Back in the early 70's, I 'lived' with a girl that was Catholic...We'd get drunked up on the weekends and she would go to church on Sunday...I went with her one time...

Didn't understand much of anything since most of it was in Latin...Hey, what a beautiful building tho...

Catholics have worshipped in the vernacular since the mid 1960's. Either the "early 70's" part is true, or the Latin part is true, but they both can't be. I lived through those years and remember them well.

Fat American men have Kripsy Kreme, Star Trek and Internet porn--they don't need Islam.

In fact, she explains, she liked the way "Islam demands a closeness to God. Islam is simpler, more rigorous, and it's easier because it is explicit. I was looking for a framework; man needs rules and behavior to follow. Christianity did not give me the same reference points."

What a shame that so many continue to think that they must "earn" their way.

Eph 2:8-9: For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.

????

Focus and understanding which requires personal effort via conviction is lost anymore.

For some reason I didn't find any numbers in the post.

How many are actually turning to Islam?

"European women really want to join the Culture of Rape???"

The Religion of Islam is strikingly similar to what a human trafficker would do to trap a woman to become a prostitute. They show the good, and then when they have control, the bad is revealed.

The contradictions in the Koran are massive...and the IMAMs are extremely skilled in spreading the word...They start with someones house, then the community, town/City, state, and country....by separating the classes, races or wherever they can "provoke" the current government and status quo...One person at a time....Then, they blame the authorities and lie about the responses from the government or military, police etc....."See we told you so" type of idea.

They show the nice, peaceful, love your fellow man, etc....and they have completely analyzed the other religions to show where they are wrong. Then, they start pulling people in with incredible charisma. Once they have the convert, they work with them, to build the relationship. It's the same thing as Jim Jones. Islam is actually a very large cult group. For example...The Peoples Temple was initially structured as an inter-racial mission for the sick, homeless and jobless. He assembled a large following of over 900 members in Indianapolis IN during the 1950's. "He preached a 'social gospel' of human freedom, equality, and love, which required helping the least and the lowliest of society's members. Later on, however, this gospel became explicitly socialistic, or communistic in Jones' own view, and the hypocrisy of white Christianity was ridiculed while 'apostolic socialism' was preached." 1 It was an interracial congregation -- almost unheard of in Indiana at the time.

Jones developed a belief called Translation in which he and his followers would all die together, and would move to another planet for a life of bliss. Mass suicides were practiced in which his followers pretended to drink poison and fell to the ground.

The same with Islam, or a human trafficker, they show the good parts until they get the convert. Then about the time the recruit, who is now bringing people in, they get those "obedient eyes", the manipulation begins. They are looking for converts that do not fit the Arab look, for suicide bomber, gathering intelligence, and other uses....Most Americans have no, I mean no idea how it works. The Saudi Prince who offered New York money for rebuilding after 911 was told where to stick their "blood money". However, it appears that Harvard and GWU, stupidly took the 20 million each from a Saudi Prince 2-3 weeks ago to teach Islam in the college. Now, the Prince basically owns Harvard and GWU. I saw how they worked when I was living in Saudi Arabia for four years and in Kosovo for five years. These are facts and not opinions, I might add.

"There is more space for family and motherhood in Islam, and women are not sex objects."

Then she has no f**king clue. Mohammad was a pediphile. Islam and sexual slavery go hand in hand. I guess even the mass rapes of Swedish women by muslim men did not cross her mind either.

gotribe has it. The New Testament is plenty fuzzy. That's why you have liberal denominations, conservative ones, the Catholic Church, etc. Islam is all about ordering people to do specific things. You don't have authors speculating on possible meanings of words and verses, like in Christianity. There's no dissent in Islam.

Tales of Valour

Narrator.....Darrell Hammond
Garkenlot.....Jack Black
Sir Parrish.....Jimmy Fallon
Virgin.....Amy Poehler
Himself.....Tracy Morgan



Announcer: It's time once again for "Tales of Valour".

[ dissolve to Narrator sitting at chair with book in his hand ]

Narrator: Tonight's Tale of Valour is entitled "The Song of Parrish", and it deals with a kingdom under the spell of a horrible monster. Once a year, the people were forced to sacrifice a virgin of fair face and noble temperament to this foul beast. This year,however, was different, for the brave knight, Sir Parrish, had set out to rescue his true love, Maid Gwendolyn.

[ dissolve to the monster Gorkenlot salivating over the fresh, young virgin ]

Gorkenlot: Yes! Yeah!

[ Sir Parrish jumps into the scene ]

Sir Parrish: Unhand her, you foul beast!

