2. They're better educated than most Americans.

3. They have more gender equality.

4. They've been here since the birth of the nation.

5. They're not just clustered in big cities.

6. They're as religious as Christians.

7. They're not as dogmatic as they are portrayed.

9. But they've also spoken out against it.

“4. They've been here since the birth of the nation. “

“The Mother Mosque of America, once known as The Rose of Fraternity Lodge and also known as Moslem Temple, in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, United States, is the longest standing mosque in North America. Built in 1934, it is the second oldest after the 1929 mosque built in tiny Ross, North Dakota, however that mosque was torn down in the 1970s and later rebuilt in 2005, leaving the Mother Mosque as the oldest standing. It is also slightly older than the Al-Rashid Mosque in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.”

One of the very, VERY few words English inherited from Islam is “assassinate.” It’s said that Shakespeare was the first to use it, in Macbeth.

‘The word “assassin” derives from a secretive murder cult in the 11th and 12th centuries called the “Hashishin”, meaning “hashish eaters”. While much of the origin of this cult has been lost, the original leader was Hasan Ben Sabah, a prominent devotee of Isma’ili beliefs. Hasan’s group was a cult of the Isma’ili sect of Muslims. (http://www.todayifoundout.com/index.php/2012/12/where-did-the-word-assassin-come-from/)';

The “hashish eaters,” after ginning up their courage, would then steal into enemy camps at night, murdering their enemies as they slept.

If anyone can come up with a “peaceful” word we’ve adopted from the middle east, I’d love to hear about it.

>>3. They have more gender equality.

Muzlum gender equality is real....sorta. They don’t play the “women and men are the same” game that the Proggies have forced upon western culture. Their equality is that men have a role and women have a role and that those roles are fundamentally equal in sharing the load.

The man leads. The woman follows.
The man commands. The woman obeys.
The man drives. The woman rides.
The man watches TV. The woman makes him a sammich.

I often say, in jest, that we need the muzlums to take over for about a decade so we can find our faith in Christ again, and we can straighten out this silly notion that equality means “everyone is the same”.

‘Bangahzi Betty’ aka Hillary <- this is hat number two

‘North African Warlord’ aka Hillary <- this is hat number one, as she pushed for the war in the first place.

Something no one seems to want to acknowledge is that in addition to following the word of allah, they are urged to follow in the footsteps of their prophet ... the highest aspiration for any musselman/musselwoman. They are not ‘radicalized’ - that’s appellation is a media creation - they are just practicing Islam as it was originally intended.

For all those who believe that Islam is another form of Christianity and that Mohammad is equivalent to Christ - Mohammad personally beheaded hundreds of Jewish captives after a battle.

3. They have more gender equality.

Then they are not really practicing muslims. Islam is the most gender biased “religion” out there.........

Inception. Inseption is an interesting construct and might mean the introduction of toxins into a system were it a real word.

Not enough sugar available to make that spoonful of crap palatable.

Funny how they pull these "factoids" (hmmm - seems to be a relation to hemorrhoids) from their butts then not notice how much they stink...

Now for a short public service announcement to all on FR:
We need to ensure we don't get another Obama-like America Hater as the next President.
The best way to ensure that is to actively support a candidate as the next President.
I prefer Cruz and my money goes to his campaign, hence the Cruz link. If you like someone else, donate to him/her (find your own link to do it) and if you use FR and don't donate, then please don't complain about the welfare leeches or those who have Obama Phones because, functionally, you are no different than any other FReeloader

PS - If you are one of those who cannot afford even a small donation to FR or a candidate, God Bless and happy FReeping!.....

GO CRUZ!! Keep it up Trump!!

Donate to FR

Donate to Cruz

U.S.A. needs to abolish the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965 and return to the National Origins Formula which restricted immigration on the basis of existing proportions of the U.S. population.

In other words, they were maniacal murderers.

I knew an article called “The Truth About Muslims in America” written by CNN, would be a barrel of laughs.

This claim that Moslems were here at our nation's beginning is to me the most mystifying. Perhaps a consul from a Moslem nation was present in one of our port cities in 1776 or 1787 but I doubt it.

Maybe they are basing this claim on the presence of African slaves newly arrived on our shores who held ersatz Islamic beliefs . . . but what a weak claim that is!

Worse that that, there are those who believe those lies, including the one speaking them. Hopefully their throat will be one of the first cut.

10. Don't draw a cartoon of Mohammed or you'll be on the run spending the rest of your life in hiding trying to prevent your own murder.

The spiritual delusion on Islam is astoundingly strong. It is beyond creepy.
