It would do well for our citizens to be acquainted with their US History which clearly showed that Thomas Jefferson was no fan of the Quran. In fact its reading served to help him conclude that the only way to end the Barbary Coast piracy was not tribute or diplomacy but to respond to the declaratiopn of war by the caliphates when their demands were not met with war. The US involvement (which we won) freed the Barbary Coast and the world from Muslim terrorism of the seas.
Check out articles by Christopher Hitchens in Time Magazine , “To the Shores of Tripoli”and Dr. Rand Fishbein (PHD from John Hopkins Univ.) article in The National Interest Magazine entitled Echoes from the Barbary Coast” and Kevin J. Hayes ” How Jefferson read the Quran”- March22, 2004 in the journal of Early American Literature……just to name a few…..also read history books prior to 1947….Humanists managed to distort history after 1947.

Why don’t they swear in on the Constituition or Declaration of Independence? It is the office of the GOVERNMENT you are swearing to uphold – not a church or mosque and neither God or Allah are president.

[...] One blogger I ran across coyly pointed out the following excerpt from Jefferson’s 1777 Draft of a Bill for Religious Freedom, once more, a further attempt to infer justification for Keith Ellison’s actions: â€¦that our civil rights have no dependance on our religious opinions, any more than our opinions in physics or geometry; that therefore the proscribing any citizen as unworthy the public confidence by laying upon him an incapacity of being called to offices of trust and emolument, unless he profess or renounce this or that religious opinion, is depriving him injuriously of those privileges and advantages to which, in common with his fellow citizens, he has a natural right.

Social engineering? What do you think the whole Republican party has been doing this last decade and more? Asking the government not to engage in social engineering is like asking the driver not to steer. Here’s what I call social engineering: forming a more perfect union, establishing justice, insuring domestic tranquility, providing for the common defense, promoting the general welfare, and securing the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity. Providing equality before the law, and not regarding the devotees of one religion as “more American” than another is forming a more perfect union, establishing justice, promoting the general welfare, and securing the blessings of liberty. Why is it that when “liberals” seek to establish justice, conservative cry foul?

Some of the news stories like to make it sound like Jefferson believed and followed the Koran. Owning the Koran means nothing about what Jefferson believed about it. He was a deist. I have a Jehovah’s Witness Bible in my library and don’t believe or follow it. Congress is never perfect, whoever is in control, but Lord help us from more social engineering now that you liberals are in charge again.

# 89 .. America is already not the America we knew. I can no longer rush to the airport .. get there 10 minutes before my flight departs, get my ticket and run down to the gate and make my flight. The fun of flying has been reduced to the fear of flying. My child isn’t allowed to pray in school, but many schools are setting up prayer rooms to accommodate the prayer needs of the Muslim children. Prisons are doing the same thing. I would never be allow to preach for 2 minutes 5 times a day over loudspeakers covering my town. Yet in some towns this is what Muslims have pushed for and received. No .. the America we knew isn’t here anymore. I grew up in a very different environment. Is it the Muslim’s fault this has happened. No .. it’s our fault for allowing this to happen. Sleep on America .. sleep on.

[...] Think Progress brings us an interesting update to the recent Virgil Goode bigot eruption over the democratic election of Keith Ellison, a Muslim. Goode, you’ll remember, has equated the Ellison victory to helping bring about an environment making the next September 11 a reality. In fact, you would think Ellison’s plan to use the Koran in an unofficial, swearing-in photograph – to listen to the Goodes, Glenn Becks and Dennis Pragers of the world – means the end of America as we know it.

Roger Roger you are morally bankrupt if you feel that God can kill, murder, and order rapes and animal sacrifices.

I don’t care if you’re creater of the effing universe, killing, rape, and slavery are effing wrong. Glad that phuck of a god doesn’t exist.

….but no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States.â€

“Ellison has chosen to be photographed with the copy of the Qurâ€™an that was owned by Thomas Jefferson…..”

Why is this Muslim man, Ellison, allowed to become part of the US Government? Any Muslim should be banned from taking any sort of role in the Government of the USA, at all levels… even School Boards and Municipal bodies, because all Muslims are extremely backward and ignorant, and do not deserve the so-called religious tolerance that is apparent in the USA.

Muslims believe in Sharia law (which degrades women horribly, bans proper education of citizens, and allows innocent women to be stoned to death). Muslims are backward as they still live in the era of 14 centuries ago. Muslims are wicked and dangerous, as the Koran calls for all infidels (unbelievers) to be executed and destroyed.

Muslims are extremely corrupt, dangerous and weird, as they say that their prohet must be believed and obeyed… this is extremely dangerous, because their prophet Mohammed was a deranged psychopath who was also a pedophile who married a nine-year-old girl and sexually diddled her willingly. The Islam way of life, and the Muslim religion, are backward and ignorant and should be banned totally from all Western contries.

Ellison, a believer in Mohammed – a child molester and pedophile, should be banned from any Government post, period.

Practicing no religon(SIC is a religon(SIC). Again, religon(SIC) is what makes this country great. I appreciate sites like TP that call out those that deride someone for there(SIC) faith.

Lloyd, if it had not been for the relatively enlightened Muslim world of the middle ages, you would still be sticking flowers up your nose to ward off the pox and setting fire to people’s grannies. Forget history? Did you forget the Crusades – thousands of well-armed, homicidal, religious maniacs who appear without warning in the muslim lands, waving a Bible in one hand and putting babies on spits in the other?

Sure, religious zealotry is all around us and if you think you should cast aside 500 years of western civilization in order to go back to the middle ages to refight the Crusades then you need to understand – this time they will win. The demographic is not in the West’s favor if and 25,000 committed Iraqis can paralyze the most dominant military force in history, you are left contemplating nuclear genocide.

The answer lies in confronting religious extremism everywhere and holding up the fruits of the Enlightenment and Age of Reason with a chance for for everyone to share.

Do you really desire to be ruled under Islamic law?

Oops that’s a straw man Lloyd, you must have been getting frustrated.
