The Muslim religion preaches the extreme and death to those who do not believe in it. Jihadists are following their religion. They are the greatest threat to the security of the world and therefore they should be kept out of our country and confined to their own, where they can preach what they want and live in the dark ages if they so choose.
They are not a threat because they don't live in democracies, they are a threat becasue of what they believe. Read their "holy" book and see for yourself.
There are hundreds of mosques right here in the USA and millions of muslims, many of whom call themselves Americans. Yet their silence is deafening. Which one can I trust? I have not heard or seen a single one of them speak out against the disregard for human life or the violence that you say is "not the average Muslim."
What and who is the "average Muslim"? Is it one that doesn't commit the violence himself but condones it, finances it and does nothing to prevent it or won't even raise his voice against it? Who are these "moderate and average" Muslims of which you speak and where do they live? Why don't you tell me that? Or should I just wait for the next act of murder and the repetition of silence from the bretheren of those that commit it?
You see I don't care what they "believe" but I do care what they do in my country. As long as they stay in their own country I don't care how they live. I would like to see us stay out of their countries and stop trying to tell them what to believe, how to live or what to do. However, the minute they come out of their lairs they make themselves fair game.
If they or you want me to believe that the "average Muslim" is a good guy that I should trust and give sanctuary in my house, then let the "average Muslims" come forward and let me hear their voice. Until they do, I am unable to tell the difference between this average guy you're talking about and the one that's just waiting for his chance to stab me or my brother in the back.
I'm not asking them to think like me or to believe what I believe and I really don't care if they read the Quran or the Bible. As long as they are a threat I don't want them in my house. It will take a lot of convincing on their part to get me to accept that they are not my enemy. That's their problem not mine. Until they are able to do it, I would like them to go home. I have neither the time or the desire to "convert" them to anything.
He's got an awful lot of us to deport, no? ;-)
There most certainly is a Gehinnom [Hell]. It can take on many forms. Reading your posts proclaiming yourself an "expert on Judaism" is one of them...
try Samuel... You are no expert you know... The fact that you are kosher doesn't make you any expert on Judaism... It makes you a smug person without any self-criticism...But not an expert by any means...
Because Gehenom isn't Hell and Jews do not believe inb Hell... And that comes from the rabbis you listen to!
At beemet tipsha!
"He's got an awful lot of us to deport, no? ;-)"
More than he knows, and we're not patsies, either. This kind of stuff is more annoying than anything else, but it needs to be countered whenever it pops up.
I'm glad to see that most Freepers don't buy this crap.
The Founders were mostly Christians, not Deiests or atheists like you claim. Only two or three claimed to be deists (G-d fearers) and I know of none who espoused atheism.
Probably an immigration thread active.
Yeah, as an American that doesn't know for sure, but has some ideas, (and a bunch of guns), I'll stand with you too.

And that's why these jingoistic yahoos never act. They only talk.
Yep. These people move in a herd, from trashing-Muslim threads to trashing-Mexican threads.
But they can still make a lot of damage... That's the peoblem!
Which state? :-)

"IMO, the key phrase here is... right of the people peaceably to assemble....; if you attack me/us we get to slap you down in spite of your religion, not because of it.
I gotta believe in the Constitution, spent too many years defending it."
This is exactly why our founding fathers included the separation of The Church and The State in the Constitution. It prevents one religious view set from governing the masses. That was the problem with the Church of England and the Royal Family lead by King George. George let the The Church of England have the sole rule of morals and enacted them into law. The legislation of morality will never work and is wrong. At the same time our leaders and legislator have to act with a strong moral conviction. It is this conviction that will prevent any type of legislation that would target any one religion or belief system. Christianity was the majority belief system in place at the birth of this country. As it has been pointed out in this tread individual interpretations were flawed. As to be expected by imperfect humans we are, but the strength of conviction over came and will alway over come any flaws. This last election is proof of this. There is a clear definition right and wrong in this world, and right will always win out over wrong in the end. To have someone make a public condemnation of anything a requisite of freedom is wrong. The type of people you seek to condemn are present in our country. I think everyone in this forum will agree.The right thing to do is to support our government in the pursuit and the delivery of justice to these people. America is the world's backyard. It is that, that makes us strong.
Thank you.
Internment will come first.
Then, after all death cultists in America are registered, they will have, in some cases, limited options.
Resistance will be, ultimately, futile. IMO.
There are too many people that see the death cult and its sleepers in America for exactly what it is.
