It is the goal of The Won to ALWAYS be on what the rest of the civilized world would consider to be "the wrong side".
It’s a shame they waited until after their country was destroyed to do the right thing.
I wonder when the people in this country will do that - before or after its destruction?
Okay, thank you.
But how can a Shiite distinguish between a Sunni and other Shiites just by seeing them?
But how does a Shiite look at another mohammedan and determine that he is a Sunni, and vice versa? What do the members of the two different groups actually do in their daily lives that is different from the behavior of the adherents in the other group?
Shia really like calling their kids Hussein and Ali. If you ever see a Abu-Bakr, Omar, Muwaiyah or Yazid, he's almost certainly a Sunni.
Shia also believe in respecting the graves of Mo's Companions, and pray at their graves out of respect and often requests for their spiritual intercession. Sunnis view this as grave-worshiping and therefore shirk (polytheism) and equivalent to apostasy. Sunnis would actually prefer to destroy all the graves, bodies and monuments that encourage shirk.
This is a BIG deal for Muslims, because apostasy carries a death sentence. Therefore this practice marks all Shia for death in the eyes of some Sunnis. It's roughly comparable to Catholic veneration of saints and beliefs in Intercession, as opposed to Protestant minimalism.
Although obviously it's not as big of a deal, as Christianity doesn't demand death for Christians who may or may not have deviated.
Some Shia also engage in self-flagellation. Shia have also historically used mutah (temporary marriages) to justify Islamically what is basically prostitution.
Thank you so much for taking so much time to answer my questions. God bless.
Let’s see... what’d it take... about a week (after that spiffy speech at West Point about our new foreign policy)?
If you gave the Protestants automatic weapons and a thirst for blood....
It is stunning to watch this kaleidoscope of scandals.
If Barry is shaking your hand with his right hand, keep an eye on the left hand because he is picking your pocket.
He’s been giving the enemy the green light for 6 years.
According to the article's title, it's on my head since I helped train those morons. Thankfully the Peshmerga were far better students.
The answer is distinctive head dress. But the Sunni also attack Shia market places and take their chances ( no Sunni would ever go to a Shia market). Even the women wear color differences. Let me assure you that religious distraction is averted gaze in the leftist press. Educate yourself and you will see a different picture. It is important to your family.
Hat tip to your service
I listened to an interview with a Doctor that has fled Syria, and he said that he wished America would understand that their form of democracy doesn’t work in other places. He said that under Assad the Christians were safe and all the people got along fairly well. Then a Christian bishop was interviewed and he begged Americans to stop supplying weapons to the people that are killing Christians.
Thank you so much for taking the time to educate me. Much appreciated.
