Christianity can't be secular, Islam can't be secular, Christians and Muslims can be secular, this man is not a secular Muslim he is a theocrat.
I'm pretty sure I said, "no religion is secular" before you did. Yes the Iman is a theocrat as are most clergy of any given faith and in this country it is a protected right. Is that a problem for you?
I don't support theocracy so fail.
Apparently it is a problem for you. However, not supporting theocracy doesn't make you any less a radical than the Imam.
It doesn't say when that law was on the books and your own article states:
"In the years following independence from Britain, the death penalty was gradually removed from the former colonial laws."
They were seldom if ever enforced. How about you list the last time somebody was prosecuted and sentenced to anything outside of a fine for consensual sexual intercourse with a person of the same gender.
So? The point is, death penalty laws for adultery and buggery were on the books in the US. And no, I don't have to jump through another one of your hoops to prove you wrong because once was suffcient.
Uganda? Really scraping the bottom of the barrel aren't we? A) This Uganda bill hasn't passed, B) your second article is a blog and I don't see anywhere in the screen caps of the lobbying report where it says what the blog says it says, and C) your wiki article actually demonstrates that the American Evangelicals have in fact said they oppose the law, perhaps you can find me a quote in which they endorse that law? I know they're homophobic Christ punchers but to my knowledge they haven't called for the criminilzation of homosexuality.
Again, the point is, some American Christians are indeed calling for the death penalty for homosexuals. But you are swimming in denile so here is your quote...
[Pastor] Scott Lively, one of three evangelicals who went to Uganda at in 2009 to preach against gays, says he doesn’t support Uganda’s bill that would punish homosexuality by life imprisonment or death. Nevertheless, he said, on my radio show Monday night, it’s
“a step in the right direction.”

Name the head honcho of all of Christianity. There are 5 different sects of Islam each with their own Ulama's, however, the Ijma (consensus opinion) in all five sects (Hanafi, Maliki, Shafi'i, Hanbali, and Ja'fari) is that adpostasy, sodomy, adultery, and/or pre-marital sex are capital and/or corporal offenses.
You've stalled long enough, so name the Ulamas for all five sects of Islam.
Christianity also has sects and their central leaders are: Catholics = Pope Benedict. Protestant Evangelicals = Billy Graham and Pat Robertson. Mormons = President Monson.
I'm not the Ulama, the Ulama is the authoritative councils within the 5 sects of Islamic Fiqh which determine Islamic dogma.
Ahh, you could have fooled me with your incredible expanse of knowledge of Islam. So if you're not an Ulama then you most certainly would qualify as a Mullah, Mr. Ferris Mullah.
Islamism is political Islam, IE an Islamist is a Muslim who supports theocratic initiatives; such as, the implementation of Sharia law.
Okay, so you know what Islamism is, but you failed to tell me the difference between Islamism and Islam. I can only assume you did so because then you would have to make a clear distinction between the political Islamists and the religious Islamics and you know damn well that the Imam is an religious Islamic and not an political Islamist.
I would certainly be opposed to building a militia headquarters next to the site of the OKC bombing.
No you wouldn't, because you're a radical political hypocrit just like most of your ilk.
No I think a shrine to an ideology which supports the criminilzation of apostasy, homosexuality, adultery, and pre-mariital sex along with gender discrimination celebrates oppression.
Nah, you're just having your little fun at someone's else's expense. You use that Southern Strategy of yours and wield it like a club to bash whatever flavor of race or ethnicty of the week or month that suits your fuqin political agenda. This week it's Muslims, last month it was Mexicans, before that it was blacks, whose next, Asians, Jews, Samoans, what?
I do actually, actual victims of 9-11 have already been financially compensated with appx. $3.5 million going to each civilian killed or seriously inured and $4.6 million going to each first responder killed or seriously injured.
Well goody for you, now provide a link so that I may see it too.
And as employees of the city they have some of the best health insurance in the country.
Apparently they don't or they wouldn't have gotten that $3.5 million you mentioned above. Thats why you need to provide a link, boy.
Lovely. It's going to look like a victory mega funeral parlor. And to think they're going to spend all that money and take the next 10 years to build that POS knowing full well that hardly anyone will visit because lets face it, it just won't be the same without the giant grotesque hole to satisfy people's morbid curiosity, now will it?.....

They aren't building a swimming pool, theaters, and a gymnasium, they are building a Mosque. If this is a community center when will they be offering religious services for non-Muslim members of the community?
Yes Virginia, they are planning to build a swimming pool, gym and theaters as well a separate floors for Muslims to pray.
No your article quotes other articles that don't provide evidence for their assertions it does not provide one solitary scrap of evidence that the CIA funded these madrassas in which these foreign Jihadists were trained. No documentation, no quotes from CIA officials, nothing, zip, zero, except baseless speculation. Apparently an article quoting a journalist without any evidence = well sourced. :roll:
Well hunny bunny, they didn't just pull all that information out of their arse if thats what you're implying. So if you want more detailed information then start a new thread and together we can do the all the fact finding and research your little heart desires. :roll:
That is the "American Influence in Saudi Arabia," cited by OBL as justification for murdering Americans.
Yeah, thats what I said alright.
The difference is in degree not in kind both Imam Rauf and OBL support Sharia based theocracy. And Rauf isn't building a community center, this is a victory Mosque that will not be offering religious services to any other members of the community.
See my previous reply to your failure to define the difference between Islamist and Islamic. And you are wrong, the Imam is going to build a community center no matter how much you stomp your little feetsy's.
Well dang, then why didn't America invade Hamas and bomb the crap out them like they did Iraq? Oh thats right, the US insisted the Palestinians hold an election that helped to put Hamas in power. Oooopsie.
Because Hamas is a terrorist organization that intentionally murders innocent men, women, and children.
Hamas doesnt think they're terrorists, instead they think they're defending their homes and land and I haveta tell ya, 95% of the world thinks so too. So there ya go, nuff said.
Has the Sudanese government ever attacked the U.S.? What would you think of someone who refused to denounce the Sudanese government for their acts of genocide?
Well, what do you think about the good reverend Franklyn Graham supporting a genocidal maniac because now get this, he finds him "reasonable?"
He is not innocent of those things which I have accused him of, he has not broken any laws, but he is an Islamist POS attempting to build a victory Mosque at Ground Zero.
Nope, you are seriously mistaken in your radical beliefs and you are no different than a Goebbels in your repetitive use of hate propaganda to scapegoat a minority in this country for your political agenda.
