A Message of Revolution

We live in a tupsy-turvy world. Good is evil, evil is good, right is wrong, wrong is right, lies are truths, truths are lies. Regardless of one’s political preferences, regardless of one’s religious creed or absence thereof some things must be said and repeated often enough for them to penetrate the collective consciousness. Though I am a proud and staunchly Orthodox Jew, I am compelled to quote words which I consider a true reflection of the world we live in. The excerpt below is taken from the address by Minister Joe Wright at the new session opening of the Kansas House of Representatives in 1996:

We know Your Word says, “Woe to those who call evil good”, [Woe to those who speak of evil as good and of good as evil - my translation of the original Hebrew in Isaiah 5:20] but that is exactly what we have done.

We have lost our spiritual equilibrium and reversed our values. We confess that.

We have ridiculed the absolute truth of Your Word and called it Pluralism.

We have exploited the poor and called it the lottery,

We have rewarded laziness and called it welfare,

We have killed our unborn and called it choice,

We have shot abortionists and called it justifiable,

We have neglected to discipline our children and called it building self-esteem,

We have abused power and called it politics,

We have coveted our neighbor’s possessions and called it ambition,

We have polluted the air with profanity and pornography and called it freedom of expression,

We have ridiculed the time-honored values of our forefathers and called it enlightenment.

When Reverend Wright spoke those words one Democrat legislator walked out in disgust, another called him called narrow minded and bigoted. But were they right? Through my posts I have often decried the West’s loss of spirituality and its replacement with valueless values, its replacement with instant gratification that neither lasts nor gratifies.

As the West becomes “enlightened”, as synagogues and churches who preach love remain half empty, mosques with extremist Imams who preach hatred and submission of the West are filled. The West has lost its motivation, it lives in a dream world full of complacency and lack of values. The fight, the thirst for life has left it and been replaced with emptiness. Reverend Wright spoke those words eleven years ago. Their sounds, their truths still ring strong, still seek to awaken to shake out of our comfortable slumber. Truth is often inconvenient, often brutal, but absolutely eternal!

Aldous Huxley once said that speaking the truth is often a revolutionary act. If such is the case I am proud, to have quoted the words above and hope and pray they will penetrate the hearts of the West so we can start the revolution back to our values, back to our civilization, back to true and lasting enlightenment... while we still can!

Christian Woman Forced To Become A Muslim In Gaza

What religion with any sanity would want a convert by force? Would you truly believe that someone who was forced into a religion really would behold that very same religion? I believe not. There is no credibility to such acts of force, but there is a foundation for such practices in Islam. The Muslims Koran allows for such conversions by force - by the sword.

A Gaza Christian woman was forced to become a Muslim then marry a Muslim man that is a professor at the Palestinian International University.

Hamas-aligned officials at Gaza City’s Palestine International University have been accused of forcibly converting one of their female Christian colleagues to Islam.

Sana al-Sayegh, head of the university’s Science and Technology Department, disappeared in late June, reported WorldNetDaily. Days later she contacted her family and indicated that she was being held against her will and would have to marry a Muslim man who was also a professor at the university.

Another week passed and the family received a conversion certificate stating that their daughter was now a Muslim. One of the witnesses who signed the document was the university president, a known Islamist with strong ties to Hamas.

When the family complained to the Hamas authorities, they were promptly visited by a group of heavily-armed militants who insisted Sayegh’s conversion and marriage had been matters of free will.

Sayegh reportedly returned to work last week, but has not contacted her family. Attempts by the family to contact her new husband have gone unanswered.

Gaza is home to a tiny Christian community of only 2,000, among a Muslim majority of more than one million. When Hamas secured outright control of Gaza in June, the group declared that the area’s Christians would have to submit to strict Islamic law.

Religion of peace? Free will? Not on your life my friends.

The Sunset of Christianity

In 1900 Muslims constituted 32 percent of Africa's population; in 1950 they had increased to 37.3 percent [Ecumenical Review, The, July, 2001], and by 2005 they passed the 50% mark.

Normally one would ask, "Who cares what percentage of Africans are Muslim, since Africa appears to present little danger to Western Civilization?" However, consider this: Ethiopia had five million people in 1900; now it has 64 million, and it's projected to have 145 million by 2050 [BBC]. The largest religion in Ethiopia? Islam.

