I agree with Pat. Islam is a poisonous, predatory, supremacist, totalitarian political ideology masquerading as a religion.

I am starting to understand the argument for taxing religions although the sources I’ve heard it from are usually snide — Richard Dawkins is the first example.
I would be fine with the taxing of religious enterprises since I believe regulation and oversight keeps everyone honest. There are very little checks and balances in religions. I think having to open the books to the public of where the money goes in any religion. I also would require the same of non-for-profits for the same reason.
A not for profit organization is still a business.

Yo, Pat,

Why Islam is not a religion?

Coz it showed you and your likes as who you truly are = Manicheans disguised as Christians = NOT Monotheists -

For when you and your ilk equate Jesus with the One God of Abraham you end up positing TWO GODS – One is GOOD = your Sweet_Jeezus_God – the other is the Evil God = your Satan whom you and your ilk are so fond of talking about -

In short, what does not look like your Jeezus_God you deem it to be of the Devil – be it Muslim or Buddhist, etc.-

Go figure ~

For those interested in Christian Monotheism as opposed to Pat’s and his likes Christotheism, here is a MUST READ book:

Radical Monotheism and Western Culture

Helmut Richard Niebuhr

Can be found at Google’s books -

QuentinK! As usual you are the one judging people. I live on 4th street just 3 blocks from 7th, down in the hood. And people like Stanley Campbell make me want to vomit. Sure he helps people and says he follows Jesus. But with him and the liberals anything goes. There are limits to their actions, sex drugs and rock n roll is their theme. You guys just do not get it.

gowader- funny now you speak for Jesus? Okeedokee. You rants do sound exactly the Muslim extremists you fear so much. The only difference is your prophets’ name. Not believing in Satan, he doesn’t actually scare me that much. Besides I live in the same world as Dick Cheney. Now THAT is scary.

Jesus seemed like a pretty cool guy from what I read. I have a good friend here in Rockford, Stanley Campbell who works endlessly helping to feed the hungry, house the homeless and correct injustices. He represents the best of Christianity to me.

Then I look to the east side and see ugly corporate churches prying dollars from their patrons with fear tactics and guilt. All so they can build bigger, uglier monoliths to themselves These are the money changers that Jesus rallied against. if Jesus were to show up in Rockford I bet it would be on seventh street, not Spring Creek and Mulford.

Come on Pat! I did not mean to strike a nerve in you and Quentink (yes I did) I thought you were the type of guy who could handle a good debate. I was simply quoating the words of Christ himself. So I quess you need to deal with him on this one. It is way above my pay grade.

Roberstson\’s comment was kind of like the Administrations comment that Fox is not a news organization.

gowader: Cool it with the Satan stuff, nutball. I’m tired of you and Richard and mike sanctimoniously evangelizing here. You guys are cartoonish stereotypes of religious bigots. Moreover, as I’ve said here on numerous occasions, none of you is well-versed on religious history or scholarly interpretations of scripture. You just spout dimwitted, bigoted platitudes.

Quentink,, One more thing, Richard is right about you. You are a follower of Satan and you didn’t even know it until now. You are either in or out with God. Not trusting in Christ automatically puts you outside looking in. You will be held accountable for any beleif other than Christ. You had better get with the program and accept the fact that Jesus 243169is the one and only way.

Quentink, Forgive my poor pronunciation. Issac was a descendent to Jesus. In other words he was several years ahead of Christ and a patron in Jewish culture.
