Hello P-Marlowe,
1) Do you think he was talking about Muslims who are instructed in their Qur’an to deliberately lie to be in a position to kill? When you Google for “Taqiyya” you get results like this: http://www.islam-watch.org/Warner/Taqiyya-Islamic-Principle-Lying-for-Allah.htm
2) Would you rather “legitimately cry foul” or would you rather negotiate for reciprocity once you have leverage? Right now, we have no leverage, and Christianity is suppressed there, and Islam is promoted here, and the Muslims think we are stupid, and actively exploit this oversight. Why would they voluntarily stop oppressing Christians and Jews sometime in the future if they have not until now?
3) John Adams said, “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” Do you think he was talking about Muslims who are instructed in their Qur’an to deliberately lie to be in a position to kill as commanded in the Qur’an?
4) According to this article http://www.dailymail.co.uk/debate/article-1222977/MELANIE-PHILLIPS-The-outrageous-truth-slips-Labour-cynically-plotted-transform-entire-make-Britain-telling-us.html the British government deliberately wanted to transform England into a multicultural society. If it is happening there, don’t you think it is at least possible the same deliberate sabotage is happening here?
5) Have you seen this article? http://obambi.wordpress.com/2008/07/25/the-muslim-takeover-of-america/ It describes how Muslim evil behavior exponentially increases against their linear increase in population. What do you think of them? Given we have done nothing so far, and the situation continues to worsen, how do we effectively respond beyond “legitimately cry foul” which we do, but has had zero *results* so far?

Hopefully you will stay and lend us your insight.

We don't do that stuff anymore, but nevertheless we can still be Christians and good Americans and believe that the death penalty for those offenses would still be just.
But we don't practice that system of justice in America, except for the Murder part and instead we founded our republic on the principle that all men are entitled to the right to believe as they choose, however we also limit the rights of people to practice certain religious rituals because they trample on the rights of others, such as killing witches and killing your children when they show you disrespect.
I would be more than willing to keep anyone out of this country that does not believe in Religious Liberty or that is not prepared to support and defend the Constitution of the United States. Although I suspect it is a pipe dream, I would hope that most Muslims in America are not here to destroy our nation, but to enjoy the blessings of Liberty that were won by the blood of patriots.
For this reason I could not sanction any law which would prohibit any religion from building a place of worship subject to the same zoning restrictions that all other religions are subject to.
