Islam? The True Religion...not in my book!
From the logical guy... Bernie @ Plancks Constant
Islam Scares Us Because it is the True Religion
Today I am adding a new question and my canned response:
Q: Isn't it true you are afraid of Islam because you believe it is right and truthful?
A: I am afraid of poisonous snakes, not because snakes believe in the One True God, but because I endanger my family if I allow them into my home. And certainly I would be petrified with fear if my neighborhood were filled with thousands of them.
I should mention that I do not hate snakes. I fear them. It should also be mentioned that not all snakes are poisonous, however it is not always easy to tell if a particular snake can kill you. It is just safer not to allow millions of them to come where you live.
I do not write in my blog that one should hate snakes, rather just watch out for them.
But let's ignore the analogy for a moment : Muslims are not snakes, nor are all Muslims terrorists. However, what is right and true is that Muslims who are faithful to the teaching of Islam cannot assimilate, cannot integrate, cannot accept our way of life because the American way of life is Haram, corrupt and decadent.
Islam Scares Us Because it is the True Religion

In my article If You Knew Islam Like I Know Islam I listed a number of my canned responses to some of the emails and comments that I receive in order to reduce repeating the same answer over and over to my Muslim readers.
Today I am adding a new question and my canned response:

However, what is right and true is that Muslims who are faithful to the teaching of Islam cannot assimilate, cannot integrate, cannot accept our way of life because the American way of life is Haram, corrupt and decadent.
Normal people do not go to live in countries where the way of life is inimical to their core beliefs. No sane Jew would ever emigrate to Saudi Arabia, assuming the Saudis would even allow him in. No sane Christian would ever emigrate to Somalia where Al-Shabaab, a Muslim terrorist group in control of much of Somalia, has sworn to kill all Christians on sight.
But faithful Muslims come to America, a land where almost every facet of our culture is called evil in the Quran. Yet, instead of accepting this and staying away, Muslims come here with the intention, with the goal of changing our eating habits, making our women dress modestly, forcing us to hide the symbols of Christianity and Judaism, hoping to institute Shariah law, forcing us to recognize their cultural beliefs, striking at companies to accommodate their religion, insulting the memory of those who died at their hands, asking police to arrest anyone who has beliefs different than theirs, and killing their daughters if they become Americanized.
I am not afraid that in all these things Islam is right and truthful - certainly they are not - I am afraid that in all these things I am right and truthful. Very afraid.
I want to point out I have been getting these silly remarks with increasing frequency, for example here are some comments left in my FAQ:
I suppose when a Muslim kid is growing up and asks Mom and Dad, "Why are people writing that Muslims have been enslaving, killing and converting hundreds of millions of non-Muslims for 1400 years?" Instead of telling the truth, that we bloggers write these things because they are true, they obfuscate with: "Because infidels are afraid Islam is the only right and true religion." Whatever that means. In response to accusations of savagery, brutality, barbarism, torture, murder, slavery, and forced conversion, Muslims respond with "Nyah, nyah, you're just afraid we're right!" How pathetic.

Storm'n Norm'n Stomp'n In Fall River
As some of you already know I was brought up in the orphanage that once existed in Fall River's north end. Although the building is no longer there (St Vincents Home relocated some years ago...but that's another story) I still have friends and acquaintances in and around the Fall River area. I was invited to this event by Kathy Duclos and her nephew CJ Ferry (elect CJ Ferry link) ...CJ (My Space link) is running for State Representative, 7th Bristol District and I encourage all to get out the vote for CJ Ferry (candidate statement link) come November 2nd.
I was also pleased to meet for the second time since I first met him in Pembroke last summer, Jim McKenna who is running for the office of Attorney General. If you are at all concerned about the growing problems with illegal immigration that not only affects the jobs picture in Massachusetts, it is affecting your pocket to an ever increasing demand, you need to support Jim McKenna For Attorney General...you'll be glad you did! ~ Storm'n Norm'n
Tea party getting started in Fall River
Greater Boston Tea Party President Christen Varley explains what draws people to the political movement, before addressing a crowd of about a hundred people at St. John's Athletic Club Monday night.
By Will Richmond Herald News Staff Reporter
FALL RIVER —
Tea parties aren’t just for kids with good imaginations anymore.
In a packed room at the St. John’s Athletic Club, Fall River became the latest location to join the tea party, with the official kickoff for the Spindle City Tea Party Movement.
The event brought out candidates seeking office in both state and federal races — many of whom will appear as Republicans on the November ballot — along with people ready to become part of the effort.
The group cheered loudly for Sean Bielat, who is seeking to defeat Barney Frank for the 4th Congressional District seat, and for Bristol County Sheriff Thomas Hodgson, who is fighting for re-election against Democrat John Quinn and independent candidate Alan Garcia.
Some shouted “One nation under God” as they all stood for the Pledge of Allegiance and chanted for an end to Frank’s term on Capitol Hill as Bielat took the stage.
With disdain for many of the sitting politicians, both locally and nationally, organizers of the local movement said the party’s creation is one that is long needed in the area.
“Fall River has been plagued by liberal leadership for the past 30 years and they keep doing the same things over and over again and getting the same results,” Spindle City founder Carleton Boardman III said. “People are clamoring for a return to the Bill of Rights and the path our forefathers put us on, and it’s time to get back on track.”
The newly formed Fall River group is one of about 40 across the state, according to Christen Varley, president of the Greater Boston Tea Party. She said the location was ripe for the latest chapter.
“This is an old blue dog town and people inherently vote Democrat. But for 40-some years they’ve voted Democrat and it hasn’t improved the situation one bit,” Varley said. “It’s wonderful people are looking for more information. That’s what we try to do, organize and get people information so they can make good decisions.”
And while the night mainly included Republicans seeking office and tossing barbs at Democratic incumbents, Varley said party affiliation is no requirement of being part of the Tea Party Movement. She said the effort is more about getting people out and engaged in the electoral process.
“We’re going to start having an effect on government, from the dog catcher to the president of the United States. ... You know we’re the ones responsible for creating a new direction and we have that opportunity in 29 days from now,” Varley said.
Of course, some of those seeking office were quick to use the night’s theme to advance their message as they seek votes on election day.
“I’m starting to think people want to get rid of Barney. I’m starting to think people want to take government back,” Bielat said shortly after taking the stage. “We have to turn around Beacon Hill and we especially have to turn around Capitol Hill.”
Others made it clear their ideals have long been in accordance with those in attendance Monday night.
“When I first ran for sheriff, I got the reputation of not drinking the Kool-Aid. I’ll tell you, I drink tea and I drink it all day long,” Hodgson told the adoring the crowd.

