    Maybe the Guardian isn't so bad after all

    I hate the liberal leftist media as much as the next decent Christian - particularly the insidious socialist British fishwrap known as The Guardian - but this time I have to admit being only 99.9% correct. Their op-ed piece today is definitely worth a read!

    From scorning immigrants to accepting the president’s profanity, evangelicals are proving just how flexible their values can be

    Of course it's nothing I didn't know already from my favorite all-American news sources (Fox News, Breitbart, RT, Sinclair, every AM radio station) but it was refreshing to see the left are finally getting on the right side of Christian morality and appealing to us values-voters. A great business strategy which will make the owners a lot of money.
    If I have seen further, it is by standing on the heads of others.

    immigrants
    True to their heritage, and I with you hope that that is changing, they still prevaricate with obfuscational language such as the word I've highlited, above. It's not the immigrants is it. They have been welcomed into our world and taken on board our values, in many cases leaving behind social and economic basket-cases where the best one might aspire to had been life in an infected gutter with the possibility of being shot in the head to put one out of one's misery. Or worse. One might not have been shot in the head. Now and then there may have been some friction but adjustments were made, on both sides I'm willing to accept, and what a fantastic contribution the one-time new arrivals have made! A great nation emerged from acceptance of immigrants who valued the opportunity to leave basket-case behind forever. This did not only happen here but in other places too, as together we accepted and valued immigration for the skills and vibrant energy it produced.

    Mohammedanism is the problem. A single group will not leave their basket-case behind. They adhere to the values creating the very hell they're claiming to have fled when in reality they are busy weaving a new basket to entomb us all. They SAY this is what they'll do. Then they DO it. At first, organs like The Guardian point out how small a percentage these wretches comprise as a proportion of immigrants or as a proportion of the population as a whole. But do they adopt the values providing what, as they claim, is a haven they've fled to seeking peace or respite from the gutters and (in this case) having their heads chopped off? No. If they were genuine they would repudiate their vile religion, a totalitarian system leaving not a moment of breath to inspire freedom. But now we have READ their Koran and KNOW what it teaches. We know when the odious clerics are lying. And lying they must be; when they leave out half a verse which states that I am not innocent and therefore should be murdered do they think we won't go and look that verse up? It's not as though the relevant bit is on a different page! It's in the same verse. And elaborated upon in the next verse. Clerics CERTAINLY know this (it's their job after all) and we know too.

    KORAN 5..al-Ma'idah. The Food . look up .. Pickthall
    32
    We decreed for the Children of Israel that whosoever killeth a human being for other than manslaughter or corruption in the earth, it shall be as if he had killed all mankind, and whoso saveth the life of one, it shall be as if he had saved the life of all mankind. Our messengers came unto them of old with clear proofs, but afterwards lo! many of them became prodigals in the earth.
    33 The only reward of those who make war upon Allah and His messenger and strive after corruption in the land will be that they will be killed or crucified, or have their hands and feet on alternate sides cut off, or will be expelled out of the land. Such will be their degradation in the world, and in the Hereafter theirs will be an awful doom.


    I will apply this to myself. The "clear proofs" are such that would show Allah to be magnificent in sovereignty and deserving of my worship. I am NOT persuaded. Allah strikes me as a monstrous ogre insofar as I accept his existence at all, which I don't. So I am a prodigal in the earth. Not only do I reject this dogma I am actively opposed to it and hope that it will be erased from the body giving it sustenance. Islam holds that, pending the inundation of the whole world with its repugnant ideology, two houses exist. One is the House of Islam. The other is ipso facto the House of War. We can't do anything about that. Those are the only two options and I do not live in Dar al-Islam therefore I am included as one who is at war, described in verse 33. This is what should happen to me, according to the part the clerics leave out, since by their standard I am seeking corruption in the land:
    • chop off my right hand
    • and my left foot
    • degraded in unspecified ways while I bleed out
    • expelled in whatever condition I'm in after that
    • awful doom (sounds unappealing so far)
    • or just nailed up somewhere
    • then lightly killed
    • but sounds more like severe murder
    • Oh! Silly me! It's not murder because I'm an infidel!
    And that's just two verses. Not two verses no-one reads any more. At least half a verse gets quoted with monotonous regularity and the rest is enacted wherever and however they think they can get away with it. Is this some heretical interpretation I've dreamed up on opium? No. It is the LAW OF THE LAND across MAJOR ECONOMIES and GREAT SLABS OF TERRITORY wherever this garbage holds sway. When Vietnamese escaped from the tyranny of communism they did not set up communist cells and declare a murder campaign as outlined in their source material. They were well out of it and never wanted to see those sources again. They were welcomed and have made a contribution; a few teething problems were expected and were overlooked. The same applied to every other nationality so where The Guardian has "immigrants" what they should really have is "muslims" who by continuing with their religion endorse the values I have outlined here. It is what they desire for the whole world. If it were not so they would repudiate Islam just as the Vietnamese repudiate communism, just as every other immigrant repudiates basket-case, hoping to never see it again.

    Let's hope The Guardian is just having a few teething problems too.

      You, and the Guardian, have confirmed what our Godly pastors have preached here at Landover Baptists since day one: Only those who are qualified can determine morality.

      We who are True Christians™ know the Bible better than atheist liberals. We know that sin is done by sinful people. When President Trump came into our lives we knew instinctively here is one of us. He knows the boundaries of sin for righteous people.

      We who live sin free know these boundaries as well.
      Isaiah 24:1-3 Behold, the LORD maketh the earth empty (2)...as the taker of usury, so with the giver of usury to him. (3) The land shall be utterly emptied, and utterly spoiled: for the LORD hath spoken his word.
