Bullshit. I meant what I said, you read it wrong either by accident or on purpose in order to create a strawman. You don't get to decide what I meant.

You haven't pointed out any logical fallacies I've committed; you've just labelled it as illogical. I'll stop defending it when you start presenting an actual refutation.
Quote:You state a position on respecting customs and religions, yet you don't say why they should be respected.
I spent the entire first part of the thread arguing why we shouldn't impede on people's rights to wear what they want or act how they like. If you had any doubt though, you should have
asked me rather than burst onto the scene saying "THAT'S ILLOGICAL!!!", knowing full well that it wasn't since it's not even an argument.

My words were that we should respect customs and religions in regard to wearing stuff. I then went on to say that there were exceptions, like when identity must be obtained. The mere fact that I allow for exceptions
negates your accusation that it is "blind" respect.
