Religion should not have special immunity from criticism.

"Ad Hominen" Why,.. does puck deserve special immunity from criticism??? Ok,.. you do not except the existence of "constructive," or "destructive" criticism,.. fine,.. I WILL use your definitions,.. 2. the act of passing severe judgment; censure; faultfinding. - My opponent says censorship should and severe judgement based on religion should not have special immunity,... Should it be allowed? My opponent claims that I am contradicting myself by claiming that people deserve "special" immunity from criticism,... I am not,.. I NEVER said that prohibiting certain criticism based on race, religion, etc. should adhere to the same by laws,... The difference between race and religion offer unique and special differences of there own. "Firstly there are already anti-discrimination laws in place for such an event. Secondly there is no criticism except what occurs internally." My opponent evidently has meant only public criticism,... hmmm,.. sorry. I did not see public OR private criticism in my opponents strict list of definitions provided by dictionary.com. Perhaps,.. PUCK,.. you are contradicting now???? "Thirdly there is no violation of ability to be a religious person which is distinct from discrimination in regards to that belief." I already concluded above that negative criticism led to oppression,.. susan did not get a job because of anti religious criticisms of her, oppression. My opponent conceded that criticism existed (internally) which led to Susan not getting a job,... Oppression does not have to physical in order to obstruct ones rights,.. "Contradiction. You claim it must have special immunity (distinctive, unique) but wish it applied broadly." Again, I NEVER said there should be standard or bar that race, religion, and sex should be governed equally,.. Each one is different and requires different rules,... "Fallacy - Straw man. It has never been argued that it does and you have failed to show the validity of lumping violence, destruction, slander, discrimination and oppression under criticism. " C'Mon,... Since I have been limited to only my opponents list of definitions,.. Here goes,.. 2. the act of passing severe judgment; censure; faultfinding. HMMM,... the act of passing severe censorship,.. By my opponents own definition examples,.. Censure: 1. strong or vehement expression of disapproval 2. an official reprimand 3. to criticize or reproach in a harsh or vehement manner 4. to give censure, adverse criticism, disapproval, or blame. Synonyms; condemnation, reproof, reproach, reprehension, rebuke, reprimand, stricture, animadversion. My opponent wishes to rid Special immunity or protection for religion against official reprimands, censure and reproach in a vehement manner (characterized by rancor or anger; violent, hostile,)www.dictionary.com,... In closing,... My opponents base for the entire argument is flawed,.. My opponent is in favor of "Religion should not have special immunity from criticism." Yet in round 1 my opponent already concedes that the western govt. " have little or no authority to formally censor material that is critical of religion." Your bases of argument is flawed after this point,... If there are currently little to no laws preventing criticism of religion,.. One wonders if the resolution my opponent is in favor of becomes a law saying religious people CAN NOT be upset about other people offending their religion. OBSURED!! My opponent also conceded in the previous round that internal critism led to oppression of Susan not getting a job. "Internal" criticism as my opponent concedes is fiber that makes up discrimination, in which laws giving "special immunity" already exist; surely my opponent isn't suggesting we get rid of anti discrimination laws. My opponent made NO points in any round,.... Does my opponent feel religions should now not even have the right to get offended by others that criticize them based on their religion??? Surely this view is not shared with the majority. Please, I hope people have the common sense to vote CON. Thank you.
