Unless it is done in order to save lives. PissChrist is just offensive.
But, appearing to or threatening to flush a man’s Holy Book down the toilet in order to gain information about terrorist plans or inner-workings is fine by me. Artful, even.
ybeayf for whatever reason I think you have referred to yourself as female however you seem not to have much understanding of what can or cannot be flushed down a toilet, particularly one that is not necessarily ‘industrial strength’ like you would find in a baseball stadium downwind from the beer garden. Even a SMALL object will clog a toilet as any mother knows. Further if you are female surely you’ve been in a ladies room that has warnings of flushing anything but TP down–including Kleenex, and women’s products that are actually designed to flush.
I think it is far more likely that the allegations were either made up as a result of instructions on the part of terrorist organizers or that the story of the DETAINEE plugging the toilet was misquoted. Outrageous claims by prisioners and detainees are somewhat par for the course. I heard a female detainee claim she was raped by six soldiers every night. When the claims become outragious, such as with someone flushing a book down a toilet, I tend to discount them quite heavily.
Except we don’t call it a holy war. War for freedom, democracy, national security, oil, whatever. But for Christianity?? Nah. Beating back wacko Islamacists?? Ok. But not in the name of Christianity.
Nope. 100% male.
I have faith in our armed forces’ ability to construct a capable commode, yea, even a powerful and puissant potty with a fearsome flush.
It seems that freedom and democracy have become a sort of secular religion for many Americans, and a proselytizing one, at that.
Yeah, that fascist tyranny sure beats the heck outta anything else.
Most prosperous? I’ll give you that, though perhaps not for long. Most religious? Not by a long shot. Islam is a religion, too.
WHAT???
From that article:
Amazingly, I’m suddenly taking Muslim claims to the Absolute Divinity of the Koran/Quran/whatever much less seriously.
Still not buying it. I’ll wait for you to produce some hard numbers.
One would also have to weigh the motives and likely outcome of mendacity in either case, as well as the trustworthiness of the sources. I find erstwhile terrorist contacts less than…pristine, shall we say, and their motives for and the likely outcome of lying about the actions of their captors to be quite profitable. You seemto feel likewise about the truthfulness of our Armed Forces, but I fail to see a similar motive for lying on their part.
Well, on one hand, you are correct. Nigeria is #1.

…i would not recommend standing too close to someThere is uglines in war. Sometimes we act like those we are waring with…even if we are supposed to have Christian morals. The risk of fighting evil is the fat chance of becoming contaminated. :bigyikes:
These allegations are jut but a murmur of what happened at Guatonomo Bay. Only one person was accused of these sexaul explicit acts. Even to the point of making the prisoners pretend to have fellatio with each other. Putrid behaviour. :banghead:
And many on this board excused these fellas and their ilke. I just wonder if Christ would accept these excuses!

Well then it makes more sense you don’t know what can or cannot be flushed.
So you are suggesting that the armed services anticipated the Royal Flush of the Koran and thus contstructed toilets that would (in your words) allow a small BOOK to go down? Utter baloney. Even you can’t possibly believe that.
Really? I see the emphasis on freedom and democracy from RELIGIOUS not secularists. After all forcing decisions via the courts is not democracy and that’s the usual tactic of the ACLU and other liberal activists. They know they can’t win in the ballot box so they use the courts to push their secular agenda. In addition those liberals speaking against the war want freedom for themselves (to engage in any behavior) but don’t want their brothers and sisters abroad to have even basic freedoms. Sorry but I sure don’t see many liberals pushing a “freedom and democracy” agenda here or abroad.
So if pages are ripped out of a Qur’an, they can’t be flushed down a toilet?
Even if that is true – I’m not arguing either way – I would still describe it as a secular religion, simply because it is secular (“worldly”), irrespective of the other religious beliefs of those who hold to it.
