It was primarily Christians who sought freedom of worship by coming to the New World, but since then America has flourished with just about every hybrid of religion you can imagine. And we manage to get along pretty well. Of course we must ‘endure’ overly nice people with tracts and flowers or those who woo you with green Jell-O.

According to Reliance of The Traveler: The Classic Manual of Sacred Law, Sharia is the stated goal for Muslim and non-Muslim alike. After all, Islam means submission. I think there’s a theme here. The Council on American Islamic Relations has said as much:

The Three Stooges called it correctly.
huh?
Hang in there SG, the movement against Islam is growing.
Didja hear that Syria has banned the Burka veil in its Universities!
Yea, but we continue to let Islam advance here. Does not make sense does it?
