Moslem Outrage Typical of the Religion of War
Moslem Outrage Typical of the Religion of War
I find it very hard to believe that no one at the Collegian found the events happening in Basra and most likely in every Mosque in the world newsworthy.
On Tuesday, speaking to professors in Germany, the Pope quoted the 14th Century Byzantine emperor Paleologus as saying, "Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." As any scholar of Islam would know immediately, this quote is absolutely true in its evaluation of Mohammed and his religion of War, Islam. The Pope was merely quoting Paleologus as an example of dated thoughts about Muslims, and to possibly create new dialogue on the issue of the most violent religion the world has seen. But, the real news shouldn't be what the Pope said, but how Moslems reacted to it. Violently. Burning effigies of the Pope. Throwing Molitov Cocktails at churches in Tulkarem, Tubas near Jenin, three churches in Nablus and one in Gaza. Not to mention the killing of a Catholic Nun and her bodyguard in Somalia, one of the most violent Moslem areas in the world.
When the reaction to a simple quotation is thus, you do not have to wonder why it was made in the first place.
When was the last time a Jew has thrown himself in a german subway station and blown it up. Or when was the last time a Christians in Somalia destroyed entire villages of men, women and children. Where is the violent protest and murders of Madonna and her sparkling cross that she hangs herself on in obvious mockery of the Catholic church and Christians worldwide.
That is the difference.
Discuss it at http://DoctorAwkward.blogspot.com, where anyone can say what they want for open discussion on the issue and not have to worry about being filtered out by the Collegian or any other media.
Here are a few links:
