    So any stats we disapprove of can easily be refuted by discrediting their source?

    This is what we're up against

    By the way, you're getting too hung up on Tommy Robinson. Isn't that 37 names you've called him so far? Forget the man as he's clouding your take on Islamic scripture.

    You obviously didn't read all of it. But then again I'm not surprised.
    You seem happy that Laxley Lennon can be banged up without due procedure being followed. I have to question what your leanings are?

    btw if you had read the whole article, then you would have noted that it was used as evidence in a channel 4 documentary.
    If you feel the way you do about the information used, then you need to act now, because millions will have seen it.
    The press have used it as well.

    But Islam is such a wonderful teaching, it couldn't possibly corrupt anyone and no one is bound to get hurt.

    And they all lived happily ever after.

    Of course I didn’t read it. I look at the source of your attachments and invariably decide that life’s too short to give them any further attention.
    It’s like asking Kenny Burns to give an objective assessment of Derby’s promotion prospects...never gonna happen!
    As regards Islam being such a ‘wonderful teaching’ you know perfectly well that I have little time for either Islam or any other organised religion.
    Neither do I profess myself to be sufficiently expert on Islam...pretty good at recognising bigotry and what has curiously become known as ‘fake news’ (aka being economical with the truth) when I see it though.

    Did you read my post #80 though? It was intended as a serious question looking for a serious answer, maybe you didn't read it as such or it just got lost in the jousting of the following 20 or so posts

    Sorry Andy, for what it’s worth I always read your posts and, sadly, I have to agree with much of post #80.
    On the subject of the impact of communication...the way in which various aspects of the media have been able to influence public opinion has always been a concern, but if anything - as I suspect we saw earlier tonight - modern communication has provided each vaguely literate individual with the ability to pass off dangerous nonsense as ‘fact’.

    Very true, there's 'supposition as fact' on all sides - Facebook is rife with it, a sort of 'Swale Delux'. I really think BBC have lost the plot though, and their obsession with pushing diversity is having a detrimental (ie non-liberal) effect on public opinion.
