Muslim Supreme Court Nominee?

Also often missing is that Islam has been in the US since its beginning. About 10% of the slave population was Muslim. In fact, one prominent slave, Omar Ibn Said, who arrived here about 1805, received a copy of the Bible in Arabic from Francis Scott Key in 1819. While it doesn't appear he converted to Christianity, he made numerous notations in his Bible, and it is now on display at the library of Davidson College in North Carolina.

There are mosques in heartland cities like Detroit, Pittsburgh, Michigan City (Indiana), Cedar Rapids (Iowa) and Ross (North Dakota) that are 100 years old.

 

There's no reason for anyone to be nominated based on religion. There's likewise no reason for anyone to be excluded based on religion. The Constitution forbids it, in fact.

Indonesia. I vacationed in the Phillippines once, does that count?

It's sadly amusing to hear you say that.

I humbly welcome that, if any exists. Sad that you refuse my prayer, though. I will pray it anyway.

Big woop. The KKK also hates Muslims. So you can decide the implication likewise.

When did you ever NOT dodge anything I said.

Yes it is, and you have hijacked it to spred your own brand of religious bigotry. You do this frequently, and it's time some of us stood up to you for it and called you out as Christians are required to do of the brethren.

That's a crock. I've called Islam as a false religion, and have likewise done so with Judaism, Buddhism, Shintoism, and Hinduism. The fact that I don't resort to bashing does not make me sympathetic. You sound very much like a 1800's southerner calling a northerner a n*gerlover.

 

"Not exactly. You've posted this fabrication before. The Barbary Pirates were from Muslim countries. That's where the guilt by association ends. You completely disregard the multitude of other pirates that were from varying part of Europe, who were just as much a threat to Atlantic sailing ships."

I have to agree with Lady Eagle here. As proof we can cite the Marine hymn. The other pirates didn't make it into the marine hymn. That should prove beyond a shadow of reasonable doubt that we have had 200 years of off and on war with Islam.

 

Seeing how our nation was formed so that we could worship Jesus Christ outside the constraints of the Anglican and Roman Orthodoxy, I would say there is no room for an avowed muslim in our court systems. War has been declared on us, by them, so until we root out the problem muslims, we should assume that none of them can be trusted.

There, I said it.

And just look at the problems Palestine is having, and Iraq also, mixing the koran with government.

 

There is an inordinate amount of paranoia in this thread. Whatever happened to the "peace of Christ."

The WTC and the Pentagon were indeed attacked by people who happen to be of the Islamic faith not by "the Muslims." This about the same as saying that ALL Christians killed the abortion Dr. in Pensacola (I believe)several years ago. The man claimed he did this because of his faith, so therefore the "Christians" are responsible.

Whatever happened to someone being innocent until proven guilty and nit being "guilty by association?"

BTW, what you are saying about Muslims is exactly what Muslims and others say about CHristians.

As the original thread, I have no problem with a Muslim serving on the Supreme Court if he or she is qualified.

This is indicative of all religious fundamentalist states.

This is group of rogue Muslims that have hi-jacked their faith.

Tim

 

Nothing has been hijacked. The faith itself when taken word for word calls for the elimination of all peoples not of the Islamic faith. The Arab League generally hates the USA although they think that we should pay their grocery bills and pay several times what their oil is worth and for that purpose they have a cartel or a false monopoly. They have been attacking us for years and years. The faith teaches that they must conquer the world and they are angry that they were pushed out of Europe. They all want Israel wiped from the face of the earth and they want democracy destroyed and Christianity obliterated. It is not coincidence that they were privately for Hitler in World War II and threatened the withholding of oil during the war if the Jews were allowed to leave Germany. Some Moslems fought for Hitler and we have documented that fact here on the Baptist Board.

 

Have you ever thought it might be economic and political rather the "religious?" Not all battles that people claim are religious in nature actually are, even though religious leaders may be leading the way.

AS to the oil, we need to find other energy sources and stop using fossil fuels.

