We have a secular humanist society and freedom of speech. Occasional immorality is the price. It's definitely a mixed bag. Parents have to raise kids with proper values, and that takes a lot of work. The nanny state won't do it for you. Muslims may have a problem with that.

I was going to post a reply along those lines last night, but my cat stomped on the keyboard and after I got back to where I thought I was, I forgot what I'd been doing. It really makes me mad when men call women 'whores' and worse, and never assign the same blame to men who are the other half of the sex act. Middle Eastern idiot men are the lowest of the low, since they're stuck in the 12th century. They'll never get anywhere in this life or the next..which they are heading for, lickety split.

Christianity teaches that we are all immoral. That is our weakness in the battle against the Muslim. The Muslim is convinced he is the only true moralist. A great difference of opinion.

Is it immoral to resist terrorism by religious extremists? If they think so, they should not be Americans.

Personally, I boycott all Arab owned businesses. I DON'T TRUST THEM. If someone organized a nation-wide boycott of all Arab owned businesses, they'd have to go to Canada or Australia or somewhere. GOOD RIDDANCE!! Anyone out there with the clout, gonads and network to organize such a boycott?

I share your sentiments. I don't patronize a local convenience store (a five-minute walk away) because it is owned by Pakistanis. I drive about three miles to a Quikchek to buy my paper, coffee and whatnot. There are many Quikcheks in northern New Jersey and none that I have visited (I love their coffee) employ middle eastern types, unlike Dunkin Donuts, 7-11 and independent convenience stores. I also purchase my gasoline from either Sunoco (Saudi-free) or BP (North Sea).

Two nights before the 9-11 mass murders, the hijackers were getting drunk at a strip joint.

The 9-11 hijackers were having a grand old time in the good old USA, weren't they, indulging in all kinds of vices. But then, any Muslim man let loose in a non-Muslim nation is like an alcoholic let loose in a liquor store (often quite literally -- King Fahd, the alcoholic and bedridden King of Saudi Arabia, was quite a playboy in his younger days, enjoying himself immensely in Beirut and Europe while waiting for his predecessor, Khalid, to kick the bucket). They deride Western women as whores but say it with a gleam in their eyes and hope in their hearts. Of course, they expect their womenfolk to remain chaste and sober.

"Loaning money for interest is also immoral to muslims (as is insurance, they are considered forms of "gambling")"

As a Jew, even I must say that in certain respects Islam has some laudable values, particularly in hospitality and caring for the sick. In other areas it sucks..

Thus proving yourself to be a stupid bigot. I am a "Middle Eastern type" as you put it, I bet you'd rather me locked up hey? Even funnier is your point about coffee, which is most likely an ARABica blend...ha, ha, ha.

It might also surprise you to learn that many Arabs are not Muslim. My family is largely Jewish of largely arab extraction. I have many Christian, Druze and Muslim friends all of whom consider themselves Arab.

LBJ, Ted Kennedy, and Humphrey were not neo-cons.

It is unfortunate when Dhimmi adopt the culture of their oppressors.
Jews and Christians lived all over the region for hundreds of years before Mohammed unified the nomads of the Hijaz.

Understand.

Have read about the farts but forget the details. Sounded pretty elaborate and detailed.

"Most U.S. Muslims see U.S. as immoral"

And most U.S. Citizens see Muslims as Murderers.

Most of the respondents understand "immorality" to mean high levels of sexual promiscuity and the moral climate within popular culture, according to the analysis by the Institute for Social Policy and Understanding.

Using that definition, and as a Christian, I would consider our nation immoral as well.

Hopefully these Muslims also think the many heinous acts committed by Muslim extremists/terrorists around the world are immoral as well.

Moslems think Americans are immoral? Well, I think Moslems are unwashed, backward, ignorant, hatefilled bigots who worship a moon god and revere a pedophile as the great leader of their sadistic faith. So, call me un-PC: I'll wear the label proudly.

So naturally, they moved here.

Get these extra-terrestrials out of my country!

The strong opposition to the Bush Administration policies (as registed in the poll) indicate they do not.

If Islamofascists (and Saddam) are not "real" muslims, then what is the problem with pursuing them to the ends of the Earth?

"Ibrahim Hooper is a disgrace."

Ibrahim Cooper is an overweight, whiny propagandist who is nothing but a younger version of Ted Kennedy, but with a prayer mat instead of a bottle of scotch.

There's a lot of truth in that.
