LMFAO Quote from: TheDignityofStruggle on Yesterday at 05:35:46 PM Quote from: picasso moon on Yesterday at 03:42:24 PM I don't know a single person involved in the 9/11 truth movement who only wants to "fight for truth about this one event." But someone who claims to be concerned about the big picture has a plausibility problem when they absolutely refuse to deal with the details of one of the frames, one rather obvious frame. ....But most people in the truth movement, at least the mainstream of the truth movement (an odd concept, I know) have sort of a "take back America from TPTB," sort of mindset. Most truth movement folks aren't even PO aware or they reject PO as a globalist conspiracy..... PicMo, I don't understand what you mean by the 9-11 event being a "frame." the 'frame' of the Oil Age Movie. Lasting 120+ years so far. And this is Exactly how you get the 'truth'. PO, Climate Weirding, Greatest Concentration of WealthEver, Sixth Extinction Event, HumanPopOvershoot. And then Overlay the PoliEcon(note ZERO Universities teach same;} and you'll get an EXACT match with each OIL Discovery/Production Watershed.

Rip the pages out and line your bird cage with it. It is not a holy book. Germany's leading Jewish group, the Central Council of Jews, has condemned Terry Jones' plans to burn the Koran. In a statement issued Wednesday, the organization's president, Charlotte Knobloch, said the idea was "terrible and repulsive" and that it reminded her of the Nazis' infamous book-burning in 1933. "Where they burn books, they will end up burning people," she said, quoting the 19th-century German author Heinrich Heine. www.spiegel.de/internatio...rld/0,1518,716409,00.html lucysmom  posted on  2010-09-11   9:58:44 ET  Reply   Trace   Private Reply   #8.

I would say Stone needs to crack open his King James more then he needs to lust for dubious revenge against a religion that had adherents die in the attacks, and has service men and women in the U.S. Armed forces. I know many Muslims who are good productive citizens of the United States. One of them who is a vendor in Portland Saturday Market even has a Jewish wife. I am glad we have Muslims living in the United States, and as long as the U.S. Constitution remains healthy and unmolested, there will always be religious tolerance here as per the First Amendment which uphold religious freedom as well as freedom of speech. It is ironic Stone has a forum allegedly celebrating one half of the First Amendment, and a thread slamming the other. Well if you have to know...forgot to take my meds..you young whipper snapper!

I have a hard time understanding, in fact, I don't understand how Stone can claim to be a child of God who commands "Love thine enemy". I get that to love one's enemy can be difficult and a struggle, however, Stone seems to be celebrating his hate. You have heard that it was said, 'Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be sons of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that? And if you greet only your brothers, what are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that? Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect. " lucysmom  posted on  2010-09-11   10:40:43 ET  Reply   Trace   Private Reply   #16.

Love thy enemy doesn't include not confronting them that they use a book that leads them to hell. If you hate them you would just keep quiet and not say anything. If you love them you would confront their book of lies and evil. But I don't expect you do understand that. You have been indoctrinated with a unhealthy dose of liberalism. Was maplethorp a hater?

It may be that something has fall--yet we don't know, to be perfectly honest. But that is what you're looking at, the current--that's the scene at this moment at the World Trade Center. Don Dahler from ABC's "Good Morning America" is down in--in the general vicinity. Don, can you tell us what has just happened? DAHLER: Yes, Peter. Don Dahler. I'm four blocks north of the World Trade Center. The second building that was hit by the plane has just completely collapsed. The entire building has just collapsed, as if a demolition team set off--when you see the old demolitions of these old buildings. It folded down on itself, and it's not there any more.

They do it all the time." We do it too. I've even stolen a very large flag local anarchists were going to drag around and burn. I've also burned flags - that were worn out as is what is called for in American Flag protocol. As for the Bible burning the Armed Forces did, it was not an act of protest, it is the normal standard operating procedure to dispose of material there is no room to store, and could cause inflamed passions locally that could endanger the health and well being of troops in Afghanistan. "The founders weren't talking about Islam when they said freedom of religion. Islam is a satanist cult. They were talking about Baptists, Presbyterians etc." No, they remembered well that many came here to this continent because of religious persecution. The U.S. Constitution was written to be a living entity that provided protection covering change and evolution of culture and life in these United States. The First Amendment protects, Christianity, Islam, the Latter Day Saints, Wicca, and any other religion of choice. And as the freedom of speech in that amendment works because people are accountable for the ramifications of their speech, people are responsible for the ramifications of their religious endeavors. Christianity evolves. Martin Luther was disgusted with the problems of Catholicism and sparked the Protestant Reformation. Islam evolves too. Many of it's believers and followers are hard working, decent people, many of which died in the destruction of 9-11 and serve proudly in the U.S. Armed Forces. It is better to recognize th goos aspects of Islam and dialog for change if one sees the need to do so in that faith - or Christianity too for that matter. There are over a billion Muslims all over the globe, you are not going to wipe that faith out. All intolerance and acts meant to denigrate, insult or belittle Islam just removes dialog and community between people who need this to make life better for everyone. Burning the Koran does nothing to hurt Islam. But it does make those doing it look backward, vicious and shallow, and is contrary to the spirit of the words of the Founding Fathers ensconced in the U.S. Constitution of the United States of America.

It is God's plan for salvation, not AKA Stone's. If you believe that God is who He says He is in the Bible than you know He is perfectly capable of saving souls without your direction or help. Paul instructs the wife of the unbeliever to win her husband over not with her words, but with her behavior.

To: A K A Stone (#24) "You don't know the motives. You only know what they said the motives were. Regardless it is a constitutional violation for the govt to do it. Zero is derelict at duty" Actually, I do know. I was in Special Forces that is part of Special Operations Command which deals largely in low intensity conflict and the TM calls for shredding or burning of material that could compromise efforts to win hearts and minds in the commission of successfully achieving the overall mission in a conflict. There was nothing temperamental or hateful about this disposal. The Bibles were a problem in that it would of given Taliban combatants a potent tool to sustain and deepen the warfare into a wider conflict. If the Taliban had been able to access the Bibles, they would of spread them around to cause problems for us and give themselves a propaganda coup. They wouldn't of burned them. They want Christians to come spread Bibles around to help them alarm people enough so more support them allowing them to deepen and strengthen their efforts to kill our people and win their war. It was done to protect servicemen and women there, not to insult any religion. This falls directly in the lap of something I know well as part of corps I was in as an American Paratrooper.
