I second what you said. Though at times, the people who have already made up their mind about a topic tends to ruin the discussion, without giving proper insight on why they take their stand. I think instead of labeling threads "Closed-minded, back off", threads labels should rather read, "No blind statements"

Also, referring to the idea and not the main point of your topic, I'll include another scenario. There are some, who claim to not discriminate others, but while they don't discriminate against race, color, religion or culture, they do in fact discriminate "those who discriminate".

The human race is indeed a peculiar race~

non believers are closed minded about the possibility of the existence of some yet unobserved power  whistling.gif

Not true, non-believers have just not been provided with the significant proof of the existence of some "yet unobserved power". Though they(we, myself included), are keen to know more about this "yet unobserved power" and if provided with proper backing, are more than willing to be "believers".

U wan to talk about sex? I can either agree or disagree the best posture for having sex. But then, sometimes people who are close-minded are disturb and paranoid by the topic itself. The point is that if you wan to deny the existence of the topic which is sensitive and apparently you havent grow up , is better to back-off than come here whinning about how undeserve and ungrateful are we. I'm seriously wan to apologize of being harsh on what i said, because the fact is that i am so frustrated with some Malaysians. U know what i mean.

Talk about sex= dirty-minded
Question about GOd's capability = Devil
Talk about something deep = U are out of your mind
So be open-minded  rclxms.gif


Added on March 1, 2010, 6:05 pmI seriously cant imagine if i talk about Allah in real life with Malay fren. They sure burn my house like they burn your church. LOL. Last time i opened a thread on evolution of God. I think they might feed my body to their kids if they knew my face in real life. Holy moly.
Welcome to 21st centuries.

Personally I have had religious debates with my muslim friends, and they by no means have shown to feel even the slightest bit threatened. Also a topic of debate might not only have 2 options (agree/disagree), there may be other opinions regarding the topic, so being open-minded is to not blindly shut out others opinions but hear them out.
