To realize how bad an idea it is; make believe there is no Geo Bush and the President is Bill Clinton and he invites Muslims to do this in the White House.

OK, I’ve done that and concluded the following; It’s a matter of motives. If it were Klynton, I would be suspicious and agree with you that it is a bad idea. However, W has the good of the country at heart. He knows bin Laden tried to convince the Muslim world that America is its enemy. It is up to our leader, GeorgeW. Bush to demonstrate that that is a lie. No one can do it better than he can.

I dare W to go and pray openly in Saudi Arabia.

All the more reason to be proud of him for showing the world that unlike these nations, U.S. practices the tolerance and freedom of religion it promises to all who come here.

Unfortunately some on this board seem to want us to become an intolerant dictatorial religious theocracy, just like the Muslim nations they condemn. This is of course hypocrisy. Bush is bigger than that.

Islam and democracy dont mix. The Koran doesnt mix with anything. In Iran every week millions in the mosques yell death to America.

In Iran, where they have been under fundamentalist Islamic Gov't for many years...they are now having problems with repeated pro-American, pro-western demonstrations on a large scale.

I can see it clearly, the muslim governmental heads hold out their hands for 'aid' money while the populace of those nations chant death to America.

"the White House and State Department wanted to show sensitivity to the importance of Ramadan."

Up From Multiculturalism


PASTOR TELLS GOD ON LEGISLATURE
Quoted from:
Paul Harvey News
Citizen Vol.18 No.8 p.2
Feb 21,1996

Man, oh man! They won't invite Pastor Joe to the Kansas State Legistature again!
They invited Pastor Joe Wright of Wichita's Central Christian Church to deliver the invocation -and he told God on them!
Now, God knows what they've been up to!
No sooner had their guest chaplain concluded his prayer than three Democrats on the state legislature were on their feet at microphoned protesting, "He can't talk like that about us!" Rep. Delbert Gross considered the invocation gross, calling it, "divisive, sanctimonious" and "overbearing."
Rep. David Haley called it "blasphemous and ignorant."
Rep. Sabrina Standifer echoed the indignation.
What in the world did Pastor Joe say in Topeka that incited the righteous wrath of three Democrats from Hays and Kansas City?
I've secure the entire text on the invocation so you can evaluate it yourself:
"Heavenly Father, we come before you today to ask Your forgiveness and to seek Your direction and guidance.
"We know Your word says, 'Wo unto thoes who call evil good,' but that is exactly what we have done. We have lost our spiritual equalibrium and inverted our values.
"We confess that we have rediculed the absolute truth of Your word in the name of moral pluralism.
"We have worshipped other gods and called it 'multiculturism.'
"We have endorsed perversion and called it 'alternative lifestyle.'
"We have exploited the poor and called it a 'lottery.'
"We have neglected the needy and called it 'self-preservation.'
"We have rewarded laziness and called it 'welfare.'
"In the name of 'choice,' we have killed our unborn.
"in the name of 'right to life,' we have killed abortionists.
"We have neglected to discipline our children and called it 'building esteem.'
"We have abused power and called it 'political savvy.'
"We've coveted our neighbors' possesions and called it 'taxes.'
"We've polluted the air with profanity and pornography and called it 'freedom of expression.'
"We've ridiculed the time-honored values of our forefathers and called it 'enlightenment.'
"Search us, oh God and know our hearts today. Try us, and show us any wickedness in us. Cleanse us from every sin, and set us free.
"Guide and bless these men and women who have been sent here by the people of Kansas and who have been ordained by You to govern this great state.
"Grant them Your wisdom to rule, and may their decisions direct us to the center of Your will.
"I ask it in the name of your son, the living savior, Jesus Christ, Amen."

A kinder, gentler, and compassionate abomination.
