    I love Muslims. I don't have to love their religion, or the teachings of their Prophet.

    If they're not bound to the Old Testament, then why do they keep trying to push Creationism (or "Intelligent Design" if you will)? And why do they keep citing Sodom and Gomorrah as reasons why they shouldn't acccept gays?

    Here are a few things from the Chicago area Mosques website, that I've said, but it's better to hear it from them:

    Muslims (the followers of Islam) view their religion as comprehensive, often called “a way of life,” for in the Islamic paradigm, nothing falls outside the influence of religion--not personal spirituality, marriage, business transactions, education, profession, family matters, our relationship with nature, discovery, art, recreation, or neighborly relations.

    Islam 101

    Muslims believe in Muhammad as a man, Prophet, and Messenger--not as God, an angel, or the son of God. He is considered an excellent example of human behavior and noble conduct, fully human, someone whose teachings Muslims turn to and try to emulate.

    Muhammed

    The Quran is unique in that ever since it was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad 14 centuries ago, not a single letter of it has been changed. It remains precisely as it was revealed and as it was committed to memorization and to writing in the time of the Prophet and shortly thereafter dispersed throughout the lands. Muslim families today have bound copies of the book in their homes, but several million Muslims around the world also have memorized the book’s entirety.

    About The Quran

    It is true that Islam is a misunderstood religion, but not because it is difficult to understand or is shrouded in mystery. On the contrary, the hallmark of this faith is, in fact, clarity.

    How about the Kurds? Even as far as to possibly include the PKK?

    Whether you agree with Graham or not, that was some live theatre.

    A triumph for conservative mainstream media.

    When it flips in 15/20 years - and it will, hard - oh, man. Will all the trolling so not have been worth it for the gun lobby.

    She lied. 54 is closer to 50 not 60!

    NEARLY!

    Ah crap. It was 58%.

    54 was the percentage of Republicans who support a temporary ban.

    Then she rounded up properly. Gold star.
