So, the author of this expects my religion to change so that it doesn’t offend anyone in the entire world? I find that offensive.
God never changes, he is what he is. It is stated in the Bible that it is better to be hot or cold - but never lukewarm. A politically correct religion is a tepid, room-temperature religion, just the thing that God abhors.
What a bunch of drivel!
This “Alan Hurwitz” attempts to identify “discrimination” as a cause of islamic terrorism, and even goes so far as to say that Americans have “trouble distinguishing religious scholars from religious fanatics.”
Hey Hurwitz, here’s a clue for you: the “religious fanatics” are the ones carrying bombs around, or rather, having children do their bomb-carrying for them.
Sheeesh; what a fool.
I do get so tired of this elderly canard.
Jesus was not an "outsider" in Judaism. He was a Jew of Jews.
He was not particularly poor, as he had been a highly skilled artisan prior to taking up his ministry, and afterwards was supported by gifts from supporters.
His robe was the normal wear of Jews of his day, as were his long hair and beard.
Jesus disappeared into a crowd, he was not an oddly-dressed weirdo.
“2.) Can President Bush not see the irony of his Sisiphisian mission to help Iraq create a secular-driven society, over which no one religion dominates, while obsessively promoting a Christian caliphate, (oops, I mean diocese) in these United States?”
(Similar fools make similar claims, that the Bush regime is a new Spanish Inquisition, but they rarely bother to provide any proof. Are they truly mad with Bush-hatred?)
3.) How do leaders of Islam, a great world religion over many centuries, permit its public face to be hijacked by a relatively small band of fanatics?
(Is it because the relatively small band of fanatics are the true leaders of Islam?)
