Disingenuous answer.
Media always validates any obscure ISIS claim. They need a boogeyman.
Disingenuous answer.
No, you're very purposefully excluding Muslim from "religious expression".
It's as disingenuously simple as that.
Lol "wrong team".
What an utter piece of post from top to bottom.
Lol you are stupid if you think for a second that your deflections will ever cons ute an argument that is properly constructed.
I don’t have to lobby for the expression of Islamic faith. I don’t have to like it. I don’t even have to legitimize any of their doctrinal ideology. But Muslims can practice their religion here in the USA. They are afforded the same Cons utional freedoms that all other Citizens are granted.
The caveat being that application of certain aspects of Sharia Law are uncons utional and therefore in direct conflict with application of Federal jurisprudence (and most State, County and Municipal Law). For example, under the Cons ution people are guaranteed due process be it for civil or criminal court (the only exceptions being cases that are tried under Military Tribunals). They have a right to face their accuser. They have a right to defend themselves. They have a right to an attorney. Strict adherence to Sharia Law, however, deprives people of these basic rights and therefore the U.S. Cons ution rightfully takes precedence.
The point I was making was that I need not talk about Islam to point out that your assertion that the U.S. State Department’s foreign policy was to lobby for the freedom of religious expression ONLY for Christians. After I pointed out your error and called you out for your latent ignorance on the matter you shifted the premise of your argument with a deflection tactic.
In the 14 years I’ve been on this site you’ve never once admitted to a mistake. So I don’t expect the trend to change.

The cuck isn't exactly packing. And you just beat him to his best insult.
I'm not responding to all of your long winded garbage.
The only assertion I was making here is that you think protecting religious freedom should not apply to Muslims. That you're a hypocritical bigot.
But now you're backpedaling off of that. Sort of.
So now you’re resorting to lying? Got it. I didn’t make that argument; you simply made it up.
Some things around here never change.
I didn't hear any unmistakable words in that video. How was that individual recording it and not getting assaulted herself?
Where’s the outrage about the historical persecution of Muslim Uighurs by the Chinese? (they persecute Christians too, btw)
This idea that the rest of the world affords the same religious or even political protections that the US affords it’s citizens is extremely naive, and really ignorant (especially if we’re talking historically).
What’s even worse is that specifically a Christian would bring up the historical implications of society in general moving to secularism as a problem, despite the well do ented abuses of authority and power when the Church *was* in control.
You know why the world moved to secularism? Because we learned our lesson. Going all the way back to The Crusades, to burning ‘witches’, etc. The same people that now about the lack of rights for women on the caliphate, seem to forget that the roles for women in their own religion nowadays (good luck seeing a female Pope until Jesus enlightens them again).
The world simply understood that religion is a personal choice. As such, there’s no role in government for it, other than to try to protect their citizens to practice it (and YMMV on that depending on the country).
At the end of the day, a cursory look at the world today and historically shows that theocracies are much, much worse than secular democracies. It’s not even close.
I didn't say you said it as an argument. I'm saying it's very clearly implied that the only religious freedom you want to protect is Christianity.
Lol "wrong team".
The Poisonous Politics Behind the Right’s ‘Easter Worshippers’ Smear Campaign
Religious Right leaders and right-wing media operations moved quickly to exploit the devastating Easter Sunday bombings in Sri Lanka
to advance a political message they hope will mobilize a high turnout among conservative white evangelical voters in 2020.
It’s the same dishonest claim that Religious Right leaders hammered hard in 2016 in their efforts to defeat Hillary Clinton and elect Donald Trump:
Democrats are enemies of faith, religious freedom and Christianity itself.
Obama and Clinton and some other Democrats described the church-goers as “Easter worshippers” in their tweets,
but did not use the word “Christians.”
right-wing activists from alleging that
the Democrats’ wording is evidence of anti-Christian bigotry and
a refusal to recognize that the bombings targeted Christians.
the right-wing outrage was highly selective and purely partisan.
Tweets of sympathy from
President Donald Trump,
House GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy,
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, and
U.S. Ambassador for International Religious Freedom Sam Brownback—a Religious Right favorite—
also did not include the word “Christian.”

And so-called Christians, who fellate Trash as godly, as sent by their God, suck down the Christian propaganda and lies as Bible truth
Obviously, our boy Phenom is an easy mark for propaganda.

but it is also trivially true to point out that it was also founded on the general lack of conventional piety, or indeed of any prevalent, generally shared religion.
this stupid conspiracy theory
This schtick losing all traction.
Compulsive pscyopav with no end game.
I'm laughing at your stupid conspiracy theory.
What's your end game, derp?Compulsive pscyopav with no end game.
I know you speak in jest, but America was also founded on slavery, feminine disenfranchisement and a lot of other customs of the day. The world has evolved dramatically since.
Tomorrow the NFL Draft, right now this very second the NBA playoffs. Then we have all that music and things to occupy our minds.
What do they do over there?
No USC vs UCLA, Texas vs Oklahoma, Michigan vs Ohio State, no anything to get into it.
Now add the Quran which is beyond re ed and stupid. Nothing there but PUNISH, KILL, FIRE, PUNISH, KILL, FIRE.
No wonder we see so much stupid bull coming out of Islam/Middle East.
What a stupid post.
false. FFs knew how the corrupt nexus between Church and Royalty had oppressed Europe for 1000 years.
USA was founded as an non-democratic, secular oligarchy
Not at all guy. Just what do those people have going on over there, well? We have TONS of things to do, think about, what do they really have over there to occupy their minds, well?
They freed us from the Mosque and Ottoman Royalty
The sacred Cons ution has been abused and rigged by oligarchy, so that a rigged economy, a captured govt, and the Cons ution are untouchable.
