    I understand about supercession of the Old Testament by the New. The tradition still includes Moses. A kook can focus on any part he wants to justify his aims. He's not limited by the doxa of the true believer, and never has been. This has been as true of Judaism and Christianity as it is of islam, historically speaking. Nobody's got the corner on violent zealotry.

    Not at all. Why don't you consider the point?

    The three major world religions relevant to this conversation include Moses.
    Christians aren't a group of people. I also wouldn't include Muslims in a major religion category. But going up more recently, would be Abraham. With his son Isaac to the Jews and Christians and his other son Ismail to Muslims.

    Yeah. Whether it is their culture or their religion. Islam is attacking the free world. No other religion is doing this with no condemnation of their fellow religious leaders.

    No condemnation? This is surely false. You're not paying attention, SnC. Islam may not bless our wars, but it does condemn terrorists as un-Islamic. It's practically a ritual by now.

    Is it still your contention that Islam's 1.5 billion adherents worldwide are at all war with us? That the creed, as such, is our enemy?

    All religions have political dimensions. The US Conference of Bishops lobbies against abortion? So what? What are you talking about? More Caliphate tinhat?

    Yeah some of them may still be alive.Probablly the same guys that were in the streets for democracy that this regime ignored. Wow to dredge this small vigil up to prove your point is pathetic, when you compare it the mul udes across the muslim world that where dancing in the streets for joy on 9-11.

    To have another Ottoman Empire, you'd need another Turkey behind it.

    You forget. We had the whole world on our side, including the lion's share of Muslims and even the Iranians.

    And we blew it. That's what's really pathetic.

    I guess the difference is between a political lobbying group like the Catholic Bishops, and a Government like Sharia, or the caliphate.

    So? There is no considerable political power behind islamofascism, nor does it exist as a coherent movement in its own right. In order to become a political power, it would need a regional base and a political party. It has neither.

    Christianity took over Europe and much of the Mediterranean. There's a materialist take on everything. Are you a historical materialist, micca?

    Europe was attaked already by the muslim world's effort to conquer Europe and were stopped at the gates of vienna.This isn't the first attack the west has had to deal with
