During a panel discussion sponsored by the Hudson Institute last January, retired Army Lt. Colonel Allen West, who did combat duty in Iraq, responded to a Marine who asked the question, how do you answer people who say that terrorists are following a "warped" version of Islam?

Islam is a theocracy. A theocracy based on submission to Islamicists.

This is just stupid. Islam has been a religion for about 1400 years.

The people who are trying to make these arguments are pointing a gun at Christianity. All their claims will only be used against Christianity.

Well, Islam is as much of a religion as Satanism, Luciferianism, Kali worship, and Baal worship.

Yeah, and baseball’s not a game. It’s a sport.

And my Chevy isn’t a car, it’s a vehicle.

And New York isn’t a city, it’s five boroughs.

And Massachusetts isn’t a state, it’s a commonwealth.

And this post doesn’t belong in “news/activism”.

And you got the headline wrong.

Religions are supposed to be spiritual and otherwordly.

Islam merely imitates those qualities at best. At it’s core, Islam is about worldly power and domination over all human life. No wonder the leftists respect them so much...

Came across an article, academically dry but on point, about the pagan cult of Islam. Here’s an excerpt:

The pagan Arabs worshipped the Moon-god Allah by praying toward Mecca several times a day; making a pilgrimage to Mecca; running around the temple of the Moon-god called the Kabah; kissing the black stone; killing an animal in sacrifice to the Moon-god; throwing stones at the devil; fasting for the month which begins and ends with the crescent moon; giving alms to the poor, etc.

The Muslim’s claim that Allah is the God of the Bible and that Islam arose from the religion of the prophets and apostles is refuted by solid, overwhelming archeological evidence. Islam is nothing more than a revival of the ancient Moon-god cult. It has taken the symbols, the rites, the ceremonies, and even the name of its god from the ancient pagan religion of the Moon-god. As such, it is sheer idolatry and must be rejected by all those who follow the Torah and Gospel.

The fact that this wonderful American is NOT so widely known across our land shows how racist the media is.

Yes racist. Because if this intelligent, well-spoken, impassioned American WAS NOT, “African-American”, the media would have tried to make him an American household name, to denounce his opinions.

But, if they tried to do that, in his case, one of the American demographics held hostage to Marxist & Liberal political theology, the “African American” community, would know that there was brilliant alternative voices to the media’s anointed messiah, that THEY could look up to, and their game would be threatened.

Well, than I say it’s about time to stop the insanity. Almost every Country/city in the world that is now Muslim was once Christian. And, it became Muslim by the sword.

Biblebelievers is an old and well-known christian-identity site, basically in the same box as the Klan or Nazis, and intensely antisemitic. I’ve raised this flag before. I think it should go on the no-publish list, along with Stormfront.

Remarkably ignorant stab at Allen West. Islam is exactly what he explains, and their scripture locked that down from day one. It cannot change.

Luckily *your* scripture is no longer locking down Christianity, or you’d still be burning uppity females. I suppose that was sort of easier than stoning.

But for all the evolution of the Christians, we still see some of them pandering to the filth of the mohammedans.

Thanks. I found it via thereligionofpeace.com and thought it valid since the religionofpeace.com is a decent website. Will know better now.

Some of these places you have to have a good look at before you get to the meat. All kinds of fluff to draw you in :).

Definitely. Some web sites or blogs post any article that supports their ideals or goals, regardless of source’s credibility.

What should have been a red flag to me, but I ignored it, was when I clicked to the article linked on thereligionofpeace.com, it went to the site with the article and the article was in an academic theoretical type set-up with the address at the http:. No side bars to click to home page of the http: addressee. Plus thereligionofpeace.com site credited Yeshua, whatever that is, as the original source, yet a click took it to the bible believers http.

I e-mailed thereligionofpeace.com and told them. We’ll see what they do, if they don’t pull the article off their web site then their credibility is damaged. Islam is a cult but to use other facist articles against Islamo-facism is not credible.

And since I am not familiar with christian identity groups or their ilk I naively accepted the site given its original reference. Will have to do more investigation next time.
