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.

ouch

Scuffed up my left eyeball by overwearing my contacts last week, and am now paying the price. Oversensitivity to light, have to use antibiotic eyedrops which sting every two hours, it’s a huge pain. Getting better but very slowly. Damn, if it’s not one thing it’s another.

Pascal has a post up which asks a serious question of our elected officials, and those who finance them: How far will you go? What damage will you do? How soon can we expect to lose our country completely? Is there anyone out there actually listening to the American people?

Read the damned book

There’s a discussion ongoing at the Munchkin Wrangler (Welcome to the blogroll, incidentally, sorry it’s taken so long) about the Koran and the Bible.

The discussion begins with the koran-burning minister in Florida. I haven’t got a dog in that fight, but I know from the experience of my friends that this is not such a good idea.

And therin likes the crux of the problem.

It is so often repeated- and is done so by Marko in the thread- that it is possible to cherry pick nastiness from the bible AND the Koran. Well, this is bullshit. You can spend some hours flipping through the bible, but you only have to open the Koran to any page to find the xenophobia.

If you’re going to make pronouncements about the contents of the Bible and the Koran, you should have taken the time to read them first. Once you do, your thoughts on them will parallel mine pretty accurately, if you are not insane.
