Well do we?
Do the values of islam sync with the values The United States of America was founded on and represents?
It's a simple question really...

It should also be noted
I am neither a Christian nor a Jew
in fact I follow no organized religion whatsoever
so my question is asked from a neutral religious standpoint and is simply one based on MORAL VALUES Quoting: ^TrInItY^
Your are the minority here... You are neither Christian nor Jew, nor Muslim? You follow no organized religion? Why not just kick you out? I bet most prisoners in prison started off with no organized religion. So what makes you and your ilk better? |

Seriously, what are you advocating? That because our gov't has done less than savory things that it justifies just rolling over and taking abuse? Seriously?
Ok, let's work on one problem at a time, let's identify the people who want to retaliate against us in our borders and deport them.
Next let's get together and look at all sides of the issue to see what other courses of actions would work in a more peaceful way that is less harmful to innocent civilians. What was happening, what other courses were considered? Were they well received?
Then, let's try to get everyone just to get along and not interfere, not be greedy.
Finally, let's all wait for someone to save us from the actions of our gov't. The jist of what you are saying is "suck up the abuse within our shores, we deserve it and shouldn't fight back". |

Invaded? Wait and watch. There are already laws proposed using this whole politically correct crap... next step, sharia.
I do not, and never have, agreed with much of our leaders actions in that part of the world. We all pretty well know the 'reasons' for it, which have little to do with 'freeing' anyone. That some felt freed was just a perk.
Personally, I'm somewhat of an Isolationist... "don't start no shit and there won't be any" sort of person.
And, NO on the attacks... I don't have any good answers to offer here beyond establishing more solidly enforced immigration / naturalization policies.
Frankly, if you don't like the principles this country was founded on or actually Want to be a part of that ideology, don't come here. If you aren't satisfied with others having the freedom of their own choices and the legal protection afforded those freedoms, including your Americanized children, then leave... Simple as that.

How about this question,
Do we want White Europeans on this continent, do they agree with the principles of the native peoples of this continent. The white European (Christians). Killed WOMEN, CHILDREN, and the ELDERLY while the warriors where out hunting. They took the land forcing the natives from there homes. They forced there religion on the native people. If the natives did not accepted the christian ways of the Europeans they were killed or tortured by the god Europeans. Lets not forget that those wonderful Christians also used biological warfare, kindly giving native tribes small pox contaminated blankets. Talk about genocide those wonderful CHRISTIANS massacred hundreds of thousands in the name of Christ and AMERICA. We forced them to learn our language, adopted our religion, and culture. All at the point of a rifle and this was there f-ing land. Now if you want to make an argument that we fairly captured the land or that god gave it too us. Then well our time might be up and Islam might be the new white Europeans here to give us all a taste of our own medicine. How ironic that when the shoe is on the other foot and we are not the ones conquering, committing genocide, stealing land, and forcing god on the heathens we are the first to whine and cry like babies about how we are being oppressed and our way of life is being threatened. Grow a pair and learn to be an adult. Tit for tat, an eye for an eye it is time that the White, Christian Europeans pay the piper for all the pain and suffering we have caused for the last two thousand years.

While it's certainly possible this nation might have a Karmic debt to pay, I think you're muddying the waters by bringing up the past. What was done is in the past. It's no longer happening is it?

Do you see Christians Stoning, whipping, decapitating, and torturing those who don't believe or God forbid had the double misfortune of being gang raped, only to be "honor murdered"? Me neither...lets stick with the subject at hand and keep it in the 20th. century please...I'm sure that all nations have skeletons in their closets that they'd just as soon believe didn't exist;)

I get the question Trin, and would tend to answer like you, but on another side, there are also many muslims that we never hear of and that are respectful of others' liberty and that don't seek to impose their way of life, etc. The muslims we hear of are just always the opposite, hence our opinion that they're all like that... Hell, there's a lot of other people too that think people should think and live like they do... these pretensions really aren't just muslims'.
But anyway.... Nice thought-provoking question. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 380131
Exactly! You DON'T hear of them, because they NEVER speak up, or should I say speak OUT against the violence commited in the name of their religion.
We need to wake up to the fact that Islam is a religion that breeds stark loyalty in its followers, and because of this, Islam can NOT be trusted in a country like ours that does NOT promote intolerance and hate. Remember...Real Truth Is Self Evident;)

The question can also be asked, do we want extremism in this country? Clearly the answer is 'no,' most people do not want extremist in any form.
The difference between the US and, say Yemen, is that we live with some extremism as the price we have to pay for religious freedom and freedom of expression. Yemen on the other hand, has accepted Muslim extremism as what they want for their society. They have become like the Nazi's who collectively adopted the particular extremism of the Nazi party.
When you see hordes of Muslims demanding Sharia law in London it is no different than the Nazi's in the beer halls - extremists abound, they only capture the public's imagination and sympathy when conditions in the country are ripe for it.
Poor countries are ripe for extremism, so countries that have never adopted a western ideal of freedom of religion or expression. So what do you do about them. Normally you leave them the fuck alone to kill each other ~ sadly, the countries we are involved with have a little thing called oil and natural gas... Quoting: Anonymous Coward 814235

