The American solution to this dilemma is to acknowledge religion as a principal source of moral goodness, while recognizing the danger of religious sectarianism only and precisely insofar as it appears in the form of actions which are immoral regardless of motive. The ruthless destruction of innocent human life, however it may cloak itself in a false language of theology or religiosity, is always and everywhere evil because it is the most manifest repudiation possible of the principle of human equality. This is one reason our founders listed life first among the rights with which our Creator endowed us.

Bump

I get asked all the time: “How do I get on this bump list?” Well the answer is you can’t! The FreeRepublic Master Bump List is not a list of people who get notified about a topic appearing on FreeRepublic but it is a list of topics that you can click on and have posts relevant to those topics displayed to you. There are many topics like “WOD_list” (War On Drugs) or “Homeschool_list” (Stories that Homeschoolers may be interested in) or “Homosexual Agenda” (A list of articles related to that topic). And they all appear on the The FreeRepublic Bump List

When you are reading an article you can add it to the list by posting a reply to that topic and in the “TO” box put the name of the list you want it to appear on preceded by an “*”. For example if you want the article to appear on the War on Drugs list then put “*WOD_list” in the “TO:” box instead of someones screen name. You can also put it on several lists by separating the list names with a simi-colon “;”. Then when you want to see the list go to The FreeRepublic Master Bump List and click on the link for that list.

He would be a good one to head the RNC instead of Gilmore.
If he can't be president, then he should help make them, and make our party bigger, better and stronger.

Allan finnally screws up. It must be intentional because I'm sure he knows better.

We are seeking to destroy an association of men who have taken violent, evil action against the innocent in our country

Why did they take 'evil' action? Because we don't submit and pay homage to Islam. You've got to consider, these terrorists are defacto theologians.

On one side, people are taugh to 'love your neighbor' and 'thou shall not kill'. The Islam message that comes through to the 'fanatics' is, 'despise your neighbor' and 'kill if you can', and Islam is rallying around these 'fanatics'.

IMO, this war won't be over until the Koran is 'rewritten'.

The war against terrorism is not a war against Islam. It is not a war against an extreme and fanatical interpretation of Islam. We are not fighting, and must never fight, a religious war.

Keep repeating Dr. Keyes! Take a drive around Potomac and keep repeating!

Is Alan this naive regarding Islam?

He should read Belloc on the Islamic heresy, available on-line at EWTN.

It still amazes (and infuriates) me that in this feminized, PC-polluted culture we live in, we have to justify retaliation for the mass murder of 5,000 Americans on our own soil..

Wow. A Keyes article I agree with 75%. That's 75% more than usual.

On the flip side, can he write 500 words without alluding to abortion? Keyes is a good enough writer, he understands the need for focus and clarity. More likely his digressions are calculated raw meat for the pack.

Ecclesiastes

3:1 To every [thing there is] a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:

3:2 A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up [that which is] planted;

3:3 A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;

3:4 A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;

3:5 A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;

3:6 A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;

3:7 A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;

3:8 A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.
