The "are we or aren't we" discussion about war with islam is a tricky one. Maybe if we could just get mikey weinstein, from the Military Religious Freedom Foundation to work on getting radical islamists to stop proselytizing then 'war with islam' wouldn't be an issue and we could all relax.

I am confused as to your point. :confused: Are you implying by this juxtaposition of two quotes that the FBI is manufacturing charges? Please explain. It may the lateness of the hour or the just this old guys faulty brain. :D

All the talk of crazy, dangerous, white, right wing, christian, conservative, potential domestic terrorist that Jan Napolitano warns about......I don't see many on the list.

Maybe WE aren't at war with Islam, but from the looks of the FBI list Islam is at war with us.

Insulting even.

In all honesty I was quite surprised to see so many members of the Religion of Peace......I was under the impression (based on the MSM & Admin) that the threat had subsided.

The Lucifer Principle/Xenophobia on repeat.

Are we at war with Islam? I've heard numerous people say no, including the POTUS. However, can anyone name one Islamic country that has no ties, either collectively or individually, to terrorist attacks? Islam is called by its adherents the religion of peace and they claim Islam has been hijacked by the few. And there are dozens of Islamic countries. Surely there must be one in which the religion has not been hijacked and used to attack the west?

Disclaimer: I too believe in freedom of religion. Those are acceptable when kept personal.

Your post encouraged me to speak up. Specifically you highlighting Christianity, since this is cross-cultural. Terrorists are fanatics that adhere to any ism that threatens the liberty or quality of life of others. Usually via personal validation or groupthink. Interpret it how you like.

There wasn't a thread created for "are we at war with religious fanaticism?"
As a minority that dislikes religious literalism that inspires cultural exclusivity I would say yes. Not to say that I am a tree hugger. Those Buddhists need to stop wasting petrol.

The East is holding no reservations, and is going further into biotech and other engineering. While the West is hanging on to Jihad, metzitzah b'peh, and an inability to advance with stem cells.

We can sacrifice the best of our QP's, but not an embryo. Wake up America. We clone mammals now. Who is we? Mark 5:9 "…Legion, for we are many.” This is not the time to lose our edge. Let me know when the mormons clone the prophet. I hear they are on the cutting edge of genetic research.

They even have an official 5013c: Mormon Transhumanist Association. Not kidding. To discuss "posthuman" special forces, that would be a great thread. To imagine a transhumanist Mormon, would be an act of terror. Especially if it was wearing magic underwear and consulting FM-2030.

Thank you for your post. God bless Amerigo where I can blaspheme while watching primitive mythology in its death throes.

Thats terrible. How could anyone write an insulting book about the prophet.

If I were to really become a devout believer of any religion, it would probably be Buddhism. As far as I know, nobody has ever killed anyone in the name of Buddha...

You're forgetting Tong Po.

Top Muslims: 'terrorism not a topic for talks'

"Muslim leaders criticized on Saturday the agenda of the German Islamic Conference taking place next week. They do not want terrorism as a key subject, nor should Islam critics to attend, the Süddeutsche Zeitung reported.........."

Hmmm, terrorism from the Muslim community and Islam critics not wanted at an Islamic Conference.

The "We are the Religion of Peace" just keeps rolling along.

I am with you on that one, Bro.:lifter

".............In October 2012 the last Christian in the city of Homs—which had a Christian population of some 80,000 before jihadis came—was murdered. One teenage Syrian girl said: “We left because they were trying to kill us… because we were Christians…. Those who were our neighbors turned against us. At the end, when we ran away, we went through balconies. We did not even dare go out on the street in front of our house.”................"

For the most part the folks doing this are not terrorists - just everyday "Religion of Peace" Muslims.

I still contend that the Truly Radical Muslims are the ones that really want to get along with us!!!
