Preverted selfish people NEVER want what is ultimately good. They get tricked into believing half truths.
Those who would not want Jesus as Lord of their lives or aleast follow his precepts are incapable of knowing the Truth.
Yawn
There are also Catholics that do not adhere to the tenents of Catholicism.
Any Muslim that entertains thoughts of living peacefully with "infidels" is not following the Quran and Moe Hammed's teachings, and therefore is not a practicing Muslim. They too should guard their heads jelously, as they are slated for separation of head and body by the true believers.
As far as Conyers goes, he is but another Democrat enemy of America, masquerading as a human being and elected by people unworthy to vote.
(Denny Crane: "Sometimes you can only look for answers from God and failing that... and Fox News".)
Piss Christ is art, but flushing the Koran is a hate crime.
islam is oppression, slavery and death.
Conyers is just playing to his Muslim constituency in Detroit and Dearborn. I'm surprised he hasn't converted yet.
"the Quran is the holy book for Muslims who recite passages from it in prayer and learn valuable lessons about peace, humanity and spirituality.",and the requirements of murder, and cutting off non-muzlim heads, feet and fingers...As well as rape, stealing, deceit, lying and cheating...
Now there's my kind of religion, NOT...However, it must appeal to Conyers and the rest of the American muzlims...
well goodie for him....
I don't support a theocracy in any form....
There, that is more like it. Christians are the ones who need protection from the likes of Conyers these days it seems to me.
Under Roe, science be damned and liberals adhere to what I call the Poof Theory as to the beginning of human life. Instead of accepting the science that a unique human individual is formed at fertilization, liberals adhere to the notion that human life begins, POOF!!, when, well, when its mother says it begins and not before.
Under this theory, even if a mother has already declared POOF, she can still declare UNPOOF at any time. This could be five days after fertilization or five minutes before birth. Hell, she can even UNPOOF halfway through birth if she wants to.
Yes, liberals have religion.
*****So why, exactly, should we pay our representatives to waste their time voting on it? *****
Why are we paying Conyers anyway, He is about as useless as Teats on a Boar Hog.
I wonder if she can go near ground-zero.
Hyperventilate over a bound collection of printed pages. Something is twisted here.
You forgot to include all the anti-America socialists in the area, too!
>>>Conyers is just playing to his Muslim constituency in Detroit and Dearborn
DING DING DING
You win !!!
-"the Quran is the holy book for Muslims who recite passages from it in prayer and learn valuable lessons about peace, humanity and spirituality."-
I'd say the prisoners in Guantanamo haven't been learnin' much, except how to take advantage of yellow-bellied politicians.
Based on their own actions, and particularly on the unwillingness of those who practice Islam in the US and Europe to mount any meaningful protest of the violent practices of some of their co-religionists, I must conclude there is something distinctly not peaceful about Islam.
This issue would be easy enough to for them to solve- where are the million-member peace marches? Where are the hunger strikes and "teach-ins", where are the collection of shoes to remind us of each victim, or people who insist on readnig the name of each vicitm?
Our media has been full of images of the various ways people in the west have protested violence. There is a distinct lack images of those who insist Islam is a "religion of peace" is indeed peacefully oriented in any protests.
Instead of peace, we have followers of the "religion of peace" who get killed during protests over the handling of their "holy book", and yet not a word of protest is reported anywhere over the deaths suffered in the bombing of a mosque. It appears it is just fine for members of this peaceful religion to kill each other but no non-believer had better disrespect their book, or look out!
Islamists in this country and in the rest of the West give the impression they are like the Methodist or Episcopalian who cannot quite bring themselves to fully practice what their religion really teaches.
What does it mean for the West if Sayyid Qutb is right about Islam, that what we now call "radical" is the ideal? That jihad is not a metaphor for the battles of life, but for the real war against unbelievers that every believer must wage, or risk not being able to enjoy life in Paradise. That their god is sovereign and it is their duty to force everyone else to worship him (or it) only in the exact manner they say is correct.
There is something really wrong here. The way things are going, we are headed for a gigantic clash of cultures at some point in the future. And it is clear it won't be peaceful when it happens.

You mislead yourself. I don't know whether you do it intentionally to satisfy some dogma or if you do it to mislead others.
Here is what you are not considering. An infidel is a unbeliever. Jews and Christians worship the exact same God as the Muslims, the God of Abraham. Therefore, Jews and Christians are not infidels. Most Muslims consider Jews and Christians as a bit misguided perhaps, but not in need of conversion.
Source?
"[yes the Jews and Muslims are both descendents of Abraham, but here is the attitude towards descendants of Abraham through Isaac (the Jews]: "If they find you, they will be your enemies, and will stretch forth towards you their hands and their tongues with evil, and they ardently desire that you may disbelieve. Your relationship would not profit you, nor your children, on the day of resurrection; He will decide between you; and Allah sees what you do. Indeed, there is for you a good example in Abraham and those with him when they said to their people: Surely we are clear of you and of what you serve besides Allah; WE DECLARE OURSELVES TO BE CLEAR OF YOU, AND ENMITY AND HATRED HAVE APPEARED BETWEEN US AND YOU FOREVER UNTIL YOU BELIEVE IN ALLAH ALONE (60:2-4)"
