Islam linked to America's most dangerous threat

Gee, I dunno. I would have said that the biggest threat to the American way of life, since 1980, is Christian dominionism....

Could be that you are "uninformed".

Christianity says that Jesus is God-Incarnate.

Islam says that Jesus is not God-Incarnate.

Quite a difference I would say, wouldn't you?

Take care, be ready.

"that says that Jesus Christ and all the people that follow him are a bunch of infidels who should be essentially obliterated."

Huckleberry is not only a silly man but also uninformed. Muslims revere Jesus, as a Prophet but not the final Prophet - that goes to Mohammad.

This guy trying to be President is like another joker like GW and his foolishness, all of which we are suffering right now.

You wrote, " Christianity says that you are free to make your choice, but that to chose something or someone other than Jesus Christ, the Son of God, will have dire consequences in the eternity to follow"

Does it?

Or is that what many "Chrisitans" read it to be?

Have you ever thought that God just might have a Plan and that part of God's Plan is God becoming One of us?

And that this "Plan" is, ultimately, for All to be in God's Kingdom?

Then you wrote, "...and that Judgement is God's alone, not Man's."

And have you ever thought that maybe we should leave that "Judgement" to God?

You also wrote, "He reflect an honest concern about the true nature of Islam.", He referring to Governor Huckabee.

Some just don't seem to want to look at reality, not just in Muslim lands and not just at the "extremists" but also at the so-called "moderates" in many parts of the world.

There are many "moderates" that wish to impose "sharia law" where they live and this goes hand-in-glove with the tenets of islam.

The True, Living, Triune, Triumphant God is a searcher of hearts and minds, not of religious affiliations or lack thereof.

It is important what one does and why one does it and what one knows.

God looks at the person, not the "label".

Even tho there have been many "Christians" over the years that have attempted to set up a theocracy in Jesus's Name that is not the reason why God became One of us.

Take care, be ready.

How do you define religious extremism? Someone who says that his religion is the right way and everyone who doesn't choose his way is going to hell...or someone who says that he will kill or enslave everyone who doesn't choose his religion?

I can clearly understand Governor Huckabee's position here as an evangelical Christian. The Scriptures explain that Jesus said "I am the Way, the Truth and the Life. NO ONE comes to the Father except by Me." Yes, for someone who wants to believe that there are multiple paths to Heaven or their different belief is the correct one, evangelical Christianity can appear to be intolerant. But it does not in current times choose to murder for the sake of religious beliefs (let's get over the Inquisition, that happened over six hundred years ago and has more to do with historical politics than anything else) Christianity says that you are free to make your choice, but that to chose something or someone other than Jesus Christ, the Son of God, will have dire consequences in the eternity to follow...and that Judgement is God's alone, not Man's.

However, Islam is clearly not only more intolerant, it also calls upon its followers to subjugate all who do not follow Islam, with violence and deceit clearly allowed within this conflict or jihad. Muslims who choose to commit to jihad in order to spread islamic law or sharia throughout all of humanity should be seen as the real extremists in this conflict of cultures....this war of ideas.

Why can't the talking heads here understand this? Instead, they complain that Governor Huckabee openly speaks of his faith and his strong concerns about Islam. Huckabee's words do not reflect extremism. He reflect an honest concern about the true nature of Islam.

Jay Sekulow is a far greater threat to America than Islam. Sekulow's American Taliban want to shove their perverted view of Christianity up our sphincters. Remember that they routinely damn other Christians as not real Christians because they believe in things, like, let's see:

Saving the environment;

Taxing the rich;

Caring for the poor;

Fighting poverty; and

Fighting discrimination.

Oh, and let's not forget that conservative Christians supported slavery and segregation. Sons of Ham and all that.

Jay and his fellow travelers are really just a pseudo-Christian version of the Muslim Brotherhood. They demand the Constitution take a back seat to their, and only their, version of the Bible. They are so far removed from American values as to call into question their right to call themselves real American.

The very important sounding
American Center for Law and Justice

was founded by Pat Robertson! That paragon of American thought and justice.

Sekolow's big contribution was to scream against prayer meetings (congressionally sanctioned) for Congressional Muslim Staffers, of which there are many in
congressional offices!

And THIS is the 'opinion shaper' the Washington Post, that zionist rag, recommends for his views.

Let's have Sekulow's opinion on whether
Islam is compatable with Judiasm...that's the story here...

it's the Israelis/Jews/neocons and their right wing folowers who're screaming loudest about Muslims or Islam.
(see the building in New York story used to drown out the world's flotilla rage)

Sekulow is dependably a bottom fisher. Any enlightenment escapes him. That The Washington Post thinks he's an opinion leader
says more about the Washington Post than anything else.

You wrote, "Spiritually, Islam and Christianity are not compatible."

Whereas, it appears that it is very much a part of islam to set up a theocracy on earth, Jesus very explicitely stated that "My Kingdom is not of this world", why does it seem that many who call themself, Christian, are striving to do (set up a theocracy) just what Jesus explicitely spoke against?

You then wrote, "We are the world's largest faiths, both engaged in a global race for souls."

Wasn't the "Divine Commission" to PROCLAIM THE GOOD NEWS?

Seems as if plenty of those that are "in a global race for souls" rather than PROCLAIMING THE GOOD NEWS, don't even believe in the "Good News" since they don't have a clue what the "Good News" is.

You then wrote, "However, we can compete without violence while living side-by-side in peace."

Is that what it is for you?

A "competition" for "souls"?

If the GOOD NEWS is not for ALL, ultimately, then the GOOD NEWS is not GOOD NEWS at all, but is "horrific news".

Jesus is God-Incarnate and God is a Trinity, contrary to what the god of islam says but many, it seems, are in for quite a shock when they find out that: The True, Living, Triune, Triumphant God is a searcher of hearts and minds, not of religious affiliations or lack thereof.

It is not about "competition" but about God having a Plan which God has had since before creation and God's Plan coming to Fruition.

See you and the REST OF HUMANITY in the Kingdom.

Take care, be ready.

Yes, religious extremism can often affect and cultivate dangerous minds; when men think God is speaking to them, disaster lurks in the inky shadows. It manifests to varying degrees but it is always there.

Mr Huckabee, for example, was influenced enough to pardon a prisoner who later killed four policemen.

Your boss, the putatively troubling Pat Robertson, continually imparts evangelical terrorism and the "word of faith" charlatanism in which he prophesies some vague healing--never a healed amputee, of course.

You spend many show hours drumming up fear and hate against muslims. You claim they are attempting to take over America with sharia, implying it's part of Mr Obama's agenda.

Actually, it's you and other far right religionists who want to "take back America for Christ".

Yes, Jordan, religious extremism--of any stripe--is dangerous for our country. That's why we are a land of religious equality. Our Constitution and secular government do not endorse one man's God over another.
