An Interfaith Christmas

Noir hardly defends Islam.

Which means nothing. His tactic of attacking our beliefs and never theirs is pretty obvious.

I guess that makes me a diehard Hindu too.

There is a difference between attacking and not defending.

There is a difference between attacking and not defending.

There is. One's a bit sneakier than the other. Or, one's more indirect than the other.

So ?

I fixored quotes because of mindless blatherings and whinings. Has it stopped after I stopped fixing quotes?

Sorry, not playing that game. If you have an issue with quoting others, you can just hit the reply button without quoting them, or just not reply to them at all.

Not much. When your attack is to cover your defense.

The Nazis had one of the most offensive armies in its day. They didn't defend very well.

Only when you're trying to make some distinction where none exists.

I'm not playing any games. I have no issue quoting others.

H'm. Well, I'm sure Noir can speak for himself when expressing his thanks for your support.

Allah is *NOT* the God of Heaven, Gabs.

In the spirit of love and understanding, our Muslim neighbors are going to attend Christmas eve services at our church. I told them to extend an invitation to others at their mosque.
Our neighbors celebrate Christmas the same way we do. They have a Christmas tree and greet others with "Merry Christmas!" They observe all American holidays, in order to allow their children to properly assimilate with others. They also observe all Muslim holidays.
You may not like it or agree with it, but we do all worship the same God.

Ask ANY muslim that won't lie to you, and there you will have your answer. The muslim friends I have outright told me along those lines (minus the hellfire). Any muslim scholar will tell you that non believers are kuffir, or infidels, and need to convert or go to hell. You will hear such talk even in mosques.

Within a catholic church you will not hear a priest telling parishioners such, nor guests. Yes, you will have some parishioners telling non-believers that they will not enter the kingdom of heaven unless they accept Jesus as their lord and savior.

One is forceful around the world, even killing hundreds of thousands in the past few years for being the "wrong faith".

Listen to some REAL preaching. Fast forward to 7 minute mark to the 8 minute mark if you don't have time for the whole sermon. Only Jesus Christ can save one from hell.

I'm honestly baffled with you at times. You obviously detest Islam, or wouldn't make such a statement. But most of the time it appears that any discussion around Islam, terrorists, terrorism, radical Islam... not much input or condemnation from you. But you grew up the catholic way, I assume been to quite a few churches as well. Obviously there aren't continued and nearly daily attacks of sorts within the christian world. No one will kill you if you don't convert. In fact, I don't think any harm in the slightest bit will come to you for your beliefs or not wanting to be a part of the faith. And yet, for whatever reason, you don't seem to miss a chance to condemn or take a swipe at said faith.

Why so much effort towards the obviously harmless religion, and not much interest in the deadly one? Does it not bother you, the endless killings around the world? I understand that there aren't folks jumping up and down supporting them, therefore no "debate" for you, but that doesn't add up for me. We all talk tons and tons of stuff when not debating the other folks, you know, a "discussion" of sorts. But appears you don't have any interest.

^^^^ Fear and cowardice, all damn libs in the world are ate up with it although they in their , arrogant and hard hearts, have no revulsion at the actual murder in the millions of their opponents.

Within every liberal's chests beats a wick and black heart filled with conceit, arrogance , hate , envy and abject stupidity.
Correct me, if I have left any proper adjective out.. Tyr
