Obama's mosque visit is leading by example
The Baltimore Sun @ QCOnline ^ | February 8, 2016 | Mike Ghouse

Posted on 02/08/2016 8:37:36 AM PST by skimbell

President Barack Obama's visit to a Baltimore-area mosque Wednesday will help build a strong cohesive America and send a signal to the Muslim majorities elsewhere in the world -- in roughly 50 Muslim managed nations -- to treat Christians and other minorities with dignity, and encourage them to retain U.S. business relations and sustain our economic base of exports...

Are there any Christians left alive, not sex slaves, not living in fear and intimidation and forced poverty in the Islamic world?

No, it’s taqquyia.
Muslims are encouraged to lie to and deceive infidels to gain advantage for Islam.

The future must not belong to those who deny the true nature of Islam

John Quincy Adams on Islam

In the seventh century of the Christian era, a wandering Arab of the lineage of Hagar, the Egyptian, combining the powers of transcendent genius, with the preternatural energy of a fanatic, and the fraudulent spirit of an impostor, proclaimed himself as a messenger from Heaven, and spread desolation and delusion over an extensive portion of the earth. Adopting from the sublime conception of the Mosaic law, the doctrine of one omnipotent God; he connected indissolubly with it, the audacious falsehood, that he was himself his prophet and apostle. Adopting from the new Revelation of Jesus, the faith and hope of immortal life, and of future retribution, he humbled it to the dust, by adapting all the rewards and sanctions of his religion to the gratification of the sexual passion. He poisoned the sources of human felicity at the fountain, by degrading the condition of the female sex, and the allowance of polygamy; and he declared undistinguishing and exterminating war, as a part of his religion, against all the rest of mankind. THE ESSENCE OF HIS DOCTRINE WAS VIOLENCE AND LUST: TO EXALT THE BRUTAL OVER THE SPIRITUAL PART OF HUMAN NATURE.

Between these two religions, thus contrasted in their characters, a war of twelve hundred years has already raged. That war is yet flagrant; nor can it cease but by the extinction of that imposture, which has been permitted by Providence to prolong the degeneracy of man. While the merciless and dissolute dogmas of the false prophet shall furnish motives to human action, there can never be peace upon earth, and good will towards men. The hand of Ishmael will be against every man, and every man’s hand against him. It is, indeed, amongst the mysterious dealings of God, that this delusion should have been suffered for so many ages, and during so many generations of human kind, to prevail over the doctrines of the meek and peaceful and benevolent Jesus (Blunt, 1830, 29:269, capitals in orig.)

It will send a signal to muslims all over the world...that Obama is a pandering pussy, and it will be perceived as a sign of America's weakness. But it's not America that's weak, it's Obama. And he's out in less than a year.

I’m not going to bother reading the full editorial after that excerpt of complete and utter nonsense that firmly belongs in the category of outrageous fantasy. Christians in Muslim majorty countries are being killed and slowly cleansed from the land and Christianity faces very real extermination in the Middle East. There are numerous verses of the Qur’an that deride non-Muslims as the “vilest of creatures, among other things and Christians are specifically targeted in S. 9:29 to be aggressively conquered by Muslims till they be killed, convert or live under Islamic rule under submission. I would enjoy the opportunity to crush the author in a debate on the subject and it would be quite easy to demonstrate that Imam Obama’s proselytizing for Islam with full sympathy for the religion of terrorism in no way has or will improve the situation of Christians in Islamic countries. In fact, you could start with the denial of a Christian genocide in Syria and move on to numerous examples of how he has worsened their situation.

As if one needs further proof that today’s journalists comprise a great majority of the population scoring six sigma (or worse) to the left of the Bell Curve.

In what alternative universe does this idiot live? Does he really think that Obama going to a mosque and talking about unity and inclusion is going to stop Muslims in Syria from killing Christians?

You have to be an extremely special kind of stupid to make this comment.
Their religion dictates that they do not treat Christians or anyone else with dignity. Get a clue........

Poor leading. Why would any decent and intelligent person follow a road to disaster?

The author is ecstatic and unable to appreciate the gravity of the situation.
