Of course it is, and that's not at all what I said. I merely said that the "Allah" of the terrorists is not at all the same "Allah" worshipped by devout mainstream Muslims who believe in the rule of law, in the same way I would say that the "God" of the Spanish Inquisitors is not the same "God" of Pope Francis.

That kind of mental gymnastics would make the Fierce Five proud.

Here's a much simpler way to express what I was trying to say earlier:

anyone who claims to be doing "God's will", isn't.



in every religious tradition, God is beyond human understanding.

But the Pope is God's emissary on earth, so...

Beheaded? Not offhand.

We just burned them at the stake instead. Or drowned them. Or sent them blankets with smallpox. Or fire bombed their places of worship.

Or lynched them.

Yeah but beheading is worse! ;)

The fear of Christians here is remarkable and dare I say verges near ... bigotry.

This is creepy. You guys are really comparing the Islamic terrorists to Christians in the United States? Think about that. I bet there are more than you realize among your acquaintances. Try to think of a Christian you met in school. Do you really think the only thing keeping her from mowing down the infidels with a machine gun is that it's against U.S. law?

I always thought Rover seemed off...

holy hyperbole, batman. He asked for examples of things like that happening in the US. We answered his question. No one is saying the evangelical next door is coming to kill us. But it's disingenuous to say no bad acts have ever been done in the name of Christendom, either. As previously said, Al Queda:Islam::KKK:Christianity

I was hoping they'd be taken alive. I wanted to see the guillotine come out of retirement for a command performance.
 
Re: Global War on Terror Version 6 - Perpetual Motion Machine

The Globe and Mail's Mark Mackinnon tells BBC Newshour that he met a Tunisian woman who was living next door to one of the Kouachi brothers.

"She had been concerned about her neighbours for quite some time, and described how she heard the brothers praying loudly through the walls. She thought they may be extremists so her husband broke in with the help of a plumber and discovered a cache of weapons. The brothers caught them, and forced them to promise not to tell the police."

Re: Global War on Terror Version 6 - Perpetual Motion Machine

I can't believe I'm reading this (ok, that's a lie). Kepler is right. Muslims, Christians, and Jews all pray to the same God. Just a different name.

You're also kidding yourself if you don't think there aren't radical Christians who would kill people who don't agree with them, if the government and society would look the other way. Even so, abortion clinics don't bomb themselves.
 
Re: Global War on Terror Version 6 - Perpetual Motion Machine

Serious question. Don't read too much into it.

When was the last abortion clinic bombing?
 
Re: Global War on Terror Version 6 - Perpetual Motion Machine

Some bad examples decades before if not longer is apples compared to oranges' recent event after recent event.

trix you don't comprehend irony.

Priceless, gfy with your latest completely irrelevant response to me.

Kepler, Hannity loves Maher of late. However, that channel is such a cesspool. BBC is great and CNN here is far more about reporting than FOX's pontificating and proselytizing.
