You should see some of the conclusions they reach from reading bibles and korans!

Read Jacob's post for an example of accusation more befitting the accuser. It's not unlike "You're very smart young man: But it's Turtles, all the way down."
Nonono. I've yet to be convinced that you're a very smart young man
.Returning to the OP, one of the thing that tends to ping my bullshit detector is people who like to ridicule an entire group, based on incomplete information, especially if they do it by ascribing them views or motivations they may not actually hold. Always makes me wonder what they hope to gain from the exercise.

Through strength, I gain power.
