Allah moves in mysterious ways.
Polish community watches 2 Catholic churches shut down | News - Home
Hmm, so a neighborhood church no longer has enough parishioners and that's Allah's or Islam's fault? I guess if the Polish wanted to keep the community with their particular ethnic flavorings, they shouldn't have moved away in such large numbers.
Sarcasm....right?
Why are you so mean?
Reality is neither mean nor nice, it just is.
Please, please, PLEASE tell me that you're being sarcastic. If not:And so it starts. A foothold into government and then more, and more, until it reaches a majority in the state.
Religious laws, like Sharia (or Halakha or whatever) will not replace any state's laws, statutes or Constitutions. That's ridiculous scare-mongering.It will take a few years of manipulation and getting along, but eventually, Sharia Law will replace the State Constitution....or will have equal footing.
I know that you have no idea what you're talking about.You do know that there are zones in the UK and Europe, whereby Sharia Law rules that zone and local police stay out...right?

Muslim citizenss have every right to believe what they want to believe, live where they want to live, run for office, go to our schools, work in the US and so forth. Just like every other citizen. If you don't like their religion, that is YOUR problem, not their fault.
By the way, Michigan is 79% Christian, and 1% Muslim. There is no way "they" will "take over" Michigan during our lifetimes.

There are some non-binding independent religious mediation councils in the UK, and a few in the US too. Key word is NON-BINDING. They do not carry the force of law. They will never carry the force of law.
It's no different than a Jewish woman trying to obtain a get when she divorces her husband; a get has zero legal status, though it matters to the Jewish community. We are not going to hell in a hand basket because some Jews adhere to these non-legal structures.
No, wrong. I really am optimistic and confident that those elected will take their responsibilities seriously and execute them fairly. Really.
Reality is neither mean nor nice, it just is.
Years ago I had a Pakistani friend. Great guy, had a full time job, worked hard. Which he supplemented with credit card fraud. And so we'd talk maybe once a week, sometimes for an hour or more. We did that for a few years and then he finally moved away. But you know something, they really don't think like we do. There's no place in their world for uppity females. And it was the one thing about America that really incensed them, the uppity females.
Please dont bring logic, rational thinking and common sense into this debate..

Hell, even I don't like uppity females. They incense me as well. That's why I get really pissed off when some TV shows feature females running an elite police squad. That rarely happens. Usually, there is a female producing, writing or directing that show.....or a combo of all 3.
Christians spent centuries killing each other for scraps of land in Europe. They then sailed around the globe, enslaved millions of people, worked them to their deaths in the New World, and continued to kill each other in increasingly large numbers -- usually over territory, occasionally because of religion. It is only after a massive paroxysm of violence (including a multi-million victim genocide) in the middle of the 20th Century that Judeo-Christian societies really calmed down.I'm dead serious.
Their history in the rest of the world, speaks for itself.
lolThey are just starting to get a foothold in the USA. We may not see it in our lifetime, but if allowed to continue, it will permeate and further destroy our way of life and out government.
Nice. Nothing like a little not-so-subtle anti-semitism in the afternoon.I support Israel to the max in it's need to defend itself....I do not support American Jews, who have dominated Hollywood and the movie industry for years and constantly contribute to liberal ideology and Democrat politicians.

These people in Mich. are selling out their Freedom.

Well, I'm not optimistic about this........but I also hope that I'm wrong. That does happen on occasion.
That's basically what I am saying, when I state that a good guy with a gun, is needed to stop a bad guy with a gun. It's reality....it just .....is.

What does this mean, uppity females? What are you talking about?
Sorry, but I really don't see what these responses had to do with a couple of these posts. Nor do I see what this last response has to do with the thread. What uppity females?
From the Merriam-Webster:
1) acting as if you are more important than you really are, do not have to do what you are told to do, etc.
2) putting on or marked by airs of superiority; arrogant, presumptuous
It also says it's a variant of persnickety, first known use, 1880.
It's not just the way American women act, but also the way they dress, that really incenses Muslims.
Of course you don't see it......
How about Rosie O'Doughnuts for example, Whoopie "the crotch grabber" Goldberg, Moocheel "the hypocrite" obama....just for starters.
I didn't really mean it in that way. My impression was that they did not like the way our women publicly act or dress. The behavior of our women literally incensed them. They really didn't want women out in public. And they definitely didn't want them in the workplace. Their concern is one of marital fidelity. Based on the countless ubiquitous affairs I've witnessed over the years, in that I have to agree. They have a definite point. For many women the male dominated workplace is all about the connections that favor upward mobility; that is their priority. So the Muslims aren't too far off the mark.
"Women's rights" though have been a huge plus for guys like me. I enjoy being a sinner way too much. And I really love my bacon.

Of course, part of that "calming down" included dozens of proxy wars, bombing the snot out of small Southeast Asian nations (to the point that unexploded ordinance is STILL killing people).
Oh, and lots of terrorism too -- ranging from the KKK to the Weather Underground to Baader Meinhof to the IRA to Tim McVeigh. No one has a monopoly on terrorism.
Throughout history, the Muslim / Arab / Persian world has been equally warlike as the West, and often more sophisticated. In terms of art, science, mathematics, and law, the Arab world put Europe to shame in the Middle Ages. They've also generally been far less imperialist and genocidal.
I.e. I'm quite aware of their "history in the world," and I don't see any particular cause for alarm with one municipality electing several Muslims to the city council.
lol
So you're pushing back the Day of Doom to when, exactly? 2175 perhaps? Based on 0.9% of Americans being Muslim today? If that's the case, I think you have more to fear from Hindus.
By the time that Dreaded Day happens, the Muslims will be assimilated. Meaning that they'll be just like the rest of us -- a bunch of Fat Americans, sitting on the couch, eating chips and playing Madden Supreme Soccer 2176.
Nice. Nothing like a little not-so-subtle anti-semitism in the afternoon.
Ultimately, you have no facts, lots of slander, and an unhealthy dose of innuendo to "support" your position. Very impressive....
Does that mean that the Irish, Italians and Germans will take over in the year 2100? After all, they immigrated for decades, and certainly "got a foothold" by 1950. Why didn't they take over?When one entity gets a good foot hold on a country, they start getting pushy. It's happening all over Europe as we speak.
Your paranoid fantasies are not proof of anything.I may actually live to see blood in the streets across this country....
Are they? Let's look at some homicide rates.And, as you said, the Christians toned it down and all the while, the Muslims ramped it up .........and are still on the uptick!
Get educated about what, exactly?You don't like a little Jewish history in the afternoon? Get Real, get educated, stop listening to liberals.
lol... The Black Panther Party are a bunch of pikers compared to the IRA, who were active for 30 years, and killed around 1800 people, including 650 innocent civilians. In one day's attack (7/21/72) they set off 22 separate bombs in Belfast, and a bunch of hoax bombs threats, in less than 2 hours. And they were a bunch of Christians, killing other Christians, mostly for religious reasons. Go figure.Oh and btw....you left the Black Panther Party off your list. Responsible for many murders, arson's, drug crimes and rapes.
I hope you don't live to learn what the difference could potentially be.
