I presume established fields of science such as mathematics, physics and biology?
You continue to repeat that I think that Muslims are, and I quote "the (most) Neanderthalic wrongdoer" - where have I said that. I have said that some, you see that word some, are terrorists. I have also made it clear that religious despotism is not a good thing for people to live under. My heart weeps for the vast majority of Muslims who have no interest in such an endevour and who want to live their lives. Liberty is not the freedom to opress people.
You on the other hand hold the "enlightened" view that all people must live their lives as their society deems fit. That somehow it is the natural order of things to have complience by the barrel of the gun or slavery. Which is more morally bankrupt, an ideology that holds that human beings are equal and should all be afforded equal rights or one that deems some people to be more deserving of freedom than others?
And acedemic terrorism - give me a break, stating that I feel that a lot of the field of cultural studies has lost objectivity because of successive indocrination of students with wishy washy leftist propaganda. You are a prime example, extoling the virtues of Marx's political theory and tying it into change in society that has been generally been a good thing (feminism). Now you also attempt to seperate Marxism from the evil that was communism (100 million people dead because of a grand experiment).
And these ridiculous accusations alluding to the "Red Menace" with the substitution of Islamist or Terrorist. It is a political movement, it has support in a few quarters I am not under any illusion that there are terrorists around every corner - I am not afraid, but that doesn't mean that I am ignoring the danger. The greatest irony of this is that you are attempting to hype the, culture of fear hypothesis - saying that because one may support ones government in a particular policy then they are devoid of all free thought and will follow whatever police state measures out there. I do not support blanket surveillance, racial profiling or torture as a means of interrogation.
Now I have gathered from your posts that;
1) All societies and social practices are equally valid.
2) Sociology is a very valuable tool of analysis in all humanities subjects.
3) Because it uses statistics it is a real science and must be equally as valid as any of the natural sciences.
4) Marxism is good
5) Feminism is marxism
6) I do not like feminism, I am a misogynist dinosaur.
7) I am opposed to History, English, Philosophy and Law - by extension I am a book burning ****.
8) I am scared of Muslims even though Islam is not a race, it is a religion that spans many parts of the globe.
9) I do not believe in liberty because I don't tollerate Communism, Fascism, Islamism or any despotic ideology that harms individuals.
10) I am an ethnocentric, eurocentric, imperialist, acadenocentric, racist intellecual terrorist-fascist-thug who will kill those of different political and religious persuasion because I have the mentality of a mass murderer. Now I am not putting words in your mouth here, you called me those things and a few more in the other thread.
You just keep slurring my character by concocting more than a few lies about my politics and repeating them ad nauseum. And yet you still dont answer that simple question.
Do you think that female genital mutilation should be tollerated because they are a cultural practice in some societies?
This is a real problem in the world. It happens to a lot of girls and it damages them for life. You either don't understand the question (in which case I would be more than happy to give you relevent information of the practice,
http://www.amnesty.org/ailib/intcam/femgen/fgm1.htm) or don't want to answer because it may expose the inherent flaw of your postmodernist beliefs when it comes to morality.
