Your take on the King hearings...

As far as the percentages go, I believe they're underestimated. And the only reason we aren't manning the shore batteries is because they don't have the means to confront us directly................yet.

I already responded to the why of the hearings. There are Muslims out there that are secular. They need a voice and support and this is one way of giving them voice. From that voice perhaps support will follow.

What we've learned are that there are secular groups out there. That they are raising a red flag too, and that they want to fight this plague back just as much as we do. And we've heard a lot of bullshit from those that have their head in the sand. They served their purpose as well. Sure as hell brought attention to the hearings.

Is the word you're looknig for really "secular"? Islam is after all a reigion. What we're looking for is non violent, non extremist Muslims that adhere to the secular law of the land and separation of chuch and state (which by the way is more than can be said about lots of Christian groups, but that's another discussion. ;) ).

But anyway... So you say these hearings are all about giving voice and support to the good Muslim communities out there? (be they secular or not, but you know what I mean) The main critisism seems to be that instead of doing that, the gist and rhetoric of what is going down is about chastising and casting undue suspícion on them for not being actively anti exstremist enough.

So my question from a few posts up is still relevant:

Does the American citizen Abdullah Mohammed have any greater responsibility to denounce, root out and defeat Islamic Extremism than the American citizen Bob Smith?

And if so: Why?
 
I'm teasing with my line tipped with vibrant allure...





If that fails to work, I have my trusty red-wiggler ready for the hook. :heart:
 
I think that's illegal in all but ArKansas, but we can run a trot line...





I have a hung gar for a catfish breakfast.

I see you couldn't resist taking a shot at Christians.

No, that is what the media and the naysayers are telling everyone that's what the hearings are about.

Yep. Because the hub of this activity is the Mosque and Bob Smith doesn't go to, or could get in, the Mosque.

And I suggest you do some reading concerning Islam. It is unique among the great religions in that it DOES NOT recognize secular law.

OK, I get the parody thread, but surely the title should be "your take on the King's Speech"?
 
nice save! i'm sure you narrowly escape many nights on the sofa.

It was this big before it got away!

Now, don't laugh at the size of the one in my creel, it's very tender, even juicy, eating at that size...
