Have you heard that 80%, or there abouts, of the clergy of the church of england doesn't beleive in god or the afterlife?


They must all be john lennon fans.

6 percent of American converts to Islam are Hispanic

That's not really very many. I don't think most Hispanics care too much for the Islamics and never will. Most of these are probably just homely girls who had a chance to get married to someone even if an Arab and jumped at the chance.

Your percentage is wrong. The poll I saw indicated that about half did not believe that Jesus literally rose from the dead. That is from memory though. I am not British by the way. Cheers.

One of the things that brought me to Islam, that I think is so beautiful, is that Muslims come from all nations>>

And in her world Catholicism is only made up of Irish? This is probably one of the goofiest comments in the whole piece. Of couse there is her "intrigue" with the dress of Muslims in her high school. Sounds like a child that lacked some guidance in religious matters and became intrigued much like Johnny Taliban became intrigued with Islam. Well at least now she has a nice, middle Eastern slavemaster, I mean husband, to guide her.

In a few years after she tires of being treated like a slavegirl and tries to divorce, she looses her kids to her husband's family back home and will run to the American embassy to convince them to intervene and get her kids back for her. One reason I can't feel sorry for those women who rush into these marriages and then lose their kids.

Ok, let me rephrase


LIke, way more than just a little, man, don't beleive in god.

I guess the beetles were right when they claimed to be more popular than god, at least in england, huh?

The question needs be asked: "Whom do hispanic muslims see as the prime infidels and therefore want to kill the most?"

[Phillip Augustus]

I am inclined to agree. NO more turd world immigration for America or Europe.

Oh, PUHLEETH! Give me some numbers. There is NO rush to join the Islamic faith among Latins (they ARE NOT one race by the way) here in New York or in Miami, where I lived surrounded by South Americans.

This is the sort of story that would get the tin-foil hat/Aztlan Rising crowd who view Latinos and Muslims as evil forces.

I think everyone in this thread needs a lesson in simple math. Now when a group is small ANY increase can be seen as large growth. For example if there used to be 1 hispanic muslim and the number increased to 4 well that is a 200% increase.

[Torie]

I think that is 300%. :)

[Terridan]

Yes! And check out her age... she's too stupid to know any better...

[FITZ]

I know of two mexican women who married muslims. One had her child kidnapped and taken to Iran ---her former inlaws are kind enough to let her speak with her son on the phone but she'll never see him at least until he's an adult and could leave on his own. The other's husband wants another wife because she's unable to conceive, she hates living over there, she's an unbelieving muslim now, she isn't allowed to work so has no money to leave but is collecting the gold given to her as gifts so someday she can get out. She also weighs about 400 pounds so escaping is out of the question.

I want them all deported no matter what ethnicity they are because they are illegal aliens who snuck in, they don't deserve to be in the united states. There is no such thing as a latino or hispanic or even a chicano!

[Classicaliberalconservative]

Hehe, my mistake. I really need to focus on my math more too. :)

"Eli, Eli, lama sabachtani (My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?).

If Jesus said these words, it represents a blatant declaration of disbelief according to all theological authorities. This is a great insult as such words could only come from an unbeliever in God. Further, it is incredible that such words should come from a Prophet of God, because God never breaks His promise and His Prophets never complained against His promise, especially when the Prophet’s mission is understood. It could be said that whoever relates that this statement was said by a Prophet (Jesus), is a disbeliever.

Hey Einstein, he was Quoting the beginning of Psalm 22:1. The Psalm of David. The Psalm that he fulfilled.

It is a Psalm of great praise to God. Something you clearly would know nothing about.

"You can be Mexican and be a Muslim and be happy," she added. "You don't have to be torn between two things."

"But best of all, you can be brain-dead and be Muslim. You never have to think, because all of your actions are dictated for you. It's just so liberating to be free of all the burdens of having a life.

And of course, there's always Allah's Lottery, that if you win becuause you completely sacrificed yourself to him, you might get to spend eternity in an eternal brothel, having fun all the time. Oh, wait a minute...I forgot, I'm a woman and don't qualify for that. They have beautiful perrenial virgins there and have even less respect for me than here on earth.

Well, whatever, it's still nice not having to think."
