Some people think I made “Islamophobia” up
Its hilarious when you see some smart-asses who think they can trounce yours truly making asinine comments like this:
I am not an islamophobe or whatever other stupid term you fundies come up with
Frankly I am not bothered with what he thinks, but by this statement, he is implying that:
- “Islamophobia” is an invalid term in the English language.
- It is a term that “fundies” (does he think that I am an ice-cream?) conjured out of thin air.
Unfortunately for him, the word does exist and it has entered the English lexicon quite recently. Here is the official definition of the term Islamophobia.
…is a term that refers to prejudice or discrimination against Islam or Muslims. The term dates back to the late 1980s, but came into common usage after the September 11, 2001 attacks. In 1997, the British Runnymede Trust defined Islamophobia as the “dread or hatred of Islam and therefore, to the fear and dislike of all Muslims,” stating that it also refers to the practice of discriminating against Muslims by excluding them from the economic, social, and public life of the nation. It includes the perception that Islam has no values in common with other cultures, is inferior to the West and is a violent political ideology rather than a religion.
In addition, this person has tried to stigmatise Muslims by alluding that Muslims are by nature terrorists who are almost always inclined to blow themselves up:
Perhaps the same could be said about Muslims? Or does it not apply to Muslims because as we all know Muslims the world over are peace loving friendly folks who do not blow themselves up.
By this insinuation, it is totally valid to call you an Islamophobe, you Islamophobe scumbag. Any further arguments?

Wow, way to go on completely twisting most of everything I’ve said. Looks like you’re in need of an education, child.
1) You must not understand english very well because all i said is I am _NOT_ an islamophobe, (wait for it, wait for it) OR any other term you fundies come up with.
Ouch strike one, MENJ needs to set his emotions aside, read properly first, and read it again because he should realize by now he would be unable to fathom it the first go and then think of a response. Anyone who has passed English in the SPM level would know that the author of the comment did not imply that islamophobe was an invalid english word.
Fortunately for you, this is not a comment that is about your fowl comprehension of the english language and therefore I shall allow you to bask in your ignorance.
2) Muslims by nature are whaaaaaaaat?
Jesus H. Christ, you should immediately apply for a job in the main stream media, your spin-doctoring is nothing short of amazing. *Shrugs*
Perhaps I was not clear in the expression of my views, for I do not think my intentions were to imply that the entire Muslim population were Terrorists, by God that’s wrong. However, you have said in your previous post you had said what would happen to the country if HINDRAF had it’s way (I.E. Fairness to Indians, yes I know, it’s a ridiculous claim for Indians do not deserve such treatment as they worship idols and false Gods).
The point I was making across is that Muslim extremists aren’t exactly innocent either. Not the entire Muslim ummah obviously. I don’t see how this was difficult to understand? You make it sound like I said something ripped out of faithfreedom’s website.
Unfortunately, stating facts makes one an Islamophobe, alas, that truly sounds sad.
Good luck

[MENJ: Bla, bla bla...doesn't change the fact that you are an ISLAMOPHOBE.]

yes.
why, in your profile picture, that you re all alone with your “girlfriend” , where the Prophet has said - “Whenever a man is alone with a woman the Devil makes a third.”..maybe you should know this:
yariah Criminal Provisions Act (Federal Territories), Section 27, it entails:
“Any man who is found together with one or more women, not being his wife or mahram; or any woman who is found together with one or more men, not being her husband or mahram, in any secluded place or in a house or room under circumstances which may give rise to suspicion that they were engaged in immoral acts shall be guilty for an offence and shall on conviction be liable to a fine not exceeding three thousand ringgit or to imprisonment for a term not exceeding two years or to both.”
I suppose a car is not really a “secluded place”, depending where you re.
[MENJ: You call parking a car in an open space in BROAD DAYLIGHT "a secluded space"?? Either (A) you are bonkers or (B) you are just plain dumb. There is no C. ]
