Roger, you say, " ... opinion, unlike principles, are not sacred possessions to be protected, locked away and defended from all intruders. Rather, they are, or should be, living and evolving attitudes, constantly subjected to rigorous revision and adjustment — or, when neccessary, quickly abandoned for some more plausible or cojent truth."
That is a very important statement. As bloggers we most often write our "opinions", which are based on our knowledge and information at this given point in time. As we learn more we may change our minds about something.
Concerning Mohammad, your commenter is correct when he says the followers of Mohammad believe what is written in Islam's sacred books, therefore they follow what is written.
However there are groups who are straying from this and acknowledging that the religion needs to be changed. Muslims Against Sharia is an excellent example of this and you should check out their site if you are not familiar with it.
An excellent article Roger. The problem as I see it is our politicians. Very few of them realize the decisions we make today toward Islam, will have dire consequences for the US in the future.
Roger: You don't have to get your checks or registers from your bank. You can order them from any number of other places, with only the information on them that you want. That's what I have done for years. They are cheaper too.
It is pathetic that our country has come to this. I foresee a battle one day between the Hispanics and the Muslims over who will eventually control America. Just kidding, but it's almost that bad.
I got fed up when I went shopping at Wal-Mart (I know but that's another subject), and all the labels on the meats were in Spanish FIRST and English SECOND. I pitched a fit and apparently other shoppers did too. Now the Spanish is gone.
You ask, "Is this what our once proud and advanced Western Civilization has come down to?" The answer is yes. Just this week, Hollywood, Fox, and CAIR had a get-together on how to present Muslims in the media/movies/TV/ etc. Wouldn't want to offend them by portraying them as terrorists or anything, would we? CAIR praised FOX. When CAIR praises anything, then I'm against it.
Very nice article. I like your description "Age of Unreason". It fits perfectly. Everything that seems like good common sense, is being thrown out the window under the guise of political correctness. I've said all along it will lead to America's demise if we do not put it in check.
