thanks for the introduction....he said it all: "this is not about theology, it is about politics."

Americans are adamant that there is no connection between their acts and reactions to those acts..it has to be something about a religion, or envy, or just evil...nothing they do EVER calls for a harsh response from anyone.

These "exposes" of Islam are nothing more than a smoke screen to get us focused on an "evil" religion which is supposed to be responsible for Muslim reaction to our actions...we are all good, they are all bad and bad because of their religion.

Is it really that hard to see this as yet another example of anti-semitism gone wild..like against the Jews a few decades ago? Of course Christians will emphasize the differences and say this is nothing like, and give you examples too...they have to because it's SO obvious otherwise.

Now a Christian will say, "well, we know now that that was PURE prejudice...but Muslims......" Of course they know it NOW, but they believed it THEN....that's the point.

In some future date they will admit they were wrong in this case too, and they'll go to confession and feel perfectly wonderful that their Jesus FORGIVES.
