I guess beheading Christians and Jews does bring them peace in a way, but it isn't the method most Christians and Jews would select I don't think!
Correction .... your flearidden decendants will learn of me.......
"You are an infidel. You must be absorbed!"
Damn, another targeting opportunity missed!
Oh, I want to go to war with them. I'd like to see a Crusade against all muslim countries to free the Christians who are forced to live in terror within their boundaries. "Kill them all, the Lord will know His own!" Abbot of Citeaux
No, they would just then understand that they had no say or sway in the matter.
Maybe we should bring back crucifiction as a punishment for muslims who rate the death penalty .... just to add a little insult to injury.
I wonder .... would the Catholics and their nations truly go to war with Islam if the Pope was murdered by islamic terrorists?
damn..you're right!
Why can't we insult the Prophet Muhamed? In a free society everything is insulted including men, women, McDonalds, religion, atheism, Presidents, football, sex, cell phones....everything is insulted.
This is called free speech and it leads to open debate, discussion, good jokes, and ultimately an orderly society. Most rhetoric gets forgotten. However some of the buzz turns in to true politcal discourse. Ultimately, elections judge the validity of the topics of the day. If your position is a loser in the publics eye, it's not the publics fault. It's you and your positions fault.
This is the way most people want to live and live.....It's called freedom. So, if your prophet can't withstand a little bit of insult, perhaps you need a new prophet or a new argumentative technique. More violence is what you need less of. You see, the violence you choose in the place of reasoned discourse only weakens your argument in the eyes of intelligent and thoughtful people.
Green Berets will take care of their followers....
The Muslims and the Communists make the same claim. What puts the lie to it is that when you look at the world, it is clear that the major causes of poverty, death and disease are Islam and Marxism.
Pakistan demanded the removal of Pope Benedict XVI for making what they called "insulting remarks" against Islam. Benedict "should be removed from his position immediately for encouraging war and fanning hostility between various faiths" and "making insulting remarks" against Islam,
United States demans the removal of Muhammed for making "insulting remarks" against Christianity. Muhammed "should be removed from his position immediately for encouraging war and fanning hostility between various faiths" and "making insulting remarks" against anything NOT ilamofacist.
Which one fits best?
How can you do anything to further insult Islam - the "religion" and its prophet are a joke.
Muhammad is burning in an especially vile part of hell along with the likes of Hitler and Stalin.
Sorry, fellows you don't get to vote for or against the Pope you are not even Catholics. Maybe you would like to convert to Catholicism? Do you prefer the sword or water baptism?
Even if you ARE Catholic, your chances of ever "voting for a Pope" are essentially zero. As far as removal of a Pope against his will, I don't even know what Canon Law states (if anything), but it would almost certainly have to be on the order of extreme heresy or blasphemy.
There are no truly "Catholic nations" left in the world, except for the Philippines; but even they are being tested and terrorized by islam. Still, there over one billion Catholics in the world who would be very angry if the jihadists murdered, (or even harmed) the Pope. I don't think the world's Protestants would remain calm after such an assasination either. Such an abominable act of pure, vile hatred by islam would symbolize to Christians all over the world what would be awaiting the rest of us if we failed to respond with massive force. I would venture to say that if the Pope were to be assassinated by a radical muslim, in the name of jihad, that would likely set off an explosive chain of events around the world that would make the islamic barbarians wish they were never born. In other words, WWIII would be unleashed.
