September 15, 2001 -- Boxing legend Muhammad Ali, in "anguish" over the horrific terror attacks, says that if the mass killers are fellow Muslims, they're a disgrace to his religion.

"These radicals are doing things that God is against," the 59-year-old Ali said in a statement written after the destruction of the World Trade Center.

Just a reminder to my fellow Christians. All Christians were once non-Christians. Your mission as a Christian is to preach the Gospel. In doing so, you will save more souls with a message of Christ's love than with one of condemnation of others for not being Christian already.

If, in the process of spreading the Gospel, some of your audience tries to kill you, then have at them.

Jewry should not complain if its anti-German activities, which have no counterpart in any other country, call forth from the people the defensive reaction of anti-Semitism.

Sound familiar? http://www.calvin.edu/academic/cas/gpa/arier.htm

Your ignorance of Islam is truly astounding. Do know that the only way Chritians and Jews are allowed to survive is as second class citizens, unable to testify against Moslems or anyone else in a court of law, having to pay special taxes for the privilege of breathing. No Muslim can be put to death for killing a Chritian, but Chritians may be killed on the spot for "blapheming" against Mohammed. The Koran basically says that we are Sub Humans....... In the future, please know what you're talking about before spewing your PC Crap!

Add to this, which group began the slave trade in Africa? Who gets blamed for it in its entirety? The buyers. Akin to drug pushers getting a free ride while the users get locked up. Ironic that in Durban the descendants of the slave "pushers" were joining the reparations crowd to force the "shakedown" of the users.

Thank you for uncovering this. Yes, these words sound eerily similar to what many are saying.

The ignorance of Falwell and Robertson was in the way they said what they said, not in the ultimate content of what they said. The crux of their argument is inarguable, but the way they presented it , laid it ripe to be picked apart and hung out to dry, to villify them.

Havoc you sir have a serious case of amnesia do you think you can just deny your past history on this forum to someone you think is a newbie and the rest of us won't notice. For your information diva isn't a newbie, she's my mom and she was the one who introduced me to freerepublic years ago. Going through your posts it becomes obvious pretty quickly that you go into anti-Catholic threads and normal Catholic... just threads in general relating to Catholicism and start attacking our beliefs. When requested to show evidence or referrences for your arguments you either don't or just change the subject which, if you have been in freerepublic long will note as the actions of a disrupter.

If you will truely defend my Constitutional right to worship as I see fit how about you say so, right now. Say I can be a Catholic if want to.

When I comtemplate the lives of the two boxers who fought the classic bout in Zaire, "The Rumble in the Jungle", I can't help but come to the conclusion that the man who lost in the ring, George Foreman, eventually became the true winner of the bout. As a result of soul searching he became a born-again Christian and a delightful media personality.

The only ethnic cleansing going on here is Muslim cleansing of Jews and Christians. How much more terror can you take? Who cares, all I know is I'm fed up. If there are cells here, root them out before they hit the Sears Tower. I'm sure YOUR BRAND of Christianity is oh so wholesome, but I believe in Christendom, a concept you've probably forgotten with your venom, after all, I speak out against the Muslim who will kill you, You speak out against the Christians who defend you. It's easy to call an anonymous person a nazi, but I personally belive that you fall closer to the mark than I ever copuld. If we ever meet, we can compare skin and stories, I'm sure you more closely resemble Hitler than I ever could.

Boy are you guys Hooked-On-Hitler lol. Some punk pipes up and suddenly he's a Aryan Barbarian. What a bunch of no-minds; you see Hitler everywhere...look there he is! lol. Meanwhile, our people have been blown up and fallen 1000 feet to their deaths. What have you done but defend the guilty and stroke yourselves? Now we face a war, are you ready to do what it takes, to win? I think not.

Oh, you just be patient. Guys like Muhummad Ali will speak from their heart. We'll probably hear from Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Hakim Olajuwon before much longer. At least I hope so.

It'll only take a couple of months for the Hollywood crowd to decide which side they're going to be on and how to re-invent themselves into the kind of people they want to be NOW. It's just a matter of how best for them to cash in.

Pelayo, Do you have any shame at all? And do you know the rules of these forums - isn't there some rule about thread jumping and personal attacks?

And when have I EVER denied anyone the right to practice ANY religion or hold ANY belief. Name it. I'm giving you an hour. If you haven't produced it, then you need to explain to me why I shouldn't hit the abuse button. This is beyond disgusting. I disagree with your religious beliefs so you attack me, call me names.. Anyone think this sounds familiar? Pelayo, are you going to crash a plane into my home now? Shake it off and open your eyes. Then apologize to these kind people if you don't mind. What you are doing is wrong. It's an affront to me and to the others in this forum.

For further see your freep mail. I'm not through and this forum is not the place for this!

'Jewry should not complain if its anti-German activities, which have no counterpart in any other country, call forth from the people the defensive reaction of anti-Semitism.'

Considering the fact that I'd die to protect Israel, yeah, you are full of venom and hate calling me a nazi. NEVER AGAIN NEVER AGAIN NEVER AGAIN, if I have to take care of the whole Muslim (or German) world without your 'love'- NEVER AGAIN NEVER AGAIN! I'll never let YOU push ME into an oven! NEVER AGAIN!

"Muslims do not view politics and military separately from religion."

Neither do I, and I'm Christian. Unfortunately for our country, most have been brainwashed and do "separate." That's why we've brought shame, perversion, and evil into the temple, God's temple. I don't think He likes that...

I've just read some parts of the Koran in light of this attack, and jihad is a bit more complicated than this, though there seem to be some valid reasons to think Muhammed and his original Muslim followers relied on violence and violent threats against Christians and Jews, not to mention other people. Islam, of course, presents an erroneous, immoral worldview, which, I think, can lead to such things as an Osama and the Palestinian Intifada. But, we have more to fear from the political and religious left and the national news media in this world, not to mention our public schools, than we do from the average American Muslim or American of Arabic and Persian descent.