Gorkenlot: Who dares challenge Garkenlot?

Sir Parrish: I am Parrish the Lionhearted, true love to the Maid Gwendolyn. [ holds up his mighty sword ] Release her at once, or suffer at the steel of my sword, which has been forged by the fires of Mount Thunder, and bequeathed to me by the -

[ Gorkenlot simply punches Sir Parrish in the face, knocking him to the ground ]

Sir Parrish: Dammit! you're quick for a mosnter.

Gorkenlot: Any last words?

Sir Parrish: I'm sorry I have failed you, Gwendolyn.

Maid Gwendolyn: You have braved, and I will always love thee.

Sir Parrish: Of all the wanton women in the village, you stood above them as the purest.

Gorkenlot: [ sidetracked by this information ] Wait, wait - there's a lot of women in your village.

Sir Parrish: Yes.

Gorkenlot: Maybe we can strike a little bargain here.

Sir Parrish: I might be willing to listen to something.

Gorkenlot: I'll let you live, and you can take the virgin with you. But you have to bring me back a slutty girl.

Sir Parrish: [ confused and outraged ] What?!

Gorkenlot: You know, like a bored housewife who's kind of hot and feels neglected by her husband.

Sir Parrish: But you don't want a virgin?

Gorkenlot: I'll be honest with you, buddy - on paper, a virgin sounds great. But in reality, not that good.

Sir Parrish: But I thought even a monster would desire someone who was pure.

Gorkenlot: I'm just looking for a woman who knows what she's doing.

Maid Gwendolyn: There's nothing to be prized above purity.

Sir Parrish: I cherish your purity.

Gorkenlot: Yeah. Come talk to me after your wedding night. Tell me how great it was.

Sir Parrish: So you want a slutty girl?

Gorkenlot: Absolutely! Now, come on, let me think.. I like dark hair, what else? I don't want a skinny girl, either. I like a little junk in the trunk!

Sir Parrish: So you want a big girl?

Gorkenlot: No, no, no! I don't want a hog! But, you know, a few extra pounds are okay. Let's face it - bones are for dogs!

Sir Parrish: Okay!

Gorkenlot: Maybe a lady in her 40's, who might be a little more sexually adventurous!

Sir Parrish: So virgins aren't adventurous?

Gorkenlot: Again - talk to me after your wedding night.

Maid Gwendolyn: Listen. I can be adventurous. I-I-I once French-kissed a boy for ten seconds!

Gorkenlot: She's a real hell cat!

Maid Gwendolyn: After we're married, I might leave the lights on while we do it!

Sir Parrish: [ alarmed ] Ouch! I see what you mean.

Gorkenlot: And good luck getting her to go down south!

Sir Parrish: Really?

Gorkenlot: And if you do talk them into it, they think it's a chew toy! Ah!

Sir Parrish: Is that why you let last year's sacrifice go free?

Gorkenlot: No! She was thirteen! I'm a monster, but that's sick!

Sir Parrish: I didn't know it was so tough being a monster.

Gorkenlot: Well, it is! I don't want to be a monster. I don't want to hurt your village. All I've ever wanted.. is to be loved.

Sir Parrish: I think I understand. A witch turned you into a monster, and you have to get a woman to fall in love with you before you can turn back into a prince.

Gorkenlot: Hey, if that'll get a nasty broad up here, sure I'll go with it! So go untie your lady, get out of here!

Maid Gwendolyn: You know, I can be wild - I own a black bra.

Sir Parrish: [ unties Gwendolyn ] Hey, I was thinking.. maybe we should give each other space..

Maid Gwendolyn: [ confused ] What?

Gorkenlot: Hey, hurry back now - with the slutty girl!

Sir Parrish: [ laughing ] I promise, Gorkenlot!

Gorkenlot: Hey! If you're not back by Friday, I'm gonna kill your whole family!

[ dissolve back to Narrator, his nose buried in his book ]

Narrator: And Sir Parrish kept his word, and brought the monster a slutty older woman. She kind of looked like Melanie Griffith with dark hair. And there's pictures in this book of them doing it! But, because this is TV, I can't show them to you. But, take it from me, a connoisseur of porn, they look so great. Daddy like! D-yamn! I gotta show this book to Tracy. [ looks offstage ] Hey, Tracy! Check this out!

[ Tracy Morgan enters stage and looks over Narrator's shoulder at the book ]

Tracy Morgan: Oh, snap! That monster's bonin' that lady! That's hilarious!

[ fade out ]

They've grown up without acquiring any understanding of the nature of evil and, as such, are incapable of recognizing it when it comes calling.

That's what happens in an environment of moral relativism.
