The Difference Between Christianity And Islam

You do not know or believe the Word of God the...
That is your perogative.

Oh I understand Jim, and I am not trying to be arguementative, just to bring light to hypocricy, and shed some real truth to those who like to point fingers, yet fail to see their own shortcomings.

But I disagree about the "slave pens" being a thing of the past, and "American slaves" that are hidden in third world countries all over the world, are still working to the bone and living in squalor at the site of the factories that produce trinkets for the fancy of the American public.

This would never happen in Islam, as there are very strict standards that must be kept up for those under your care, and children slaves cannot be made to work like men.

But American's like those "low, low, prices", so they hear about child labour, and people in sweatshops, but they ignore it like the good consumers that they are.

Would it be better if those people didn't have jobs?

Are any of them working there (wherever) against their will and by force?
If so, do you blame those who compel them?

Or does that not serve your purposes...

There are places such as old run-down
motels throughout my state and neighboring
North Carolina that are packed with
low-paid Central American migrant
workers,many making less than half
of the wages of their working American
counterparts in other states which have
little to no influx of hispanic laborers.

As you know the American South has a
long history of reaping the benefits
of Slave Labor in one form or another.

No,
it would be better if they made better
wages and benefits along with a share
of the profits.

It would be better if I made more money and shared in the profits too.
But I don't. So what then?
Who should I blame now?

Excactly.

It would be better even still if the consumer demanded it, by not buying from those who do these practices.

It is desperation, not the gun, that bring these people to sell themselves out like this.

If the American consumer simply didn't buy the products then they would pay the people more, rather than go out of business, and if they did, then good riddance!

Someone else will make bobbles, for less money, and treat their workers like humans.

And this is also at the heart of the illegal immigration thing. That is all corperate.

When Bush says "jobs that Americans won't do", he is really saying "Jobs that American won't do for 50 cents an hour."

The long term plan here is to have us ALL as slaves to the corperate machine, with a few living in absolute wealth, while others feed that wealth with squalor.

Believe it.

The "christ consciousness" is an inner experience. You WILL know it when it happens. It's not outside of you. It's a love that is all consuming right down to the smallest creature and everything else that lives including yourself. YOU become this consciousness. YOU become the "Christ". It's the flame that burns within, the light that will light your way.

I've never seen a picture of Jesus in a church in my life, except maybe in a little kid's Sunday School classroom. But you have gone to many, Islamic Guy? Sorry, I have a hard time believing that you've been in even one church!

And you have it wrong about what Jesus said, 'I have not come to change the law...' He didn't say that. You are misquoting him.

And if you are wrong about that... don't you wonder what else you are wrong about? Maybe alot?

Really Kay?

So there is no giant crucifix in your church?

And yes I have been in two churches, where I was attending lectures, and 2 where Christian friends were getting married.

And I have yet to see even one church in a photo that doesn't have a giant crucifix directly behind the podium where the priest...(always higher than the congregation, I have noticed too)...is giving his mass.

You may not have a picture but you have an Idol or graven image I am sure.

Show me a picture of the lecturn of a church without the crucifix idol behind it, seriously...

Why do you say all this?

You are not in Iraq.

You are in Canada, aren't you?

Why do you sound like you are doing all this? You are not. You are tucked safe and warm in the West that you so castigate. Sheesh. You should be thanking your new home, not being hateful this way. Maybe you should go back to the Middle East. Maybe you will be happier there. You seem so angry that the West can give you a comfortable, preferable home than where you came from. Deal with it.

Actually I am currently saving the money to do just that.

I have sold my house in Dearborn, and I am waiting for it to finalize, and when it does I am going to get on a plane, if I can, and go back.

I do have an obligation to fight, and I will.

Inshalla.

I do not doubt you're feeling something,

but now I have a question -

Do you think that humankind dwelt
in a dark souless evil void before
the concept of 'One God' and it's
offshoot Christianity spread out from
it's core area?

If you're one of those who believe the
world is only 6000 years old,

you don't have to answer.

Christ in animals?

Over animals maybe,and in a bad way,
like the guy who swerves his car enough
to run over a harmless Kingsnake on the
way to Church because he thinks this
creature is akin to satan.

I got Grey Squirrels in my yard
whose kind have been frolicking
in the tall Pines for millions
of years.

The only devine forces they know is
my wife who feeds them,

and the Redtail Hawks.

Well, first of all, you don't understand Chrisitanity at all.

We are not under a rule-based system that says 'don't do this, don't do that.' We are under a forgiveness based system. We forgive and forget.

A crucifix on a steeple simply denotes that a place is a church. It is not a symbol of worship. The point is - intent. What is the intent of the person. Are they depending upon this object to 'save' them? Is someone depending upon Mary to save them? Then that is idolatry. Where is that person's heart. Jesus said, 'where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.' These days, we have much more to be concerned about than a dumb piece of wood. We have poverty, we have materialism, we have war, we have worry (lack of faith) we have distractions. These are the things we can accidently worship. Money is the root of all kinds of evil. That is the temptation, not a piece of wood. Jesus doesn't care about wood! He cares about FAITH.

You have the concepts of what pleases God completely upside down.

"The fruit of the spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, goodness, kindness, faithfulness, meekness and self control...."

(Those are the things God want to develop in our lives)

The Bible says..."against which things were is no law." No rule can measure this fruit. Only God can know the heart.

