Agree with all else you had to say except with this here. While it is certainly their free will choice to be an atheist or agnostic, and I am thinking an atheist more than likely from what has been posted...I most definitely have a problem with agnosticism and atheism.
According to the Catholic Catechism, "atheism is a sin against the virtue of religion."
Atheists in this country have done a lot of harm to religion. Madalyn Murray O'Hare taking prayer out of schools, the atheists at ACLU, etc.
Agnosticism is not much better. According to the Catechism "Agnosticism is all too often equivalent to practical atheism." I agree with that statement 100%.
"We shall break the cross and spill the wine ... God will (help) Muslims to conquer Rome ... (May) God enable us to slit their throats, and make their money and descendants the bounty of the mujahideen,"
This is the best reason for beating the snot out of every Muslim country that attempts to attack us. They need to see that everything they believe about the moon god they fight for has been a total fraud, and that piece of rock in Mecca is just a rock. There will be no taking of our land and our money and enslaving our children. They will be herding goats and camels with three eyes (think the fish at the power plant on the Simpsons) over radio-active desert for the next two hundred years.
Some enemies aren't worth loving.
Either you aren't really Catholic, or you need to learn a little more about your faith.
I think Oh Brother was referring to your use of Islam as a person or single entity. Islam hasn't done anything because it is a religion, not a person. There are some followers of Islam who have done things, but you cannot attribute an action to a religion.
I am not sure what Oh Brother meant, and I can't speak for him, but that is my understanding of his question.
The Vatican has instructed its envoys in Muslim countries to explain Pope Benedict's words on Islam.
Benedict's new Secretary of State, Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone, said the Holy See's nuncios (ambassadors) in Muslim countries would be visiting government and religious leaders.

A better plan would be to get them the heck out of the Mohammedan countries. I fear for all Christians and Jews in such places.
Pope Julius II was known as the "Warrior Pope". Maybe Pope Benedict will be the next one.

I hope so. A FReeper who call himself LiberalBassTurds said on another thread:
If they hated Crusades v.1 they will really detest v.2.
Someone had to have the courage to remind the cult of islamofascists from whence they came. Islam began as a cult. At it's onset it's only members were mo/muhammed, his wives and children. Mo/muhammed was not a learned man and could not read nor write. Still, eventually others began to follow is cult and became members. ( I am reminded of David Korish and that Haley's Comet group.) Regardless, he did learn how to form gangs to kill his enemies as he learned to rule by the sword.
I salute Pope Benedict for having the courage to remind folks from whence islam came. Shame on all the other civilized world leaders for not having the courage to do the same.
Islam is not a religion of peace. Islam is cult of gang mentality perpetrating murder and chaos around the globe.
And has been doing the same since it's onset.
call = calls

Ok, thank you. But................
See post #72:
Islam is not a religion, it is a death cult.
That pretty much says it all.
Kind of explains their seventh century life styles as well. No time for developing science, commerce, or medical innovation when your day is basically spent wailing in the street. For 13 centuries...
Mohammad was a demon possessed pedophile. No more, no less.

Great link!
Whew!
They might have been really one person pretending to be two. People who spend their lives hating God who they say doesn't exist lead miserable, lonely lives, and at death they will be insane with terror.
Very sad.
