A while ago I engaged a prolific poster who is muslim. It took an exchange of @ a dozen questions before he stated that allah is his first loyalty in all things.

Which comes first for you...God, or America?

America was way down his list. When I asked what that meant if a clear war between islam and America evolved.

If a clear war between America and Christianity evolved--and it's frightening plausible prospect, what with gay marriage and all that silliness...well, a lot of folks on FR might decide to fight for Christianity and against "America."

His answer..."I guess I'll meet you in the parking lot".

Tell someone to choose between God and you...and he might choose God.

Amazing concept, that.

When Christians start flying planes into buildings as part of a war mandated by Jesus give me a call.

When Christians start sawing off the heads of innocents while chanting the Lord's prayer give me a call.

"Tell someone to choose between God and you...and he might choose God." (is allah God?)

My question to him had nothing to do with me. If called to decide to war for allah against America, the country where he lives and where his children were born, he said he would follow allah's call. take it for what it is or make more silly non-parallel comments about, what did you call it..."a frightening plausible prospect"...of a war between Christians and America.

An op-ed piece in the NYT proffered the suggestion that Christianity led by a "true" believer, Bush, is comparable to islam led by a true believer like the mullahs. I thought that no sensble person could agree with that, I still do.
