Hey folks,
"Hey Pete. You were talking about your growing uncertainty of what some call peaceful Islam. You have also spoke out against what you see as the Mainstream Media and others being able to attack Christianity without reprisals. I thought that you might like to know you are not alone. Check out this piece in Human Events by Doug Giles. It almost sounds like something you would write. Peace to you."

Man, don’t cha love how the Blame 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 as true what some atheists, secularists and prattling gay activists say about Christians, you’d think the church is chomping at the bit to chop off some heads of unbelievers, glory to Gawd!I have nothing to add.
Yep, if you were to believe the barf belched out by the BS brokers on the Left, you’d stagger away Kool Aid drunk 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 charity-vacant, vicious cult that’s vying for the opportunity to seize the whip and whip us good.
Yes, the postmodern 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 Lindsay Lohan at the stake, stone Jay Alexander in a nearby gravel pit and governmentally ramrod Christianity down everyone’s pie hole.
I haven’t seen this kind of ham-fisted, forced PR, farcical facade being parlayed 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 gaff, have grabbed the wheel and have effectively steered saints out of any erroneous, detrimental ditch.
Not so with Islam.
A few years ago mi amigo, Robert Spencer unleashed a book, Religion of Peace: Why Christianity Is and Islam Isn’t, which shredded the chipper Islam spin. Bob showed those who can still be shown anything factual the massive and fundamental differences between Islam and Christianity. That they are not equal no matter how much the blah blah blatherers of political correctness purport them to be. Their beliefs are not similar, nor their practices, nor their means to spreading their message—and to think otherwise, postmodern Pollyanna, could cost you your ass.
Spencer pointed 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 always rejected it.
• The Koran does not invite interpretation, and Muslim leaders refuse to discuss how to fit their beliefs into modern society.
• Political differences and unwanted international interference are not, in fact, the cause of the turmoil in Iraq and Middle Eastern antagonism towards the west.
• Jews, Christians and peoples of other faiths (or no faiths) are equally at risk from militant Islam.
• 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.
You and I both know that regardless of what a few loopy CINO’s (Christians in name only) have done via violence in the name of the Father that it is 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 the Christian scripture green light your demise or anyone else’s.
Additionally, Christians aren’t longing for TBN to replace DC 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 on behalf of militant Islam, that if they had it their way, you, the secularist, would be a deceased grease stain on God’s green earth.
Therefore, gay guy, 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.
Radical Muslims, on the other hand, are the ones you need to sweat—because their book has zero tolerance for the likes of Neil Patrick Harris, Christopher Hitchens and Jay Alexander—or anyone for that matter, who doesn’t lock step. You can bet your backside that if uncut Islam were in charge, Michael Bloomberg would be history, Drew Barrymore would be nevermore and Elton John would never be seen again.
The Judeo-Christian worldview (and subsequently, the great western traditions it under girds) is the only powerful cudgel in existence to ward off militant Islam. That’s what makes the Left’s lies about Christ’s Church and the Left’s desires to diminish it so diabolical. If the church’s presence and power gets marginalized via these secularists’s anti-Christian propaganda, then all I’ve got to say is, “I hope everyone is cool with wearing burkas.”
