I know that makes you feel good. You just have to question why it does.
It isn't Christ-centered. And if it isn't Christ-centered, you are fooling yourself.

I wish I could give you the benefit of the doubt, but you are just too eager to join with the spirit of the air, the broad and spacious path and not at all inclined to take the narrow and cramped path.
America amazingly just dropped...no longer sanctions Burma. You wonder how much of this sort of thing has contributed to America's wealth over it's lifetime. A good counter to those who believe America is God's favored nation.
Even if every last thing they said was correct, they wouldn't have to go out of their way to cause intentional and avoidable grief at a funeral. That doesn't further their putative cause nor does it enhance God's reputation, the primary thing, 'thy name be sanctified', first thing.
My personal theory is that their leader is consciously working against Christ and christianity.
Of course calling Westboro Baptist representational of all Christians is also a stretch. That was just my point, because the guy you alluded to in 56 , a "Grand Ayatollah", is inferred to represent Muslims. You didn't add that the guy appears to be affiliated with some Syrian faction, but it’s unclear exactly which one, and has had his clashes with other Grand Ayatollahs.
Can you point out anywhere at all, your link or otherwise, where he actually declared that all Christian women may be raped? Or were you possibly doing a bit of stretching yourself?
I did not state that every Islamic expert agrees in every situation all christian women are fair game, however in reality their only objection is usually as to what stage of islamic takeover the area happens to be. None of them can truthfully deny that the koran encourages rape as a tool of subjugation and conversion.

In reality? You mean current reality as in 2012? That's what using the present tense verb "is" implies. How low do you plan to go in making Muslims appear sub-human? Not that you've left much room.
A new wave of Iraqi Christians has fled to northern Iraq or abroad amid a campaign of violence against them and growing fear that the country’s security forces are unable or, more ominously, unwilling to protect them.
Those who fled the latest violence — many of them in a panicked rush, with only the possessions they could pack in cars — warned that the new violence presages the demise of the faith in Iraq. Several evoked the mass departure of Iraq’s Jews after the founding of the state of Israel in 1948.
“It’s exactly what happened to the Jews,” said Nassir Sharhoom, 47, who fled last month to the Kurdish capital, Erbil, with his family from Dora, a once mixed neighborhood in Baghdad. “They want us all to go.”
This is your proof muslims are moderate now days and christians are safe around them...Iraq, and the tiny little enclave in that country they don't feel like they will wake up dead every morning?

