Anyone remember the news story from Starship Troopers that talks about the Mormon settlers that were massacred when the tried to settle in bug terroritory?

Bet they thought the bugs weren’t inherently violent either.

There is faith in all religions....even Atheism.....but some beliefs just become so absurd or offer role models which are so abhorrent-—it should be dumped, if you want a rational “civil” and free society.

It is why Marxists target Judeo-Christian Ethics-—which is the basis of any free and most rational society. Feminists, homosexuals and ACLU are out to destroy the institutions which make freedom possible. Virtue is necessary in free societies.

"Islam is not inherently violent."

And bears don't inherently defecate in the woods.

No, Romney is saying islam is not an inherently violent faith and you are giving his a pass because he is running for president? That is just nuts. Romney is a mormon, a fool and a liar, are you going to give him a pss on those as well?

Just finish reading the first two chapters of CAN MITT ROMNEY SERVE TWO MASTERS? on the Amazon site. Lots of history/background about the faith.

By that logic, most of the violent criminals in prison are not “inherently violent”, because only a small fraction of their time was spent committing violent crimes.

Yes, presidential candidates have to say things differently that other people. You are a bigot against Mormons too?

Mitt Romney is not an inherently intelligent man.

(or he is a common garden variety liar)

If "Jihadism Is not part of Islam," than the Koran must not be part of Islam.

From "Terrorist actions and Koran teaching" by Jesse Sellers (Link):

"Apologists for Islam often insist that of the two struggles, the inner jihad is the primary {as opposed to physical/war}. Yet, of the 36 times the word jihad appears in the Koran, all but 4 of these references is to the external and physical."
[Which also destroys the fall back positions of claiming Jihad is about inner struggle.]

UPDATE: Bachmann and Santorum are best on this issue.

Actually, Rep. Allen West is the best that I have heard on the issue.
