Any space on this great site for a conservative republican Muslim?

Posted on 06/28/2012 4:03:22 PM PDT by Purekarma

Hi all! I just joined today. I was perusing through this great site and thought to myself that this site is the perfect fit for me! You all hold the same conservative values that I do!

Thanks for having me :)

Go Romney!

...site layout is a little confusing though...

How about we just cut to the chase and get you on record...

Do you believe that Jesus was just a prophet or was He God manifested in the flesh?

Another thing, your religious tome contends with the principals upon which this nation was founded in that all men are not equal. It says some are worthy and others aren't.
How do you answer such criticism?
(and, yes, I'm quite familiar with your tome so there's no need to ask...quote away, if you so choose)

This place, IMO, is about more than just politics and conservatism, again IMO, is about more than just politics as well.

It depends.

What is your opinion vis-a-vis we "Kafur?"

Do you subscribe to the 5 (actually 6) pillars of Islam...the 6th being Jihad?

Are you one who wants to see Sharia replace our Constitution?

We'll start off with those easy ones and depending on your answers, go from there.

BTW, though hardly an authority on Islam, I have studied it for 3 years and know quite a lot about it and I've come to the conclusion that though there are "Moderate Muslims" there is NO such thing as "Moderate Islam."

Many fine Navy Officers I knew well are now behind bars so the little Napoleon can push his agenda. Did you ever fly at Konya?

Very strange.
Why should anyone feel a need to announce his ethnicity and religion when joining FR?
By their words and deeds, shall we know them.
Color me wary.

No, I never flew in Turkey itself.

Just flew with NATO in the USA and got to know the Turks because my wife cooked shwarma (kosher) for the IDF guys at a group picknick and the Turks all came over, dying for it.

That and Shiner Bock, instant friends.

muzzies at a recent street festival in Dearborn, Michigan “welcome” Christians who attempt to proselytize them. The koranimals cannot stand anyone questioning or speaking the truth about islam. muzzies are violent. period.

There is room for you.

But keep in mind that the order of words by which you identify yourself is important. Conservative - first. Republican - a brand name. Muslim - your beliefs.

If your muslim faith is a personal one, and does not extend to the political arena (such as Sharia law substituting for American law), you will do fine. If your beliefs bring you to condemn natural American concepts, you will have a hard time.

I wish you well, FRiend (my shorthand for a person I have met at Free republic).

Also - remember that factual debate is the key to respect here. Emotional debate, and certainly name calling, will earn you ridicule.

Good luck.

I hope you are aware that most conservatives are at best voting for Romney only, only to get Obama out, and that’s the only reason.

Just a warning, if you post something that ‘some’ people don’t like, they will come after you...I’ve been on here for years and...

You can't be taken seriously on FR until you have been suspended at least once by the mods. Doesn't matter if your words and actions are later vindicated.

No guts, no glory.

Pure Karma, I will treat you with respect but you will have to be able to articulate why you believe/think the way you do.

If there are any other muslims on this board, I think they keep quiet about it. Due to their behavior in the USA and around the world, as a group, they are not respected. Most on this board may believe than an individual muslim here or there may not be a threat. But we would sure like to see a prominent muslim or two stand up and deplore the violence here and overseas that is done for jihad purposes.

We are just not seeing it.

Anyone can do evil and say they do it for a cause - jihadis for Islam, an white person for the Klan, a black man for the African nation, a so-called Christian like Phelps against the military; an illegal Mexican for La Raza.

What is the difference? Prominent white people stand up for other races, to the point of blood; prominent black people deplore thug culture; prominent Christians seriously support the military up to and including on the battlefield; legal Mexican immigrants push for the borders to be enforced. So we understand that a few “in name only” representatives of various groups don’t actually represent those groups.

But where are the prominent Muslims campaigning for the defense of Christians in Nigeria, fighting against freedom of speech violations in Michigan, pushing for the prosecution of jihadi terrorists in the military, etc? We don’t see or hear from them. That is the problem.

You say you have conservative opinions. What are they?

Ok! Now, by post #70 and no response, it is safe to conclude with certainty that this just another marxist troll walking by and tossing in a grenade.

There is always space for newbies here.
Have you read the home page?

How long you, personally, can retain the position is an entirely different matter.

Based on your first post, I’ll make an educated guess of less than 72 hours.
Assuming you again post something as arrogant,inane and stupid as your first post....

Unfortunately only catholics are allowed to do that on this site.

Silliest thing I've read on this site in months.
