Please don't go down there either. What would you think of the statement "total and complete shutdown of the entry of Jews to the United States until our country's representatives can figure out what is going on."
Do you feel comfortable in using the old weasel argument of X or Y not being a race? By now you should know how much I despise X or Y are not a race, if you read any of my posts on the matter.
I don't see what the problem is for pointing out the fact that Muslim is not a race. I went to my Muslim friend's wedding a year ago, and there were a few Caucasian Muslims there, including the Imam himself. And on the other hand, there are plenty of Arab Christians.
I said "it doesn't make it any less ridiculous to ban them/register them though." And yes, I say the same thing about Jews. It's a religion not a race, but that doesn't make it any more ok to discriminate against them.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
