Jesus said.....

Luke 18:16
.....Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.

Jesus didn't say burn children.

Evangelical Christians in Africa burn children in the name of Jesus Christ.

Annie,

It sounds like those 'Evangelical Christians' in Africa are worshippers of Molech.

Nope - they've just been told that's how you deal with witches. Surely you've heard about it.

What witchcraft did those children commit ?

And, are 'Evangelical Christians' in Africa, Hebrews ? ....in that they ['Evangelical Christians'] are enforcing laws that applied to those who were living among the Hebrew people, of old.

Clearly those 'Evangelical Christians' in Africa are in error.

But will they be corrected ?

I doubt it.

Ezekiel 11:19
And I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within you; and I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them an heart of flesh:
20 That they may walk in my statutes, and keep mine ordinances, and do them: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God.
21 But as for them whose heart walketh after the heart of their detestable things and their abominations, I will recompense their way upon their own heads, saith the Lord GOD.

Those 'Evangelical Christians' in Africa, are killing children [as witches], because those 'Evangelical Christians' in Africa, have a 'purpose' [of their own] in killing those children.

They certainly do, Y. They want to remove the devil from those children. Witchcraft?

In our culture, we call it epilepsy or cerebral palsy. In some Pentacostal-inspired African villages, the cure is nailing nails into childrens’ heads.

It is a jolly word, no?

There are some f.cked up Muslims out there, but dealing with them is not the responsibility of other Muslims who are just trying to deal with life.

What about uttering the word freedom in a positive context, in response to all the other Muslims who are openly hostile to freedom. Is that an unreasonable expectation?

I can't believe you of all people think that the greatest threat to our freedom at this current time is Muslims. God, Freediver - our freedoms are being ripped out from us while people like you are looking at the horizon for a threat that isn't even there.

Are we free to make a movie that mocks Muhammed? How many Australian actors do you think would refuse a paid role in such a movie out of genuine fear for their personal safety? How far away is that horizon?

About as far as any Syrian or Iraqi who wants to go.back to.the old country to.catch up.with the rellos could be arrested upon their return. About as far as the penalties for sending money overseas go as high as 30 years max.

No problem for me - I’m sure the Feds won’t whack related Scottish nationalists on their retrospective list of banned countries and aid organizations.

I hope so, anyway. You?

The article is factually incorrect - islam does permit the corporal punishment of wives and gives women half the value of men in law. It also incorrect for these and other reasons in saying that muslim women can embrace both their muslim and australian identity.
Removing Islam from among the causes of muslim women’s problems is a false and unsupportable argument. It is ludicrous, especially from a lawyer.

“the issues faced by catholic women in australia have nuffin to do with christianity.” krayem’s argument is just as specious.

Good point, FD. Who do I blame for our government’s laws?

Hmm. Decisions decisions.

When did personal responsibility stop being a part of Freeeedom?

He’s hiding, FD. Sneaky G.

You know what these Moslems are like with their mothers’ skirts.

Oh, why won’t they take responsibility for their actions?

dunno S - could have something to do with the "peaceful" muslims urging non-violence and tolerance?

Just a guess.

So unless you are next to them while they are saying that, you can’t tell them apart.

So what is the poor infidel to do? Any one of them could be a rabid jihadi or peaceful.

If you took your kid to childcare and they told you that a few of the workers are rampant sexual predators but most are OK - what would you do? Or some of the barbers in your area were cut throats but most not.
What would you do? Take your chances and let your kiddie take his?
No. You would demand that the workers and barbers clear up their ranks. That is what you and Annie and Brain and the rest of you would do.
And that is what non muslims are demanding of you.
Shrugging your shoulders and saying it has nuffin to do wiv nuffin’ is an option only if you want to remain feared and shunned.

Every terror attack, hijacking and bombing in Australia in the last 100 years has been carried out by Christians.

Not true. The turkish embassy and consulate bombings were bu kurds who are muslims. The hilton bombing was by ananda marga.

Except that the Ananda Margas (a Hindu meditation group) were found innocent and released. Tim Anderson and Evan Pederick served eight years in Long Bay, in what is seen as a landmark case in police verballing and the use of police informants.

The consensus of the NSW parliament (1995) is that there is enough evidence to suggest that the police did it.

The Turkish Consulate General bombing in Melbourne was conducted by no less than the Justice Commandos for the Armenian Genicide, The convicted bomber, Levon Demirion, was a Coptic Christian.

There was no Turkish Embassy bombing. The carpark murder of the Turkish diplomat was performed by the above Armenian terrorist organization.

Ignore this post, old boy. We know you will!

They may think what they like but looking at the world and other people and constructing a view of human relations where the value of women is half of men, where a fundamental fatalism is shot through everything, where a 7th century warlord’s example is the unsurpassable measure of behaviour, where SUBMISSION is the alpha and omega of human life is to live in a world where fundamental Australian and western values like freedom, self-determination, irreverent open-mindedness, creative freedom take a decided second place if they get a lookin at all.
It is a paradox. You can think it but you can’t live it.
’Mate, she’s a larrikin, insh’allah’.
Really???
