Re: Christians most persecuted group in the world as attacks increase
Whether it's a Christian getting shot, a Rohingya being ethnically cleansed or .... bacon being put on a mosque. They are all pretty weak minded repugnant hate crimes.
Ive got to disagree about the media comment though. All media websites run with underlying algorithms which let them know which news stories get the most views, and the same AI chooses to post similar stories which might generate more views.
The Muslim bacon on mosque thing is an Internet storm, fed by AI, which gives people the news they deserve to get (maybe anyway:confused:) because that's the story getting read.
People like news which already confirms their own biases. You might not, but I can guarantee you that's why that news piece got so viral.

Well X it's not like your statements has no validity but we know Facebook had teams of people, not just algorithms that feed people particular news. This holds true with most major news sites. It's nice to think an unbiased code feeds us what we want but that is not how it is, it's more human manipulation. Who wrote the codes anyway? Man or are they some type of alpha code

The trouble with Christians is that they knock on the doors of strangers constantly. It's almost as though they are looking for trouble like when a bunch of them got kidnapped preaching in the Middle East. They lack common sense as evidenced by the creationists.

Yes, I'm sure you prefer the Islamic convert or die, much more tactful

A singularity can never be binary and yet the binariness of being single can be duplicitous in only one way
