Ok so simply tell what positive contributions they've made? You clearly believe there are some so list them?
It's like the politicians saying that diversity is our strength but never actually quantifying it.

Which part of ?I am not answering your pathetic, trollish questions any more? do you need explaining further?  You can?t reason with the unreasonable and you are nothing if not unreasonable.

Being anti Islam isn't racist, you can't be racist against a religion as you well know, Spam!

So being anti-Jewish isn?t racist in your view either then I take it?

Obviously he is a WUM which is why I refuse to engage with his bad faith questions, but I can assure you he is a racist.  His brand of so-called humour belongs on a football forum or a Britain First forum but there he wouldn?t stand out so that is why he likes to post here, even though his audience is tiny.

You still haven't told me what's wrong with being a racist?

VS is against racism, but when pressed on the issue, she can't list anything positive about Muslims & black people. That seems a bit racist to me.

Obviously the troll doesn?t understand what I mean when I say I won?t fall into his trap of giving genuine answers in good faith to questions which are asked in bad faith. 

What is a bad faith question?

A bad faith question is a query asked with dishonest or manipulative intent. Rather than seeking information or understanding, the questioner poses it to deceive, trap, antagonize, or push a hidden agenda. The core aim is inauthentic and unproductive.

Here?s an example of a reasonably intelligent and thoughtful discussion on the subject of racism
https://www.reddit.com/r/askphilosophy/comments/15kiee/what_is_wrong_with_being_racist/
Not for one minute do I believe such a discussion on the subject could take place on this forum with a WUM.  That?s why I choose not to engage.  Not because I can?t answer.  Not because I?m frightened of my opposition?s argument.  The only reason is that I will no longer engage with bad-faith morons on the internet.  I will not try and reason with the unreasonable.

Joe Bloggs (pretty much the only other active member here at the moment) is someone who I would consider is here for a genuine and interesting discussion, and despite the fact that he is (unaccountably) a big fan of Spam?s he can at least see that I am right and that Spam?s questions are not asked in good faith, that he only responds to my posts with questions designed to provoke and wind people up.

You had to Google what's wrong with being a racist to come up with an answer. You couldn't make a coherent argument against it for yourself. That's pretty embarrassing for you.

And that?s just another example of pathetic goading from the resident troll.  And anyone who actually believes I am unable to think of any reasons why being a racist is wrong off my own bat really hasn?t been paying attention.  The troll will keep on goading and goading and goading in response to my steadfast refusal to answer his moronic bad faith questions.

Again, a wimp out by yourself. You do it every time you can't win an argument. You make excuses, resort to insults & strop off. You've been doing it ever since I've known you. You're incredibly transparent.

So being anti-Jewish isn?t racist in your view either then I take it?

Lets talk about Halaal & Kosher slaughter. I'm sure the animals in this country would all agree that they'd much rather not be stunned before having their throats slit & bleeding out wouldn't they. I'm surprised animal welfare activists don't ever criticise Islam & Judaism for this barbaric practice at all really. But then, like everyone else nowadays, they are probably more afraid of being called racist, than they really are about animal welfare or anything else. But let me be clear, I'm not bringing this up just because I'm racist, but because it is against my religion to eat Halaal & Kosher food & my religious teachings tell me it should all be banned.

Yes, anti Jewish is racism towards a certain race of people, Vertigo, but 'Jewish' isn't a religion.
I believe the Jewish religion is Judaism or such, and again, just  like being 'anti Islam', 'anti Judaism' is not racist!
Basically you can be racist against a group/race of people, but you cant be racist against a religion, can you?

There is no place for cruelty to animals in this day and age, and cruelty to animals in the name of religion makes it even worse, Spam!
Pain is pain, pure and simple, and any so called God demanding this is not worth worshiping! In fact any cruel God doesn't deserve the time of day. The cruel slaughter of animals sounds more like the demands the Devil would make!

Islam is a religion and people who practice it are called Muslims.  Judaism is a religion and people who practice it are called Jewish.

I agree completely.

Of course I can?t win the argument.  A reasonable person like me can?t hope to win an argument with a troll like you in the same way you can?t hope to win a game of chess with a pigeon, ?cos no matter how well you play the pigeon simply knocks over the pieces and shits all over the board, proudly puffing out its chests as if it won.
