  1. quote These post cause my heart to palpitate. It saddens me so much to hear so many references to to words like "evil" "enemy" and the most discusting of all "felicitous disaster." Ayn Rand put it that nothing was more important to an individual than their own life and that should be understood. It implys that if you respect the need for you to watch out for yourself alone you would likewise understand that everybody elses life is as important to them as yours is to you. That then should translate into a great appreciation for life...everyones. quote] May I remind you that the United States and her allies are at war. This war was started by a cabal of greasy hoodlums who insist al Quar'an is the word of god. Al Qur'an is said, with cogent documentation, to have been inspired if not authored by Mohammed. He, as I stated in another post, was a mass-murderer and child molesting serial rapist. Pray consider this: The 100, 000 Islamic Indonesian tsunami dead are that many fewer of those eager to perpetrate enormities resembling the butchery of the unarmed Jersey Copts. Moreover, that means when the time comes -and I think it inevitable-the Coalition will require a fewer nuclear devices. If that doesn't work for you: As a charter member of the 'ignorant oafs' I think it accurate to say that our compassion for the tsunami victims is coterminous with that of John Galt and Ellis Wyatt for those mind-haters who perished in the Taggart tunnel catastrophe. Have a nice war.
  2. [quote Indonesia is not a dire and threatening enemy - anti-americanism is one thing but thats quite another. I should be interested to hear what the aforementioned and others think of the massive corporate response to the Tsunami disasters. [ Indonesia is most certainly a 'dire' threat to America just as any other malodourous Moslem vipers' nest. If any misguided corporation undertakes to heal the enemy's wounds instead of exploiting them-that's their funeral. You, like these charitable-no, suicidal-businessmen seem to be unaware that altruism is the root of all civilisational evil.
  3. Religion as a way of life, as history has demonstrated, is universally pathetic. If not for rational Greek thought conquering 'religion' you wouldn't have a computer let alone the opinions to type into that computer. There may be an excuse for religion but never a reason.
  4. There's something wrong with your conclusions. First, the notion that 'utter destruction' of a social system devised by a mystically inclined mass-murderer and serial rapist child molestor [i.e. Mohammed d. c.e. 632] isn't moral is untenable. Second, any homey, schmo, paisan, greeek, or fellah can write a book; any 'advances'-e.g.: plane trigonometry imputed to Islamic 'society' are not attributable to 'Islamic' anything; these apocryphally documented achievements belong to the foreign hellenistic civilisation that enriched smarter than average Caliphs. Their legacy was incinerated by al-Ghazali (Acqinas's moslem antipode) c. 1095. Averring that a kindlier, gentler interpretation of al-Qur'an would be a salutary adjunct to Western Civilisation is more dangerously silly than hallucinating Mein Kampf is logical.
  5. I've long advocated the exact tactic. For instance. the United States' should consider the feasibility of targeting Damascus with a-say-nuclear device a quarter strength of the Nagasaki weapon? Consider the Mercedes driving Bathist elite barbequed. Remember, however: Israel, American military and Arab non-moslems are nearby. This isn't as easily discussed as seems. To prepare my argument-the salvation of Coalition forces victory and well-being-I search engined numerous websites looking for nuclear weapon theory. So far, all I'm able to unearth are the same ol' Cold War eschatology. What's needed are uncannily precise low contamination nuclear ordnance. Are such possible? Are there any sources out there honestly reviewing this option?
  6. Christianity needn't die; Capitalism owns it. Capitalism encourages choices for all non-coercive entities.
  7. The death of Islam would be a healthy thing for everybody just as was the denazification of Germany.
  8. If Christians choose to remain faithful to their own rules that means they have an obligation to provide education and health care to everyone unable to pay for these services. Hypocrisy is the handmaiden of altruism.
  9. [First posted somewhere else September, 2004] NEWS ITEM: ISLAM AND ALL RELIGIONS FORBID VIOLENCE. This unfortunate article was penned by Shirin Ebadi, Iran's Nobel (REDFLAG) Peace Laureate. This dried up piece of third world baggage has the temerity to state, '...all religions forbid terrorism and violence...' Ask Mohammed (who, we are told, is still living in paradise) what he'd think of the foregoing and one wouldn't possess a head for long. Just to be balanced one can be certain that the Borgia Popes, Henry VIII, or Joshua would have reacted similarly. The gallant lady goes on to lament '...that certain Islamic governments are not prepared to accept an interpretation of Islam (based on the dreaded al Qur'an and Hadith)-parenthesis ours- that is compatible with democracy and human rights.' If Islam sanctioned democracy and individual rights there would be no more Islamic 'faith'. Mullas, imams, and ayotolahs aren't so blind that they can't see the infrared search lights illuminating their salubrious demise. Ebadi marches on to insist that, '...no country needs the atomic bomb...' What she means is that America should not maintain nuclear weapons while Iran needs one to obliterate Tel Aviv. She also blathers that the '...atrocities committed in Bosnia and Israel cannot be attributed to the Christian or Jewish faiths...' Ebadi is correct on her last point; members of the Jewish faith do not bomb pizzerias, discos, and and commuter busses. One would do well to consult al-Qur'an. Sura 47, verse 36, wherein allah ranks the merits of human life and achievement that eschew mystic brutality, 'Verily the life of this world is no more than sport and frivolity. If you believe in Allah,...' 911 was a poignant display of Moslem sport and frivolity. This is an archetypal page from the Moslem playbook. If one is just, according to Islam, the mass murder of non-combatants is not a bad thing. When one deals with Islam he's playing with a malignant, criminal, pathology that trivialises human life.
  10. The Christian Churches of America would do well to follow Jesus Christ and assume the financial burden of 'universal' health care. How often is one treated at a hospital displaying a religious moniker? Since Christians understandably complain about declining educational and therefore moral standards, they should insist that their leadership pay (that's right,cash) for K through college graduation. Consider the establishment institutes for higher education founded by Christian groups. These corporations cultivate immense incomes. Why can't they distribute such fish dinners to distressed pupils vegetating in the fifth form? Simple. The federal government nurtures this time bomb. And when it detonates the church will be damned before it stops its luxury automobile to assist the indigent 'faithful'.