So what we have is an increasing percentage of an increasing population increasingly becoming Muslim. Africa now has the highest birthrate in the world at 5.1 babies per baby-factory. All western European fertility rates are below 2.0, the replacement rate [Royal Geographical Society]. However, hidden inside this dismal statistic is the fact that Muslims within Europe have a birthrate twice that of Christians. So while Christian Europe is declining, Muslim Europe is increasing.

Jesus and Imam Mahdi returning together

Oh God!
If you're interested in prophecy, Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has suggested that 'Jesus would return to the world along with the emergence of the descendant of the Islam's holy prophet, Imam Mahdi'. It is well known that Ahmadinejad sees himself as the chosen one to bring forth the 12th Imam, to 'pave the path for the glorious reappearance of Imam Mahdi'. The suggestion that Jesus and the 12th Imam would return to earth at the same time is something new and quite disturbing.

Ahmadinejad sees Jesus and Mahdi working together to 'wipe away every tinge of oppression, pain and agony from the face of the world'. The Mahdi 'will reign on earth for seven years before bringing about a final judgment and the end of the world'. Sound familiar? In a speech (reported by WND and Ynet), Ahmadinejad offered New Year's greeting to Christians and asked WWJD (What Would Jesus Do)?

What would Jesus do if he were present in the world today? What would he do before some of the oppressive powers of the world who are in fact residing in Christian countries? Which powers would he revive and which of them would he destroy?" asked the Iranian leader.

My question is, WWMD (What Will Mahdi Do)? Spruce Goose has the answer (emphasis mine):

The Islamic Republic of Iran broadcasting website said in a program called "The World toward Illumination," that the Mahdi will form an army to defeat the enemies of Islam in a series of apocalyptic battles, in which the Mahdi will overcome his archvillain in Jerusalem.

The Mahdi's far sightedness and firmness in the face of mischievous elements will strike awe. After his uprising from Mecca all of Arabia will be submit to him and then other parts of the world as he marches upon Iraq and established his seat of global government in the city of Kufa.

Then the Imam will send 10 thousand of his forces to the east and west to uproot the oppressors. At this time God will facilitate things for him and lands will come under his control one after the other. ...

After his appearance the Imam would remain in Mecca for some time, and then go to Medina. ... a descendant of the Prophet's archenemy Abu Sofyan will seize Syria and attack Iraq and the Hejaz with the ferocity of a beast ... finally Imam Mahdi sends troops who kill the Sofyani in Beit ol-Moqaddas (Jerusalem), the Islamic holy city in Palestine that is currently under occupation of the Zionists.


The Iranian series also claims the Mahdi will reappear on Earth with Jesus:

"We read in the book Tazkarat ol-Olia, 'the Mahdi will come with Jesus son of Mary accompanying him.' ... Imam Mahdi will be the leader while Prophet Jesus will act as his lieutenant in the struggle against oppression and establishment of justice in the world. Jesus had himself given the tidings of the coming of God's last messenger and will see Mohammad's ideals materialize in the time of the Mahdi."

More from the Spruce Goose on the Imam's plans for you:

When the Imam emerges he will enlighten people by discussing religion and when people become totally aware of the nature of religion, their conscience would not permit them to reject what is right. Those who obstinately refuse to accept religion will have the sword of the Imam will decisively come down on their neck.”

Just what "religion" is that? One world government religion? Or just plain Muslim? I have never known a less compassionate religion than Islam.

Get ready folks, things could get very interesting.

Hearing Muslim Voices

Seyyed Hossein NasrFrom Speaking of Faith:

September 7, 2006

» Download (mp3, 53:10)
» Listen Now (RealAudio, 53:00)
» Podcast


Dramatic headlines convey a predominantly violent picture of global Islam. But, during the past five years, Muslim guests on SOF have conveyed a thoughtful, questing, diverse, and compelling faith. Step back with us and hear these voices from the traditional and evolving center of Islam. And, Krista speaks with Seyyed Hossein Nasr, an esteemed Muslim scholar who brings a broad religious and historical perspective to hard questions about Islam and the West that have lingered uncomfortably in American life since 9/11.

Although I do not agree with some of the guest's comments regarding America's complicity in Islamic Hate, I found this to be quite informative...after all I will take any Muslim moderate voice (?) I can. Well worth a listen.

Ahmadinejad Delivers Jihad Ultimatum To Europe




“This is an ultimatum. Don’t complain tomorrow.” These are the words of Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to Europe today.



