hypocritical Christians complaining about islamic infiltration of the school system
October 18, 2012 at 10:21 pm
Ok, Breathe.... Breathe... Try not to scream... Seriously this link pisses me off. I have so many of my ahole Christian friends push for school prayer, Bible classes, Bible verses and other crap all over the school, and all sorts of crap. They try to tell me that there is no separation of church and state in the U.S. That this is a Christian nation (translation: theocracy). All sorts of bullshit like this. And just a few minutes ago one of the worst of the worst goes and posts this: http://link.brightcove.com/services/play...1237687001
He was complaining about Islamic infiltration in the school system. f**ing hypocrite! I can't tell you how many times I have said that if the Muslims were doing the same thing or Islam were the dominate religion his attitude would be different
Ugh! This is not working....must...go...vent...elswhere.
I have studied the Bible and the theology behind Christianity for many years. I have been to many churches. I have walked the depth and the breadth of the religion and, as a result of this, I have a lot of bullshit to scrape off the bottom of my shoes. ~Ziploc Surprise

I guess if I vent on him I'd get banned. Ugh!
This is the sort of crap I have been saying for decades. That separation between church and state protects one religion from being dominated (via the state) from another. And I was a Christian and I knew this. This is part of what I said in reply to this guy (it's the nicer bit) "I'm beginning to really appreciate growing up in an area where Christianity was a minority religion. You really get to understand and appreciate the separation of church and state."

I don't really know how this "infiltration" is supposed to happen.

And what is this all about then?
I'll tell you. It's nothing more than the public enemy factor. However, now it's not quite based on reality. In the time when communism was still at large, people were stating, not complaining, because they took action against it, that communism was infiltrating the schools. And it was visible to everyone that it did that, because people heard of political violence spreading like wildfire, pamphlets and booklets flying around school cafeterias, flags being torn down, replaced with the red flag of the communists, and with teachers, professors and assistants professing openly their adherence to marxism, giving support to communist students academically and ideologically, while doing the exact opposite for students of other ideologies.
In short, the threat of communism in schools and universities was a visible one.
I'm not sure how Islam shows this kind of a thing in western schools.

The public enemy factor is real. And throughout history, several public enemy factors were in place. But you're missing the point.
I'll lead you.
Sometimes, you make the public enemy, and sometimes, the subject that is to be the "public enemy" makes itself into one.
For communism, the second one rang true.
For Islam and Moslems in general, the first one did.

There is an old joke, Mehmet, with a lot of variations but it goes something like this.
A guy is walking down 5th Avenue in New York City and sees another guy standing there snapping his fingers. He says to him "what are you doing, man?"
The guy pauses from snapping his fingers long enough to say " I'm keeping the tigers away."
The first guy says "this is New York...there are no tigers here."
The second guy says "See?"
Think of this as a useless, middle-America way of snapping their fingers.
