Jews weren't doing any of that in Nazi Germany, either. Look at what happened.

If you're against the Nazis, how can you be for the Muslims? They're very much the same, totalitarian and Jew-hating. I see many similarities but Hitler didn't call his plans a religion. Muslims killed over a million non-Muslims in Sudan but it's fine because they're doing for religious reasons.

He has the right.If people don't like it, don't read the sign.

I don't disagree with you.

That's what it's coming to.

Isn't it amazing how some people get all worked up over the words of Jesus and at the same time ignore the vile hateful things found in every Koran and taught to the followers of Mohammed?

That little pissant mayor ought to be recalled from office in disgrace IMHO for trying to dictate to a Christian church what they can preach and teach to their congregation.

Next the week the sign will say, "The spirit of Judaism is the spirit of the antichrist."

The following week, it will say, "The spirit of Hinduism is the spirit of the antichrist."

The week after that, you will be treated to, "The spirit of Buddism is the spirit of the antichrist.

They already have said so: see erizona's post #9. Hatrid always begins with something small and, cancerous as it is, end up eating the whole body --- and soul.

The actions of the Islamic fanatics and the Christian fanatics as expressed in your post illustrates why more people have died in the name of religion than for any other reason. Ironic, isn't it?

So what?

Go ask a Jew, he will tell you that I am going to hell because they are the chosen people.. The buddists and hindu's will probably have something similar to say.

If they want to put a sign in their yard stating "Jhoffa_ is going to hell because he does not believe as I do.."

Why should I lost sleep over it?

Heck, if they dissagree with me, it's just a simple dissagreement, no crusades or cross burnings needed.

The Constitution gives us all enough wiggle room to get along fine here. And if they want to say it, it's tough stuff for me because their speech is Protected by the First Amendment.

So, now.. What was the problem again?

This guy can't say whatever he wants--in fact, it's better that he do so, so that other people will understand what kind of "Church" it is that he's running there--but others are also free to say he's a bigot and an *asshole.

Maybe one should be more delicate in formulations especially in a Muslim country where a harsh statement against Islam can end in death. Still the Muhammad is a type of Antichrist since he was preaching banditry and was severely misrepresenting the Christian doctrine (he claimed that his teaching contains Jewish and Christian religion). His followers are deluded in thinking that they know Christ and Moses but they do not. They confuse mindless submission and coercion with the Divine Law, sensuality with a joy of salvation and violence with the Gospel. This is the spirit of Antichrist.

Here's a little revelation for you.

bin Laden is the latest incarnation of the Evil that was Hitler, The Hate-preaching Imams (including the American born leaders of the so-called "Nation of Islam") are his "Dr. Goebbels", and we non-Mohammadins are all his "Jews".

Do you understand now?

Try to think of this preacher is like a German Rabbi, that dared speak the truth in Nazi Germany in the '30s.

Shall we all wait patiently for the trains with the Crescent and Star on the boxcars, before we summon the courage to call a spade a spade?

Can you prove that statement?

Ironic is that the people in the WTC, the plane in PA, and the Pentagon were killed by Islamic fanatics. These people got up, probably did not give one thought to bin Laden or to Islam, and, yet, died became a jihad was declared upon them (unbeknown to them)! Ironic!

"It is inappropriate. It doesn´t reflect the community, and it sure doesn´t reflect myself or my council," Mayor Steve Rhodes said, adding that the city has received numerous complaints.

It doesn't reflect the feelings of the "Hate America First" left-wing liberal scum. More and more, people are realizing that islam is a violent gutter religion founded by a psychopathic career criminal.

How about freedom of religion?
I am pretty sure this falls under that.

2 Th 2:8* And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:
2 Th 2:9* Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,
2 Th 2:10* And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
2 Th 2:11* And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
2 Th 2:12* That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

Re 16:14* For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.

Christians are not calling for the destruction of Islam, just revealing
its nature, so that you might not be decieved.

Prince Bandar bin Sultan, Saudi ambassador to the United States said on 60 minutes that Moslems don't call themselves "Wahabbis." That they just call themselves good Moslems, and that Wahabbism is just "back to basics Islam."

Mohammed Kureishi: "Islam is fundamentally opposed to democracy. Democracy is law by the people, of the people, for the people. No. We want the law by Allah, for the people. It's man-made law versus divine law. You can't have both."

Firstly, this is the opinion of one Mohammed Kureishi who speaks about Islam with the same cavalier ease as the above-mentioned pastor about (anti-)Christianity.

Secondly, most Christians and Jews in the West, too, have a problem when a man-made law contradicts the divine. We call it immoral.

And, thirdly, this is why WE separate the Church and state.

"Message to Mayor - they will come for you too! Which is why we should kill them first.
But not because they believe in Islam --- because of what they do in the name of Islam.

It is pretty scary how many people on this thread, who themselves are clearly non-PC and value freedom, prefer to blur the distinction between "believe" and "do" --- the distinction so fundamental to what makes America work, and what makes it so beautiful.
