I take Padraic's points, but I don't think Mr. Condell is wrong with what he's saying. He's not condoning some voilence and saying it's ok for other violence, seems pretty clear to me that he is talking about the recent norwegian attacks because it's relevant to this point in time and the premise of the video.
So Padraic if you'd like to clear up exactly what it is which makes Pat a bigot in this video then it would be great. Btw it's only natural he has to speak somewhat about Islam when the key pillar of belief for that murderer was a belief which Pat Condell shares. And I share. That Islam is evil. The only difference is, is that murderer somehow decides it's right to kill innocent people over it whereas Pat just makes Youtube videos.
Seriously people, anyone care to enlighten me as to why Pat Condell seems to have so many haters? What's the beef?
OK,it's not complex; Condell makes sweeping generalisations about Islam, a faith with over one BILLION followers.His broad charactertisations of Islam and Muslims are not supported by evidence.
Eg We have a moderate Muslim here in Rayaan. That decent man is in fact typical of the many Muslims I knew well when living in a Muslim country .(Malaysia)
From Wikipedia;
Quote:A bigot is a person obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own opinions and prejudices, especially one exhibiting intolerance, and animosity toward those of differing beliefs. The predominant usage in modern English refers to persons hostile to those of differing race, ethnicity, religion or spirituality, nationality, inter-regional prejudice, gender and sexual orientation, homelessness, various medical disorders particularly behavioral disorders and addictive disorders. Forms of bigotry may have a related ideology or world views.

Pat Condell comes across to me as a fearful little man,spewing his closed minded hatred over anyone who will listen.
I don't hate the silly old fart.He's not my enemy;he has not harmed me and I don't see him as a threat.I don't think about him enough to hate him..To be blunt, I really could not care less is he gets run over by a passing tank,spontaneously combusts or indeed,is bitten by a rabid wahhabi Muslim.
Bored now,have wasted far too much time on the batshit nuttery of Mr Condell. Perfectly happy to agree to disagree with Nappy or anyone else