perhaps you should ask whether or not muslims want you in the country. after all who gets to decide? its not your country. im going to assume you are white for the sake of this arguement so perhaps the tribal natives should tell you all to fuck off too eh? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 816725
A factoid of world history: Every tribe, everywhere, in every epoch and time, steals land, resources, etc. from other tribes. It has always been that way and it is essentially no different now. We moderns just gloss it over with a veneer of "civility" - sometimes. But not really.
Regarding the U.S. continent: The modern, well-powdered and PC myth of the peaceful Native American is very romantic, yet hardly all-encompassingly accurate. There have been peaceful people and villages everywhere and everywhen. Across the world. Just as there has always been cruel violence and barbarity. Side by side. Day to day. The more you pick-and-choose which parts of history you desire to accept, the more self-deceived you are. I like romance. I love information.
As to Native Americans in the U.S., there has been a sufficiency of archeological evidence (not as suppressed as one might think, since a lot of Caucasoid skeletons still exist in the storage areas of several museums, and a few remain on display in out of the way locations) that predate the incursion of those called Native Americans.
By the by, if you are offended by the term "Indian," you might look up the names of the many "Native American" organizations. You might also look up the origin of that term.
The oldest myths of the Native Americans speak of white beings and their abodes on this continent. They speak of ancient natural events that destroyed some of those abodes. Those Native American myths also speak of wars between the two groups in which the Native Americans wiped out those white people. Eventually, the result was the extinction of the Caucasoid races here. How peaceful.
In Mexico, there are few full-blooded Native Americans in these days. The Mexican, as we tend to know of them, are a mix of native tribe and the Spanish. Further down the continent, you would probably find some Olmec or pre-Olmec genetics still extant. Recall all the statutes of the Olmec culture, and before, with both Caucasoid and Negroid features. So, actually the genetics of both could probably be found to some small degree. And the Spanish, like the Mexicans, are anthropologically considered to be Caucasoid. Oh, the word "race" is used so very loosely and does turn on political whim.
In the end, most of us are all mongrol - a mix of various races if you look back far enough. You can claim you are only one or another race - and deny the rest of your heritage. If you want. Of course, then you deny a larger richness of diversity. That is your choice.
So, what does this have to do with the Muslims in the U.S.?
If you actually study, you will find the story is basically the same, except for your purposes the tribe is a religion. It still lusts for territory, resources and control. It hungers to kill anyone who smells like the "intrinsic other." You can argue the virtue of whatever religion. Just do not mistake that you are arguing for or against anything more virtuous than a manmade power structure.
God, or however you address Deity, is still in its heavens - and not in a box circumscribed by mankind, or imprisoned within the pages of various holy books.
So, do Muslims belong in the U.S.? Really, as much as anyone else - unless they plot the destruction of this place, and its ways and people. If they value the values of this place, okay. If they want to overturn it, then that is a problem. And that is the cut.
When this place, the U.S., was settled by the Europeans, remember the Spanish came first. (Really, the Mexicans' ire should be directed at that nationality instead of the Americans. However, I realize that rationality and logic are too much to expect these days.) Being Catholic, the Spanish (and then the French) had little tolerance for other religions, other ways. Some of the later Protestant settlers actually harbored, knowingly, other settlers who were Pagans, who only wanted the same freedom of religion.
When the U.S. was formed, some of the founding fathers feared becoming the monster they had fled - intolerant religion. Did they get it perfect? Of course not. No one does. Not even you. Or me. You can argue the entrance and usage of the word "God" in national and state verbage all you want. Just remember the real goal of the founding fathers was to make a place where people had a chance to worship Deity as they chose. Freedom of Religion.
Ah, there is a key - Freedom of Religion. Do Muslims tolerate other religions? Is the Atheist, Baptist, Wiccan safe under Islam? Do you really need me to answer? At least in the U.S. all the religions have heretofore been forced to sort of deal with one other. They did not always tolerate very well; but matters were usually kept this side of total destruction. That is a real balancing act the U.S. pulled off more often than not, until now, because below all that religious and political crap was the underlayment of Constitutional Rights - which EVERYONE wanted. I am not saying it wasn't a mixed blessing and bane. It was. It was worth the effort to maintain every day. If I, as an occultist, could not live securely in your Methodist town or Jewish neighborhood, I could always move somewhere else in the country where the tolerance was more my style.
In the end, the U.S. was not so much a Christian nation as it was a deistic nation. Yet, even an atheist could make waves here and survive. I hear all the bitching now. So just stop. Overall, the U.S. tried to include everything and everyone, without ignoring serious glitches: That became both its blessing and its bane - and, ultimately, its downfall.
Fact is, you will not find a utopia on this planet. There is and will be no place where all is perfect and well. Any claimed utopian structure on Earth will be made so by exclusion - I daresay by draconian exclusion, not by inclusion.
So, I am of mixed race, a U.S. citizen. Who gets to decide? I do. If you want to displace me, to destroy me and mine, then let's get to it. If you want to coexist on an equal basis, well, that would be preferable to any sane person.
Do Muslims want me in the U.S.? Please, try to be even sillier. They have no right to kick me out of my home. I come from a varied ancestory of tribes that make stands when left with no reasonable alternative.
It's not my country? Did I not ask you to not be sillier with your questions? Now you have achieved stupidity. The U.S. is most definitely MY country. Even with what is being done to it now: It is MY country. Do refer to the verbage above if you remain unclear as to how this works.
You can froth ridiculous tripe from you mouth in ignorance. Or you can do your research. And, for the sake of argument, you may assume that I am not white. |
