The assumption then is calling someone a non Christian *including Jews and Muslims* is an attack irregardless of their position in life. Appeal to emotion is a pretty sad tactic.

Are you saying Jews and Muslims are bad and should be ashamed? if you disagree with a Muslim on theology and say Jesus was not just a Prophet are you attacking him?

I say I'm tall, if you say I'm short you are not attacking me you are disagreeing with my assertion of myself.

We are having a disconnect here. If I claim that a Muslim doesn't believe in Allah, I am attacking him. If I claim that a Jew doesn't believe in Jehovah, I am attacking him. If I claim that a Christian doesn't believe in Christ, I am attacking him. If I call you a pagan am I attacking you?

No.

I say I'm tall, if you say I'm short you are not attacking me you are disagreeing with my assertion of myself.

So what can I say that would be an attack?