As a radical Christian, I realize you feel it's your duty to expose radical Muslims and provide blanket condemnations that fan the flames of hatred and mistrust. I'll be the first to admit that the radical elements of Islam are making your job pretty easy these days.
As someone who has a hope for a more peaceful world for my children, I'm compelled to point out the few areas where Muslims and Christians coincide in relative peace; where tolerance is considered honorable instead of blasphemous. Our friend Nerveclinic would be a better candidate for this role than me, as he has displayed over the past 5 or so years he's lived in the Muslim world.
There is no such thing as a radical christian. Once you get to genuine the needle stops moving. You have no more to fear from me than the Romans did from Jesus in the garden of Gethsemenane. The attempts to conflate christians with muslims is unfair an accusation as anything the devil has ever done.
What you won't admit to is that really scary and violent muslims are doing exactly what the koran tells them to do. There is no 'live by the sword, die by the sword, be peaceable with all men, let your reasonableness be known to all men, here, let me put your ear back on' moment in the koran. There are only 'slay the unbelievers in the name of allah the merciful' moments in the koran.
And frankly the really scary part is as soon as the MB have consolidated the power and opportunity you've given them, they are going to go to all those moderate muslims you are counting on, and give them a choice, 'join us in jihad or die'. At that point they will be as moderate and safe as a stoner in Viet Nam with a peace sign on his helmet and a machinegun pointed at the other side.
No such thing as a radical Christian? What you will never understand is that based on your posts in thread after thread, you are what 99.9% of society would actually define as radical. Just as the people in Westboro Baptist feel THEY are all knowing of the truth, you feel that you and the very few like you are the only ones.
I'd bet that everyone who reads this site know many who are not only conservative, but very conservative - and none of them are as far out there as you are.
You come across as not only radical, but intolerant and hateful. Do you not realize this?
Satan has turned the world's moral view upside down. Anyone recognising and pointing out evil is labeled judgemental and a hater. Sorry, it is necessary to hate evil to avoid it's temptation.
The Sandy Hook shooter did not hate the evil he was tempted to do enuff.
Reason 2. People who intend to turn the world against christianity conflate us with muslims.
And frankly all you guys seething at me and calling me a racist every other moment, [me in my perfectly racially integrated life], don't look quite like the peace and love crowd from where I sit.
Hisham el-Ashry is one of those rare creatures. An honest Muslim religious leader. There’s many things that you can say about him, but like most Salafis, he is one of the few who will actually tell you exactly what he believes. And in a genuinely horrifying way, that’s refreshing because with El-Ashry you’re getting a look down the throat of the beast with none of the sugarcoating.
He always greeted me cheerily, with a “Salaam” and a handshake. Eventually, we achieved a sort of unconventional friendship. “I hate you,” he told me in August, with a smile. “I hate all Jews and Christians, anyone who is not a Muslim.”
Hisham el-Ashry is quite honest about what the Islamic takeover of Egypt means for Christian women (not to mention liberal Muslim women)
“I was once asked: If I came to power, would I let Christian women remain unveiled? And I said: If they want to get raped on the streets, then they can,” Ashry told Nahar TV last week.
Introducing a Saudi-style anti-vice police force to enforce Islamic law was “not a bad thing”, he said, and added: “In order for Egypt to become fully Islamic, alcohol must be banned and all women must be covered.”
And even when they’re covered, they don’t stop being afraid of the charming fellow.
Hesham eventually excused himself to make us tea. As soon as he disappeared into the kitchen, the woman signaled me discreetly. “Do you have a phone number?” she whispered to me in English. “For emergency.” I could now see that her veil clung to her head a little lopsidedly, as if she had just started wearing it. I deduced two things: that she was Japanese, and that she was absolutely terrified of the man pouring us tea in the next room.
Don’t get the idea that Hisham el-Ashry is some backward nut with no exposure to the modern world. He immigrated to the United States in the 80s and lived in New York City for 25 years. And was only kicked out in 2009 for immigration violations.
In the United States, Hisham El-Ashry had the freedom to do what he couldn’t in Egypt. “He chose Brooklyn. And he liked it: No one minded when he casted aggressively for converts, and he could pray when and how he wished.” And Hisham El-Ashry, like all Islamists, uses whatever freedom he gains to deny it to others.
Hesham was a connoisseur of divine sadism and frightened me often with previews of hellfire. But he also cajoled me sweetly now and then, prodding me to say the shahada—“There is no god but God, and Muhammad is God’s messenger”—as soon as possible or, at the very latest, when I met the Blind Sheikh. (Prison authorities have denied my interview requests.)
--- ...only sees two scenarios in which Abdel Rahman is released. The first is that the US decides to admit its mistake in imprisoning the sheikh and finds a “nice-looking way” to let him out.
“The other way is, kidnap some Americans, slaughter some of them, if it’s important, and have American people in danger. Then America will say, ‘Sorry, here is the imam.’ Unfortunately, this is the way America listens.”
Seriously, and we've had this discussion before, the only difference between this and "sure, not ALL Jehovah's Witnesses support pedophile rapists" is that there aren't any Muslims on this board.
And, well, if the attitude continues, there never will be.
The Greek word for “slanderer” or “accuser” is di·a′bo·los. The word is also used in the Bible as a title of Satan “the Devil,” the great slanderer of God. This indicates the source of such defamatory accusation.
psssst, whats good for the goose? Is good for the gander.
Yu post rhetoric, half-truths, and libelous attacks upon others all the time B. Then you get all puffy chested high and mighty, when you get called on it. Just precisely when, and by what authority, were you named heed judge of all mankind? Strikes me, that isnt what you profess to believe, just what you do.
You want to see intolerance? Look back at your pposts over the last 1/2 dz years, and see how you have spoken of the President, Islam and any whose flavor of Christianity, doesnt agree with yurs.
Islam claims the right to behead me if I don't convert.
You claim the right to convert me to political correctness under threat of unemployment and starvation.
I don't personally claim the right to interfere with your life whatsoever.
And somehow in your mind, I'm the intolerant one just because I believe there is one objective reality, God has revealed it and every contrary description of reality is a lie.
B? You claim, no...you DEMAND the right to interfere in others lives. You bemoan the building of a Mosque in NYC. You whine about any political action with which yuou disagree. You slander and liable those persons with whom you disagree.
The Koran FTR, dictates tolerance for those of a different theologic bent. Like the Bible, there are multiple apparent conflicts within it. It requires much care, to read and discern its intended message, not at all unlike the Bible.
1) I don't even vote to interfere in your life, let alone demand to interfere in your life.
2) I do point out stupidity. Deal with it if the shoe fits. You can tell whose nerve has been exposed by the truth around here. They can't even bear to hear me talk. 'Shut up', they explain.
3) You know perfectly well the terrible life of the dhimmi. Explain how that is tolerance to put someone thru that and when you get done doing that I'll point out the innumerable places where Islam isn't even affording them that 'tolerance' no matter what their book claims.
Jihad Watch is under continual attack of this kind, but this most recent instance was significant for its size: these friends and supporters of jihad terrorists threw immense amounts of money and resources into taking [down] Jihad Watch.
In previous attacks over the last couple of years, the cyber terrorists were satisfied with taking the site down for a brief period and claiming victory, but now the attacks have escalated. Since we have started blocking their attacks, they have increased in ferocity, bombarding Jihad Watch's server with so many requests for connections that the server goes down. At times there have been as many as 1,000,000 requests an hour!
A representative of the company that built a firewall around Jihad Watch said that this ongoing attack was one of the five most virulent cyber attacks they're currently fighting anywhere on the web.
Another seasoned cyber security expert told us that he had never seen such a virulent and persistent attack in all of years of working on protecting websites from just such attacks. --- You see, the cyber terrorists know that Robert Spencer tells the truth and that they can't refute him on rational grounds - so they resort to the forcible suppression of free speech that is a hallmark of the increasingly authoritarian and thuggish Left.
Jihad Watch is one of the very few places online or off where you can find the whole truth about the Islamic jihad against the free world. That's why Leftist and Islamic supremacists hate Robert Spencer so much.