You want to find a rule and say, "Look! Christians are breaking it!" When there are no rules! There is only sanctification... becoming more like Jesus, being a servant like He was.

And are you going to take electric machine screw drivers to Shiites? That is what the Sunnis did this week in Iraq. They tortured them with electric screw drivers, they poked out their eyes, chopped off their heads.

It's almost impossible to get to the Americans, the only people you can fight against there is Iraqi Shiites.

Are you going to join this bloodthirsty group?

I'll pray for you.

May God have mercy on your soul.

Well, I want you to remember this.

I, too, have felt a renewed desire to show commitment to God.

You, are going to kill people.

I am going to Nursing School. I am going to leave my career as a real estate broker to learn how to heal people. I've always hated it.

Why am I doing this? Because I have been wooed by Jesus, loved by Him and called to show my gratitude for what He has done for me. Many little miracles have happened that show me this is His will for me. I'll probably end up with children because they are very drawn to me.

And THIS, my friends this difference in calling is the difference between Christianity and Islam.

One is called to kill and one to heal.

Almost immposible to get to the Americans!?

Are you kidding me?

I am not some uninformed idiot American Kay, I have family there and when the damn phones still work, we talk.

You are going to be shocked as hell when you find out the truth of what is going on there, and the extreme losses you are talking.

Seriously.

You are being lied to.

You think that the "boys" are okay?

My cousin told me just last week that the American losses are closer to 25 to 30 thousand right now, and Americans are falling dead to snipers and now rockets, on a daily basis.

He has no reason to lie as he is far from any pockets of resistance, or fighting, and is pretty much just living normally.

But word comes that Americans are trying like hell to fall back to the "green zone", that is under constant shelling, and now small missile fire.

Trust me, and remember, when the truth comes out you heard it here first.

No...One is to defend, while the other is to live in absolute decadance while it's countrymen rob and pillage others.

If you feel so strongly Kay, why don't you send your husband, or your son's to die in Iraq?

Please.

You go ahead and enjoy the spoils of THIS life Kay.

I am going to do God's work, and help set this thing right.

Middle Eastern monotheism puts man
over the Natural World over all other
living things"The good Stewards" so
to speak, or as I put it'The One Great
Sky God and his slave-woman the Earth Mother'only to let 'His kids' fuck
our Green and Blue living planet.

Other cultures here have bought in or
have been forced to accept 'their' greed.


They will create their final days,

With dying breath comes your moment
of truth.

you are not exempt

Look, my niece works at a hospital in Germany at the American military base there. Landstuhl, I think it is. I talk to her frequently. She would know if there were massive casualties there. Behind that 'green zone' is pretty safe. If this was going on, they would level it like they did Fallujah. Don't listen to a Bagdad Bob who is going to tell bogus stories!

---------

Listen, I apologize for what I said. You shouldn't go there. It is too dangerous. Think of your family, man! Your first obligation is to them! Don't go. I will stop posting articles if it makes you feel better. Just don't do it. You don't belong there. You are a gentle person, angry right now, but we all are. You have to not be impulsive. The only thing that needs to happen in Iraq is that people need to calm down so that the Americans can leave. That is all they want to do - get the hell out! This whole thing is crazy. Don't go crazy yourself.

Which is?

You're correct in ways you don't know
and cannot understand,

but yes I for one am not exempt.

an arrogant and condescending presumption

======================

I don't live in decadence. To do so, I would have to work a lot harder at my job than I do. I could. I have before. I stopped doing it because it wasn't worth it.

I don't drink, don't smoke, don't take drugs, don't watch TV, never have. I don't even eat much. I spend alot of time with my granddaughter, I taught her how to read. We go swimming in the pool - I just babysat my baby niece for a week for my sister. I write letters to Senators about abortion, about illegal immigration.

I live a quiet life. My excitement is when I see my daughter sing or dance ballet on stage.

My grandparents worked hard and didn't succumb to decadence either. They were farmers in Montana.

I don't think there is anything to rob and pillage in Iraq. Is there? And if there is a draft, my kids might very well have to fight a war. If this stupid thing doesn't settle down. And it won't settle down when people go around with these crazy stories.

They ARE crazy. There are no 25,000 dead marines. That would be impossible to keep hidden. IT IS A BAGHDAD BOB STORY! Don't believe it.

and you make many great and worthwhile contributions here as well.

Maybe,



for you but not for me,yet if you do know
and can understand please share with those
who don't.

Kay, I'm so sorry but it IS true, and it is no "story", Iraq is a veitnem like fight right now, and the losses are heavy on both sides.

I have no way to prove this to you, nor do I care too, but you WILL see when the dust settles and you leave.

Iraq is a country that the Americans will never have. Every day that passes is another twenty busloads of fighters from all over the world streaming in, and one day I hope to be one of them.

It is my duty.

YOU attacked US, remember?

I already personally know twenty or thirty men who have left their families in America and gone to fight. They were like brothers to me, and I cannot bear to stay behind.

You cannot understand, and I get that, but someday, if we do not succeed, then it will be YOU that these animals come after.

Mark my words.

You are ruled by demons Kay.

It's time to accept that, and put away your mascara and your masqurade and pick up the rifle and the sword.

I'll accept your apology years from now about the American dead BTW...

When the real truth does come to light.
