ok, 99.5% of terrorists are muslim.
The Ka'ba is in Mecca.
Do you believe the Koran is the word of God?Nope. I fall somewhere between agnostic and deist. I just don't believe in religious bigotry.

Do you believe Islam is non-bigoted religion?
The Framer's of America's founding documents would BTTT that comment.
They rejected any big government dictatorial hierarchy of men in both church AND state.
Do you believe Islam is non-bigoted religion?All faiths have bigots, Muslims included.

"I don't need the Pope PERIOD, to be a christian."Nevertheless, the Pope is the acknowledged leader of the largest single Christian Church in both the USA and the world. He and our President agree on the idea that Islam is a legitimate religion with the same deity as Christianity.The Framer's of America's founding documents would BTTT that comment.
They rejected any big government dictatorial hierarchy of men in both church AND state.
True, the Pope does not speak for all of Christianity. Likewise, the fundamentalists do not speak for all of Islam.
-Eric
"most Muslims who live here moved to avoid the fundamentalists, not to promote their cause."
"Likewise, the fundamentalists do not speak for all of Islam"
"All faiths have bigots" "I just don't believe in religious bigotry."
Applause, Applause!
You do realize that you've opened yourself up to labels and name calling now....
Glad to meet you. I don't believe in religious bigotry, either.
"Nevertheless", what FBD said and what I said is true.
Where in the cult classic called the koran does it say Jesus Christ is our Lord, our Saviour and, as the Catholic church teaches, God?
"Islam isn't in America to be equal to any other faith, but to become dominant...The Koran, the Muslim book of scripture, should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on Earth."
-Omar Ahmad - Co-founder of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR).
C.A.I.R. are the guys you see on FOX, CNN, et.cetera, defendending this misoginistic religion; whose practitioners do not allow women to leave their homes without a male family member accompaning them, and then they must be covered head to toe, and wear a veil.
If you cannot look at a 7th century religion that is steeped in bigotry and misogeny , recognize it for what it is, and not be able to CRITISIZE it, without fear of being called a bigot, then God help us all, as our 1st Amendment Freedoms are gone.
In fact, in many countries in Europe, critisizing Muslims will land you in jail, and get you a hefty fine. Just ask Brigot Bardot, who was threatened by Frances govt. with 18 months in jail and a huge fine for critisizng Muslims.
- Yup, it's called "Islamo-phobia", and even Britain now has an official govt. agency to deal with "Islamo-phobia."
But let's ask Iranian -Amir Taheri about whether we should critisize Islam or not:
Amir Taheri: ..."Depriving Islam of critical scrutiny is bad for Islam and Muslims, and ultimately dangerous for the whole world."
"There are 57 nations in the Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC).
Not one is yet a democracy.
The more Islamic the regime in place the less democratic it is."
"We should not allow the everything-is-equal-to-everything-else fashion of postmodernist multiculturalism and political correctness to prevent us from acknowledging differences and, yes, incompatibilities, in the name of a soggy consensus.
If we are all the same how can we have a dialogue of civilizations, unless we elevate cultural schizophrenia into an existential imperative?"
Yup.
Thanks for the backup, my FRiend.
For an excellant eye opener, read "Onward Muslim Soldiers", by Robert Spencer. He's been studying Islam for over 20 years.
I get a kick out of these multli-cultural feel gooders on this thread, (E Rocc; Nuconvert; Cultural Jihad) who won't listen to anything the experts on Islam have been shouting from the rooftops for years -
IE: Ibn Warraq, Amir Taheri, Robert Spencer, etc.
-Warraq and Spencer have studied this bigoted religious cult for decades, and they say: If you think Communism was evil, then you ain't seen nothing yet, when it comes to what Islam is capable of.
Just like Communism, It IS A SOCIO-POLITICAL MOVEMENT.
Only it hides under a veil of religion.
In France alone, there are over 1200 Mosques, and EVERY damn one of them are financed by foreign governments, mostly Islamo-facists from the middle-East
Now, let's see the multi-culturalist idiots defend that.
His words
They're gonna haveta pry my crucifix from my cold, dead fingers...MUD
Women are the educators of children. To break the back of this evil Islamic-facist crap, all we need to do is continue to hammer away at the misogeny of Islam, and get Muslims to treat their women with equality, and let them live like free people, instead of cattle.
And then the Muslim women will straighten this mess out, given their freedom to do so.
"Muslims do not need patronizing liberals to meet them halfway; Muslims need to write an honest biography of the prophet that does not shun the truth, least of all cover it up with the dishonest subterfuge of condescending western scholars"
-Ibn Warraq Author of; "Why I Am Not A Muslim", "Studies on Muhammed", and the "Rise of Islam".
( Warraq is an Arab.)
They're NOT...more and more Lib'rals are terrorists...ever heard of ELF?! How 'bout Bill Clinton?!
FReegards...MUD
"seize them and put them to death wherever you find them, kill them wherever you find them, seek out the enemies of Islam relentlessly" (Sura 4:90).
-"Fight them until Islam reigns supreme" (Sura 2:193).
Muslims must make war on the infidels (unbelievers) who live around them (Sura 9:123). -
Hard to propagandize your own "prophet's" words, ain't it?
This is where we differ - I believe that if Islam didn't exist, they would have to invent something of a similar nature to justify their mysogynistic/dysfunctional societies.
I view them much the same way as drug addicts - take away one drug, and those that are predisposed towards poisoning themselves will just find another way to achieve the same end.
It's the people, not the religion. We need to have an honest assessment of the characteristics of those that have nothing better to do than tear down the walls of civilisation. Al Queda would have gotten along very well with Attila, et al.
But we probably agree on the most important point: whether Islam is a cause or effect, the West is still pretending the problem doesn't exist.
Let's put it this way: over the next 100 or so years, what's the likelihood of a nuclear bomb NOT being set off by Islamics? I'd say 0. When it happens, then we might see the West get serious.
"In blasphemy indeed are those that say Allah is Christ the Son of Mary." - Sura (chapter) 5:17 of the Koran
"They do blaspheme who say: Allah is one of three in a Trinity: for their is no god except One Allah." Sura 5:73(Sura means chapter)
Which would explain why the "Prophet" said:
"O ye who believe! Take not the Jews and the Christians for friends." - [al-Ma'idah 5:51.11]
After 40,000,000 deaths from abortion and 500,000 deaths from homosexual sodomy, the single greatest killer of Americans is moral-liberalism.
