and replace it with a watered-down version of Islam and a liberal, multi-cultural,
pluralistic, secular democracy.


It appears "radical" [ie, overly religious] Muslims are the last resistance.

But appearances may be deceiving.

Should we give islam the same freedoms that any religion in America enjoys? It would certainly appear to be a political system first, and a religion second.
Yes, it is a religion.

Countries are run by the religion, yes, but it would be no difference than the Papal States being run by the Pope/Vatican in the Medival Times.

Yes, we cannot show Americans are against a religion, it would show weakness in us, and the divide IS showing weakness. The Colonies, the basis of America was founded on Freedom of Religion (although they intended EVERYONE to have a religion, there would be a choice in which they chose)

Islam is a religion, even though it looks like a political system, it has rules, the Bible has rules.

Definitely a political system. A political system - a government with a god.

Can't wait for that first gay or lesbian imam and the first suit against any muslim for not hiring them. Also don't forget that public financed artwork of anything involving their so-called tolerant religion.

The antichrist will come as a devout and pious person. It would be too obvious to come as an "anti-christ". Just the sort of person to lead a Cristian monarchy.

I don't believe what i just wrote!

Because Godless secular states do not last long.

Well you're wrong. The USA is a Judeo-Christian influenced nation and it will always be that because without that, the USA will collapse.

And this is what we will do to Muslims in the end:
