As a moderate Muslim, may I explain this to you right-wing Infidels, in a nice way?

You see there is no Quranic reason for us Moderate Muslims to kill, enslave, or convert you Allah-damned Infidels. Stop for a moment to consider the following, my Infidel friends:

(1.) Dead, you can pay no further dhimmi As Allah as written through his Prophet Mohammed, (May Peace Be Upon Him) "Why settle for a couple of mutton sandwiches, when you can weave many coats, blankets and sweaters by shearing the sheep over the years?"

(2.) Since you Infidels will be our slaves in Paradise for all Eternity, why rush the process, when so much earthly good can be gotten out of you?

(3.) Dead Infidels buy no oil.

(4.)Although I have patiently explained why one of us Moderate Muslims is a Good Infidel's Best Friend, it is incumbent upon us friendly-type Moderate Muslims to support the Jihad of our more energetic brothers who may very well want to slaughter you Infidels. For such it is written, by the above-noted Muhammed, (May Peace Be Upon Him). That's why we give them money, logistic support, and occasionally send over the more dim-witted of our offspring for suicide bombing missions.

I hope I have been able to clear this up for you Infidels. And I really do appreciate living in your society and making the big money in my profession. However, as a Moderate Muslim, I must point out that your women must follow our customs and cover themselves in public, you must follow Sharia Law in your courts, honor Muslim traditions of polygamy, etc. etc. It is for your own good that I urge all Infidels to submit to the Will of Allah, the All Wise, and All Merciful.

We are Moderate Muslims now, but our patience is not unlimited. Capeesh? (as you infidels say)

Note: this map is probably TEN YEARS OLD. Give that some thought. Probably should multiply each count BY TWENTY to get a more up to date picture.

According to a newspaper report shortly after 9/11, our local mosque was founded by a “moderate” group, only to be taken over by a radical group. There were reports of arrests of mosque members after 9/11, tied to the Holyland Foundation, funneling so-called charitable contributions to their compatriots overseas. So—even if you consider your local mosque “moderate”, that doesn’t mean they will remain that way.

I’ve been saying for ages Islam needs a HUGH and SERIES reformation. The items you posted would go a long way...I’d add that the message is those who don’t ‘moderate’ are actually NOT legitimate Muslims, but are instead part of a militaristic/political/economic non-sanctioned activist group and are undeserving of the protections and courtesies due ‘legitimate’ religious faiths. One more thing to add: any who attempt to use a place of worship or innocent civilians also are shunned from their faith...

Put the onus right back on the nutters and those who say they aren’t.

Leave the gentiles and jews out of their internal schism.

Amen.

One of the problems is the nutty factions hide behind the religion. As each Mosque is independent of an over-arching hierarchy, unlike the Catholic Pope, each nutty Imam can come up with his own interpretation of the Qur’an and sanction nutty actions at will.

Houston, we have a problem.

Folks don’t speak up as they’ve not the ‘right’ and the nuts aren’t slapped down by a central authority. To make it worse, the reprisals for no-nutter compliance is quite severe. One might go all to pieces over it.

When the Iranian Revolution was taking hold few spoke out. A friend looked at me with astonishment when I asked. She said, “You, and possibly, your family disappear!!!’ Very hard for folks raised in Yankee society to comprehend the daily injustice and lack of rights.

Maybe, in part, ‘nice’ lefties have such a hard time figuring out that most folks don’t want to go for the kooky stuff, but daren’t speak out...so the lefty groups speak out in support of their ‘choices’. Ha!

I suspect he was sincere. All the knuckledraggery must be left behind, in order for Islam to be compatible with our society.

Oh, that map is probably very old. The numbers are quite low. I suspect that hundreds more m00sques have sprung up since then.

Islam is just a a big flow chart with one destination. All processes have the same ultimate goal. It's just the efficiency of getting there.

Two peaceful and one radical. Also one “community” that has sprung up in the outback that has some weird stuff going on. I am trying to arrange a visit by he Sheriff.

I sent the letter to a blogger named Amy Alkon (the Advice Goddess), who has rigorously studied the Quran and Hadith, and this is what she had to say about it:

"Thanks so much -- unfortunately, there's some taquiyya in here (lying in service of Islam). It is not Sharia but the Quran that advocates much of this and the Hadith (words and traditions of Mohammed and those close to him) that advocates the rest. Sharia merely carries that stuff out."

"Thanks so much -- unfortunately, there's some taquiyya in here (lying in service of Islam). [...]

Now I'm really confused.

Taquiyya is Shi'ite. The 9/11 hijackers were Sunni. I thought the builders of this community center were Sufi.

I admit that I haven't paid the least bit of attention to this issue with so many others I've been fighting.
