ON THE "RELIGION OF PEACE"(tm):

*****

AN ISLAMOFASCIST'S "TEN COMMANDMENTS"
1. There is no God but Moon-boy
2. Mohammed is his PR man
3. Kill everyone who does not believe Rules 1 and 2
4. Deny continually to those who do not believe Rules 1 and 2 that Rule 3 exists at all.
5. Enslave all women, mutilate them, and dress 'em ugly
6. Repeat Rule 3
7. Repeat Rule 4
8. Repeat Rule 3
9. Repeat Rule 4
10. Repeat Rule 3

*****

A form response to those who attempt to fog the issue by equating Islam and Christianity:

oh, joy: yet another round of the moral-equivalency tango.
Christianity and Islam are not significantly different in their holy texts, eh?

OK, try this on for size:
You tried to equate Christianity with Islam. This is why I ask you to find even one passage, relating to religion and treatment of others, which fulfills the following requirements:

1. in the "catholic" post-Nicaea Christian testament (but I'll gladly throw it open to the Jewish book)
2. a literal...
3. plain-text...
4. indisputable...
5. ongoing present-tense (as opposed to a one-shot past-tense record of history/folklore - ie: Joshua)...
6. commandment from God (not a pope or a bishop or some >a-hem!< televangelist)...
7. as a directive to the believer to take literally and actively in the temporal realm
8. to do any or all of the following:
-a. to slay the heretic and non-believer,
-b. to forcibly convert the heretic and non-believer,
-c. to enslave the heretic and non-believer,
-d. to persecute the heretic and non-believer,
-e. to wage holy war upon the heretic and non-believer
9. Directly analogous to the dozens thereof in the Koran.

(so you know, things like II Thessalonians 1:8,9 don't count - that is God kicking ass, not his faithful doing so for him. An important distinction equivocators seem to like to sweep under the rug.)

Now, turnabout:
Find JUST ONE passage in either the Koran or the Sunnah which is the direct analogue of the Parable of the Samaritan, or the directive to the witness to leave an unbeliever in peace - to "knock the dust of his home from their soles as they leave" - rather than butcher him in zealous fury, or to the believer contained in I Cor 7:12-17, or I Cor 10:32, or II Cor 6:14-18, or Ephesians 6:10-12, or... do you get the point?
Find JUST ONE comparable passage in the Koran or the Sunnah.
Good luck - I have been looking for over a year and have not found any such analogues.

on Araby:

If ever you find yourself in Muslim lands - especially ARAB Muslim lands! - there are some rules-of-thumb you should bear in mind:

1. Never trust an Arab with anything valuable or important. It is simply just not a good idea.

2. Never believe an Arab's given word. Always accept it, but NEVER stake your life on it.

3. The Arab's "Insh'Allah" is roughly equivalent to a Mexican's "manana" - If an Arab says "XYZ will be done, insh'allah" don't hold your breath.

4. The sum of all opinion on Arabs from all other peoples who have dealt with them over the last 3000 years is that they are vain, prickly, untrustworthy, gullible, and extremely emotional and mercurial.

5. Arab-Islamic culture fosters institutional paranoia and psychotic disconnection from mundane cause-effect logic and reality. It is as if they are perpetual four-year-olds. See 1-4... make sense now?

6. From family members and longtime friends who have had decades of experience in Saudi, Bahrain, Qatar, Kuwait, and the Arab lands along the Levant and North Africa, a summary: "The only thing an Arab man really understands is getting killed."

7. From personal experience: Individually, Arabs can be the friendliest, most charming, warmest folks on Earth, but... they have the LOWEST "mob-mind" threshhold of any demographic I have encountered: TWO ARABS can easily become a mob-mind.

8. Do not look at or speak to their women in public.

9. Do not DATE or BED their women, period.

10. Never travel in daylight with fewer than two non-Arab companions. Never travel at night with fewer than four non-Arab companions.

11. Do not drink any alcohol while in Arab lands - not a matter of respecting Islamic prohibitions, but a matter of keeping your wits about you.

12. Do not refuse a privately provided meal, but be sure to obey rule #10 and eat nothing your host has not already tasted.

13. Failure to haggle - over ANYTHING - is an insult.

14. Keep your eyes open, your mind clear, your emotions on hold, and your powder dry.

15. Avoid competing with the indigs in any form of discussion, but do NOT back down or agree with them if they attack what they know you believe - to do so signals weakness. Be polite, but be firm.

16. Do not say anything which could be considered a slight on the manhood of Arabs in general or any Arab member of your audience, unless you want to have to kill or be killed.

17. Prepare yourself to be bored with interminable formalities and figures of speech and rote phrases and all other conversational space-filler of this sort.

18. Discount the descriptive adjectives by an intensity factor of one order of magnitude.

Doing business with Muslims:
Don't, I used to be in the construction business in southern Cali, and no one I knew would even bother to bid their projects.
A promise from a Muslim is merely a way to end a conversations, and if you think anything else, then your a fool

This is a bit of remedial reading I'll admit.........however, it provides much in the understanding of the roots of who these terrorists are:

All, and more, accessed from:

This is an interesting expose' on the subject as to whether the USA is guilty of the current terrorism.

It suggests NOT!

Enjoy.
