MINNEAPOLIS -- Six Muslim imams on Monday were removed from a US Airways flight at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport and questioned by police for several hours before being released, a leader of the group said.

The six were among passengers who boarded Flight 300, bound for Phoenix, around 6:30 p.m., airport spokesman Pat Hogan said.

A passenger initially raised concerns about the group through a note passed to a flight attendant, according to Andrea Rader, a spokeswoman for US Airways. She said police were called after the captain and airport security workers asked the men to leave the plane and the men refused.

Another law we have says innocent until proven guilty. Another says the burden of proof is on the prosecution. This has not even gone to court and you have determined that this could only be caused by discrimination.

I have stated there are laws on the books against discrimination. Only you would know how this became interpreted as a singular cause.

The airline has a right to ask them to leave, that does not mean the airline asked them to leave because the airline or the passengers were discriminating. Changing seats is one of those acts and airlines have assigned seats in case of a disaster. They set that policy long ago for everyone.

Given the fact that I was asked to change seats on my last three flights (twice with a flight attendant standing next to the people asking) I can say that this policy, while important, is not strictly enforced.

My copy is written in fairly clear English.

Then you should read the whole thing, not just the passages quoted at www.prophetofdoom.net and other idiotic "theology" websites.

"Catholic" with a capital "C" is generally recognized as referring to the Roman Catholic Church, which is hardly the universal Church of all Christians.

And "Allah" is the Arabic word for "God" which is universally recognized as the Lord of Heaven and Earth known by Adam and Abraham and Moses and Elijah and Jesus.

841 is a child of Vatican II - LG 16 specifically. It is part and parcel with the ecumenical liberalism that Vatican II wrought. It is unsound and it is wrong.

"we believe in one God, albeit in a different manner."

-Pope Gregory VII on relations between Christians and Muslims, 1076 AD

It's funny you equate loyalty to country with a monarchy.

It's funny that you hold a (fellow) subject of Queen Elizabeth II to be an enlightened thinker on the subject of political freedom.

The only alternative to those two options is bloodshed on a massive scale. I'd rather that didn't happen. You're working hard to ensure it does.

You're trying to ignite a religious war, just as the Christian Identity movement struggled for their "Rahowa" a decade ago.

Islam must be ridiculed. It must be lampooned. It must be made so terribly "uncool" that no one wishes to be associated with it.

So you do want to rid the world of Islam, although that you would "rather" that it didn't require massive bloodshed puts you in the least genocidal 1% of the Nuke Mecca Crowd.

ROTFLMAO! Liberals have an interesting view of themselves....

That's true. But even more interesting are the religious bigots who pose as conservatives.
