"To retreat further - means to waste ourselves
and to waste at the same time our Motherland. Therefore it is necessary to eliminate talk that we have the capability endlessly to retreat...it weakens us and benefits the enemy... This leads to the conclusion, it is time to stop retreating. Not one step back! Such should now be our slogan." - Order 227

About 7 years ago, I worked with a guy who I considered pretty smart. He had designed a couple of credit scoring and risk management software programs, and sold his company to Fair Issac. I commuted to work from another state, so I was without my family during the week and we used to have deep conversations late into the night about politics and religion. He was a big believer in education and was pursuing his Ph.d in Comparative Religious Studies, just to have something to do in is spare time. Our conversations on the Bible and religion often turned toward Islam, as he had a deep conviction that Islam was something to be feared and watched, that it was more then a religion and had strong political and social agendas. When the night got late and he had to go home to his family, he always ended the conversation by encouraging me to do my own research. Since then I've done quite a bit of research on Islam, even spending a week's vacation reading through several books that I had added to my library and reading several research papers on the impact that Muslim immigration was having on European countries.
I learned that my friend was right. I encourage you to watch this video, and if you believe that I'm exaggerating or have some type of religious bigotry, then I'll say to you the same thing my friend said to me on those late nights over beers, if you don't believe me do your own research and prove me wrong.
While the plans to build a mosque at ground zero move forward over much criticism, Muslims who demand tolerance and understanding from Christians aren't so accommodating in their homelands.
From the Jakarta Globe:
Bekasi, Indonesia. In the latest attack by extremists on religious minorities in West Java, 300 Islamic hard-liners intimidated, bullied and assaulted a priest and 20 Christian churchgoers praying in a field in Bekasi on Sunday morning.
The attack follows an identical incident last Sunday, when 300 members of the Islamic Defenders Front (FPI) and Islamic People’s Forum (FUI) protested against members of the Batak Christian Protestant Church (HKBP) from Pondok Timur Indah.
Churchgoers have been worshipping in a field in Ciketing Asem after the Bekasi municipality sequestered their church and sealed it from use.
Bekasi Mayor Mochtar Mohammad reportedly promised to let the Christian group hold church activities in Bekasi’s public areas and also agreed to send police to safeguard the church’s activities.
That appeared not to have happened on Sunday.
Reverend Luspida Simanjuntak was quoted as saying, “Each time we pray, we are shadowed by terror. If we’re not allowed to worship in the field, give us a facility elsewhere."
Meanwhile in Malaysia:
And this headline from the Daily Telegraph, click to jump to the complete article.
Is the United States of America a country based upon Christian beliefs and values? Should America forget and bury it's heritage and it's history in the name of compromise and tolerance? What do YOU believe? I'm all for respecting the views and beliefs of ALL Americans. But I also believe it time to stand up and demand the same from others.
