Ah yes, I can see you subscribe to the notion of some scary monolithic Muslim menace. the Umah Godzilla -- well good luck with your nightmares LOL. Though you do in passing mention the sectarianism, which is just as prevalent in the Muslim world as it is in the Christian world - if we want to see the world through that narrow reductive optic, you continue to treat more than a billion human beings as a single monolithic block marching to the same ideological beat and framing these billion separate individual human beings as some kind of existential menace to our way of life. Is this an accurate assessment of your political beliefs?
You are so wrong, the various histories and inner beliefs; the customs, practices and modalities of the many different peoples who have in common a religious faith - if one can describe a religion so fractured along sectarian lines as having much in common at all -- are in fact quite varied and you cannot understand a Malay, or a Taureg etc. solely through your read of Islam without also understanding their particular histories. You are being grossly reductionist and in reality there is a huge diversity in customs, beliefs, and practices amongst the world's Muslims and in much of the "Muslim" world there are also many who do not believe in these ancient fairy tales, any more than for example I believe in the Christian fairy tales. There is not a Muslim world and a Christian world; we all live on the same planet. there is only one world. We are all the same animal species and share the same mental physiology and are all driven by the same desires essentially - to have food, shelter, comfort, safety, happiness, family.. and for some to discover the truth behind the veil. There are plenty of Muslim fundy assholes, but then there are Jewish, Christian, Buddhist, Hindu (etc.) fundy assholes in abundance as well. We have our own American Taliban - our own wild eyed fundamentalist medieval minded crazies. What real difference is there between a Jewish/Zionist or Christian fundamentalist and an Arab/Muslim fundamentalist? Not a whole lot - IMO. I agree with those who are concerned about the rise of fundamentalism in our world, about this return to an iconoclastic, medieval and Manichean world view, but when it is suggested that this is somehow a Muslim phenomenon and not a human folly that is festering in all societies and can turn any society into one that finds itself living through a Torquemada experience, that is where I get off of the boat and begin to criticize those who selectively criticize other cultures while ignoring the very same phenomena when they crop up in their own societies. -Chris From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: Thursday, August 22, 2013 6:01 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: The Nazi History of the Muslim Brotherhood Its a solid majoritarian opinion by the Umah (Islamic nation) tho' their are huge schisms within Islam..Sunni v Shia, Amadi's (the good guys). A PEW opinion survey of Islamic states bears Alberto's views out-sorry to say. It's not bigotry, if is true, nor is it propaganda, if one is not, using a little truth to tell a big lie. It's telling a big truth, about how the Faithful view the world, and to educate, and accept the facts as they are. What to do about this if we are correct is complicated. Frankly, I am guessing that we might mitigate this dilemma by focusing on the prime motivation within Islam--Life after Death. It is, as we yanks say, "what gets them out of bed in the morning" It's even more central to Islam then it is to Christianity.... we can put our collective efforts there instead of focusing on personal attacks, or ideological correctness.

Google: hitler arab countries television It can not be otherwhise since te nazis and the muslims share the same main goal. you know. Abu Mazen, the leader of the PLO after Yasif Arafat wrote its doctoral thesis at the university about denial of the Holocaust. The Baaz party that ruled Iraq and Siria are inspired directly by the Nazi party. There are hundred of examples of continuous praise of hitler or hitler-inspired ideas in the musling world. If you search, you can find a lot of nazi flags waved by muslim fundamentalists. even on the top of mesquites 2013/8/21 meekerdb <[email protected]> On 8/21/2013 11:48 AM, Alberto G.
