Sat. night I was clicking around and alighted on the nth replay of an MSNBC program on Rikers Island. They have a special unit for new mothers. Ministering to these women as chaplain was a muslim woman and I couldn't help wonder why. Islam is still a small religious minority in this country so how is it that this woman came to be the person seeing after the spiritual needs of these women? Was she the single person to seek the office? Did no others care? No baptists, catholics or methodists?
I do know that there have been a number of muslim chaplains who have gotten up to no good in our prisons & in the military.
Just a musing.

almost all of the muslim chaplains in american prison cells (and our military for that matter) are Wahabbi. They are recruiting an army right under our noses. We have at least a few million disgruntled prisoners in our midst. Mosques are going up at record pace in Mexico and Canada. Once built, they are considered part of the Holy Land and should be defended. They are also great places to launch attacks into the United States. There were twice as many Lebanese with Canadian passports as there were with American passports. We are all sitting here with our heads in the sand on this one fighting about Hillary this and Bush that when we should be figuring out a sensible way to sort the good ones from the bad ones. Step one is even admitting that a problem exists....
