To bad any “moderate Muslim” who believes 1 - 7 is an apostate and subject to be killed by “good Muslims”.

Is that fair to all the good and decent Muslims out there?

Is there such an animal?

When I see a Muzzie condemning their radical religious nuts I give that person the benefit of the doubt.

Until that day, I learned all I need to know about "one of this world's great religion" on 9/11.

Opposes terrorist attacks on civilians the world over.

There are no civilians in this kind of war. Weasel words come from weasels.

And #8? A sane muslim realizes he has no place in the civilized world and that he should just stay in some stone aged cave where he belongs.

Also, this statement?

That same sort of fanaticism has largely died out in Christianity

Just because somebody calls themselves Christian, or defends some abomination in the name of Christianity, doesn't make it so.

The Crusades were not Christian. Westboro Baptist is not Christian. Mormons are not Christian.

Satan couldn't destroy Christianity by attacking it. So what he did was to flood the world with counterfeits. That was his masterpiece.

I can call my truck a jet plane, but it still won't fly.

Muslims are like Ivy. As long as it’s trimmed back it’s fine, but when it starts growing up under the roof and starts growing iunto the siding it has to be cut back drastically.

For years Musims lived in comparative piece, then their numbers grew and they started their Jihads and their BS.

They need drastic trimming.

Two major points this author fails to understand.

1. The Crusades were NOT equivalent to Muslim violence. The Crusades were basically DEFENSIVE. They were an attempt to protect the Holy Lands and Christian countries against the violent onslaught of Muslim conquerors. As with most wars, there were some departures from this basically just purpose. But the real failure of the Crusades was to end them too soon, and let the Muslims overrun, conquer, murder and enslave Christians throughout the Middle East and North Africa.

2. There’s no such thing as a moderate Muslim, because Allah, Mohammed, and the Koran DEMAND that Muslims conquer and enslave the entire world and everyone in it. That’s just as true now as it was then.

Jesus didn’t go running around with a sword, cutting off heads, raping women, and enslaving people. Mohammed did. That’s what his religion is all about, if you bother to read the Koran and the basic teachings.

Islam means “submission.” Submit or die.

It would be too bad, IF there were any ‘moderate’ Muslims.

To take a book such as the Quran or whatever the hell they call it and believe ANY of it and then to, in the same breath, profess disdain for the other perverted, demonic and oppressive parts is suspension of all belief in truth.

Their god gives them license to lie, dissemble and manipulate, all for the sake of furthering their perverted religion. Why would anyone in their right mind think anyone who professes to be a “moderate” muslim tells the truth?

Were it the truth, we would have seen a world wide condemnation replete with massive demonstrations about the events of 9/11, or any of the other Islamic terrorist actions since then, including Boston.

It is fantasy to believe they exist, it is fantasy to not believe in their heart-of-hearts they secretly wish Islam covered the world.

There have been some, what I’d call scholarly studies, about that very thing....about “at what levels does Islamic infestation become trouble?”....works I’ve seen put it at a couple of levels: 1-2% disruption of societal norms, 5% or more absolute chaos.

A moderate Muslim is a Muslim at room temperature.

A radical muslim will saw your head off for a YouTube video. A moderate Muslim will simply watch.

Mormons are not Christian.

That is the most ignorant stupid remark and proves you know nothing about Mormons. Dunce! No excuse.

"the vast majority of Muslims are not radicals and probably like Jihadism even less than we do"

That is yet to be definitively established, and, in actuality, defies the reality of everything we know.

I know everything about mormons. Doctrine of Blood Atonement. Mountain Meadows Massacre. Temple ceremonies. Baptism for the dead.

It's you who are abysmally stupid. Your satanic cult is being exposed for what it is.

Moslems are violent and radical only insofar as they are believers in Islam and the Koran.

Secretly? They are pretty open about it. It is a secret only in that westerners refuse to hear or to understand.
