“Taqiyya is the Islamic doctrine that Muslims are permitted to lie in order to fend off and neutralising any criticism of Islam or Muslims.
“Lying and cheating in the Arab world is not really a moral matter but a method of safeguarding honor and status, avoiding shame, and at all times exploiting possibilities, for those with the wits for it, deftly and expeditiously to convert shame into honor on their own account and vice versa for their opponents.
“If honor so demands, lies and cheating may become absolute imperatives.”
—[David Pryce-Jones, New York: Harper & Row, 1989, “The Closed Circle” An Interpretation of the Arabs, pg. 4].
“No dishonor attaches to such primary transactions as selling short weight, deceiving anyone about quality, quantity or kind of goods, cheating at gambling, and bearing false witness.
“The doer of these things is merely quicker off the mark than the next fellow; owing him nothing, he is not to be blamed for taking what he can.” [pg. 38].
That said, it's simply appalling that these allegedly Christian schools are honoring the abortionists like this.
David Pryce-Jones is awesome. I heard him on a discussion with some scholarly conservatives and the guy was off the charts. He knows his stuff and says Islam is really more about Arab conquest than religion.
How convenient for them.
Hope they aren't too surprised if I respond in kind.
What does the Left use to jusify their lying? Or is it that they live in an alternate reality?
