Are you a psychiatrist or something?

I guess I am just a "something" who wants to preserve our constitutional republic.

I have a good friend who is quite close to the org. :-)

Islam is like a boa constrictor. It doesn't seem so bad at first, but when it gets enough of itself around you it begins to crush you.

True. A Muslim that tries to leave gets a death penalty placed on him. So much for tolerance or peace.

[SwordofTruth]

She said in her Mosque, no one believes these passgaes apply to modern times.

She is lying to you. Muslims love to lie, especially to infidels.

[Abar]

I never realized how many freepers actually support & defend the Satanic Cult of Death that's declared Jihad against America.

Scary.

Sickening.

The local Seattle islam & 'palestinian' terror front in the form of muslim Jafar Siddiqui, equates 'palestinian' suicide bombers with the U.S. Government.

Here's this muslim's reasoning:

Terrorism is the killing of innocent civilians. When the Israelis kill Mr. Hamas who killed dozens of Jews with nail bombs and the family Mr. Hamas is hiding behind die, the Israelis are guilty of terrorism. Since the US funds and supports the Israelis and the Israelis use AMERICAN Cat D-9's, AMERICAN Apaches, and AMERICAN F-16s, the US government is equally guilty of terrorism.

Jafar Siddiqui gives press conferences with the fbi & federal prosecutors and says he "denounces terrorism" and then with a barely perceptable smirk, continues "I denounce all terrorism." And now you know the rest of the story.

Since this thread started more than likely Islam blew up a McDonalds and flew a airplane into a building.

Well since we are questioning the president's religious convictions let's test yours. Do you believe as the Muslims believe that each are destined for hell?

I'm not sure who you are referring to when you say 'each'. The Saudis can sure go to (and burn in) hell, if they continue to sneak around like this! So can any muslim unwilling to stand up to, and against, their misguided, brainwashed brothers and sisters.

"ISLAM IS PEACE-BUMP" for post #295

[Delphinium]

my Muslim neighbor drives a GMC Envoy, sends his kids to a CATHOLIC school, and thinks Yassir Arafat is a dumb-ass. He calls him "pizza face.

Then your muslim neighbor isn't really following Islam is he. Just because we say that Islam is evil, does not mean we condemm all Muslims. I have known a few seemingly very nice Muslims who devoutly follow Islam. Before 911 I was bothered, but now I can say that I somewhat fear them.I will not run away though, but preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ to them.That is where our hope is.

starts shooting abortion doctors

There is a big difference between abortion, (murderers of babies) and innocent bystanders in this country, and Israel.

[A Navy Vet]

Would be informative to list the foiled plots and near misses. I've lost count of the media reports of various Muslim terrorists being caught red-handed or detained for suspicion.

Yes, there are non-violent Muslims; yes, there are moderate Muslims; yes, there are Westernized Muslims. Unfortunately, your list speaks volumns. Interestingly, I haven't seen any reports of late about Christians or Jews funding, coordinating, inacting, or supporting murderous acts against innocent men, women, and children. I'm sorry, but something about this particular religion incites these monsters.

Personally, I call it the "Lazy Man's Guide to Paradise". You can lie, cheat, steal, maim, kill, be intolerant to infidels and still go to Heaven. Little harder for those who have to be tolerant and follow civilized behaviors for entry.

I see. You approve. The Muslims feel the same way about infidels and they also are against abortion and see the west as promoting it along with sex, drugs, alcohol and all sin in general. Just like the Muslims say, we do not condone terrorism but...... Many Christians say I don't condone killing abortion doctors but........

Bush is a religious prostitute. He believes all religions are equal.

[A. Pole]

Jordan and Turkey, to name two. Both countries also have minorities of other faiths.

Wrong, Turkey does not as - in the last decades Turks purged the remains of previously numerous Christian Greek population - the original ihabitants of Asia Minor. I will not mention Armenians. In Jordan the ancient Christian population (predating the Islam) is shrinking slowly. In Egypt faster and in large areas of North Africa (where Saint Augustine lived) no Christians are to be found anymore.

The main remaining Christian groops are Copts (who became a minority in their native country long the ago and are loosing their share in population. Jordianian/Palestian Christians shrinking too, Christians in Syria and Iraq who have the most rights in Muslim world and last but not the least the Lebanese Christians who were the majority well into the middle of XXc

If Bush is a born-again follower of Christ, he's thoroughly fooled me...

One suspects you're easily fooled.

[Jael]

Thanks for the bump. That list was given to me by Bobby777. :-)

The Founding Fathers would strongly disagree with you. Most of them were confessing Christians.

Besides, where in the First Amendment does it say that all religions are equal? It says that we will tolerate all of them, but it does not say that they are all equal.

[Zack Nguyen]

"The spirit behind this holiday is a reminder that Islam brings hope and comfort to more than 1 billion people worldwide," Bush said. "Islam affirms God's justice and insists on man's moral responsibility."

I think Bush goes too far in affirming the legitimacy of Islam. Here is some more.

Here is a quote from a Bush speech to the U.N. in 2001.

They [the terrorists] dare to ask God's blessing as they set out to kill innocent men, women and children. But the God of Isaac and Ishmael would never answer such a prayer.

This indicates that the God of Islam and the Jehovah God of the Bible and Christianity are the same.

Clearly Bush is a Christian. But I think he is wrong here. A simple affirmation/warning that we should be tolerant and peaceful to peace-loving Muslims is all that is needed. Participating in their religious ceremonies, holding them up as a desirable and true faith, is simple wrong for a Christian or anyone else.

That is all I am saying.