As the Security Council session to determine the sanctioned fate of the Islamic Republic looms, Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad used the occasion of al-Qods Day (Jerusalem Day) to rally the Muslim world and openly threaten Europe. Rather than directly condemn European nations such as Britain, France and Germany for supporting sanctions over the Iranian nuclear program, Ahmadinejad instead used the al-Qods Day event to condemn them before a broader Muslim audience for their support of the state of Israel. He openly threatened European states, saying that their continued support of Israel would soon hurt them.




Argued Ahmadinejad, “You should believe that this regime (Israel) cannot last and has no more benefit to you. What benefit have you got in supporting this regime, except the hatred of the nations?” He went on to send Europe an unveiled threat, saying, “We have advised the Europeans that the Americans are far away, but you are the neighbors of the nations in this region. We inform you that the nations are like an ocean that is welling up, and if a storm begins, the dimensions will not stay limited to Palestine, and you may get hurt.” It was in a speech on al-Qods Day last year that Ahmadinejad declared that Israel should be “wiped from the map.”


On Glenn Beck this week, President Tom, as Beck likes to call Ahmadinejad, was quoted, speaking from his religious beliefs, of bringing the "pure man of peace", the hidden Immam, about in his presidency. It was a segment about scriptural prophecy and the end times from a more or less Christian perspective. If Christians don't believe they are living the "end times" our sworn enemies seem to. You do know who the one who brings war and says, "Peace, Peace" is in Christian literature, don't you? Yes, the Antichrist. Perhaps we are speaking the same language here after all.

Muslim Clerics Reaching Out To The Pope

From Random Thoughts @The Religion Of Peace:

This is almost more than we can stomach. Twice now we've come across the news headline "Muslim Clerics Reach Out to the Pope" to describe an open letter by 38 Muslim scholars to Benedict XVI in response to his suggestion that Islam has a violent history. One would think that the pope is a lonely or deeply disturbed man, needing the company of others to set him straight in his ways as these scholars are so graciously doing.


In fact, the letter was sent the day after Muslims in Iraq beheaded a Priest after holding him and torturing him for two days because they were angry at the Pope's words. They not only cut off his head, but his other limbs as well. There is no mention of this in the letter. Perhaps it occurred too late for the scholars to incorporate it into their text. Fair enough.


But wait! There is no mention of the Catholic nun who was gunned down at a children's hospital by a disgruntled Muslim nearly a month earlier or the other Christians who were killed around the same time. As a matter of fact, there is no mention at all of any of the brutal acts of violence that the Islamic religion pours out on the world each and every day.


Instead, the letter is a study in narcissism, trumpeting the virtues of Islam while blatantly failing to apologize for or even acknowledge its crimes past or present.


This is the reality of the Muslim world today. It is deeply self-consumed and emotionally immature, so willing to blame anyone but itself for the smallest of problems by which it is affected, while pathologically incapable of taking responsibility for the horror that it inflicts on others.


Yes, there is a dialogue that desperately needs to take place, but it is within Islam itself.


Yes Indeed! Self-consumed and emotionally immature. So Allah and Mohammed trump all other prophets and expressions of God? Even to the condesending (and murdering) of all other religious leaders? I guess that's ok in their view. Remember this?

Anjem Choudary said, "The Muslims take their religion very seriously and non-Muslims must appreciate that and that must also understand that there may be serious consequences if you insult Islam and the prophet.


"Whoever insults the message of Mohammed is going to be subject to capital punishment."


He added: "I am here have a peaceful demonstration. But there may be people in Italy or other parts of the world who would carry that out.


"I think that warning needs to be understood by all people who want to insult Islam and want to insult the prophet of Islam."


As well as placards attacking the Pope such as "Pope go to Hell", his followers outside the country's principal Roman Catholic church also waved slogans aimed at offending the sentiments of Christians such as "Jesus is the slave of Allah".


Suppose we just say Death to the Mullahs (scopes be upon them) for insulting religion in general! They are so easily insulted that the joke is now not will they be insulted but with what?


Robert Spencer On The Muslim Veil-with added footage!




First the image of the prophet, then the message of the prophet, now the hijab of the prophet...What next, the hilal food of the prophet?

