Ban Beck From Ground Zero! And, Is Obama a Muslim?

So you would ban a fellow American Citizen from visiting Ground Zero because he has different political (or religious, my ed) views than yourself? Gee how Socialist/Progressive of you.

Are you talking about Muslim Americans?

I suggest you fucking IDIOTS go read about the Historical Battle for Cordoba Spain. The Muslim Victory there, and what it means to them. Then ask yourself why the fuck if they are trying to reach out to us, are they calling their group the Cordoba Initiative.

Blind support for something in the Name of Political Correctness can be just as fucking ignorant as being a bigot against something for no good reason.

Some things should be opposed. Really people Google Cordoba and read about the History and then look at this Mosque and the Group behind it in that light for a min.

Then the "Reconquista" came along and then they were sacked..

Proud moment in my countries history.

Replacing this:
The era of Muslim rule in Spain (8th-11th century) was considered the "Golden Age" for Spanish Jewry. Jewish intellectual and spiritual life flourished and many Jews served in Spanish courts. Jewish economic expansion was unparalleled. In Toledo, Jews were involved in translating Arabic texts to the romance languages, as well as translating Greek and Hebrew texts into Arabic. Jews also contributed to botany, geography, medicine, mathematics, poetry and philosophy.​

with this:
Anti-Jewish riots broke out in 1391 in several Spanish cities and the situation worsened for the Jewish community. New Christians were tortured or killed in the Spanish Inquisition during the 15th century. Father Tomas de Torquemada felt that if the Jews remained in Spain, then they would influence the new converts to Christianity. After the capture of Granada from Muslim forces, Father Torquemada convinced King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella that the Jewish community was expendable. In 1492, Isabella and Ferdinand commanded that all Jews who refused to convert to Christianity be expelled from Spain. The Jews were given four months to leave Spain and were forced to sell their houses and businesses at low prices. It is estimated that 100,000 Jews left Spain at this time. The expulsion from Spain is commemorated every year by all Jews on the holiday of Tisha B’Av.

...is nothing to be proud of.

Want to guess where most of those Jews ended up going?
 
Kalam, that is one thing I'm ashamed of the Spanish Monarchs after the Spanish Victory over the moors..

The only thing that could justify that in a way was due to the fact the Spanish Monarchs needed to unite the Country and apparently get rid of Non-Catholics. I wouldn't have done that, I'd let Jews live in Spain if they wanted..

But then again Kalam, It was the middle ages, everybody did this.. nobody is safe.

'em I right?

EDIT: One thing I found a couple months ago was that one of my ancestors was one of the Jews who were sacked from Spain for not being Catholic. I'm not sure if he converted or not. But there's a memorial in Spain about those Jews. And Mothers last name was in the front of a book found back then.

I'm not 100% sure, but part of my last name is Jewish in Spain.

So he's a muslim that doesn't follow at least 3 of the main pillars of Islam? That makes perfect sense.

I know of people who call themselves Muslims that do not pray 5 times a day, fast during Ramadan, never contribute to charity, and have no plans to have a pilgrimage. Are you trying to claim that they are all lying?

Well, they obviously don't meet the standards set by the Koran.. So yeah, I would say they are lying.

I am certainly glad you are not actually qualified to call anyone on their religion. Just an fyi, the Quran says everyone is a Muslim. But keep going around you think you know what it says.

How do you feel about Sharia Law in the USA? Imam Rauf is a proponent of Sharia Law.

You know that book better than I do, you look it up. If you are attempting to deny that I am correct though, why is anyone who turns to Islam called a revert?