Koran is destined to rule America... “The Flag of Islam Will One Day Fly Over The White House”
Is this what you want?
The folloowing from: The Washington Times
Islamic flag over the White House
Radical Muslims want America ruled by Shariah
Islamists say the Koran is destined to rule America. In fact, the Muslim takeover of the White House is not just an unfolding action plan but a directive from Muhammad himself.In an interview Sunday on ABC's "This Week," British radical Muslim activist Anjem Choudary made clear what he and his Islamist brothers have planned for the West. "We do believe, as Muslims, the East and the West will one day be governed by the Shariah," he said. "Indeed, we believe that one day, the flag of Islam will fly over the White House." He then quoted a hadith, or saying of Muhammad, as related by 10th-century Muslim scholar Al-Tabarani, that "the final hour will not come until Muslims conquer the White House." Another version of the saying goes, "A small portion of Muslims will rise and conquer the White House."
Many Americans believe this conquest is well underway, if not already secretly completed. President Obama was concerned enough about perceptions of his faith to address the question at one of his recent "backyard discussions" in New Mexico. Mr. Obama said he is "a Christian by choice," which may or may not assuage the concerns of those who believe he is a Muslim by birth.
The president's declaration of faith may not help with his vaunted outreach to the global Muslim community. A Gallup poll released last week showed that current approval of U.S. leadership in countries in the Middle East and North Africa is "similar or lower than what it was in 2008," in some cases "erasing gains seen after the transition from the Bush administration to the Obama administration." In no country was the approval rating above 30 percent. It's fair to conclude that this experiment in engagement with Islam has failed.
As Mr. Choudary indicated, Islamist "engagement" with the United States is a holy obligation. Last week, the Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC), the leading proponent of global Shariah law, held a conference on "Islam and Muslims in America" in cooperation with the American Islamic College in Chicago. OIC Secretary General Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu called on Muslims in the United States to become involved in all aspects of American life, including local and national politics. The Obama administration gave its imprimatur to the gathering by sending its own small portion, including special envoy to the OIC, Rashad Hussain, Dalia Mogahed who works with the Office of Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships, and Farah Pandith, the State Department's special representative to Muslim communities.
The OIC is currently campaigning to have so-called "Islamophobia" recognized by the international community as a form of racism prosecutable under international law. This would include any expression the Islamists find offensive, which in practice would amount to a global gag order on any critical discussion of Islam. Last year, the Obama administration co-sponsored with Egypt a U.N. Human Rights Council resolution against "racial and religious stereotyping," which offered cover to the Islamists in their drive to put any criticism of their religion off limits.
The leading countries in the OIC are among the least religiously tolerant in the world. In most cases, Christians, Jews, Hindus and others may not freely practice their faith, and under Koranic law, converts from Islam face the death penalty. The OIC has stated that any freedoms in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights that conflict with Shariah do not apply to its members. If this is the type of cooperation the Obama administration is seeking to promote with Islam, then the "final hour" draws closer still. Mr. Obama said Jesus Christ died for his sins, but the United States continues to suffer for the president's mistakes.

The enemy has infiltrated every department, every division of the federal government and the Obama administration including the White House. The State Department, essentially being run by Islamic supremacists, have issued a travel alert to American citizens traveling to Europe to "exercise vigilance and caution in traveling." What does this even mean? The Obama administration is freeing Muslim terrorists, releasing Gitmo detainees, dropping charges against indicted dangerous jihadis and now they are telling us to .....duck?... continues here#2 German president welcomes Islam during unity speech (from Yahoo News)