We should have invaded Saudi Arabia and not Iraq because the majority of those involved in 9/11 were Saudi. Perhaps we should have attacked Korea rather than Japan after Pearl Harbor.

Thsi is for another post, but it "fits" here -- Why did we inter so many American Citizens who were as loyal as any others merely because of their ancestry?

Tim

 

Hijacked a faith ? A faith that, when followed, leads to eternity in hell.

How do you hijack a false religion ? Do they make it even MORE false ?

When I see "peaceful" muslims pointing out their "hijackers", then maybe I'll feel more at ease. Until then...they can pound sand.

And as far as the "peace" of Christ....

Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.

Guess who said that ?

 

That is a good question that you ask about the Japanese when only a third of them were illegal aliens and the rest were American citizens. The person to ask about that would be the liberal Democrat Franklin Delano Roosevelt. The last time anyone saw him he was with his mistress in Warm Springs, Georgia, and he said that he had a terribel headache.

But then liberal Democrats are in the habit of abusing human rights and the US Congress recently had to pay damages to the familes that the liberal Democrat of liberal Democrats put in concentration camps for no good reason.

I guess he was thinking of his mistress and not his job.

 

"This about the same as saying that ALL Christians killed the abortion Dr. in Pensacola (I believe)several years ago. The man claimed he did this because of his faith, so therefore the "Christians" are responsible"-----------------------------------------------------------------

Sure it is the same!! Why are you so blind? Have you been brainwashed by the multiculturist? I did not see any of the Christian world stand up and celebrate in mass when the abortion doctor was shot, but I did see half the musilum world go into the street and celebrate when they heard about 9/11.

 

Well at least we agree about one thing. Are you positive that no Christian stood up an cheered. I know some who did....

Also how do you know it was half the Muslim world? Please don't use specifics unless you can back it up.

BTW, yes I do believe in multiculturalism and I am not brainwashed. I'm not afraid to experience others. How many Muslims do you know?

I do agree that Islam is a false religion and without Jesus they are doomed to Hell, but should we not be praying for them and not cowering in fear from them?

I have not heard anywhere on tis board any Christian concern for the world's Muslim. I only see a distaste and distrust.

I still contend it is political and not religious.

Tim

 

Bro. Curtis,

"Love your enemies, do good to those that hurt you..."

Who said that?????

Tim

 

I have been to school with several and practiced with several. They are my friends. I'm not sure how you can miss it, but these professionals talked about how glad they would be to sacrifice their children to distroy Isreal, or I should say, the Zionest entity. They also wanted homosexuals to be stoned todeath and would not be involved with the treatment of AID's patients.

I don't know if some Christian somewhere in the world stood up and cheered, I just know they are rare, but the sights and sounds of the musilums cheering was common after 9/11.


"I have not heard anywhere on tis board any Christian concern for the world's Muslim. I only see a distaste and distrust.""--------------------------------------------------------------------


You are assuming. Just because our world view does not match you multicultural world view. You are so brainwashed in your multiculturist thinking that you are trained to think that if Christians see an accurate and truthful view of the Musilem would, they must be unconcerned. Because of all the cultures, American is the worst. That is very judgmental. As a good multiculturist you will not Judge any culture accept American Christian culture, and you will not hesitate with that.

 

Wow, Tim, have you heard of Americans United for Separation of Church and State by any chance? http://www.au.org/site/PageServer

You are new on this board so you will find concern for lost souls if you dig through past issues. Afterall we are Evangelical.

But since you doubt what Islam teaches, let us give you some links:

I myself don't like the way Islamic religious doctrine leads automatically to human rights abuse. I just wouldn't want to live in an Islamic country, would you?

Ecclesiastes 3:8 (KJV) A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.

Who said that? Jesus.

 

I agree. Read the Koran/Quran for yourself.

Wasn't that king Solomon?

I don't claim that one should want a Moslim supreme court judge, but I will claim that if one wants to find one, than acceptable candidates can be found.
And by the way, your ancestors only lived on your current continent for 2 centuries?
That's nothing, I've got a straight line of ancestors who were around in the same city I live in for over 5 centuries straight and most likely much longer.
