  In the spirit of the thread, I would just like to say:

  Islam is not a religion of peace.

  during her second marriage, i attended the weekly meeting and sunday meetings (by my own choice) with a family in the very small town we lived, since my mom didn’t attend.

  Wouldn’t be surprised if Simon has to scramble to buy more SQL space after this post. Good lord.

  Another note: there are two ways Muslims are guaranteed paradise.

  1 - kill or be killed in the name of Allah.

  2- emigrate in the name of Allah.

  #2 seems glossed over so many times-especially for the purposes of threads like this. For those Muslims that don’t want to kill, no worries. Just move to another country and refuse to integrate. This is exactly what is happening to Europe.

  To integrate would mean to accept that whatever religious law you might have now comes second to the laws of the new home country.

  I think you said you like the “melting pot” analogy. To be part of the melting pot, you have to accept being in the pot, not replacing it.

  The Bible is much like the Quran in that regard.

  Yes, those elements are present in the Torah. But herein lies an important difference, in my opinion. The Biblical passages don’t come with prescriptive mandates to push Jewish law above secular law. In other words, there can be a separation of synagogue and state.

  But it goes far deeper than that. The violent passages in the Bible are grammatically historical. They read like this: “God told Joshua to <list of things that seem quite immoral>.” It would be quite different if the passage were prescriptive for all worshipers forever: “God told Joshua to <list of horrible things to do>. Likewise so should you do until the entire earth is for Yahweh.”

  This type of mandate, valid for all time, for the followers to execute, is not found in the Bible. Ruling is for Muslims only - solidifying a tight bond between mosque and state. The non-Muslims pay a poll tax and submit to second class status, and any complaints gets your head sawed off with a butter knife.

  There is a reason why Isis-type Muslims do what they do and then point directly to the Quran and insist they are justified: because the justification is plainly and grammatically there. You don’t have Christian groups pointing to Jesus and claiming a terrotist mandate. It’s apples and... cruise ships.

  Note: we haven’t even talked about Mohammad and how he is the perfect and excellent example of conduct, to be imitated by all Muslims.

  Islam is not an ethnicity or race.

  @recovering:

  I have not read the entire thread but I find it hard to believe Simon is trying to convince you that all Muslims are evil. I would be willing to bet you are reaching a bit there.

  As with any religion, individual members have different levels of knowledge, enthusiasm, and belief. And no doubt some Muslims cherry pick different parts of the religion to live by while ignoring other parts - as do some Christians, JWs, Jews, etc.

  But regardless of what any individual Muslim may or may not do, we can always go back to the religion to find its official standing. That is the pertinent point, IMHO. There is no room within the writings that make up Islam for a separation of mosque and state. There is no room in Islam for a “Draw the prophet” contest. There is no room in Islam for homosexuals.

  Some Muslims make room - but they are being good Muslims by being bad Muslims.

  Of course anything could happen, but how likely is it really?

  Pfft. It only took three posts before it was applied to Trump admin. I haven’t gotten into the show yet. But I’ve heard applications of it by late night talk shows toward Trump. If it’s just a thinly veiled attempt to make an anti-Trump political statement, then I’m not interested.

  So honestly - is the show a political statement? Or is it a good story? I’m willing to give it a shot if it’s a good story with decent character developement ... and no glaring internal contradictions (like what Star Wars has become)

  Well, you see, we are talking about “overlapping imminents.”
