ORIGINAL: Mercnbeth quote:
Except for the 7 virgins for everybody and I dont see much difference between their goals and those of Islamic fundamentalists. Sinergy, That's because you view the situation with very jaded eyes. Who, as a representative or leader of any group or political party has made a similar comment regarding their religion? This is a direct quote from Omar Ahmad Co-founder and former National Chairman of CAIR. quote:
Those who stay in America should be 'open to society without melting (into it),' keeping mosques open so anyone can come and learn about Islam, he said. 'If you choose to live here (in America)... you have a responsibility to deliver the message of Islam,' he said. Islam isn't in America to be equal to any other faith but to become dominant, he said. The Koran, the Muslim book of scripture, should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on Earth, he said." (Lisa Gardiner, San Ramon Valley Herald, 'American Muslim leader urges faithful to spread Islam's message,' July 4, 1998) Seriously do not think there is any difference between this view and Pat Robertson to be honest with you. He did run for the presidency, and he more or less spreads the word to Christian evangelicals of who to vote for in the form of Christian voting guides that the Christian Coalition prints up. quote:
If Christian people work together, they can succeed during this decade in winning back control of the institutions that have been taken from them over the past 70 years. Expect confrontations that will be not only unpleasant but at times physically bloody.... This decade will not be for the faint of heart, but the resolute. Institutions will be plunged into wrenching change. We will be living through one of the most tumultuous periods of human history. When it is over, I am convinced God's people will emerge victorious. -- Pat Robertson, Pat Robertson's Perspective Oct-Nov 1992 quote:
We at the Christian Coalition are raising an army who cares. We are training people to be effective -- to be elected to school boards, to city councils, to state legislatures, and to key positions in political parties.... By the end of this decade, if we work and give and organize and train, THE CHRISTIAN COALITION WILL BE THE MOST POWERFUL POLITICAL ORGANIZATION IN AMERICA -- Pat Robertson, in a fundraising letter, July 4, 1991 quote:
We have a court that has essentially stuck its finger in God's eye. We have insulted God at the highest levels of our government. Then, we say, "Why does this happen?" It is happening because God Almighty is lifting His protection from us. -- Pat Robertson, blaming American lifestyles for bringing God's judgement upon us in the form of the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, in a three-page statement released Thursday, September 13, 2001, quoted from AANEWS #958 by American Atheists (September 14, 2001), and from Dick Meyer, "Holy Smoke," CBS News (September 15, 2001) quote:
Good or Bad, God Picks Bush Because He's Christian I think George Bush is going to win in a walk. I really believe that I'm hearing from the Lord it's going to be like a blowout election of 2004. It's shaping up that way. The Lord has just blessed him.... I mean, he could make terrible mistakes and comes out of it. It doesn't make any difference what he does, good or bad. God picks him up because he's a man of prayer and God's blessing him. -- Pat Robertson, The 700 Club television program, , January 2, 2004 †† [quote] US Constitution: For Christians Only The Constitution of the United States, for instance, is a marvelous document for self-government by the Christian people. But the minute you turn the document into the hands of non-Christian people and atheistic people they can use it to destroy the very foundation of our society. And that's what's been happening. -- Pat Robertson, The 700 Club television program, December 30, 1981 Link to this site of quotes http://www.positiveatheism.org/hist/quotes/revpat.htm
