Osel said:Sad. Islam was a tragedy for Egypt. The Khemetics and the Ptolemaic Greeks did so much for not only their local civilization, but for the world. Then the Coptics. Three great cultures destroyed by the invading Arab hordes, who defaced the great pyramids for their mosques and military forts, who ransacked and destroyed the Christian churches, and corrupted the history of one of the greatest nations to have ever existed.

LittlePinky82 said:Look at our country. Church and State now mix together. We have no right to be self-righteous on the issue since we are no better. It's very hypocritical when there are Christians give a whole holier than thou critism of Islam being involved in politics in mid east countries but a lot of them need to seriously look in the mirror and what they are trying to do here in my country which I as well weep for.

Sure, why not? What does that have to do with the US though? The US isn't a religious theocracy. Far from it. It is hard to believe anyone could in all seriousness make a comparison to the religion problems of Egypt and the US.

They didn't? I had no idea. They expected the American people to vote contrary to their religious values? Hmm...interesting. I always thought that was a silly liberal innovation.LittlePinky82 said:Far from it? I don't think so. If you're not upset you're just not paying attention. Now when judges are up for nomination of the highest court of the land guess what he/she has to tell plays a factor? Their religion which the founding fathers didn't want to play a factor.
What about it?LittlePinky82 said:Why else did Bush keep going on and on about Harriet Miers and her religion for her nomination? Why else did he have James Dobson come out and go "wink wink, nudge nudge"?
They're coming for the gay people?LittlePinky82 said:As I said: first they came for the gay people..... And hey when it does happen don't say I didn't warn you. It's your own fault for "being sleepy".
LittlePinky82 said:You think everybody in Egypt does? I didn't know you were a national spokesman for Egypt and all their citizen's.

Take out your tinfoil hats everyone.
LittlePinky82 said:Uh yeah. Remember the big hubub last year with the Jews when Jerry Falwell had stickers going around that said to vote for your moral values and vote republican? Remember last year when many people said that Bush "won" (stole) the last election because of "moral values"? Please give me a break. Playing ignorant won't buy it with me.

"The Muslim Brotherhood has supported non-Muslim candidates for parliament," Issam El-Aryan told IslamOnline.net's online radio Tuesday, November 22.
