But Mel Gibson has to apologize
Is this clown for real?
The closest thing to an American Taliban I can think of --- and it's more humorous than threatening --- is the PC police!
Nope. Tristan is a hyper hysteric drama queen fully of patetically turgid prose and a repressed desire to write Gay ponography novels pretending to be a "Jounralist". Tristy here is merely lashing out at those who he fantasies are causing him to have to stay in the closet.
Which government is that? History isn't exactly my thing but I don't ever recall any nation being a *Christian Theocracy*.
Can lead to this.....
I would love for this author to go live in Iran and then come back and tell me about theocracy and the like. He could not even write what he has wrote in Iran. Much less in Afghanistan when it was ruled by the Taliban.
Wow. It's hard to believe that so many stupid arguments can be strung together and printed in a newspaper somewhere.
The real Taliban shot women in the head for reading, fired cannons at Buddhist statues, enslaved a population with seventh century ideology, and killed and jailed anyone with an opposing viewpoint.
Our "Taliban" talked loud and bragged about their religion. Our "Taliban" said they'd fight to defend their culture and listed allies in their fight.
That's quite some comparison. Sounds like two peas in a pod. </sarcasm>
The journey springs from a promise Tristam made to himself when he became an American citizen in 1986 at age 22. He had emigrated to the U.S. in 1979, his family having escaped the Lebanese civil war. In introducing this series, he wrote: "I want to journey out from my past into the land I have chosen to be mine and immerse myself in its multi-meridian moods."
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
His truth is marching on.
I have seen Him in the watch-fires of a hundred circling camps
They have builded Him an altar in the evening dews and damps
I can read His righteous sentence by the dim and flaring lamps
His day is marching on.
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah! Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
His truth is marching on.
I have read a fiery gospel writ in burnish`d rows of steel,
"As ye deal with my contemners, So with you my grace shall deal;"
Let the Hero, born of woman, crush the serpent with his heel
Since God is marching on.
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
His truth is marching on.
He has sounded forth the trumpet that shall never call retreat
He is sifting out the hearts of men before His judgment-seat
Oh, be swift, my soul, to answer Him! be jubilant, my feet!
Our God is marching on.
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
His truth is marching on.
In the beauty of the lilies Christ was born across the sea,
With a glory in His bosom that transfigures you and me:
As He died to make men holy, let us die to make men free, While God is marching on.
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
His truth is marching on.
From 1998...
THE MASSACRE IN MAZAR-I SHARIF
Funny... I don't see the resemblance.
Yes, Christian ideology has ALWAYS gotten in the way of the US becoming a great nation. In fact, if it weren't for those meddling evangelicals, we might even be the greatest superpower in the world, upholding human and civil rights, giving billions to those less fortunate, spreading democracy to the world, defeating communism and...uh...fascism...and....um.....oh, wait......never mind.
His name is Pierre!!! LOL!!!
Perhaps Pierre would care to prove his point. My suggestion is that he make an image of Mohamhead and place it in a jar of urine. Then he can take his creation on a tour of the mideast (or Detroit) where he can proudly display his work and get actual face to face feedback from the folks.
The difference between the Muslim countries and the USA is that we can tell our religious nuts to go jump off a cliff if we want to.
Note the French name of the author. What a bunch of written diahhrea that was. I'm dumber for having even read the first sentence of it, which was as far as I got before I felt brain cells draining out of my head faster than this Frog writer can write a tortured and over-wrought metaphor.
What amazes me is that this guy makes a living at this.
All this idiot Tristram has to do is show all the deaths that Christians have caused in the last one hundred years in the name of Christianity as opposed to radical Islam. What religion flies airplanes into office buildings and kidnaps and kills journalists, workers, and other innocent civilians? Mr. Tristram, you are an extreme dope.
