The Islamic Society of North America regional conference,

Religion of Peace has a chance to denounce terrorists among them. Let's see what happens.

[Capitalist Eric]

Religion of Peace has a chance to denounce terrorists among them.

Silence in the face of terrorism, must be construed as
1. acceptance
2. Approval, or
3. BOTH.

I am quite certain there will either be silence or some bizarre form of justification for Islamic terrorism...

Which puts us back at the three choices.

Such a forum will change nobody's mind- only give the pro-terrorist nitwits a chance for face-time on a camera, thinking people will be stupid enough to believe their "religion of peace" BS.

Islam is a religion of DEATH.

[abclily]

Islam is a religion of ignorance, torture, terror, and murder.

[ImaGraftedBranch]

If there were a better representative for the "Emporer" in "The Emporer is wearing no clothes," then I haven't seen it.

It is amazing that Islam walks around with this big, naked problem called TERRORISM hung around its neck, yet thinks it is pure and clean.

Phttoooey. Islam is all about terrorism. It is not compatible with civilized society.

This isn't going to be a conference, it's going to be an session of propaganda and proselytizing

[Cicero]

His classes on the life of the Prophet Muhammad, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him

His teacher was none other than his father, the late great Imam of the Grand Umayyad mosque of Damascus, Sheikh Ibrahim al Yaqoubi, May Allah have mercy on him.

Can you imagine the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle reporting a conference of Christian scholars with this kind of assiduous respect for religion?

This may possibly be a genuine conference on peace and justice. If so, I'l be very pleased to hear it. But most academic specialists in Islam in America seem to be in sympathy with the terrorists.

[AngrySpud]

Justice, freedom, and peace?

True Islam doesn't embrace these three. Only faux Islam Lite.

[RIGHT IN SEATTLE]

I used to live in Rochester.

It is a Liberal stronghold and hometown for Louse Slaughter. A Democrat Congresscreep!

[Bon mots]

Sounds like a target rich environment. But so far, it's only been the Muslims shooting us. Too bad we aren't shooting back.

[goodnesswins]

You know, it would be interesting as a woman to dress up in a burqua and go to this "conference."

[fjsva]

I'm surprised it's at RIT. I went to college there and it's pretty much a technical/engineering school. The College of Liberal Arts existed just to round out the technical degree.

Seems like University of Rochester would be a more likely sponsor.

[TLBSHOW]

Sponsored by the Council on American Islamic Relations?

The link to the conference has a scrolling marquee: "Islam: a Religion of Justice, Freedom and Peace". This guy (from California) says so.

Imam Zaid Shakir: another California boy

[PBRSTREETGANG]

“Islam: A Religion of Justice, Freedom and Peace,”

Wow! This Islam sounds spectacular! Where do I sign up?

[LurkedLongEnough]

Your post ANYBODY FOR A JUDEO-CHRISTIAN-ISLAMIC AMERICA? -- Still More Idiocy From CAIR! may be interesting to others on this thread.

[LurkedLongEnough]

The conference will tell you how. To sign up, go to Welcome to the ISNA Regional Conference website

And don't forget:

"Please make request at the registration desk on the day of conference to register for the Matrimonial Connection. It will provide for an excellent opportunity for parents who are looking for a bride or groom for their children. You will be able to meet others, exchange information..."

I challenge all Freepers in the area to turn up at this event and ask the really hard questions- the question that many here on FR want the answers to.
