My initial post was in Response to DrZ saying “Muslim countries tend to be police states.” Then I asked him about the statistics of that statement (which I have now posted after a Google search) because although that does seem true to some middle eastern countries I wasn’t sure if that is a...

Further pasting for completeness sake then I will quit with this obviously upsetting line of inquiry:

At the risk of continuing to use Google as suggested here’s the list of Muslim majority countries it provided: I note that not all of these are Arab countries. Surely some, if not many, and possibly, as some here are arguing, most may be authoritarian countries. But surely some are also not.

Google could definitely be wrong. You can explain to me how it is with a reasoned approach though. I know if someone came along and cut and pasted some nonsense about physics or astronomy from Google or AI that I knew was clearly wrong I would try to explain why it is wrong with my expert...

I’m sorry. You suggested I Google it and this is what Google said in response. So maybe take up your issues with Google being “dumb” and not me. Since you didn’t provide sources I looked them up, as you suggested. Why would I concede a statement with the only evidence I could find being...

I just did a Google search and it told me there about 50-53 Muslim majority countries in the world. It then said; So around 50-60% might qualify. I can paste in more of the Google response but I think this addresses my question.

I will google it soon when I get the chance. I just thought you might know since it was the basis of your claim. I will now know in the future that I just need to google support for your claims instead of expecting you present it. I’m sorry you feel that way but I didn’t try to make you sound...

Pretty offensive comment. There’s *nobody* in the world who doesn’t know how many Muslim countries there are? Or how many of those are police states? It is comments like these that make me want to conclude you are not interested in good faith discussion. But I will address your post anyway. I...

It’s almost as if the “one hour” claim is bullshit. I think they don’t expect their followers to think.

Fair enough. I admit that I did not perform that simple Google inquiry.

can you provide the statistics behind this assertion? How many Muslim countries are there in the world and how many of them are police states?

Did he quit? It’s not clear he has done anything of his own volition since he entered the hospital a couple months ago or whenever it was.

What I am hearing though is no one has a right to complain unless they personally can come up with a better alternative.

There’s a rumor that someone recommended this Dana White and he was just confused.

Well, Based on this particular exchange of posts it appears that this is what you are saying. So perhaps you want to clarify your meaning? Especially this part: “If you can't get what you want you'll have to settle for what you can get. Politics is the art of the possible. Its not an excercise...
