Islam needs to be banned in the US and treated as a criminal enterprise.

But, but, Islam is one of the three great Abrahamaic Faiths! They are our spiritual cousins! They revere Jesus as a prophet... how could this be?!

Pakistan leaders are afraid of the word, “Jesus.” Ditto all of Islam. And so is Satan and all his many minions.

That is because there is great power in the word, “Jesus.”

They’re just following the lead of hundreds of school districts in this country.

I wonder what cell phone companies are doing business in Pakistan, and support this action? I know as a Christian, I’d pay a little more to a company which has a backbone to ensure freedom for all.

It's only natural for them to shy away from the Light.

Why do the Muslims have to remain so damn backwards, and be such a plague of ignorance on the world? And why do they insist on leaving their hellhole countries, and immediately start turning their new and better surroundings into the same damn hellholes they escaped?

"Islam needs to be banned in the US and treated as a criminal enterprise.

In Christ's name. Amen.

Islam is not just a quasi religion, it is a political party....more of a dictatorship with deadly consequences if not obeyed...it is a criminal enterprise and American Muslims will not come forward and denounce it...they can't if they want to live. America is no place for this home of bogus and oppressive laws.

Jesus Rivera is OK. Jesus Christ is forbidden.

I’ve wondered the same thing about liberals for some time.

Unfortunately, text message filtering is very easy for telcom companies to do and there are well educated Paki engineers willing to make them do it.
