You know Prax, maybe they can. A high percentage of african americans in the US (25% of young men last count were convicted felons) engage in criminal activity and violence. A higher percentage than Muslims for sure. Maybe you should disenfranchise them
ALLfor that. Wait, that was tried wasn't it? It was not right either.
I am in a better position as to how christians and those of other faiths are treated in Muslim countries and I have shared openly what I know. They get rich here, raise their families here, hold services here, and live here better protected on the streets than they live or EVER lived there. They turn 60, have more money than they could possibly spend, and file for extensions to stay a couple more years. Their PENSIONS at 60 equal their salary and they have healthcare for life. Its not the money. It's the life.
Maybe the specific Muslims who do specific actions in specific countries should pay for their specific actions and the specific Muslims who are not guilty of anything at all should be left alone. You know, individuals COULD be held accountable for their individual actions. When all individuals in a group are classified under one umbrella, grouped into a class, and judged as a group it crosses a line.
There is a legal right to do anything but actions that put others in danger. Even our General in Afghanistan who is trying to work with the Afghan (Muslims also) and who has Afghan (Muslims) working with him spoke against this action as fueling violence in his area of responsibility. You think he did that because he has a love for Islam? No - it is wrong to engage in deliberate action to incite violence and hatred and if this results in spilled blood you can bet and believe that this "free speech" right will have one more chip removed from it because a 50-person church could not figure out a way to use their free speech rights responsibly.

As for this church, I support their legal right to do so. I don't support their decision to do so. I think it's stupid and doesn't do anything for anyone other than make a few red necks happy
