“Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities, but the influence of
the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it.
No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being
moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has
already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at
every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the
strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly
struggled, the civilization of modern Europe might fall, as fell the
civilization of ancient Rome.”
Sir Winston Churchill (The River War, first edition, Vol. II, pages
248-50, London: Longmans, Green Co., 1899).
Churchill got it - too bad you don’t.
Hey, that’s dynamite. If Churchill were running for President, I might vote for him. But he’s not. Mitch probably will, though, and if he does, I will vote for him.
Look, there are three viable candidates for President on the GOP side: Pawlenty, Romney, and Mitch. Pick one. I happen to think that Mitch is the best of the three.
