thereligionofpeace.com is run by a guy named glen reinsford.

he seems to be a standard issue conservative fear monger except for his advocacy of banning muslim immigration to the united states. he relates it to playing russian roulette.

google him and read some of his other articles/interviews. interesting guy.

i don't. there are many conservatives who aren't fear mongers.

he isn't one of those.

The response is to be made aware of what and who is working against our country. No more no less. What is the process by which you "vett" a site or source? Do you take offense at the site because you perceive it to be hateful, or because you consider it to be alarmist in nature?
The site sheds light on what it believes is a threat to our country. I think that's a correct assumption.

Of course not, but when you find out that the Quran says 493 times that lying and deception are permissible to further the goal of the faith, then that seems to be a big red flag regarding relations with this group of people. How would you carry on a relationship when you knew that the other person in that relationship would lie to your face to achieve a secret goal?? Seems to me that would not bode well for a solid friendship.
Believe me when I say hesitate to even think about an entire culture based in part by Taqiyya, and building a bond with of peace with them.
ps...you probably laughed during "Schindlers List" too,huh?
pps...still waiting for an explanation of your "vetting" process for information

My issue with this "piece" and you buying it hook line and sinker is it groups all Muslims together. Personally, I think you have too much time on your hands.

Catholic priests sexually abused children for decades. Should we all look negatively at all Catholic's because of this? Of course not, adults and people not named Scudsbrother understand that an entire group can't be characterized by their weakest members. Do you even know anyone that is Muslim?
Your whole post is nothing but BS! You twist words into a different meaning,as usual. People who laughed at everything usually don't understand
what they're faced with..so it explains you to a "T". I'm not trying to alienate anyone...just point out some things. The "reach" part is for you to understand something BEFORE you blast it. My initial post asked for your consideration...whether you "buy" it is up to you. How 'bout for New Years and beyond you don't talk to me...that'd work just fine.

I twist words? That's rich. You correlate me finding your nonsense funny to me finding Schindler's List funny.

I don't understand what I'm faced with? You're too much. I'll ask again, do you even know anyone Muslim?

It must beyond your comprehension that anybody could pose a threat to the US. The purpose of thread was to show the stated threat to any non-believers in Islam...that is a fact, by their prophets' own words and the teachings of various sects. How many posts have you replied "I laughed"? If you laughed at this threat, then you would laugh at something as grave as Schindlers List. You could take all of the incidents in Norway,Germany, plus
France and Englands troubles with Muslims....that might give you a clue.
Yes, I know couple of Muslim families. Do you know any Christians that practice their faith?

I should have paid more attention to Comparative Religions as a freshman in college. I had a good book but threw it away

All I can speak to is from my experience being raised an Irish-Catholic and attending Catholic schools with nuns. I think I absorbed the moral teachings of Jesus, despite my early realization that the nuns were very mean spirited, unhappy people. Didn't take long after that to see the scriptures were twisted by almost all to justify their own actions. And, yes, pedophilia is an integral part of the Roman Catholic Church's culture, I believe. And that includes the current Pope

It took 363 days but that was the funniest line I've read this year.

Amazing how lazy people are when it comes to religion:

1)The Prophet that Muslims follow was a pedophile that married a nine year old.

2)He said to kill those who tried to leave the religion.

3) Said it was cool to treat women like farm animals(and said men could beat them up a little to keep them in line.)

4)Said “slay the infidels wherever ye find them,” and “smite their necks and fingertips,” showing “ruthlessness to unbelievers,”

Do you really want to compare the Christian prophet to this prophet? They aren't close, and that's why you have one particularly violent religion causing trouble for the other 3/4 of the World's population. I am not a fan of Fundamentalist Christianity, but I think it's incredibly lazy to try to say one religion is anywhere near as violent as the other. Did Jesus say to kill those who leave Christianity? I don't think so. See, this is why you see these countries where the population is almost 100% Muslim( they have the right to kill anyone who leaves Islam behind.) I can understand how people don't care about either religion, or any religion. However, it's ignorant to keep thinking Islam isn't an incredibly violent religion. The prophet himself was very violent, and they are simply following his instructions.
