I hope this is not taken as a 'political' post. There is no intention that it be political. I
received the link in an email and thought it was pretty scary.

People practicing their religion is scary to you? Better not go to a
church in the U.S. then!

I find all fundamentalism very scary. I don't find these wackos any
scarier than born again Christians.

What's scary is that these folks block access to business, streets, homes, etc,, and the law is
afraid to do anything.

What is scary is that CBN has convinced you that this is so. The truth
is:

In your example, the law took action - arresting those who infringed on the rights of others. That
is quite appropriate. Note also that the Catholics haven't killed anyone over the blasphemy.

A statement like, "Note also that the Catholics haven't killed anyone
over the blasphemy, " calls for no response.

You and Harry keep missing the word 'the'. Perhaps this will help you both:

DEFINITE ARTICLE

THE

Articles in English are invariable. That is, they do not change according to the gender or number of
the noun they refer to, e.g. the boy, the woman, the children

'The' is used:

1. to refer to something which has already been mentioned.

Example: An elephant and a mouse fell in love.
The mouse loved the elephant's long trunk,
and the elephant loved the mouse's tiny nose.

So, big surprise! Articles in English don't change gender! Surprise.

I suppose you also think THE Muslims mentioned in the article are the
only ones that have ever acted as fundamentalist thugs.

It takes a while to help you understand. I used the word 'the' in my comment, and wasn't referring
to Muslims. You've since deleted it along with the pertinent parts of the grammar lesson I so
helpfully provided.

So, I guess you should be treated the same as Harry...with the respect you deserve.

Goodbye.

You used the word "the." Apparently, you tried to give it some special
meaning that is appropriate for you and not others, so when I used the
word *exactly* the way you did, your response was "Goodbye."

Fine, "Say goodnight Gracie."


Herring envisions himself an expert dialectician and grammarian. The
reality is, he makes a fool of himself every time he tries to prove it.
