You don’t hear much
about Good Christians. In the main, they’re just trying to live their lives and where they can, ease the suffering of others. That’s what being a Christian is supposed to be about. Being low key, being as good as you can be, and helping others. There’s precious little heroism involved. When they do put their faces into the public eye, it is usually to do things like trying to stop the use of public funds to pay for things like abortion and embryonic stem cell research. if you are a Christian, to countenance those things endangers your soul. And the ridicule Christians get for this is always sharp and nasty, and those who ridicule ignorant of the very truth.
Good Muslims, on the other hand, you hear about all the time; they’re called “Radical islamists” by most; not only the MSM but even “conservative” talk show hosts like Hannity. See, to follow the precepts of the Koran you must disdain all non muslims, and you have little or no consequence involved in treating others as inhuman; in fact, your theology demands it of you. Real “Radical islamists” (and they are out there) actually act more like good Christians. Pity there aren’t a lot more of them.
This is not an opinion I have, it is a demonstrable fact. If you don’t “believe” it, you are a fool; facts are not to be believed or not believed, they are simply facts. If you “Disagree” you might just as well disagree that humans need oxygen. It is only necesary to study Islam to understand the facts, and if you refuse it is because you want to be ignorant of the facts.
Your ignorance will not help you when they knock on your door, and by the time they knock on your door you will have no choices but to submit. This is the history of Islam, and it is it’s manifest destiny, and only eternal vigilance and proactiveness will prevent it.
If you were trying to start an argument with me about this you did a piss poor job of it!
I would not posit an argument on the great Og’s part. I’ve lived in close quarters with Muslims and he is right. To them the radicals are more like Christians. They are eternally angry. Mainly about the fact the world does not afford them the respect their so called relgion demands. To a true Muslim, you have two choices in life. Submit to their will or die. No middle ground. No you do your thing I do mine. They are the most arrogant assholes in the universe. All that from a bunch of people who think God revealed his whole universe to a perverted goat herder in the desert.
Man, don’t even get me start on Muslims.
Paul, you missed that I was making a joke there?
They are a piece of work. Wanting to destroy “The Great Satan”, all while shopping at COSCO (in Alexandra VA) when they are afforded the luxury of being “stationed” in the US (at their respective embassy or in some sort of military function.) Saw this first hand when I worked for the Kuwaitis.
How is it that so many do not have this clarity of vision?
Unk: I heard you loud and clear, I think that Paul was agreeing, too.
Yep, just a matter of time when it comes down to US or THEM. Maybe sucking up to the Chicoms and The Russian Orthodox-types under Czar Putin might not be a bad idea, especially since the Muslim Chechnyans are raising “Jihad” in the Caucuses’ again. “Enemy of my Enemy” can be turned against the IslamaFascists.
Related to the topic: Roberta X is running a thread on whether the Anointed One is trying to start up a Global War to bail his sorry ass out, and Breda is telling everyone that one doesn’t have to BURN the Koran, one just needs to Download and Delete. Might want to check out the Ladies sites for further details.
Yes, Unk. I did get the joke. Not that I think we should joke about this.
Reminds me of the joke about the arab, indian and cowboy. Punch line goes we have not played cowboys and arabs yet.
I definitely agree with Og, even though he is not fond of most Methodist’s, at least we agree on God and his only son.
I am not so eloquent as Og, but I was dropped on my head at an early age so am not so good with words.
I’ll keep trying though :-)
I don’t have any problem, with any Christians. I giggle a lot when protestants (all theologies created by men) think of themselves as “the one true christianity”
