Why are Muslims in the U.S. sheltered when no other major faith is


BUTTERZ , Monday, 2nd of August 2010 05:01:04 AM

l was reading an article today about a man whose son died in the attacks on 
BUTTERZ
9/11. The town where he lives was going to erect a small memorial plaque in

city changed its mind about allowing the plaque. They based their decision 
Viewed 11505 times
on false information and ignorance.

''We perceive ourselves as 
a very warm, loving town,'' said Ruth Epstein, a Kent selectman and one of 
two town leaders to vote the plaque down. ''To disparage any one ethnic 
group is just against everything that we stand for here.''
/>FACT: Islam is NOT an ethnic group, it is an ideology that promotes a 
religion as well as a form of government.

Epstein 
continued''We have at least one Muslim family living here with children 
and it — it would be just awful to have them see something like that,'' 


Apparently she has not checked the history books being used in 
public schools in her community that go out of their way to disparage 
Christian students by blaming them for violence allegedly done in the name 
of Christianity hundreds of years ago. Those history books, by the way, 
also shelter Muslim children from ever having to read about 1400 years of 
violence done in the name of Islam by mujahideen who are praised in the 
Qur'an.

But this concept of coddling Muslims in the U.S. while 
disparaging Christians and Jews at every turn has become an almost 
phenomenal trend, and l just wondered if anyone had any ideas as to why 
this is so in the US.. l could understand this if it was happening in say 
Indonesia.. or somewhere in the Middle East.. but here?

Is 
this entire country in denial? Or is it just fear of reprisals if the 
truth is actually told?
Your comments are just more evidence of 
exactly what I am talking about. There is more proof that Muslims were 
involved in the OKC bombing than there is that any Christian was involved.

Tim McVeigh, may have been 
raised by Christian parents but he never once gave any indication that 
what he did was in the name of Christianity.
/>http://intervarsity.org/ism/news/1112

As l said, you're all 
so quick to point out that a Christian did this or a Christian did that, 
but you do not wanna give credit where credit is due when it comes to 
Islam.

By the way, in case you did not know it, if it were not 
for the Crusades, you'd already all be bowing 5 times a day to the Muslim 
god allah.
Wassail - Thank you for your lone voice of reason.. l 
think the term ''dhimmi'' pretty well sums it up.l guess for some, 
submitting to the current threat of Islam is just easier to tolerate than 
maybe hearing a Christian pray. Because that is such a threat to today is 
society.
Xavs - Why do you claim that Islam is simply a religion and 
then go on to mention sharia law? Are you ignorant of the fact that sharia 
law is the judicial counterpart to our legal system? Are you also ignorant 
of the fact that by allowing Muslims to discriminate against non-Muslims 
while performing their jobs you are submitting to that very legal system 
and that there is an international drive to get the UN to enforce that 
submission?

l beg to differ with you regarding Christianity 
and Judaism not being better. The Crusades, the inquisitions were hundreds 
of years ago. The KKK was for all intents and purposes destroyed by the FBl 
and the few abortion clinic bombings do not even compare to what is 
currently being done by Muslims across the globe. But instead of the FBl 
going after the mujahideen in this country, they're inviting Muslims to 
give them ''sensitivity training'' where they're erroneously brainwashed 
into believing that ''Islam is a religion of peace''.
Crazy Cat - 
All l can say to your blah, blah, blah, is Camel Crap.
She said - 
First of all, do not ever call into question my Christianity. You are no 
one to judge my relationship with God.

Second, the fact is, 
the UK coddles Muslims more than the U.S. does. So, who cares what they do 
in the UK, it is already a hair short of being another Muslim country. 
Muslims are in fact coddled throughout this country, so stop living in 
denial.... dhimmi

disparaging Christians because of what happened during the Crusades. Two  
wrongs do not make a right. The council was correct in not erecting the  
memorial if it was going to wrongly accuse innocent people of violence.  
Perhaps a different wording could have been used, but that is up to the  
city. I really don't see where Christians & Jews have been disparaged nor  
where Muslims have been 'coddled'. Lumping entire groups of people  
together & assuming what a small percentage of the group does everyone in  
that group does is type of reasoning that allows discrimination in all its  
forms & which we, as a Secular, Free & Equal Society should stay away from  
at all costs.

Allegedly??? Here is a lovely Christian invention used in the  
Inquisitions:  
 
The Wheel:  
The nude victim, was stretched out, lying face downward on the ground or  
on the execution dock, with his or her arms & legs spread, & tied to  
stakes or iron rings. Wooden crosspieces were placed under the wrists,  
elbows, ankles, knees & hips. The inquisitor then smashed limb after limb  
& joint after joint, including the shoulders & hips, with the iron-tyred  
edge of the wheel, taking care not to bring about the death of the victim.  
There were splinters of smashed bones, blood spurted everywhere & the  
victim is entire skeleton was crushed & smashed. Thereafter the shattered  
limbs were “braided” into the spokes of the large wheel. The wheel has  
to be one of the most gruesome of all torture devices. The idea is, that  
the victims' limbs are shattered & entwined around the spokes of the  
wheel, attaching them to it.  
 
Your religion is just as bad as Islam. It took SECULAR, liberal minded  
people to drag you, kicking & screaming, into the moderate state you are  
in now.

Care to link the story? When victims have had plaques erected in the UK  
who died at the hands of the IRA no one is requesting ''Catholic  
terrorist'' be put on the plaque.  
The people who commit these acts are to blame not everyone else who  
belongs to said faith, get it?  
 
Trust me dear no one is ''coddling'' Muslims anywhere least of all the  
USA..  
Muslims are not asking for special treatment anywhere, ur bigotry is ur  
own, so own it.

I totally agree with the fact that Islam is not an Ethnic group, it is  
simply a religion.  
I wouldn't say that it ''Promotes people to form government'' any more  
then the Bible does. The thing is that Christianity is much more  
fragmented on how to interpret the Bible then Islam is on how to interpret  
the Quran/Sharia Law.  
 
All I am saying is that while Muslims have indeed done some evil things.  
However, Christianity is no better (all the Inquisitions, Crusades,  
persecution, etc.)  
It is not right to label people that do evil acts just by their belief.  
That is like if I said an American White Power group killed a bunch of  
blacks. People should stop looking at others as Americans, Blacks,  
Hispanics, Christians, Muslims, Buddhists, etc. & start looking at others  
as simply people.
