cult (noun) – a particular system of religious worship, esp. with reference to its rites and ceremonies. Ergo, ALL religions are cults.

Islam, a False religion, was created by one man.. Mohammad, about 700 years after Christ walked the Earth….. A Jewish Rabbi, who had to flee Jerusalem to keep from being stoned to death, for teaching false teachings…… It took him some 27 years to get from Jerusalem to Mecca, in that time, he wrote the Quo'ran… He chose to use the Babylonian god Allah, the moon god.. as his deity.. because he was aiming his newly created religion at the Arabs who worshiped several gods… and had them to dispense with their other gods… So ask yourself.. is there any wonder he put in the Qua'ran man times that all Jews had to die… that was why he created this religion, to destroy all Jews.. and over time it has been used to destroy anyone they didn't like…

Don't believe the hype they want you to believe, they are a religion of peace.. BS… They ahve always been a false religion of HATE!!!!

Starman seemed to be saying there was something paranoid or xenophobic about Murtard's post, I don't see it. Oops, looking at it again, I think you meant to post to Starman as well. I should have spotted that sooner, time for bed.

Anything relating to Islam cannot be understood without reading the Koran. The Koran is the Muslim's holy book given directly to Mohammad from Allah. There are also books on Islam written by Robert Spencer which are extremely accurate and truthful. There is a main focus and directive in the Koran which is very troubling. All Muslims are directed to convert the unbelievers, or subjugate them or when the first two actions are unsuccessful Muslims are directed to kill the unbelievers. I call this the "Great Modifier" of the Koran. Why ? Because these directives are never rescinded or modified. So, no matter what you are told regarding Islam always remember the "Great Modifier". Remembering will save your freedom and your life and those of your family.

We demanded that the Japanese institute a separation of church and state. The result was a civilized country where Christians are free to worship.

By comparison Bush said that if Afghan elections resulted in theocracy, he would accept the result. Now, we are living with that result. Christians are vilified, apostates are sentenced to death.

We should have demanded a separation of mosque and state. They lost the war which means that they don't get to choose a form of tyranny any more than Germany or Japan did.

Yes there is, sanity and the desire to remain a free country says we can't.

I read this possibility: If the mosque were funded by Americans, there'd be no way to stop it. But if it's funded by foreigners, as is likely, then there are options, especially if some are tired to terroist entities – as is the case.

It is not the free exercise clause that is the important part of the 1st Amendment in this case. It is the freedom of speech clause. The 1st Amendment was not intended solely to protect religious worship but the right to speak your mind on any subject as well. Above all, it was intended to protect both political speech and offensive speech. Who has ever been jailed for saying things that were too inoffensive?

A mosque at ground zero is unquestionably offensive. It is intended to offend and provoke retaliation so that it's Wahhabi sponsors can claim to be victims and gain a protected legal status.

That's why it must not be stopped. Once offensive speech is shut down in America then it is only a matter of time until the principle is extended to everyone. Critics of Islamic lunacy will be hauled before commissions run by the government in conjunction with Wahhabi scholars and charged with insulting Islam, just as Steyn was charged in Canada.

You cannot compete with Islam in a bigotry contest, they have far more experience and are much better at it than the rest of us. At worst their insult should be ignored. At best the mosque should be treated as an object of ridicule, an ineffective, pathetic attempt to provoke Americans into surrendering their liberty.

Sacrificing our 1st Amendment is too great a price to pay to retaliate for an insult.

sorry you feel that way , I'm not convinced , and i've read it at least 4 times . I consider anyone that can commit it to memory an oddity rather than a miracle . I must confess , I'm of the habit of determining a tree by it's fruit , and when I look around the world , that "fruit " is less than flattering .I do not doubt , in fact I know it hasn't changed in 1400 years , and interpretations may vary but all have as their source the same book ,which in my opinion has the mark of men all throughout . God blesses everyone ,as the next breath we take is a blessing .

The same people who argued against the presence of the Ten Commandments in a public place support the erection of a mosque that will become part of the site of a monument to the 9/11 horror. The Muslim terrorists who flew the planes into the Twin Towers as a testament to their religion probably never dreamed that a monument to their religion would be established on the site. The Muslim World has virtually zero tolerance for non-Islamic religious practice or monuments. No wonder they consider us to be infidels.

Badaboo, I have read the entire Qur'an itself in Arabic plus the translation in English and I am convinced that this could only be the word of God. I cannot reproduce anything like it. But maybe you think you can. God bless you.
The fact that it remains exactly as it was 1400 years ago and millions of people around the world can recite it from memory is in itself a miracle. But that it is just my opinion. People have different ways of defining miracles.
I respect your view.

I suggest you do some earnest /honest investigation , and learn who wrote it and how it was written .

nabi18 although my original commnent was deleted , basically it stated that it is no "miracle " , not by any stretch of the imagination .

By: badaboo

badaboo — Sun, 01 Aug 2010 16:01:34 +0000

sorry nabi18 , but the Q'uran is no "miracle " …not by any stretch . It contains animus and denigration of non-muslims , preaches violence towards those who won't revert . And makes no secret of the ultimate "Goal the Prophet " which is world subjugation to islam.
I suggest you do a little earnest investigation on WHO wrote the Q'uran , and HOW it was written . It is a perfect example of religious supremacism and an utter disregard for non-muslims .

Babs,

This was one point an an ongoing response to a comment by ObamaMama (with the RatFinK graphic) – who was continuing the old argument that 'the scaryMuslimsare evil' that they are robots – orpossessedby demons or something. I have been fighting this kind of stupid xenophobia for about 50 years. My countering argument centered around my observation that ISLAM meaning submission or surrender to God was in fact the basis of Christian Devotion as taught by the mystics and theologians of since the beginning. His response to me re-iterated his pre-judging of Islam (btw I'm a Christian not that it matters) as unique in its 'mind control' of itsadherents – leading to Jihad alaArmageddon. To counter this – I used an allegory of the Children's Crusade – where Christians were deceived through the twisting of their religion (I'm pretty sure it wasn't the Vision Boy who fleeced the faithful) into doing something stupid. I Just trying to get ObamaMama (impossible) or his readers (like you) to consider the OTHER as a human being just like themselves – by putting themselves (or theirancestors) into that OTHERS' shoes.

It is not being paranoid when they really are after you. I submit the Lower Court judges decision in New Jersey where he said raping and beating of a woman, the man's wife, was okay because Sharia authorized it where he came from! Not paranoya! (sp)

Parents were NOT told by priests that their children were being called by God…Stephen, a French boy, claimed that Jesus had appeared to him and that Jerusalem would be taken by the children. Thousands of youngters (average age was 12) marched from France and Germany but MOST of them were captured and sold to Muslims. They never fought any battles….and I never heard of the Crusades being called Operation Enduring Hatred…misguided most definitely as the cause of Christ was never meant to be promoted by the sword….so what's your point?

One potential preventative could be the issue of public security and safety…If Hon Mayor Bloomberg had a pair, he could create a commission to "study" the issue and this could take several years…after that various appeals and other concerns could stall this Trojan Horse from being allowed near ground zero.
