Thanks for your support George.

Although I would point out that there is a huge difference between violence being "in" the Bible and violence being taught as a way of life.

Caroline,

This discussion is specifically about Rick Perry's supposedly threatening "friendship" with muslims that he needs to "explain" according to the article.

I don't believe that the author or anyone else in this thread has proven that he has any dangerous friendship with muslims. The argument seems to be "any friendship with a muslim means you are compromised." I reject that notion.

Well. I certainly haven't been naive or stupid. I don't really believe you are reading and thinking through my comments at all.

What do you mean by "Perry has done more than work with them?"

Please explain.

Hello Frank,

What have I said that is Naive? I have not denied that some Muslims have killed Christians (and non-Christians, including other Muslims, as well.)

And what do the Germans in the 1930s and what they thought have to do with anything?

I can only assume when you refer to "a wolf in sheep's skin" you are suggesting that a radical Muslim could masquerade as a moderate Muslim. Of course they could. What does that have to do with anything that I have said? A crazy violent person could masquerade as a Christian as well.

I don't see any valid point to your comment at all.

@ Dorothy Heath

All of them Dorothy? All Muslims want to conquer the World and be the supreme power? Have you interviewed each one?

I am having trouble taking your comment seriously because of the "better off if there weren't so many muslims and Mexicans" bit. What's wrong with Mexicans? Why do Mexicans make us worse off?
My recent post Islamic Law or American Law?

David Reaboi of the Center for Security Policy* has written a good article about why there is no need to be concerned about Perry's "friendship" with various Muslims.

He basically asserts that this is a manufactured controversy.

I would encourage the author of this article (by the way, who is the author of this article?) and all of those who have commented to read it.

Here is the article: http://pajamasmedia.com/blog/rick-perry-is-not-th...

* The Center for Security Policy (http://www.centerforsecuritypolicy.org/) is an organization that promotes "peace through strength" and - among other things - is a watchdog against Sharia Influence in the United States.

Bonnie, has Rick Perry been teaching that? I would direct you to my previous comment here: http://godfatherpolitics.com/519/rick-perry-has-s...

I haven't seen any proof that Rick Perry has been teaching that "Islam is a Peaceful Religion." If he has, he is misguided and wrong. Although it may be true to say that some people who call themselves Muslims might be peaceful people.
My recent post Another View on the Abbottabad Raid

This is a great article, but there is one thing that isn't emphasized that should be. Some of the "pilgrims" had disagreed with the "socialist" idea before they even voyaged to America. The people that funded their trip required it, and there was dispute among them about this. Some were upset that others had agreed to these terms.

In other words, after-the-failure was NOT the first time the pilgrims realized that the whole "common ownership" thing was a bad idea." It just took the problems to get them to go against their agreement with their funders and switch to each having their own land and growing their own food.

Finally, some sense in this discussion.

Thank you jgr.