Found: The Missing Muslim Moderates

Ever since the Twin Towers were destroyed, the West has been calling for any moderate muslims to stand up and be counted, and outside of a very few who have, there's been a deafening silence from the world of Islam. Polls taken in various European countries uniformly show the majority of muslims as being against the West and against Western values and democracy in spite of their living in and enjoying the fruits of Western civilization after fleeing the misery and poverty of the Islamic society they escaped from.

This article claims that 15% of European muslims have converted to Christianity. "There is even a secret underground network to support and protect those who leave Islam. One estimate suggests that as many as 15 per cent of Muslims in Western societies have lost their faith, which would mean that in Britain there are about 200,000 apostates."

Over all of Europe, 15% becomes a huge number and it apparently is still growing. These people are being severely persecuted by the muslim population at large, since muslims who lose their faith face execution or imprisonment, in line with traditional muslim teaching, in many Islamic countries. Not in Europe, of course, but muslims in Europe honor the local laws as little as possible in favor of religious law and the new Christians may still face being murdered for leaving Islam. Even in the face of this, where converts may be attacked by their own families, people are leaving Islam in large numbers.

All of us who have been waiting for the so-called “moderate muslims” to speak out, well, they are and this is how they’re doing it. It only makes sense. Those who are truly moderate could only stay muslims as long as the religion allowed them to live in peace. When it started demanding that they and their children die for it, it was time to go.


This act of separation will peak and then fade as those who are truly the moderates in Islam become "apostate", that is, convert to other religions. The total muslim population in Europe is about 50 million, so about 7.5 million have currently left Islam. These converts, mostly to Christianity, are being so sorely attacked that they will become some of our best fighters against Islam. Islam's imams have shot themselves in the foot by thinking that all muslims will be loyal to a decadent life of poverty after their exposure to the tremendous benefits of Western civilization. I’m willing to bet that most of these converts will be in the forefront of future civil and military action to take back Europe from the Eurabians. They, more than most of us, know full well the consequences to them if Europe becomes ruled by Islamic sharia law.

Newsflash: "Islam is Allah's favorite religion"

Commenting on the Pope's recent remark, Gaza preacher Sheikh Abu Saqer said:
"The day will soon come when the green flag of La Illah Illah Allah (There is no god but Allah) and Muhammad Rasul Allah (Muhammad is the prophet of Allah) will be raised upon the Vatican and all around the world and on the fortresses of those who want to destroy Islam, because they know that this religion obliges them to face the truth that Islam is Allah's favorite religion. And until they join Islam, hell is their last station."


Saqer claimed he did not condone violence. He blamed the pope for recent anti-Christian attacks in the Palestinian territories.



"We are deeply sorry for these acts that we condemn," he said. "But I am sorry that this little racist did not think of the consequences upon the Christians in the Arab world when he insulted our prophet. It is an open war – the Muslims against all the others."


I disagree. It is an open war--the freedom of religion, thought, speech and expression, against Islamofascism. How about this...we'll stop insulting their prophet when they stop insulting our intelligence...OK?

Religion and our future


What part religion will play in the future of this world, only God himself knows. But I think it's obvious to everyone that religion is playing a huge part in world events today. Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is running on Islamic prophetic fuel, seeing himself as the prophet who will issue in armagheddon, the return of the 12th Imam, the return of the worldwide Islamic caliphate, the return of the land Israel calls home to the Palestinians.

Persident George W. Bush is also religious, but accepting of others right to chose their own faith. "Bush Tells Group He Sees a 'Third Awakening'" from SlantRight has some interesting thoughts:

President Bush said yesterday that he senses a "Third Awakening" of religious devotion in the United States that has coincided with the nation's struggle with international terrorists, a war that he depicted as "a confrontation between good and evil."

Bush told a group of conservative journalists that he notices more open expressions of faith among people he meets during his travels, and he suggested that might signal a broader revival similar to other religious movements in history. Bush noted that some of Abraham Lincoln's strongest supporters were religious people "who saw life in terms of good and evil" and who believed that slavery was evil. Many of his own supporters, he said, see the current conflict in similar terms.

"A lot of people in America see this as a confrontation between good and evil, including me," Bush said during a 1 1/2 -hour Oval Office conversation on cultural changes and a battle with terrorists that he sees ... (more)

A new study by Baylor University shows that while American church attendance may be down, those who claim a faith in God and who worship/pray is much larger than expected: (Continue reading here)
