Worshipping on altar of political correctness – CapeGazette.com

In a letter dated April 21, Arthur E. Sowers was critical of my defense of state senators Lawson and Bonini for recently walking out of the room when an opening prayer was offered by two Muslims. In his letter, Mr. Sowers charged that my defense was a "spurious cop-out."

If my defense is the "spurious cop-out" that Mr. Sowers has charged, then it should be a simple thing for him to point out my errors in either facts or logic. This would be a welcome change from the contents of his letter, which consisted only of his own opinions, and attempts to deflect the issue from Islam to Christianity. I challenge Mr. Sowers to point to the factual and logical errors of my argument. For his convenience, and for the reader's as well, I include my defense of senators Lawson and Bonini below.

Bonini and Lawson not only had the right to walk out when a Muslim prayer was being offered, if they knew the teachings of Islam, they actually had a moral obligation to do so. The real shame is that more lawmakers did not join them.

At its core Islam is, and always has been, a religion of conquest and violence. Devoted Muslims have created a history of evil that stretches out for over a thousand years, as they continually seek to convert, conquer or kill all unbelievers. Just this past Palm Sunday, Egyptian Christians were murdered when they gathered for worship.

Are there some good people who profess to be Muslims? Yes, there are many people who embrace Islam in a casual way, just as there are many people claiming to be Christians, who do not actually follow the teachings of Jesus Christ. However, (and here is the problem) there are also many Muslims who devote themselves to the barbaric teachings of their religion.

Regardless what deluded leftists, who worship at the altar of political correctness, would have you believe, anyone who wants to know the truth about Islam can easily find it. A good place to start is with the website: http://www.thereligionofpeace.com.
