What beliefs are against the law?

Beliefs are NOT against the Law, at least in the US unless you can point out where that happens to be true.

You are still just a complete idiot, I don't miss you one bit. I hope God gives you a gift of comprehension one day. Why act smart, and talk dumb? The only reason why you are picking on my quotes, and taking them out of context is because you hate me. Something that should be against your religion and the beliefs the you have so profoundly professed here over the years.
Okay.
So you agree that beliefs are not against they law?
This actually is an important issue.

Correct, it is a matter of determining who the 'They' refers to and I've been trying to get rat to clarify the issue.

Good. I'm glad we got that settled. I was simply unsure what you meant by the underlined part of this quote from you.

Had you said that you held those acts against them because they were against the law there would have been no confusion.

Now I would not be so Ignorant to think that correlation equals causation, but it is rather odd to me that these places with high percentages of black people are very dangerous places.
Notice in that sentence you showed the exact trait people have mentioned, you first claim that you understand that correlation does not equal causation but then turn around and do just that; you assert that "places with high percentages of black people are very dangerous places".

It is inappropriate to show the whole of Russia in a Choropleth map where the data is based on per 100,000 people because there are vast portions of Russia that are basically uninhabited.
And your statistics about American cities didn't break it down street by street. So? We were asked for data about countries.
Too funny. Does he realize that in statistics based on incidents per number of people , density or area is totally irrelevant?

It just seems to me, the second you say you believe in God on this forum, you are a fundie racist bigot. To me it is nothing more than atheists, and agnostics getting defensive.
I beg your pardon?
Can you support that assertion?

You made an assertion. Now, as if that was not confusing enough you add...

Not everyone jar, just the ones who have something to say. If you need proof, you can just read through all the threads.
I've read the threads rat and I do not see any such pattern.
And with your last message I a am totally lost who "the ones that have something to say" refers to. Is that the people you claim call people fundie racist bigots or the fundie racist bigots themselves or anyone that believes in god or anyone that has something to say here?
