Is that supposed to be an insult?
No, I have never even seen that word before. Nobody that I know
uses such language. There must be some common way to say
whatever you are trying to say that all Americans can understand.

I think whether it is intended as an "insult" or not is kind of beside the point. What's more interesting is that although I accept that he is a Christian because he says so, he is unable to demonstrate the same common decency in return and accept that I am not a Muslim despite the fact that I have told him I'm not several times.
Why else would you defend Muslims with such passion? You said you
were not a Christian and not an atheist and you live in a Muslim
country. So if you refuse to admit it, I just thought I would help you
out.

Are you simply unable to extend the same common decency to me as I do to you when I take you at your word when you describe yourself as a Christian?

So the only religions in the world are christianity and islam? Your prejudice is showing. Do you need for me to define prejudice?

Perhaps you have heard of Hindu's? Jainism? Rastafarians? Baha'i? Buddhism? Confucianism? Epicureanism?

Before you make grand assumptions, you should study the subject you profess to follow.

Yes, but as yet you have not described yourself as a ????? have you?
Until then I feel free to assert that Islam is the most logical conclusion
for your religion based on your own words.

P.S. But you feel ashamed to admit it.

Conversely deeply prejudiced against all other religions. In your mind they are all the work of the devil and therefore it doesn't matter if they get killed in battle since by definition your religion is the only true religion on the planet. Does that about sum it up sparky?

I was told by robbie carobbie that the word is "Spanky" not "Sparky".

The people believing in false religions need to be converted to Christianity
and there would be no need for anyone to be killed.

I'll do it. RJ, you were called SPARKY, not spanky. It was not a misunderstanding, or typo. Think real hard and you can figure it out...
