Controversial Islamist author slams Darwin


Creationism doesn't end with Christianity

"I think there is not a single person who has read my book and who does not believe there is no evolution," he said.

There's a whole lot of negatives in that sentence.
Anyhow, I am also completely unsurprised. If you honest;y believe that God wants you to wage war against people who do not hold your faith, and that he will reward you for becoming a martyr, then the idea that God made the world by snapping his fingers, well, that doesn't sound so crazy. I mean, martyrdom requires you to really commit to something, and believing in Creationism is a pretty casual thing.

I wonder...
Many Christians want the end of the world.
Many Muslims seem to be working towards that (Sorry, but its true).
What more natural an alliance could you wish for?

(I really have to read his book "A Historical Lie: the Stone Age".)

Fox News Is Only As Reliable As The Onion


Fox News: If I read it, it must be true

On Tuesday, Fox News morning show “Fox & Friends” aired at least eight segments on a purported “news” story that was actually a parody article written by a publication similar to The Onion.
The backstory: Last week in the town of Lewiston, Maine, a group of Somalian Muslim middle school students were the subject of a cruel prank when their peers placed a ham steak next to them in order to personally offend the students. School officials filed a report because the students considered the act to be a hate/bias crime.

This actual story was then spoofed by a parody site called Associated Content, which made up quotes and details, such as the school’s intention to “create an anti-ham ‘response plan.’”

On Tuesday, Fox & Friends reported these parody quotes and details as actual news. Poking fun at the students, hosts asked whether ham was “a hate crime…or lunch?” and showed screen shots of ham sandwiches, starving Somalians, belching, animal noises, and mock “reenactments” of the incident. Ironically, the hosts assured viewers several times, “We’re not making this up!”

No, I'm not making this up

Muslim Kids Hate Pigs, School

A school in Amsterdam will no longer be teaching students about farm living, after Muslim pupils began trashing the classroom when the subject of pigs came up

its pretty rare that I agree with anything the hate-mongering-muslim-fearing LGF says, BUT...
this is nuts.
It seems to me that these kids have learned that, if something offends their (apparently) delicate sensibilities, violence is the immediate answer.
Of course, this doesn't strike me as markedly different than some of the responses to being taught evolution so...
(for the record, Jews have been anti-porcine for much longer...)

Morocco: Writing About Religious Jokes


Is just writing about religious jokes a crime?

Maybe.
Nichane magazine's editor and one of its reporters are accused of defaming Islam and damaging public morality in an article about religious jokes.


I really wish I had the text of the article. If the article was about religious jokes in the same way The Aristocrats is about a particular joke, I can understand the issue. I don't AGREE with the idea that it should be illegal, but I can at least see the position (nuts as it is).
However, if it really is just about these jokes, what the jokes mean in the culture, and where the jokes come from, then, again, at least some aspects of Islam are showing that they are, in fact, exactly what the world believes them to be.

Two things:
Freedom doesn't come without freedom of speech
Tolerance doesn't mean liking something

The Palestinians Loved The Holocaust


Mohammad Amin al-Husayni


So, the next time someone mentions to you that the Jews brought all this Palestinian violence on themselves, tell them to go learn something.
The Palestinians have always hated the jews and been more than happy to be violent about it when poltics (i.e. the British wanting to turn Palestine into a Jewish state before WWII) didn't go their way.
The fact that one of the Palestinian leaders wanted to follow the same road as Hitler really puts a new light on how Israel behaves now. While the Israelies may not be acting as well as they might, they aren't going with 'the final solution' either.

So...maybe...just maybe...the conflict isn't about the obvious thing, maybe the Palestinians aren't quite the victims they appear to be.
Maybe, as those who don't keep their heads in the sand believe, its deeper and has been going on alot longer.
Maybe, just maybe, its simply hate.

And maybe, just maybe, its Islam.
