"The "survival of the world" is at stake if Muslims and Christians do not make peace with each other, leaders of the Muslim world will warn the Pope and other Christian leaders today.
In an unprecedented open letter signed by 138 leading scholars from every sect of Islam, the Muslims plead with Christian leaders "to come together with us on the common essentials of our two religions" and spell out the similarities between passages of the Bible and the Koran.
Uh, yeah.....Hey guys, how about writing a letter to the followers of your faith first and get them to stop slicing off heads and blowing shit up. I mean it's just a suggestion, but if that stopped I am sure we could you know, like "come together".
Like this guy....."Austrian authorities said Thursday they arrested an elderly Turkish-born man suspected of fatally shooting a younger Turkish associate and slicing off the victim's penis in what investigators called an "honor killing."
Or...these guys..... "A Muslim mob armed with guns and steel rods attacked the New Apostolic Church in Hadyara, on the outskirts of Lahore. They beat up worshippers, including a child, and damaged property."
How about these apples? "A Pakistan Christian who was previously acquitted of blasphemy is still in hiding almost a year after charges were dropped because Muslim militants are trying to kill him, a report from Release International has said."
In addition, a 16-year-old boy is now a fugitive in fear of his life after a squabble with another schoolboy led to accusations of blasphemy."
Yes, we can come together in PEACE!!!! Hallelujah!
"Al-Hayat al-Jadida, the largest Palestinian Authority (PA) daily newspaper controlled by PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas, featured a cartoon this week that illustrated a prayer for the killing of Americans."
The words of the cartoon character's prayer adorn four missiles aimed at the American plane. These are his wishes:
"Allah, scatter them!! And turn their wives into widows!! And turn their children into orphans!! And give us victory over them!!"
Now that sounds pretty peaceful to me.
"Christian shop owners stand up to Palestinian rioters. This week, one of their own was kidnapped and tortured to death in Hamas-controlled Gaza. CAIR (which is linked to Hamas) has refused to condemn the killing."

"Would anti-Sharia legislation be unconstitutional? A constituent of Congressman Mel Watt (D-NC) sent him this message on July 26, 2007:
To the Honorable Representative of the State of North Carolina:
In order to assure the protection of the American People and the preservation of our Constitution, I think at this point in American history it would be a good idea to introduce legislation like the following:
"In no instance shall the practice of Islamic Sharia law be established or permitted within any state or territory under the jurisdiction of the United States of America."
Thank you.
Watt sent back this response, dated September 14, 2007:
Thank you for your email about the establishment and practice of Islamic Sharia law in the United States.
The First Amendment of the United States Constitution guarantees the free exercise of religious principles. Therefore, I believe that the language proposed in your email would be unconstitutional and I would not support it.
I appreciate your input on this issue. If I or my staff can be of further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Sincerely,
Melvin L. Watt"
WTF??????
Once again, I say to these "138 leading scholars from every sect of Islam": TAKE CARE OF YOUR SHIT FIRST, THEM WE'LL TALK.
