I pray he wins. Why is America bending over backwards for these people??? It sickens me!
Maybe he should have gone to the mosque, refused to take off his shoes and spoken a message in unknown tongues, raised his hands and shout JESUS.... They would have asked him to leave.
This is one reason why separation of church and state exists. No one should be compelled by the state to attend any religious function anywhere ever.
People have become so hyper sensitive to political correctness it is sickening, silly and irrational. We have lost sight of the FACT that freedom is the right to do as you want within the laws, moral standards, and ethical standards generally established by man. These are disappearing.
Kids are unbelievably brainwashed. I referred to a procedure as queer, as in strange, while teaching. Many of the thirty something students snickered and gasped, downright silly and stupid.
Allowing Islam into the country is like inviting death into your house.
We have become a bunch of morons.
When Jesus told us to "daily take up your cross and follow Me," He implied that it would not be easy, in fact when He used the term "cross," He was letting His followers know that there was a price that would be exacted.
Right now in the U.S. that price of following Christ is not one's life, except in extreme cases. I do believe that we will be forced to make that choice in the future, in fact, I believe we can count on it, at least that is what biblical scholars tell us.
When I was much younger and Christainity seemed to rarely be thought of as "radical, extreme, mean or hateful" as they are now, I only thought torturing Christians for their beliefs happened in the First Century. Now, I can envision it happening in my own lifetime.
My reading of scriptures seem to strongly spell out that there will be costs for standing for the teachings of Christ and this policeman's story bear witness of that fact.
I just looked up Tulsa on Wikipedia—the mayor is a Republican.
