It was those kinds of pics that changed my view of Islam from one of theological disagreement to total opposition. They should be put on TV everytime Abu Gharaib comes up. Everytime!

The only thing those guards did wrong was take pictures.

So where are the outraged “moderate muslims”?

Part of being moderate means that you aren’t extreme. So moderates are less likely to be activists or to participate in demonstrations or other actions.

And part of being moderate is that the world’s media doesn’t pay much attention to you. I was listening to public radio this morning and one of the guests of the talk show On Point, with Tom Ashbrook was Imam Salih Yucel, Second Imam at the Revere Mosque in Revere, Mass. He condemned the violent actions in the wake of the Pope’s controversial speech. But his statement that such violence was contrary to Islam didn’t make any headlines or news stories. If I hadn’t heard it, and then wrote about it here, none of you would have known about it.

Ok, your first mistake was listening to NPR, which is essentially anti-Christian. But, I hear ya.

My problem is that the muslims in this thing have been telling lies about what their religion teaches from the off, and that is a huge problem. This is why the “moderates” refuse to come forward in mass and tell the “radicals” to stop ruining their faith…they know that the faith is one of violence as stipulated in the Koran.

[SIGN]I can’t believe that the moderate Muslims are not speaking out against the over-reaction to Pope B16’s statements. I just watched a TV debate with the head of a Muslim organization and a Protestant columnist. They both deplored what the Pope said but that’s where their agreement ended because the Muslim man said that the violence is justified because “victims” have a right to defend themselves. This is craziness. How can the world stand back and keep saying this is a peaceful religion? I just don’t get it:( ./[/SIGN]QUOTE]

you’re right!!

When Mehmet Ali Agca, an Islamic Turkish terrorist, shot Pope John Paul II on May 13, 1981, Catholics didn’t burn down mosques or kill Moslems. Instead the Holy Father forgave his would-be assassin in true Christian compassion.

Compare his response to that of many Islamic leaders around the world in after a remark made by Pope Benedict XVI last week. He quoted an ancient Byzantine emperor who said Islam spreads its message “by the sword” and some of Mohammed’s teachings as “evil and inhuman.”

Many in the Muslim world quickly proved the emperor right. “You will only see our swords until you go back to God’s true faith - Islam,” said a statement issued by a militant group in Iraq called Ansar al-Sunnah.

Another group linked to al-Qaeda warned that the West and the Pope are “doomed.” Some Turkish leaders said the Pope should be tried for war crimes, and, in London, a Muslim called for the Pope’s execution while mobs chanted that he was a Nazi.

The real Nazis are the Islamic leaders who encouraged the Islamic mobs to riot, set fires to Christian churches, even shooting a Catholic nun to death in a hospital in Somalia.

Some Muslim leaders spoke against the anti-Christian, anti-West jihad but they were the lone voices in the wilderness. The loudest Islamic voices continued to throw the proverbial gas on the fire they sparked even after the Pope apologized twice for offending anyone.

The Pope isn’t the problem. The problem is that extreme fundamentalist Muslims are incapable of living on the same planet as the rest of us.

And if you have read anything about the nun that was shot in the back by muslim cowards, she began to forgive them before she even hit the ground…now that is a Religion of Peace…very much unlike the religion of the cowards that shot her.

On one episodes of the Simpsons, Lisa imagines she is St. Joan of Arc. She tells the French people that she will lead them to victory. Someone in the crowd responds,
“But we’re French! We don’t even have a word for victory!”

Yep, those were her dying words!
 
Thanks. Somehow I suspect the Muslim won’t be happy I’ve been proved wrong on this issue.

The first picture made me miss a heart beat. How sad our world has come to this. Fervent prayers are needed for the victims and their families and also for the perpetrators :gopray2:

It should sadden us. It should also sober us up to the fact that the wolf is at the door, and it is up to us to fend him off. We do so here by telling the truth of Christ.

Cheers!
