Things have come to a pretty pass when you can't even trust your Teddy Bear. Life isn't worth living anymore. Gooodbye, cruel world.

NO AID TO SUDAN! We could cut our defict down by CUTTING ALL aid to any MUSLIM COUNTRIES! SAUDI ARABIA being the #1 host to Wahabi Terrorist training schools....
35 threads and still no war.
Those demonstrating in the streets of Darfur ARE the moderate islamic arabs.
I'm not. OTOH, I do live fairly near San Fransisco...
You said — “Islam is a mental illness. Don’t expect anything other than irrationality from these people.”
Well, I don’t agree that it’s a mental illness, as that lessens the realization (on the part of the “Western world”) of the actual nature of their “thinking” in regards to their religion and how they are simply doing what is “fundamental” and natural and required in their own “worldview”.
It’s not a mental illness *at all*. It’s a “worldview” that differs from ours. One has to realize that.
NOW, having said that — I must say that the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob says that since He is the One and Only and True Creator God of the universe, that means that those people are following a “false god” — but so are a lot of other people in the world following a false god. How about Hindus (and their thousands and perhaps millions of false gods). That doesn’t make them insane — but it does mean that they are rejecting the One True Creator God of the universe, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
And that’s the “deception of Satan” as he’s been described in God’s word. So, while they may be “deceived” (yet not “insane”), and still in their sins — they are following their own religion and are not what one would call insane (i.e., mentally ill) at all.
There are people who might call Christians “mentally ill” for maintaining the truth of the virgin birth of Jesus Christ, in complete contradiction to all we know of reproduction in a woman and the fact that it has never happened elsewhere at any time in the history of mankind.
And then, there are people who might call Christians “mentally ill” for maintaining the truth of the matter that once one has died and completely disintegrated in the ground, that at a specific future time, they will be resurrected, in bodily form, once again, having the same character and being that they’ve had all along, having never ceased existing all this time that their body completely disintegrated in the grave.
Anyone who does not believe in and/or follow the Messiah of Israel and adhere to the Word of God (as He has given us) is deceived, to be sure — but they are not necessarily insane or mentally ill (although there do exist mentally ill and insane people in this world). So, I’m sorry — your reference to them being insane is simply an ignorant statement and not one that reflects reality.

Can’t.., can’t.., can’t we all get along?

No comment — it would only lead to bloodshed.
LOL!
Well, thank you for your generosity in correcting my thinking. I feel better already.
The religion of peace strikes again.
I don’t know how many of you have heard about this news report which happened a few years ago, but here is a link to the story. It is about the beheading of three young Christian girls in Indonesia. These young girls were walking to school when they were attacked and beheaded by muslims who then wrapped the girls’ heads in plastic and threw them into their village.
This article also has a photo of the fourth girl who escaped the attack and bears a huge machete scar on her face. Everyone in the western world needs to see this. Please pass this on to other forums.
