

Islam isn't a race.

Of course you are right. I was caught up in the fun Ally
started.

Pellucid started all this as a discussion of racist Cumbrians as
suggested by a BBC survey. I thought it had come full circle
with Ally accusing Pellucid of being a racist Cumbrian!

But Pellucid has been fairly consitent in ranting only about
'Muslims'. He did stray a bit as in

"Why are we still importing Pakistani's and Muslims..." Jan 14,
3:54 pm.

However, my bad. He's simply a raving Islamophobe. Islamophobia
[1] is, as are other religious intolerances, a form of
prejuduice, in the same class as racism [2].

Thank you for correcting me.

1. Kofi Annan, Dec 7, 2004 coined the "neologism" when he said
"the world is compelled to coin a new term to take account of
increasingly widespread bigotry ? that it is a sad and troubling
development. Such is the case with 'Islamophobia'."
