We always said the Muslims are coming. But guess what? We're already here- Tlaib

so we need to straighten our laws to keep religious laws from taking over our government? I am all for that... as long as it applies to ALL religions

 

What makes any religion an important part of any country?

 

and said people that chant "Blood and Soil, Jews will not replace us" are "fine people" .. don't forget one of them ran over an innocent women that day and killed her

 

Evidently, now we know why. Media Matters supplies them with their content. The media matters folks actually brag about the tractability of the media folks, naming names actually who are the folks (like Erik Wemple at the WAPO) through whom, they deliver their message. And of course, as a Soros funded and managed entity, clearly, we see the hallmarks of his socialist ideology front and center. Their mistake? Engaging directly in politics which is, well, illegal. And now that we have evidence of such, I would expect the DOJ and mr Barr to actively take on.

 

Oh.... you tipped over the ant hill now....

 

Except christianity evolved out of what you see some muslims doing.

I don't know of any radical christian denominations that want a religious war with islam, nor do I know of any christian groups that approach what is seen from radical islam.

It is absurd to try to compare christians, to muslims, when it comes to radicalism, today. You have to go way back in time to find christian acting like radical muslims.

Christianity reformed, islam not so much.

 

So. Many. Answers.

The US Constitution and Bill of Rights derives many of its political philosophies from Christianity (or at least the Christian ideals). Specific religions provide the underpinnings for communities, large and small, across the nation and bolster acts of empathy and compassion. The individuals who adhere to certain religions use those teachings as justifications for innumerable positive acts that they commit for their cities and states.

 

I would point out that the US constitution is a reflection of what is considered "common law", not "canon law". There is a considerable amount of energy directly creating an underlying privilege to devote yourself to whatever your conscience directs you in this country. Clearly, a non canon law trait. It is a correlation of convenience on your part to try masquerade the two as being one.

 

"Our" Muslims are Americans. They are part of the American fabric. I know several Muslims in the scientific, engineering, and academic field. That's why I don't run and hide under my bed when the anti-Muslin crowd starts their chants. Makes good fodder for the base though.

PS. I know tons of Jews and Israelis too. Same deal.

PPS. People that continually voice this crap need to shower and find steady employment.

 

most Christians and Muslims are good people, some Christians and Muslims to this day are bad people

many fanatical Christians want a war with Muslims, Bush thought God wanted us to go to war with Iraq

 

if republicans want stricter laws to prevent Biblical or Shari law from entering our government, I am all for it, let's keep religion out of our government

"Almighty God created the races white, black, yellow, malay and red, and he placed them on separate continents. And, but for the interference with his arrangement, there would be no cause for such marriage. The fact that he separated the races shows that he did not intend for the races to mix."

Because if a Muslim from Canada, or the UK, or Japan wanted to enter the country, nothing was stopping them. The ban was REGIONAL, not RELIGIOUS. I don't care what he said on the campaign trail. Trump blurted out a lot of stupid things. But there was NOTHING banning just Muslims. The entire ban was specifically targeting certain areas of terrorist activity, at the time. Are you still going to stick to what he said at first, vs what actually happened? By that logic, Obama is still a Homophobic bigot because he openly said marriage was only between a man and woman, up until about 2010. He changed his tune, but if you want to only go by what a guy says, we can have loads of fun with that.

 

No they are not an integral, vital or important element in the U.S. The are integral, vital and important element in completely dismantling secular democracy and classic liberalism. People like you are why a century from now, Asia will own the world and retain their culture. Western Europe will be just another Islamic backwater and America will be dismembered. Sociopaths who hate Western civilization at a pathological level, introduced a problem that did not previously exist.

No Islamic country would tolerate the mass immigration of an ideology which opposed theirs..... they would butcher them....

Asia is where my descendants will emigrate to (if the Asians are silly enough to let them in). It likely that the violence that is coming to the West will rival that which occurred in the 1940s.

 

words matter.... he called it a Muslim ban....

Obama said his religious views are marriage is a man and women... but his religious views do not trump the rights of Americans, thus he supports equal rights for LGBT folks too

we need to keep biblical law and sharia law out of our government

 

I was talking about what he originally wanted. I find it hilarious that constitutionalists fawn over the original intent of the Founders' intentions, but then ignore the original intent of the ban.

 

What he wanted was less of a chance for Muslim terrorists to enter country. And who could logically disagree, unless you're OK with terrorists blowing up coffee shops like in the ME? What other reason was there? To ban ALL Muslims? You weren't listening to his words if you thought he wanted to ban an entire religion. You might as well say he called ALL Mexicans rapists and murderers when he was specifically calling out the actual illegals who were rapists and murderers.

 

Nothing in our Constitution is tied to any particular religion.

While God is mentioned once in the Declaration of Independence, our laws are mostly based on English common law.

As for community and basic decency, those points are debatable. We see far too many crimes and cover ups all in the name of religion. Whether that be Christian's blowing up abortion clinics or Muslims running people down on a bike path, it's all the same.

 

Is he in our government? No. Big difference.

 

If we rewrote the Constitution to mirror the intent of Islamic law, she wouldn’t be in government, she wouldn’t have a job, and she probably wouldn’t even be alive for speaking against our way of life.

 

I would say it is not so much the religion as it is the dark side of human nature. Look at societies that did not reign in this part of human nature. Godless Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, etc...produced the largest body counts in history.

 

and Christian raised Hitler was one of the worst... but you also have the inquisitions, ect....

the truth is, religion doesn't make one good, good and bad people can be religious

if the child abuse in the church by preachers doesn't prove that to people... nothing will

 

Among Muslims there are few fanatics who want war such as ISIS and al-Qaeda. By contrast, there are many hate filled fanatical "Christians" who want war such as the Bush, Jerry Falwell, Pat Robertson types and the millions of Republicans who vote for or finance them. We see demonstrations of such fanaticism on this forum every day.

 

and ultra right wing Republican Michael Savage called for the extermination of 100 million Muslims - just imagine if an American Muslim said that about Christians

 

Christians do an even better job of proving theirs:

 

But no one tops the socialists.
