You asked me a question,
I answered you.

Yes,
I know what hate is.

So unless you had my childhood, I know versions of hate you don't know. Simple as that.

And you don't know me either.

Which is a blessing for both of us.

Lets promise each other not to change that either.

"...and I even saw that he was on FR back then."

Who did you mean? Your friend or Mel?

There's an e-mail addy there somewhere. Tonight, I am going to write Braveheart a letter. See what happens. It will probably end up in the deleted file...but who knows.

[higgmeister]

I think it's a great idea and whom better to do it.

[Fred Nerks]

I suppose what it comes down to is, is islam a religion or a cult or a theocracy?

One thing's for certain, the way they are behaving, we will have no difficulty in working THAT out.

[Sir Francis Dashwood]

None of that has anything to do with the price of tea in China either...

[Chickensoup]

We can't lose sight of the fact that most Muslims DO NOT endorse terrorism, and are in fact very much against it. Right now it doesn't seem as if there are any vocal, moderate Muslims, but all that I know personally are very pro-America


I don't know where you get the word "most." I have NO evidence that MOST Moslims are against terrorism.

And a penny saved is a penny earned.

Golly, I've had cat toys that were more fun to play with.

[MikefromOhio]

Umm guys, I am sure you could present a better argument WITHOUT posting and ridiculing the picture of a fellow FReeper. Maybe I'm weird, I don't know, but that just doesn't seem to be an effective tactic to me.

Thanks.

Eggs for breakfast?

Sure! What time do you want me to knock you up?

[Sir Francis Dashwood]

Golly, I've had cat toys that were more fun to play with.

I think you full of it...

If you think the Constitution protects a "religion", that has as one of it's tenants, that people of non Islamic faiths, and atheists be either taxed, enslaved, or killed, you have much to learn about both the Constitution, and Islam.

[higgmeister]

Sounds like "Church of Christ" or was it just Evangelicals?
I thought you were so angry you had to take a break,  Neener Neener....;).

For the same reason that the Dimocrats can't make the decision as to where American troops should be strategically withdrawn to, you can't outlaw somebody's religious.

That reason is that both actions are outlawed by the Constitutuion.

But Ben Lurkin's statement is a great step in the right direction.

"Making Islam "illegal" is unworkable and an affront to western ideals.

"We do, however, need to eradicate aggressive Islam and aggressive Islamists and that may be a very many people.

"Whoever's left will be convinced that the submission of Islam means submission to the West."

[najida]

And I think you're small of spirit.

We can go at it all night if you want....but what a waste of bandwidth.

[TheBrotherhood]

"Making Islam illegal -- is it the West's only choice?"

No.

My first choice would be to 1)revoke their citizenship and deport them 2)don't ever let them into our countries again.

[najida]

I took a break and taught a class....then got pinged that my picture was up on the thread without my knowledge...which is very bad Freep manners.

Right up there with talking about someone without pinging them.

As for the religion, good old home grown south Georgia Church of God Hates You and I Hate You Too.

I have other pictures I ya wanna see them.

Okay!

[najida]

You would chime in ;)

I'll point you to them :)
