Actually the 150-year-old oak tree was allowing it’s family arranged fiance, a 350-year-old oak tree’s pollen to fertilize it’s acorns while talking on a cell phone. This was an honor killing.

Nope they won’t. They are often at the forefront of “Render that word as ‘God’ in English, please.”

It’s moongod confusion, wished by the moongod himself.

Oh groan, lol. Kinda.

Islam is one of the more violently nutty spiritualities in the world. Even Satanists are usually more peaceful. They took a mischmosch of Judaism and Christianity, mucked the details around, and pumped it full of hate and cowardice. Sometimes it has stayed docile, but sometimes it has gone wilder than a pitbull with rabies.

Nice to know the muslims still support freedom of religion.

Makes a lot more sense to worship a tree than to worship what these animals consider a god.

Not only that, the tree was spying for the Mossad!

The 150 year old oak was not wearing a burka and was not escorted by male family members either. I think the 150 oak was even driving a car. I believe the tree had a facebook account.

Christians, at least, used to be smarter than that.

The Puritans banned the celebration of Christmas in colonial America for pretty much the same reasons.

Not to say there weren’t grim exceptions. Our dear Puritans were among them.

IMHO, Catholics were sometimes sloppy in the opposite direction. They embraced stuff into a Christian world view and then sometimes seemed to just wink as pagan connotations arose again. Hence overreactions such as the Puritans’. Stilted theologies such as Calvinism were part of the problem. In order to increase their “luck,” Puritans did not go into territory where serious claims and counterclaims between God and the devil existed. They played it spiritually safe.

Anyhow I’d sure be a lousy Puritan because I am not shy to fight stuff away from Satan any more. Now, I do wait for the power from the Holy Spirit. Sometimes God says hold back and I hold back. But then sometimes God says fight and I fight.

SIN

The freak moslems are ever crescent in SIN

"Nanna, the Sumerian name for the moon god, may have originally meant only the full moon, whereas Su-en, later contracted to Sin, designated the crescent moon"

PAY ATTENTION

Gosh, that was probably the only tree in the whole country.

Pay attention to what? To your big head? Are you trying to set up traps or are you trying to actually edify.

Allah was an alternative name for this moon god. That is well documented.

Confusion has arisen because that same word was also used by Christians of the same era for the God of the bible. Missionaries vouch for this.

As you said yourself: PAY ATTENTION. To facts, not to your big head.

The origination of what you call islam as a mishmosh of Chrisitianity and Judaism is facile and an unacceptable equivocation as those people have no interest in GOD and any illusion or allusion that they are redeemable by acknowledging ALLAH as anything other than PAGAN is STUPID, but that is only my opinion.

I have every interest in you and your edification of fellow FReepers to GOD.

Send in Al Gore. He’ll defend the trees. After all, he invented them.

I know why the jihadists cut down the tree. They heard someone yell “Tea party time” and they thought they said “Tree party time”.

Tree cutting, done by FOM and FOO (Friends of McCain) and (Friends of Obama). They also specialize in home demolition; population reduction; civilization destruction; and hummus preparation.

People assume that the Druids long since died out, but you can’t be too careful. Cut the tree down in case there are some secret Druids in the vicinity.
