Contrived survey gets expected result becomes talking point du jour.

I'm being hijacked by ads.

Bezos must regard Sally Quinn as a great theologian.

Consider the kunyas they take, they are all from islamic history.

As are the names of the organizations.

--Part of that is probably a result of familiarity; more Americans understand the basics of Christianity than Islam and may be likely to assume that Islam provides more allowance for violent acts...--

The assumption is warranted because it objectively and undeniably does.
The difference between our elites and ordinary Americans is that we understand the basics of islam considerably better than the high handed bastards trying to use our corpses as "teachable moments".

Those who can do, those who can't teach. Those who can't even teach become journalists or get themselves elected somewhere.

Bitter clingers in the Beltway cling to "Islam is a religion of Peace" propaganda.

Sura 008.012

Remember thy Lord inspired the angels (with the message): "I am with you: give firmness to the Believers: I will instill terror into the hearts of the Unbelievers: smite ye above their necks and smite all their finger-tips off them."

Happy Monday.....

Another pernicious attempt at moral relativity and moral equivalence.

There are no "Christian Extremists" and there are no "Christian Terrorists".

This is yet again an attempt to plant the notion of "christian Fanaticism". in the mind of those either being polled or reading the poll.

The proper response to such questions should be "Christian Extremists? Whatever are you talking about?"

It is very telling that the Left cannot even attempt to control their hatred of Christians.

Help me out here. I can't seem to place the last mass shooting committed in the name of Christ.

buccaneer morgan

Ansar al sharia, helpers of the holy law, has nothing to do with Islam.

buccaneer morgan

Brevik was a pagan, the so-called mosque torcher wins an anarchist.

henry:

"Bitter clingers in the Beltway cling to "Islam is a religion of Peace" propaganda"

That really is incredibly apt.

Sue

OhEmGee you guys, how quickly you forget the Christian terrorists. Does Crusades ring a bell with any of you?

-- I can't seem to place the last mass shooting committed in the name of Christ.--

Even if there were 100 per year the fact would remain that each one was in violation of every tenet of Christianity and in alignment with none of them.

As matt noted in only one of the many instances, a mass shooting in the name of allah is in perfect alignment with many verses of the koran and hadith.

Of we followed the French model, we would start shutting down the entire deobandi network, in bostoms link.

People seem to look at what the violent say, not what those who are peaceful say. Let’s listen instead to what all the peaceful of each religious persuasion say.

On which side are the crickets?

jimmyk

To paraphrase Forest Gump, Islam is what Islam does.

JMH@ 11:02-- sure John Brown at Harper's Ferry, you know christian fanatics seeking abolition of slavery.

Ig-- alignment? Mass murder is a free pass to eternal paradise.

well, Matt as the late Alan Sherman once sang, it is difficult to give up smoting.

I tried to click through, just to see how awful the WaPo link is, but apparently I've reached my limit of free articles for the month there.

I'm just inconsolable aboutt that. Truly.

squaredance

JD: if you really need to read that article, generally you can just delete your browser cookies for the site in question (or try another browser). Do not know about WaPo as I make it a policy to avoid it, but it works from just about everyone else.

It is, I grant you, all too much work to just to read an article in one of the Prog organs--just passing the info along.

Publius

Apparently the WA Post does not read the NY Post, which quotes FBI veteran John Guandolo, who said, "Evidence exists to demonstrate that a greater level of adherence to Islamic law correlates to a greater likelihood of violence."

Studies back him up, including one recently published in Europe that found that Islam is the only religion in the world in which people become more violent the stronger they believe.

IMHO 'Radicalized Muslims' is a term used here to describe mainstream Muslims in the Middle East. I suspect that in the ME, peaceful Muslims are the ones that have become 'radicalized'.

Publius

I forgot to add the NY Post article. My bad!

So I guess Worldwide Wrestling is *not* a religion? #AskingForAFriend

some old JOM comments -

"Christians who are violent toward or subjugate their neighbors do so in violation of the tenets of their faith and the instructions of the founder of their faith.
Muslims who are violent toward or subjugate their neighbors are obeying the tenets of their faith and the instructions of its founder." - Ignatz 9-23-09 JOM thread

"The Koran instructs Muslims to be violent. If it didn't, they'd be more peaceful. The Koran itself is the root of much of the world's problems, and that fact should not be sugar-coated. If more people read what's stated in the Koran, by Allah, I think it would contribute much more to insight than phony "religion of peace" invocations." - Extraneus

Janet

and another one ...not sure who I was responding to -

...it is O.K. to not only murder non-Muslims -- "infidels," who do not submit to Muslim authority -- but to murder Muslims as well who will not accept the most rigid Muslim lifestyle and submit to rule by a Muslim caliphate.

That is Islam. It is what the Koran teaches. The non-violent Muslims are those that have become secularized. Any turning back to orthodoxy or foundational documents like the Koran will only lead to more violence.
The road to hope for Muslims and the rest of us leads toward conversion or secularization. The religion of Islam is evil. - Janet

We once had a campaign to pray for the conversion of Russia, which succeeded. (Putin is practicing Russian Orthodox.)

We need a campaign to pray for the conversion of Muslims.

I'm reminded of an old cartoon where an advertising agency rep explains the failure of a dogfood marketing campaign to the client. "The dogs don't like the dogfood."

Well the problem here on the "he's not a true Muslim" campaign is that people generally resist eating horse manure, and when that's what the politicians are passing out, it's tough for the public to swallow.

Now that doesn't mean that Obama and Jeh Johnson won't keep shoveling the stuff--but the public ain't buying.

Publius

No Janet, if you are still here, the link I used to answer your question of yesterday was in my 1:30 pm above.
