The thought comes to mind: Dishing it out, but not being able to take it.

Expose the 'prophet' - kill islam! There's a link to THE LIFE OF MUHAMMAD on my bio page, the book was written by Edward, Canon Sell, a Fellow of the Univertsity of Madras, published in 1913, complete with arabic and greek sources in the footnotes.

This is very good news. Apparently every person named George Bush through the ages is a good man.

Surely the current President Bush will have to make restitution to all Muslims offended by the book written by a man he did not even know.

Interesting, especially the comparison to locusts.

Here's a religious tract by George Bush I found in an old books archive, wonder if it's the same author. If so, he had drifted off course. I had a fascination with Emanuel Swedenborg when I was younger, but have since dismissed him as being an occultist.

I can't find a copy available of the book on the life of Mohamed.

"No place: [1848?]. 8vo. 32 pp. George Bush, a prominent biblical scholar, preacher, and controversialist, here provides insight into Swedenborgian religious views. In the early 1840's Bush became a chief exponent of the doctrines of Emanuel Swedenborg and joined the New Jerusalem Church in 1845. He wrote a large number of tracts, including the "Statement of reasons for believing the doctrines and disclosures of Emanuel Swedenborg," first published in 1846, and "Mesmer and Swedenborg," published in 1847"

This makes it all sound like a Hatfields vs. McCoys thing...which is about the level that things in that area of the world are on.

"As a cultural institution, our role is to engage in a religious dialogue, debating such publications, rather than just banning them."

Kind of says it all, doesn't it?

Great post Cornpone!

"...elsewhere, he writes that Mohamed was "decidedly the most successful impostor that ever lived."

The prophet of Satan...the great impostor!

" ...He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. Whenever he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own [nature;] for he is a liar, and the father of lies." John 8:44

Sounds like Mohamed to me!

"...permitting the distribution of such books goes against values enshrined in the constitution like respecting religion,and would only drive a wedge between Muslims and Christians."

HELLO!!! Flying airplanes into buildings and murdering 3,000 innocent people is what drove a wedge between Christians and Muslims!

I will NEVER forget seeing these followers of Mohamed dance in the street and celebrate the death of innocent lives!

Islam destroys ALL that it touches!

As horrifying as it is, thank you for posting that photo. We all need to be reminded every now and then why we are fighting. The liberals and all others whose minds stopped on September 10, 2001 need to have that photo in front of them at all times until the light bulbs above their heads switch on.

I also remember the scenes of people on the West Bank dancing in the streets, and I will take those scenes with me to my grave.
