Born and raised in Detroit...left in 1979. When I go back and drive through town, I have to fight back tears. On the near eastside one no longer hears church bells tolling services or the hours...one hears Islamic calls to prayer.

Christians have become the “other”. Most of the city is desolated...back in the sixties political decisions were made to not confront crime...it was “racist”. Everyone who could afford it...moved.

There’s not much left.

Beware Chicago...this could be you in twenty years.

In the Obamanation, “civil rights” are not about rights. It is now about advantage, not equality. His government will only use civil rights and hate crimes laws to give the plaintiff an advantage. Since whites, males, Christians, and straights “deserve” no advantage (in his mind), they do not get the benefit of civil rights.

The criminalization of Christianity continues.

The world is preparing itself for the Antichrist and the Tribulation, when those who follow Christ will be beheaded. Christianity must be eradicated for the Antichrist to come to power.

It's heartbreaking to see, but Scripture tells us that this is going to happen and it's not going to get any better.

Indeed. I left Chicago 4 years ago after being there about 50 years. Your 20 year scenario is optimistic.

I guess I would wonder how Christians would feel if Arabs would go into a Christian Church to give out Arab stuff. I guess I feel if it is not your festival why do you bother going or give out stuff. I am a Catholic and don’t go into Jewish places to give out Catholic literature. Also as a Catholic, I don’t go into born again conferences to give out my literature there either. I guess I am more the mind your own business type person.

Christians are commissioned by Christ to reason unbelievers into embracing the one true faith.

The misguided followers of Islam are commanded by “Allah” to slaughter,forcibly convert or enslave the “unbeliever.”

Right off the bat,Muslims bring guns to Christian pillow fights.

Many say Islam needs the glorious reformation of a Christ to remove the antiquated evils of it's doctrine.I say they are so behind in the understanding of the true blessings of God's love they may need the teachings of even a B.C. preacher like the logic genius Cicero first. Gotta crawl before you can walk.

If a bunch of Muslims crashed my party and began waving around Korans and “share their Muslim faith” and generally being a PITA, I’d hope they get arrested too.

And if they weren’t it wouldn’t be because I didn’t call the law.

Some communities still have laws for actions seen as a public nuisance. That seems to apply.

Freedom of speech is one thing. Freedom of harassment is another.

The cops do as they are told are not “allowed” to use their brains as rational people to figure out what is happening and see right or wrong. The cops were told by the administration to do this. It’s a deliberate choice by the politicians to ignore the rights of Christians in favor of the people who vote for them and give them money.

Having read many posts so far,I feel a creeping Fascism in Free Republic of late...

Hope it's just election time on line subversion by covert Soros operatives who have purchased established Freeper accounts and not the anti-conservative backsliding of the faithful.

There are plenty of Christian Arabs, especially from Lebanon.

So was this an Arab Festival, or a Muslim Festival?
