The D.C. Clothesline



I'm getting abused quite a bit over the Allen West post, especially in Libertarian groups. I want to tell you a story. I talk a lot about not censoring anyone and there is a reason for that. Because this is how I learn. I have Muslim friends from back in my college days. Up until about 8 months ago I was of the opinion that 99% of Muslims were good people and a few people were giving them a bad name.

I was challenged by someone to look deeper into what was going on. I was challenged to read the Quran and look at the life of Mohammed. I was challenged to start looking at Arabic websites and basically do anything I could to get a better picture of what was going on. What I found is that the radicals number in the tens of millions. It is not just a few bad apples that are spoiling it for everyone. So I started talking about it and writing about it.

You never have to agree with me or anyone else on this page. But I would issue the same challenge to many of you. I am a simple man but here is how I would break down the difference in a way that I can grasp it.

There are bad people in all faiths. There are people that do bad things in all faiths. Here is the difference I see. If a Christian (example) goes and shoots a bunch of people it is normally a result of them straying from their faith.

If a Muslim takes part in jihad and blows up a bunch of people it is normally because this person has delved deeper into their religion.

You can see it however you want but if we were still in the days of the crusades where people were either made to convert or summarily executed, I would hope that I would see the hate among my own religious leaders and leave. Yet Muslims don't ever want to do that. They accept that a large percentage of their Imams are hate filled and they just keep following. They tell me that they are different because they are peaceful. Yet they continue to follow a message of hate.

The last thing in the world I ever wanted to be was perceived as a bigot. To be completely honest, and this will upset many of my Christian friends, I have always been one of those "all roads lead to one place guys." I believe that good people get rewarded.

But I can neither endorse, nor keep silent about a religion that teaches it's people to kill me because I choose to worship a God other than their own.

I would challenge those who doubt to simply research. Christians have their whack jobs too (like Fred Phelps) but you have to look at the numbers. Fred Phelps is a black sheep that no Christian wants to claim. You can find tens of thousands of spiritual leaders just like him, if not worse, in a religion we call Islam.

Hit me with your best shot folks. I am not on a personal mission against Islam but to remain consistent with what I am trying to do, I must expose anything that I feel is part of the problem.

If someone can prove otherwise to me then I am open to that. But I am not going to sugar coat the intentions of a religion that wants me dead. -Dean

RELIGION OF PEACE MY @SS: The Media Hates Gracious Christianity and Loves Violent Islam

By Doug Giles / 21 October 2013


Man, don’t cha love how the Insane Stream Media and their soft-brain disciples make Christians out to be fish-stickered, bug-eyed equals to incensed Islam? If you were to accept what the White House, some atheists and prattling gay activists say about Christians as true, you’d think the Church is chomping at the bit to chop off some heads of unbelievers, glory to Gawd!

Yep, if you were to believe the barf belched out by the BS brokers on the ludicrous Left, you’d stagger away stupid with the belief that there is little disparity between conservative Christians and militant Muslims.

As a matter of fact, you probably would be bamboozled into believing that Islam is a peaceful, Little House on the Prairie religion being temporarily hijacked by Jihadist renegades, and Christianity … Christianity is the real vicious, charity-vacant cult that’s vying for the opportunity to seize the whip and whip us good.

Yes, the Insane Stream Media’s reality stylists are working their butts off trying to convince us TV-addled cattle of two primary things: 1) Violent jihad is not based on the Koran, and 2) All conservative Christians are theocrats ready to burn Elton John at the stake, stone Kim Kardashian in a nearby gravel pit and governmentally ramrod Christianity down everyone’s pie hole.

I haven’t seen this kind of ham-fisted, farcical façade foisted upon the public since Michael Jackson tried to make out with Lisa Marie in an attempt to convince us all he’d found true love in an adult of the opposite sex.

Look, there’s no denying violent things have been done by the Church and in the name of God, but that has been the exception and not the rule. In addition, when the Church has spent time with its head up its butt doing bogus things, the Church’s leaders have historically owned it when wrong, have not repeated the gaffe, have grabbed the wheel and have effectively steered saints out of any erroneous, detrimental ditch.

Not so with Islam.

In Robert Spencer’s book, Religion of Peace: Why Christianity Is and Islam Isn’t, Bob shows those who can still be shown anything factual the massive and fundamental differences between Islam and Christianity. They are not equal no matter how much the blatherers of political correctness purport them to be. Their beliefs are not similar, nor their practices, nor their means of spreading their message—and to think otherwise could cost you your ass.

Spencer points out the crystal clear facts that clash with the current anti-Christian hype, such as …

· Most Muslims do not condemn jihad.
· Christianity and Islam have neither similar traditions nor similar modern realities.
· Christian religious violence, real or imagined, does not mitigate the reality of jihad.
· A “Christian theocracy” in America is a figment of the Left’s imagination.
· The Islamic world has never developed the distinction between religious and secular law that is inherent in Christianity.
· Christianity has embraced reason—and Islam has embraced … “Silence! I kill you!”
· The Koran does not invite interpretation, and Muslim leaders refuse to discuss how to fit their beliefs into modern society.
· Youtube flicks, Political differences and unwanted international interference are not, in fact, the cause of the turmoil in Iraq and Middle Eastern antagonism toward the west.
· Jews, Christians and peoples of other faiths (or no faiths) are equally at risk from militant Islam—especially gays and women.
· The most determined enemies of western civilization may not be the jihadists at all, but the leftists who fear their churchgoing neighbors more than Islamic terrorists.

Listen, 21st century truth reconstructors … you’ve gotta relax. Please do us all a favor and go get healed from your bad Sunday school experience and lay down your church-grinding axe. Thinking people aren’t buying the “Christianity = Islam” smack.

Get real, Goofy. You and I both know that regardless of what a few loopy CINOs (Christians in name only) have done via violence in the name of the Father, it’s not in the body of Christian doctrine to hack off the noggin of the obstreperous. There’s not even an obscure passage in the Book of Revelation that some demented clod could twist like your Gumby doll to make Christian Scripture green-light your demise or anyone else’s. Additionally, Christians aren’t longing for TBN to replace D.C. as our nation’s headquarters.
So chill, you shrill shredders of Christianity.

On the flip side, it is within the pages of the Koran to convert, conquer or kill non-Islamic people. And I’m a thinkin’ that no matter how much you work to besmirch Christianity and misinform the public on behalf of militant Islam, that if said Muslims had it their way, you would be a deceased grease stain on God’s green earth.

Therefore, gay guy, loosen that neckerchief and relax on the anti-Christian rhetoric, okay? Atheists, dial down and go back to studying monkeys (or whatever you do), and secularists, switch to decaf and exhale because you guys are barking up the wrong tree in trying to paint Christians as a coercive, could-be-violent cabal like militant Islam.
