What else is new...While Muslims loves to kill their own, they also love to kill Jews, Chirsitans, Catholics & Buddists because they BELIEVE that Mohammad is the only TRUE fu*king god.

That's Quran for the Muslims TO KILL...TO KILL... TO KILL...

How many people have died in the name of god? Religion and the god myth have been the root source of killings for centuries. How many religions are there? How many gods? And the killings will continue.

No wonder Saddam had to put the smackdown on those people. They kill each other and they kill christians. They even had the archbishop of Iraq kidnapped and beheaded. Had I known then what I know now about the Iraqi people I would have never supported the invasion.

JESUS SAID

MATTHEW 10
22"You will be hated by all because of My name, but it is the one who has endured to the end who will be saved.

23"But whenever they persecute you in one city, flee to the next; for truly I say to you, you will not finish going through the cities of Israel until the Son of Man comes.

No doubt in my mind that Bush's invasion of Iraq has released the dogs of hell into that society.

It's now a thousand times worse for christians and women there. There was a reason why Sodam ruled with an iron fist.

Under Saddam, the christians enjoyed quite favorable social positions. Saddams main man tariq Aziz the no.2 man of Iraq and prime minister were christians.
I bet just like after Saddam's removal the old ethnic tensions resurfaced, it was only a mtter of time that suppressed ethnic groups would target the christians having privileged positions in Saddam's brutal regime.
LOL

Indeed I wonder what these dumb f*** warmongers albeit known as US evangelical christians or jeebus lovers in this country would think now, given that, they supported removal of Brutal Saddam by labelling that secular socialist dictator in whose brutal govt. christians formed an avant garde, as a muslim fanatic in contacts with Osama.
For these warmongering dumbfvcks albeit known as christians its a catch 22, they can't chide Saddam brutal regime without chiding its constituent pillars of which Iraqi christians formed a favourable part and against whom they supported a brutal invasion. And now when sh8 hits the fan and old remorse and scars resurface, let's see what defense these 2 face bigoted hyppocritical retards known as US evangelical Christians use.

The news media only consider catholics "Christians," the real born again Christians who are always slighted by the world, are the true persecuted ones. The devil targets the truth in any nation. All the reports about catholics being persecuted is simply smokescreens. The catholic church has been the greatest persecutor of the true Bible believing Christian throughout the ages. The so called "DEMOCRACY" that we are spreading throughout the Arab nations is to unite the Catholic and the Muslim in a one world government headed up by the Assyrian Antichrist and the Pope. Sinner friend your time to recieve Christ Jesus by faith is running out-Romans 10:9-13. By the way, Christians aren't enduring to the end (that reference in Mt.24 has to do with the Jew fleeing from the antichrist in the tribulation), we are enjoying throughout eternity the salvation wrought for us on Calvary's Cross.

Maybe that's why Republican former US Congressman Harold John "Hal" Daub of Omaha, Nebrfaska, took it upon himself to rape and torture them in Omaha during the Vietnam War?

Apparently, nobody cares. One Christian, who spews Jesus this and Jesus that met the man who is fighting Daub and became his neighbor.

The month the Christian, Rick Rodrigez of Home Sweet Home Reality in Omaha, moved, he yelled across the street to the neighbor who was violently attacked by Daub when the man was seven years old as was the man's mother (Google "Boycott Nebraska" for info) and yelled defiantly with his fist in the air "Go Hal Daub".

Now that's what US Christians are all about. Give them a donut and they will rewrite the Bible to include rape as a family value.

Daub is quite a piece of work.

Rodrigez is, too. But what can you expect from a drug dealer when a heroin pusher to children is running for office?

Billy, let meask you a simole question.What as a group have atheists ever done.And why caps for atheists, they are not a proper name or any such that caps are required.They are simply put ,people that have never believed in a deity or religious order of any kind.Other than a few college sororaties orwannabes they have never functioned as a group for any purpose in any way.Their main trait in common to all is the mud slinging at something they know nothing about.Religion for it's own sake is a powerfull and destructive force in the world at large.cont.

This is inaccurate - there are no muslim extremists - the only difference in a muslim and a muslim extremist is that the muslim has not killed anyone YET! They BELIEVE that they are supposed to kill all of us who are not muslims - especially Christians and Jews. Theirs is a religion of hate and death - Christianity is a religion of love and life. THEY are the evil ones and they cross the line freedom of religion in the US.......go ahead, muslims - argue with the FACTS!

Being a Christian is in following the teachings of Christ: Love God above all else and love your neighbor as yourself. It's that 2nd part we have so much trouble with, whatever our "religion."

I saw a debate between and athiest and a christian live in person, and the athiest used really big words to make very small points, which really weren't points at all. The athiest wanted to debate the "morality" of God. How can you debate the morality of God when you have no faith or belief that there is a God? This was a question that the Christian asked. I wasn't biased to either side of this debate, was just curious as to what would be said. But in the end the christian said something i will never forget. "I'll tell you what, if your right and there is no God and all of this is just bogus and were all just here. Then you and I will never know who won this debate, and theoretically if were all just here it really doesn't matter. But if I'm right, if I am right on this, I will know and you will know who won this debate," He also went on to say. "If im wrong well I just die and thats it. If im right, i live in eternity."

cont.Organized religion is indeed cruel and inhumane when it runs amock disrepecting it's own charters and precepts.The horrors of the Islamic extremists are matched by the conquistadores and the now mythic gods of geek and roman gods routinely decimated anyone standing in their way or ambitions.The two most pacifistic religions are known as Buddisim and Hindu.Even they had select military groups that were defenders of their religions peace,Kung-Fu monks and followers of Shiva rivaled the worlds best military elite,but they were not expansionist by nature.During the Alexandrian wars the oeace loving Hindu came together to repel the invasion of savages as they referred to the westerners of that time.My point here is that all religions are to some degree capable of violent nature and so are atheists, mostly pecuniary gain is their impetus due in part to their lack of religion.cont.

They didn't like the good old USA when we were there and I'm wonderin how good they like us now. We're not there anymore to take all the heat and all the blame for everything. I feel for them, but you know, they practically showed us to the door and asked us to leave.

cont.No I'm not bashing atheists Lord knows I was one ,for30+ yrs. then I did the best thing I'v ever done.I set uot to prove their is no such thing as GODIdid have sense enough to know if you are going to expose a fake you must know the facts of deceit before you can do so. Well this required that I study the enemies strength and weakness, I did so with a gusto for years,in my middle 40s thje boomerang got me.Just the reverse happened,I WAS NOT taught by any denomination. The knowledge I learned came from the Word of GOD! Not by people claiming to be his workers, even though I have in the ensueing years have met others at peace with Him! Try it you might like it , you have nothing to lose, it is a wonderfulpiece of literature at the very least. Shakespear nor Hawthorne or others can compare to it. PEACE!

The main motivator for "islamic extremism" is sharia law.
Consider this--
If you're a 13-30 yr old male whose hardly ever allowed to even so much as look at a woman outside the immediate family......so you sit in coffee shops all day watching semi-naked girls advertise stuff you cant buy on the satellite TV......
Now wouldnt you be ready willing and able to blow yourself up just to stop the torment????
