We must decide, and soon, if a “religion” that preaches slavery and mass slaughter of those who refuse to convert is compatible with American religious liberty.
In Terminello v. City of Chicago (1949), Supreme Court Associate Justice Robert Jackson wrote:
"The choice is not between order and liberty. It is between liberty with order and anarchy without either. There is danger that, if the court does not temper its doctrinaire logic with a little practical wisdom, it will convert the constitutional Bill of Rights into a suicide pact."
It has also been said that some Muslims don’t want to kill infidels. They just want other Muslims to do it for them.
There are certainly Muslims that don’t want to kill anyone, nor do they want other Muslims to kill anyone. The horror of it is they’re not living the text and intention of their faith, and Muslims that are think them apostates and do want to kill them.
While the First Amendment guarantees freedom of religion, we now must determine how far that freedom goes and whether it amounts to a civilizational suicide pact. In his Notes on the State of Virginia, Thomas Jefferson wrote:
The error seems not sufficiently eradicated, that the operations of the mind, as well as the acts of the body, are subjects to the coercion of the laws. But our rulers can have authority over such natural rights only as we have submitted to them. The rights of conscience we never submitted, we could not submit. We are answerable for them to our God. The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbour to say there are twenty gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg.

it only took 7 years to elect a president whose last name was almost “Osama” and whose middle name was “Hussein”.
“Gen.Blather, I’m curious... how long ago did this Muslim man say that to you?”
I worked at Fairchild Weston in Sarasota, Fl. from ‘87-’91. It was probably in 1990.
His plan was to have, if I recall, fifteen children, the girls not being counted. The reason was, “We need soldiers for the Jihad.”
Someone explain to me how this jibes with President Trump promoting the Abrahamic accord and with his family up to their ears in business dealings with the Saudis and the UAE.
There are 3 types of Islamists.
1. Radical: They will grab you and cut your head off for being an infidel.
2. Moderate: They will give you over to those who would decapitate you for being an infidel; see #1, above.
3.”Peaceful”: Those who secretly want you to be be decapitated for your infidel beliefs; see #1 above.
All Islamists serve the Q’aran
There are NO OTHERS
IF democrats elect commies we'll be killed by those monsters long before radical Muslims kill us. And commies don't care if you convert - the Bill Ayers types will murder millions of Americans - they've written about it. It's the Chicago Commie Way.
They reassured each other— he doesn’t mean us, we are GOOD Germans!
That is sound advice.
But there are many, MANY people on this very forum who think that when Iranians say "Death to America" that it is just rhetoric, they don't really mean it, and if they obtain nuclear weapons, they will by be bound by the perimeter of sanity and would never use them.
Unbelievable, but true.
Oh, I do. muslims nearly killed my dad in Thailand around 1962. Got the guys in the vehicle in front of my dad’s vehicle. Picked one at random just to kill people. Radical islam. People here do not have a clue.
Exactly. What word did you mean for "report"? Cohort?
I believe the “freedom of religion” means there cannot be an official government mandated religion. I also believe Islam does not conform to any notion of religion, but rather a dangerous cult that is not compatible with our free society. There is no possible path to Islam receiving 1st amendment protection.
Some Muslims, indeed, don’t want to kill infidels. They want the more fanatic Mohamedans to do that job. Some are lazy. Some are just not interested in going to Paradise just yet. Some Muslims don’t want to kill infidels but often their sons are clearer about the religion and its obligations.
Exactly!
All Jews and Christians and Buddhists and Hindus and Parsees and Bahais and Sufis and assorted Pagans and Atheists.
-Locked and loaded.
-Middle of nowhere.
-Whole town waiting for the woke to take too long at the Buckie’s gas pump.
-You ARE NOT welcome here. Sorry, you wont be staying.
100%. Ignoring those threats is like ignoring the rattle of a rattlesnake. It's a warning.
No, many of them will not be converted in their hearts but succeeding generations will lose their Islamic attachment. That is pretty much how it went in Spain after the Expulsion in 1492.

I was managing the department he was in. I had five or six really good people and him. He seemed incapable of learning anything that required more than three steps. He was a tech.
We determined the thing that limited him was he believed just about everything worked by magic. He seemed incapable of bridging the gap between his preconceived notions and life in the modern world. He had come here in his early twenties. The gulf between his preindustrial early life and the twentieth century was too large.
All those blue hairs only have one head among them?
That regime most likely engineered the invasion. I suspect these will be amnestied quickly and will be expected to vote for the effectively Communist regime in the next election if Nicaragua’s pattern is not followed. I do think it would be more dangerous to the current rulers if they try to end elections like can be done in Latin America.
