Do you think Persian is a religion?

When I saw 6 pages get quickly added to this thread I knew it was going to be the usual back and forth.

I almost skipped to the end but holy crap, that gem of his made trudging through this worth it

Delete your account if you thought all of Iran was Muslims and that all Persians are Muslim you f'ing idiot 😀

Dude, Iran is 99.6% Muslim. You going "Acktuchally…..” doesn’t give you an out. It makes you WGB. Congrats.

I'm making a concerted effort to understand what could possibly be going through his mind right now and I can't find an angle that makes any sense. It's like we've stumbled upon some sort of hidden window into the thought process of the MAGA hive mind that we weren't meant to see.

It’s like when you are playing an open world game and you do something that takes you out of bounds. Yeah the game is now glitching out but you are still moving.

I wanted to disagree then I remembered he said insurance companies closed the Strait of Hormuz only a week ago so the math seems to be mathing on that one.

Speaking of math "someone leaked a second pilot is still out there when they announced they rescued one” was also a banger.

(Yes he will counter with "I was talking about the location” like they didn’t know there was a plane crash and/or couldn’t deduce the pilot could be in an area the size of delaware in less than 24 hours after the crash)

You're talking to the guy who said insurance companies closed the strait of Hormuz, you honestly think he understands what self-selection bias means?

What does Darwin have anything to do with this?

Now that I'm off the course I can respond better.

For starters I was not confusing religion with ethnicity. The majority of Iran's population is ethnically Persians that are rooted in ancient Iranian history, language, culture, etc that long predates Islam. While the vast majority of Iranians are Muslim, labeling every person in the country simply as "Muslim" because they are brown overlooks the ethnic diversity between Persians, Azerbaijanis, Kurds, and other groups. Even when one religious group forms a majority, it does not erase the different identities within the population. Especially, when many are becoming secular, which is no surprise under that regime. Ethnicity reflects ancestry and cultural heritage, whereas religion reflects belief; they are separate dimensions of identity. So yeah, cat guy calling everyone there Muslim is idiotic and rac**t just because they are in the majority. You all can try to cover his BS as much as you want because women stick up for each other, but it's still stupid as F.

Im not typing that out on my phone again but I'm right

If you're going to attempt to make the bad faith argument that Iran isn't a Muslim country because few young people show up at public prayer then you have to admit America isn't a Christian nation by the same logic... which diehard would NEVER do.

Get it right. You started incorrectly saying I wanted them all gone. Still waiting for your quote on that because I never daid that. I wanted the regime gone.

Secondly, you said I hate Muslims and I want everyone in Iran gone because of the religion. They are Persian. That isn't mixing up religion and ethnicity. I stated that above. There is a reason before 79 when the regime took over that Iran was a much more secular country with far more religious freedom, mixed marriages, and many people who lived openly without strict Islamic rules.

America isn't a Christian nation anymore. We should be but I wouldn't say we are.

All the MAGA types have fled except for Diehard who obviously is a glutton for punishment.

You're out here cheerleading for the death of Muslim holy leaders, the death of any other holy leader who replaces them, calling the death of innocent Lebanese and Iranians "taking out the trash", and now you're finally on record saying Americans should be Christian.

At what point are you finally going to drop the facade and admit you're a Muslim hating Christian nationalist?

Or, better yet, are you going to somehow attempt to claim you're an Islam-tolerant Christian nationalist?

Reports are that Hegseth was the only one in the room with a positive take on listening to Bibi and joining Israel in an attack. Trump will attempt to use Hegseth or Vance or both as a scapegoat down the line.

Have you Googled sarcasm before? Holy crap. I should have known though since you had to use a stock gravy train seal joke to try and be funny. Still waiting for a real one.

Who remembers "unconditional surrender"? Pepperidge Farms remembers.

You guys are arguing with a clown who still makes the claim that "Haitians eat cats.”

Once again, I am here for the news. All of this back and forth and you guys making it a game where you try to score points to impress each other and thinking you've made people flee, is stupid.

There are plenty of places to get news. Crying about messages on a message board is stupid.

If you cheer and laugh at death and destruction a little bit harder we might just get there.

He posted a "breaking news" story about a leaker last night. Pretty sure he thought it was related to the pilot.

Thanks for reminding us why you mostly do laughing emojis. I bet you get your medical and health information from Facebook too.
