I'm surprised and happy that so many fp'ers see his arguments as logical and good rather than, like so many, being idiots who simply block out any such discussion saying that its racism or some syupid shit like that.

That's what I mean my smug and self-righteous.
Anybody who doesn't "see his arguments as logical and good" is lumped into a group of "idiots who simply block out any such discussion saying that its racism or some stupid shit like that".

That's because his arguments are logical and good?

He is a great actor and comedian
[QUOTE=rathat48;22373104]Also, it's not stereotyping if almost all of them actually think like that.
Like black people liking watermelon is not really a stereotype because EVERYBODY loves watermelon.[/QUOTE]

That was a pretty cool video with a lot of good points.

And?
[QUOTE=Thorny;22377722]That's because his arguments are logical and good?[/QUOTE]
My point is that the view his arguments are "logical and good" is just that - a view. An opinion.
The poster I quoted said that the people disagreeing with this opinion were "idiots", as they had a differing view.
I used this to point out that Pat Condell himself has this quality.
[QUOTE=Thorny;22378504]And?[/QUOTE]
I commented on how he is just in the videos...
Precisely why he is popular, though not many people see it like that.
this man speaks truth
I could not stand the video. Not because of his point, no, but because the audio is only in my left ear. Headache creator.
This guy is very missguided

That should explain the stuff you need to know
As said in the thread I linked to, there are 1200 billion muslims by the 2000 diagram, judging all of over a few thousand radicals is dumb, 10 000 radicals shouldn't change the view of people on the rest 1199 billion muslims. Final point ; 99,9999 percent of all the muslims are pacifists.

He's not very funny. He just doesn't like Muslims.
At the end he adds that in the future intelligent Muslims will feel embarrassed about this whole jihad thing.
The majority of Muslims don't consider extremists as real Muslims.
To those of you bitching endlessly about Muslims - if it makes it easier for you, respect the people, not the religion.
I thought this guy was very charismatic and I found him pretty funny. Should be a satarical comedian in my opinion.

My point is that anyone who dismisses the validity of his points by labelling him as self-righteous or blindly labels him a racist, is an idiot.
The majority of his critics are just butthurt or simply too stupid to understand and think he is victimising muslims.

The majority of those muslims you say about live in islamic countries and are extremely sexist and would see nothing wrong with punishing women for being raped by stoning.
Peaceful muslims, pacifists, great, they are peaceful... but wait, they still have the women in their family degrade their dignity by making them wear that sexist face covering clothing?
Thats something I cannot respect. Peaceful or not, I disagree with, and find offensive, so many fundamental islamic views.
Oh and lets not forget that pakistan banned facebook and youtube just because of the draw mohammed day. That completely backs up the generalisation that islam opposes free speech.
I like him. Shame he supports UKIP though.
Pat Condell is my favourite bipedal carbon-based life form.

I'm afraid you're generalising.

what a ridiculous thing to say
I likes his earlier anti-religion movies, but all he does now is say muslims are the worst thing ever and that we should vote for racists.
Pat Condell is a misinformed idiot that wallows in his own little circle and smirks because he thinks he's acting cool by being "politically incorrect".
He calls out whoever he likes and doesn't have anything interesting to say. All he does is feed into Islamophobia like so many scared British people do.
If you actually believe Islam is taking over the UK, you need help.

Religion was dormant, what a fucking idiot. We pay taxes to the head of the Anglican Church.
I totally watch his channel all the time.
