By Mal Fletcher, published 23/3/2016Today's events in Brussels also remind us of the failure of political correctness as either a way of thinking or a government policy.

personally I think Trump would be aweful unless you of course compare him with Hilary. Then he looks much better.

" If what you are saying about traditional Islam is true, then all other religions--- people and their places of worship --- would have disappeared long ago."
Yes, let's not forget one's options, convert to Islam, be taxed and give up your sons for indoctrination into Islam, or die. Posted by Luciferase, Thursday, 24 March 2016 1:19:08 PM

I just posted this below a few minutes ago, on the Muslimah Next Door Blog at the patheos.com site. It is a comment about the post Where we mourn in which she declares that terrorists such as in Brussels are not really Muslims...
Here goes.... Actually they, the terrorists, swear allegiance to the precepts of the Quran and cite the example of their prophet -- a man who, they say, "never stopped attacking his enemies". After all, they are just doing what Allah orders: Quran 9:111. Muslimah, you can write deep-in-denial "this is not my islam" stories until the cows come home, and it will change nothing. Some Muslims will continue to kill, based upon clear dogma in both Quran and hadith, and others will pretend it has nothing to do with Islam. And we all sink deeper into a hell of hate and violence.

Grateful, Asking to commit is not committing.
The fact is that Islam is poorly suited for coexistence with non-Muslims. You talk about values, but exactly how many of the values listed conform to Islamic doctrine and practice? • respect for the freedom and dignity of the individual (No, the slander against non-Muslims seeps from the pages of the Quran) • freedom of religion (Blasphemy and apostasy laws) • commitment to the rule of law (Which is better -- Sharia, Allah's perfect law, or those of fallible humans?) • Parliamentary democracy (Not exactly an islamic tradition) • equality of men and women (Any questions, here?) • a spirit of egalitarianism that embraces mutual respect, tolerance, fair play and compassion for those in need and pursuit of the public good (the treatment of religious and ethnic minorities in Islamic societies is well-known); • equality of opportunity for individuals, regardless of their race, religion or ethnic background (Actually, Muslims, are according to the Quran, the best of peoples, and we, poor infidels, are lower than animals. Non-Muslims are, by law, second class citizens, just below Muslim women.) As I have been saying here at OLO for 10 years, Muslims cannot live in peace, in numbers, as equals, with nonMuslims. Their values are those of Allah (I will cast terror) and MOhammad (I am made victorious with terror). Posted by kactuz, Thursday, 24 March 2016 3:38:32 PM

"Yes, let's not forget one's options, convert to Islam, be taxed and give up your sons for indoctrination into Islam, or die."
Luciferase, this is not part of the teachings of Islam. If you disagree, then share your source and we'll see if it bears up to serious scrutiny. Posted by grateful, Thursday, 24 March 2016 9:10:20 PM
