ISLAM MAY HAVE A POINT!
vanity | 2/1/2010 | A Navy Vet

Posted on 02/01/2010 1:06:22 AM PST by A Navy Vet

After reading some more Koran tonight, I had an epiphany.
I realized that some of the worst parts of the Koran were similar to worst parts of the Christian Bible. I now believe many parts of both were misinterpreted.

While I realize that Islam has been violent throughout its history, so has Judeism and Christianity (think Crusades).

I'm not sure I believe in the 72 virgin promise, but I am starting to get Mohammed's believe in a better after-life. I need to read more.

That said, our world has gone to shit. There can be a better place for those who believe.

Yes, I know I've been promoting the opportunity and potential of our original Founding Fathers' intent for years, but they were also persons of faith. I don't know what happened...call it a vision...call it a dream...call it what you like.

This is tough stuff for me. But when you have a "vision" of Abraham, Moses, Jesus, and Mohammed, where do you go?

The last prophet was Mohammed. Yes, I know of his trangressions, the same as others. But his writing are starting to make sense.

"...I don't get to talk of my beliefs?..."

Sure you do.

However I do not think that 'talk of your beliefs' means what you think it means.

A cask by losing centre-piece or cant
Was never shattered so, as I saw one
Rent from the chin to where one breaketh wind.

Between his legs were hanging down his entrails;
His heart was visible, and the dismal sack
That maketh excrement of what is eaten.

While I was all absorbed in seeing him,
He looked at me, and opened with his hands
His bosom, saying: “See now how I rend me;

How mutilated, see, is Mahomet;
In front of me doth Ali weeping go,
Cleft in the face from forelock unto chin;

And all the others whom thou here beholdest,
Disseminators of scandal and of schism
While living were, and therefore are cleft thus.

A devil is behind here, who doth cleave us
Thus cruelly, unto the falchion’s edge
Putting again each one of all this ream,

When we have gone around the doleful road;
By reason that our wounds are closed again
Ere any one in front of him repass.

- Dante’s Inferno, Canto 28

Son, son-in-law, nephew...not really sure.

"What a bunch of garbage."

Why is this garbage? Because I espouse something you don't believe? Is that fair? Is that what conservatives believe (I am)? Others have no right to their spiritual beliefs?

Writing in English is not natural for you. Peddle your goods elsewhere.

So why did you post this in News/Activism? Why not over on the Religion forum, where all the rest of us espouse our beliefs?

And the point is atop Mad Moe’s pointy head.

A religion of peace, it ain’t.

God/Allah is Our Shining Light.

I am pretty sure there are thousands of Muslims who would chop your head off for referring to their Allah as "God/Allah".

You better be careful what you say when you meet them on the latest summoned Jihad.

Forget the sunscreen, bring the barbecue sauce. Five bucks says you and your "light" are going to roast.

Islam is an easy religion. It doesn't demand that much of you. I can see why men might want to become Muslim: Islam: a religion for no-character pussies.

Islam is the last bastion of barbarism. I too have read the koran. It is full of rape and violence and its not comparable to the Bible.

There is a very good saying, its old but still true:
Everything I needed to know about islam, I learned on 9-11.If the koran is starting to make sense to you than you are starting to be a threat to the civilized people around you. Understand, wise people take note of the muslims around them

Your about 58,59 years old...veteran too...hummmmm...

Well, you’re way old enough to determine if Islam is worth the sacrifice of your honorable history as a Vet....

and the “years you worked your butt off” to pull yourself out of the gutter...and did just that.

Friends family...you’ll be sacrifing them too...hummm that’s your life, alot to put at the feet of a pagan moon God.

What a shame ...what a loss...
