Christian fundies again stab their anti-gay Muslim allies in the back
Note: I post this not to be anti-Muslim, but to illustrate how the same people can sit down at the table together to attack gays turn around an attack one another the next minute. And they still will have no problem working together again.

Mohammed: The Ugly Truth About the Founder of the World's Most Violent Religion

Written by a priest who lived and ministered among Muslims

NOT STOCKED IN MOST BOOKSTORES!
This hard-to-find book is now available in limited supply from the Townhall.com Book Service

Father J.L. Menezes knew Islam up close: as a missionary in India, he devoted his priestly life to introducing that nation's tens of millions of Muslims to Christianity. In The Life and Religion of Mohammed, he left us the record of his appeals: a frank, honest, and exhaustively researched exploration of the life of the "prophet" of Islam, the development and contents of the Koran, and an introduction to various Muslim sects.

Working from the earliest Islamic sources, Fr. Menezes provides a complete account of Mohammed's life, from his days as a simple merchant to his triumphs as a leader of armies and revered prophet. Menezes delved so deeply into his subject that he was even able to describe Mohammed's physical appearance. He explains why Mohammed couldn't possibly be a true prophet, and reveals the true sources of his "revelations."

Fr. Menezes could be writing about today's Muslim terrorists when he explains that "Mohammed posed as the apostle of God, the seal of the prophets; as the destroyer of idolatry; as preacher of one true God, and the reformer of morals: while his life is marked by innumerable marriages; and great licentiousness, deeds of rapine, warfare, conquests, unmerciful butcheries, all the time invoking God's holy name to sanction his evil deeds, ordering prayers and alms deeds and at the same time propagating Islam everywhere by fire and sword."

Turning to the Koran, Fr. Menezes delineates the distinctive teachings of Islam, explaining the elements of the Muslim holy book that make it so difficult for Muslims to convert to Christianity -- and showing how the Koran, when read honestly and without Islamic preconceptions, nonetheless depends upon and leads to Christianity.

1. Muslims in USA ...
voted for Bush in 2000, but for Kerry in 2004.

They have realized the futility of aligning with the Repukes.

3. WTF?!
Fr. Menezes could be writing about today's Muslim terrorists when he explains that "Mohammed posed as the apostle of God, the seal of the prophets; as the destroyer of idolatry; as preacher of one true God, and the reformer of morals: while his life is marked by innumerable marriages; and great licentiousness, deeds of rapine, warfare, conquests, unmerciful butcheries, all the time invoking God's holy name to sanction his evil deeds, ordering prayers and alms deeds and at the same time propagating Islam everywhere by fire and sword."

Was he writing about Mohammed or Bush?

4. Bush & Christians Deny Allah
Edited on Mon Apr-25-05 08:20 PM by NickofTime
They are enemies of Allah, and will be punished! They distort the words of http://www.islam.tc/prophecies/jesus.html">Jesus!

We will fight with you against Bush and his Christians as the Koran commands: Muslims should fight the People of the Book until they willingly pay a special tax or tribute (jizyah).
