Evidently the idiots have now taken over FreeRepublic...
Nah, the problem is that a bunch of good FReepers are still licking their wounds over failed primaries, so the inmates are running the asylum.
Idiot? Moi?
I just posted this thread to see some FR debate and some pros and cons about this proposed amendment.
I hope that you are not being too liberal in throwing around the label idiot...
Do read the Koran, take the time to become informed about the history of Islam, then perhaps consider the wisdom of that amendment proposition.
For a start, here’s Winston Churchill on Islam:
Sir Winston Churchill (The River War, first edition, Vol. II, pages 248-50 (London: Longmans, Green | 1899
“How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism[72 virgins, I’m assuming] deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity.
The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property, either as a child, a wife, or a concubine, must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men. Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities - but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilization of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilization of ancient Rome.”
If you still think Islam is a real religion, rather than an organizational plan for desert thieves, I have but one question for you to ask of the women in your life - “Got burhka”?
