Some religions suck more than others. Islam sucks BIG!

Islam sucks
Joe Fisher

I'm not very fond of religion. The practice is merely normative
statements
without credible positive statements to support them and is largely
determined by socialization. This is why many people just adopt the
religion
in which they were raised.

This is also why you don't find many white people attending a mosque or
why
people raised in Orthodox Judaism don't embrace Christ. These cultural
differences are nothing more than subtleties in the cesspool of
religion.

Some religions suck more than others, though, and one of them is Islam.
It's
not Muslims that I dislike - I just dislike their faith.

Many atrocities have been carried out in the name of Islam. Terrorism
is a
prime example. Some complain that movies involving terrorism
predominantly
and unfairly portray terrorists as Muslims.

But I fail to see how this is an "unfair" portrayal. Where are the
terrorists fighting on behalf of Christianity, Hinduism or Judaism?
They
exist, but they're on the ultra-fringe. I don't think Americans act as
sub-human as the Palestinians did following Sept. 11, dancing in the
streets
and rejoicing. That brief moment in history will forever leave me
apathetic
to their fate, if not hopeful for their demise.

What about the Crusades? What about the Israeli treatment of the
Palestinians? These are religious acts of violence carried out by
non-Muslims. I must be wrong.

But am I? The treatment of the Palestinians by the Israelis is not a
religious matter; it's a security matter. The people of Israel enjoy a
fairly secular society where fear, not faith, determines policy. The
Crusades weren't just about God. They were about expanding trade and
general
control. Hijackers and suicide bombers actually think they're going to
get
some sort of eternal reward for this. How stupid is that?

Islam also presents a danger to the welfare of many due to its
influence in
Middle Eastern and North African governments. Islam subjugates hundreds
of
millions of women, sexual minorities and other religions where it's the
law
of the land. The over-emphasis on treating people's faiths equally is
the
reason most vocal people are on the anti-war side of the debate.

Fortunately, we have a secular public school system in America that can

deprogram the children of Muslim immigrants and help them adopt more
productive values.

Unfortunately, we have countries like Saudi Arabia where children are
taught
to make friends with Muslims and adopt their traditions.

Did you know that in Islam, reading the holy books of other religions
is a
serious sin? So is screwing your brother-in-law apparently. A man in
Saudi
Arabia recently was convicted of raping his sister-in-law with
punishment of
six years in jail and 4,750 lashes, to be administered 95 at a time.
This is
the part the Saudis got right.

Violent rapists should be dealt with brutally. The Saudis screwed it
all up
when the court ruled that the woman did not consent but still committed
the
grave offense of banging an in-law. She will receive six months in
prison
and 65 lashes. Don't you just love the Islamic world where the women
are
raped, then beaten?

Muslim extremists also get the honor of being lumped together with the
likes
of the KKK. Apparently, they are one of the last groups that don't
consider
anti-Semitism a taboo. Munich 1972 is a good example. So is the past
week. A
Pakistani official said Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl's
last
words before having his throat slit were, "I am a Jew, and my father is
a
Jew."

I'm aware this isn't an exact representative of all Muslims, but
compared to
other religious fanatics, it happens quite frequently. Furthermore, if
governments that perpetuate such atrocities exist, there must be enough

support for these values among their citizens. Being that the women
probably
can't vote, they are hopelessly trapped in the result of one of the
most
destructive religions of all time.

This should tell you there is something uniquely flawed with this one.

Turkey is the shining light amidst all this madness. There's an
understanding that a Muslim society can prosper, as long as it
downplays the
whole Islam thing. Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, the founder of modern Turkey,

understood this.

"Countries may vary, but civilization is one, and for a nation to
progress,
it must take part in this one civilization," he said. "The decline of
the
Ottomans began when, proud of their triumphs over the West, they cut
their
ties with the European nations. This was a mistake which we will not
repeat."

I'd like to close by saying that the Muslim world is the poorest, most
illiterate, backward, unhealthy, unenlightened, deprived and weakest of
all
the races. I don't have to defend these words because I didn't say
them.
Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf did at a science and technology
conference last week. Good job Pervez. The first step to recovery is
admitting you have a problem.

This is what the atheist USA stands for:

NEA, Gay Militants: Joined At The Hip
Lee Duigon

If a private citizen tells his neighbor's children that they ought to
try
gay sex, he might wind up in a correctional facility. If he talks that
way
to your 13-year-old son, you'll want him put away--pronto.

But when this very same behavior, toward the same children, is
displayed by
adults who belong to America's biggest teachers' union, most parents
simply
let them do it. In fact, they pay them to.

The NEA is committed to the cause of militant homosexuality. It's the
richest, most politically powerful union in America, and it has daily
access
to most of America's children. And it wants to recruit them for the
homosexual lifestyle.

Lean this equation, America:

Public schools=The homosexual agenda

If you don't believe it, visit nea-glc.org/, the website of the
National
Education Association's Gay and Lesbian Coalition. There, among their
"great
achievements" in shaping NEA policy, the homosexual militants cite the
NEA's
promotion of "the lesbian-gay-bisexual curriculum" and "family life
education... regarding the diversity of sexual orientation."

The NEA has also campaigned for the proclamation of
"Gay-Lesbian-Bisexual-Transsexual History Month" (try putting that on
a
T-shirt), homosexual studies at Catholic colleges--and, of course,
homosexual "marriage."

The people of Massachusetts know the teachers' union's commitment to
"gay
marriage." Aline Isaacson of GLSEN (Gay-Lesbian-Straight Education
Network),
the media's favorite poster gal for "gay marriage", is
also--surprise!--a
paid consultant to the Massachusetts teachers' union. Paid in taxpayer
dollars, to boot. (You may remember Massachusetts GLSEN from a few
years ago
as the organizers of graphic, intensely perverted sex "workshops" for
public
school children--a scandal that came to be known as "fist-gate.")

Ms. Isaacson, according to the grass-roots Article 8 Alliance, these
days
makes it a full-time job lobbying state legislators to keep them from
jumping ship on "gay marriage" and voting for the Bill of Address
which
would remove the outlaw Supreme Judicial Court judges who imposed this
oxymoron on the people of Massachusetts. Supported by taxpayers'
money, she
makes daily, face-to-face visits to individual lawmakers. Nice work if
you
can get it.

Too bad you couldn't make it to the gym teachers' state convention in
New
Jersey, in February. It wasn't about volleyball. For public school gym
teachers, Job One--according to the convention's floor displays,
handouts,
posters, and workshop topics (all of which I saw personally)--is
getting the
kids comfy with homosexuality. To this end, they handed out a
"resource
guide"--handsomely produced, slick, paid for largely by Fleet Bank
Inc.--intended for distribution in all the public schools. (For more
information, see my article, "Now It's the Gym Teachers," in the
February
archive of the Chalcedon website, chalcedon.edu.)

You would have seen even more of the same at "Twenty Years of Great
Sex
(Ed)" last year, a national conference of "sex educators" hosted by
Rutgers,
New Jersey's taxpayer-funded state university. Again, there was no
effort to
hide the educators' whole-hearted penchant for homosexuality...
