Bush seems to believe that by spreading democracy we can end Islamic Terrorism.
- Ask the Israeli’s that with Gaza next door to them. Hamas got elected to office not necessarily because the Palestinian’s wanted war with Israel but because the Palestinian electorate wanted to punish the P.L.O. for allowing corruption. Now Hamas runs Gaza.
- Next we have the case of Iran. While not a secular democracy they elected the current President primarily to improve their economic condition. Unfortunately he seems to have an agenda to arm his nation with nuclear weapons.
So just who is Bush trying to help here? Certainly not the “bastions of democracy” like Saudi Arabia and the U.A.E! In many Muslim nations however fundamentalists would win the election because the electorates would indeed favor their radical agenda!
What is missing is a crucial ingredient! What is that ingredient? Two words Mr. Bush needs to learn! “SECULAR LIBERALISM” is the answer.
Scriptural Islam is no more closed minded than Scriptural Christianity and Scriptural Judaism! By the way I am not an atheist but a liberal Christian. However both Christians and Jews underwent a modernization process after centuries of madness. Islam is just undergoing this process now! But comparing their scripture with our scripture does not give either a humanitarian superiority. Oh please don’t give me the passages about the 77 virgins in the Koran because there are also friendlier passages in the Koran. The issue is the “reader”. Which passages of any scripture does the believer wish to pay attention to! That is the issue. Today in Christianity and Judaism we just like to “make believe” we don’t have “fun passages”. So in case you missed some in my prior posts let me list them here.
The following are examples of what Judaism and Christianity would be like IF we did not mature with the help of SECULAR LIBERALISM! We have all been lead to believe that scriptural Islam is inferior to scriptural Christianity and Judaism. The Koran gives you 77 virgins when you die but our bible gives you a virgin for plunder in this life!
Numbers 31:17
17 Now kill all the boys. And kill every woman who has slept with a man, 18 but save for yourselves every girl who has never slept with a man.
What stops us from plundering a virgin today Mr. Bush? Secular Liberalism!
Genocide anyone? Why not do it Bible style!
Deuteronomy 20:16
16 However, in the cities of the nations the LORD your God is giving you as an inheritance, do not leave alive anything that breathes.
Joshua 6:21
21 They devoted the city to the LORD and destroyed with the sword every living thing in it-men and women, young and old, cattle, sheep and donkeys”
What stops us from Bible based genocide today Mr. Bush? Secular Liberalism!
What a waste! In the above they kill all the livestock! Our bible’s God in other passages did not remove the genocide but did remove the senseless waste of livestock!
Deuteronomy 2:33-35
33 the LORD our God delivered him over to us and we struck him down, together with his sons and his whole army. 34 At that time we took all his towns and completely destroyed them-men, women and children. We left no survivors. 35 But the livestock and the plunder from the towns we had captured we carried off for ourselves.
Now that’s better we cannot “waste” plunder now can we? Notice men, woman AND CHILDREN are to be killed! That must be what is termed “pro-life”. Now you might think this is like the Nazi’s creating a “Final Solution” for the nasty Canaanite problem.
What stops us Mr. Bush from following a solid bible based “final solution” today? Answer “SECULAR LIBERALISM”!
But no the Bible is superior. Genocide must be done in an “earth friendly” manner! We don’t want to despoil the delicate flacura and fauna with the litter of corpses of men, woman and children now do we? Can the Muslims “boast” EARTH FRIENDLY PASSAGES for the conduct of genocide? Silly Muslims!
Deut. 20:19
19When you lay siege to a city for a long time, fighting against it to capture it, do not destroy its trees by putting an ax to them, because you can eat their fruit. Do not cut them down. Are the trees of the field people, that you should besiege them?
What separates our society from this idiocy Mr. Bush? SECULAR LIBERALISM!
The next time you see a Muslim woman covered up remember good ole ST. Paul who said:
1Corth. 7:1
1 Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman.
Mr. Bush, what separates our society from this idiotic nonsense? Secular liberalism!
President Bush does not get it! But then again we still in this society allow Christian fundamentalists to decide our national policy stopping stem cell research and getting us even more involved in the Mideast so we can hasten the second coming! What is going to stop this madness? SECULAR LIBERALISM! Lets take our country back! As Americans our concern should not be with katusa rockets going 25 miles into northern Israel (bad as that is)! Rather we should be concerned with the fact that North Korea has nuclear weapons and is building ICBM’s to launch those missiles at the USA! Besides Muslims are killing Christian civilians on a genocidal level in the Sudan but no one seems to give a damn! Let’s get our priorities straight Mr. Bush and stop pandering to the Christian right and Israeli lobby!
Time for the silent majority which is American’s middle class, and those who aspire to be, to stand up and take back our country! How will that be done? By SECULAR LIBERALISM that’s how!
