ROFL!!! Oh man, I have a headache, laughing is just not good right now..
Ya gotta see #39
As detailed in the Bible, God sets a high standard for the prophet - perfection. If the person claiming to be a prophet is wrong on even one prophecy, s/he is not a prophet sent by God. In fact, of the ones who issue even one false prophecy, God says we are not to fear them.
So, was Muhammad perfect in prophecy or not? If he prophesied one thing that didn't come to pass, he was not a prophet of God.
Immanentizing the Eschaton.
The Imam has a cure for that, too...
No No No No No No No No No No No No No... The terrorists win if we stop shopping or... if the government treats the pooah widdle tewowwists mean.
If you view this as a continuation of the rioting that started in France in the fall, then this is a big big story.
The cartoons were spread around the Muslim world by a Danish imam. Several faked images were thrown in. A little fact the Associated Press missed.

We have to disseminate the truth ourselves. The news media will not do it. It looks out for itself first.
And I apologize for the double post.
Not at all, but that's a great point because the article did amount to editorialzing because it attempted to shape readers' opion by omitting important facts related to the story. The A/P reported only the islamic side of the story, and neglected to report credible evidence that their leaders assembled and instigated the rabble six months after the fact of the printing of the cartoons. This 'cartoon excuse' is just terrorist propaganda, drivel, and putrid food for the ravenous anti-American appetite of the leftist MSM. This A/P reprot may as well have been written by al Jazeera as a clarion call to the "freedom fighters" of islam.
If the liberal media aren't busy causing muslim outrage, (Newsweek false story), they are busy whitewashing same.
btw, if saving your life depended on finding an MSM piece about the Republican Party or Pres. Bush that didn't editorialize then your life expectancy would be very, very short.
How is referring to "The Prophet" (without quotes) in the headline NOT EDITORIALIZING and GROSS BIAS? Is it objective journalistic fact that Mohammed was a "prophet"? It is only Moslems who believe this. Christians, Jews, Hindus, Buddhists, Atheists and all other non-Moslems do not acknowledge that the subject of the Jyllands-Posten cartoons was a "prophet."
And then it would be considered bias according to other groups. I don't see how you can really complain considering Bush can't fall over himself enough calling Islam the 'religion of peace'. This is no big deal in comparison to that IMO. Has the witchhunt for bias devolved to the point you're concerned about which word they did or did not capitalize? I see the story merely as listing recent factual events
But Islam is a religion of peace!
