Wow bit you really are an astonishingly stupid moron. How many battles are recorded in Judges, Chronicles Kings? How many times did God instruct Joshua to kill everyone in a village every man woman and child and the farm animals? How many wives and how old did Solomon have? You are not only a bigot you are stupid. You dont know your own religion and just hate Islam out of knee jerk stupidity and being brainwashed. Being an ignorant brainwashed bigot is no way to go through life moron. Save yourself.

And the semantic debate rather buries the larger, even more Mor’onic point Santorum was trying to make, which is that Islam is unchanging and somehow incompatible with democracy. There would be a lot of Islamic scholars and clerics out of work if that were the case.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Mor’onic, VERY good. Not only that if it had ANY reality we wouldnt have had to overthrow the FIRST Islamic democracy in Iran in 53. Santorums cookie has clearly crumbled.

Just saying . . .

Dear Mr. Santorum, the only work that needs to be done here is you, you’re not even a work in progress. Remember Terrie Schiavo you cluck head and the mess you made of what was left of her life, ON A FEEDING TUBE? Go Home and shut the f**k up!

In regards to Islam, Santorum is perhaps one of the worst choices to deliver a lecture on the religion and culture. “Islamic” is an adjective; “Arabic” is a noun. If he can’t get the basic terminology right, then how can he be reliable on anything else on the topic?

“A democracy could not exist because Mohammed already made the perfect law.”

Well, Muhammad did not “make the perfect law”. He didn’t write anything – he was illiterate! The Qur’an was recited by him, following revelations from God. It was not written down until much later, some sources indicating that a written version of the Qur’an as we know it today did not exist until decades after the death of the Prophet.

It is also false to declare that Islam is incompatible with democracy. Muhammad was not a dictator; he regularly met and consulted with others and would follow the decision of the majority even if he disagreed with it. These councils are called “shura” and were an early form of democracy within the Muslim community. In fact, the nation with the largest Muslim population – Indonesia – is a democracy! Turkey is a democracy!

Yes, these are indeed exceptions. Most countries with a Muslim majority population are not democratic. This is not the result of Islam, but rather the legacy of colonialism and centuries of rule by monarchs and oligarchs.

Having Rick Santorum speak about Islam is no better than having the Ayatollah Khomeni speak about Judaism or Christianity. Both of these men have/had an ideological bias against those not of their own faith. Why anyone would listen to Rick Santorum is beyond me.

Besides, I bet Santorum doesn’t even know the answer to his own question re: the difference between the Sunni and the Shia.

I wonder what the students thought of his statement? Did they laugh, gasp or walk out?

Actually, according to the lined article, they gave him two standing ovations.

Santorum lecturing about Islam is the equivalent of drew3rd lecturing about the “gay agenda”…

To the best of bit’s understanding Christ never sought power in any of these arenas.

Whilst Christ himself, IF he actually existed, may not have, it certainly never stopped many a Christianist after him from trying.

Crusades, anyone?

White man’s burden?

Remember, with Islam it’s always RPM – religion, politics, and military.

Ya mean, kinda like “God, guns, and gays”???

In spite of volumes of literature on the subject, a vast majority of Muslims young and old are ignorant of Islamic history.”

He probably means things like these: the number of battles in which Mohammad participated or commanded; the number and ages of his wives; the two important communities where he lived; and his community organizing activities.

Simple, help other states by advertising your formula of kicking him out of Penn. state.

Your ideas will be appreciated in many other states.

An appeals court in Afghanistan upheld 20-year prison sentences Sunday for two men who published a translation of the Quran that drove religious leaders to call for their execution.

The controversial text is a translation of Islam’s holy book into an Afghan language without the original Arabic verses alongside. Muslims regard the Arabic Quran as words given directly by God. A translation is not considered a Quran itself, and it is believed a mistranslation could warp God’s word.
…
Chief judge Abdul Salam Qazizada invoked Islamic Shariah law when reading out the sentence, saying death would not have been an extreme punishment.

“He who commits such an act is an infidel and should be killed” according to some interpretations of Shariah law, Qazizada said.

Well, at least we are bringing freedom to Afghanistan.
Surge on, Obama. Surge on.

Notice how Norm Coleman is standing next to Suzie-Q! Yep, she just gave Coleman $2000 in his race against the Senator-Elect Al Franken while at the same time trying to pass off the image that she’s a champion of bipartisanship, because she voted in favor of President Obama’s economic stimulus bill!
