You and I have different faith. Your prophet is different that mine. Your God has differwnt characteristics and identity than mine. Bless us both. You are a man taking care of your wife and children. I respect and admire that beyond words.

There's an ugly truth here however: My faith in Jesus Christ as Savior allows tolerance of your religious beliefs. My nation, my Constitution, mandates tolerance of your religious beliefs. My belief in Christ calls me to feel nothing but good will for you and your family.

The fundamental dogma of YOUR religion ... calls you to convert, kill and destroy the unbelievers. Me. My family. My neighgbors. My Freeper pals. My countrymates. My World.

You may deceive yourself in your virtuous journey to build a peaceful and enlightened prospretity for you family. Damn right you should!! That's what honorable men do for their children. America values that. America values you. But your religion is an isidious enemy of everything America stands for. Your religion calls for you to kill me.

You say you will do what is "righteous" .... I would never trust you watching my back. I couldn't insult a man more. Sorry.

You're going to have to learn, some day, the difference between Islam and Wahhabi extremism.

Christianity has its extremist groups, and has had times when the extremists controlled.

When at Beziers, the Christian Army asked the Papal Legate, Arnald-Amalric, how to distinguish the heretical Cathars from their more numerous Catholic neighbors, his reply was "kill them all - God will recognize his own".

Islam is not our enemy - an extremist islamic philosophy is, and those who hold to it. Just as Germany was not our enemy, but Nazism and its followers, and Russia was not, but the Communist doctrine and the nomenklatura.
