This is what Cripplecreek said I objected to:Islam is incompatible with The USA constitution and polite society. Its more a political system than it is a “religion” and should be treated as such
It's no straw man, at all. The United States was founded on certain ideas and traditions. When we say, we have to abandon those traditions and ideas to fight the enemy that is a very bad thing. I won't go for that in any way shape and form. We can have Muslims in this country. We don't have the P.C. ideas that Bush and Obama promulgate. We can deal with them just fine on our own terms. No changing our values. No ditching the First Amendment. If what Cripplecreek said above is true, then Islam is stronger than the USA.
Certain people on the right are falling for a left wing trap. The left is ginning them up about Islam and trying to get them to abandon our tradition. After we get ride of it, their will be noting to defend. Taking the Constitution and Christianity and and changing into Islam to fight Islam is a losing battle. If you think that is necessary, then you DO believe the USA and Christianity are weaker than Islam. I'll let you in on a little secret: they aren't.
I like Cripplecreek as a poster. But I have to challenge people when they are falling for the left's trap.
Cripplecreek never said that at all! It is incredible how you misrepresent what is being said, and then when you are confronted with the actual words themselves you still misrepresent the words, in fact you twist them to say something exactly opposite to what is being said.
Cripplecreek said,
Islam is incompatible with The USA constitution and polite society. Its more a political system than it is a “religion” and should be treated as such.
He is 100% correct. Islam is not a religion but instead is a political system of absolute tyranny that seeks to control every aspect of life - political, economic, civil, religious, monetary, etc
He never said at all that "we should abandon those traditions and ideas to fight the enemy that is a very bad thing".
The only one making that absurd statement is you, no one else (well excepted for mentally disordered liberals) would so profoundly twist a statement into something that it never said in the first place. As you recall a WWII vet chastised you for misrepresenting what Jim Gilchrist is attempting to do in order to stop the invasion, and he said that outside of you, no one else was making THAT ridiculous observation or conclusion.
I think it would be better if you just post the articles and then don't comment on any of the postings, since you seem to make the opposite assertion of what it is actually saying.
And no, I'm not going to apologize for calling you out for your habit of misrepresentation, which then deflects from the entire article or postings and does not accomplish anything except for arguing about the sparsing & nuancing of words.
