    Cult to Annihilate Intelligence and Respect has condemned Trump for saying he would possibly close the extremists Muslim mosques. You know, the ones that have nothing to do with a religion and instead if a disguised building for planning attacks. Which i agree with if there is enough proof, and not just for Muslim extremists either. Of course this is CAIR.

    Now the question is, on Muslim issues, is Trump as invincible as Carson...

    Ahhaha isn't it just so hilarious to see liberals defending religion?

    And the only time you'll ever see them doing it is then its not even religion at all but radical extremist terrorist clubs disguised as Mosques.

    Liberalism = hypocritical.
    Liberalism = the support of Islamic terror.

    Except for you know all the cases groups like the liberal ACLU have taken where they have defended Christians, but feel free to continue lying.

    It's a wonder they didn't demand that Obama draw and quarter Trump.

    With the exception of hating Christians, can anyone name me any liberal virtue or value that they share with Muslims? Muslims represent everything liberals hate yet libs defend them like it wasn't true.

    Cult to Annihilate Intelligence and Respect. Ha, good one.

    We can't shut down mosques based on speech alone, but we can definitely hold those making the speeches accountable, if their words result in actions.

    I'm not so sure Islam is a religious construct, it's more a political system one based on cast, feudalism and mysagonistic warrior culture.

    Jung had a good handle on islam:

    “We do not know whether Hitler is going to found a new Islam. He is already on the way; he is like Muhammad. The emotion in Germany is Islamic; warlike and Islamic. They are all drunk with wild god. That can be the historic future”.Collected Works Vol. 18: The Symbolic Life, Princeton UP, S. 281.

    Islam is more than a religion it seeks to control man in the political and legal temporal realm demanding subservience in earthy mundane human existence.

    “Of course, it is not a spiritual religion in the sense in which we ordinarily use the term. But remember that in the early days of Christianity it was the church which made the claim to total power, both spiritual and temporal! Today the church no longer makes this claim, but the claim has been taken by the totalitarian states which demand not only temporal but spiritual power”.

    If one looks to his quotes closely we find, that he just says there are similar concepts between totalitarian religions and totalitarian systems. Jung is speaking about Islam in a sense that was not only religious but also political. He then compares in the context of political figures. Jung was knowledgeable in Islamic theology and owned and read the Quran. He was familiar with the Hadiths as well. One cannot avoid having the impression that Jung had good knowledge of Sufi Islamic culture as a result of his compassionate study of Arabic alchemy and his apparent reasonable knowledge of the Quran and the Khidr figure, who plays a great role in Sufism Islam. Jung speaks here about religion not only demanding spiritual obedience but temporal as well and the beliefs not only cover the spiritual aspects of the human condition but also the mundane as well.

    I agree with Jung.

    Cheers

    Donald Trump did not define "extreme."

    Religious freedom doesn't mean people should have the freedom to plot terrorism just because they think that Allah told them to slay the infidels.

    And as far as the other posters' statement about Christian churches planning to murder abortion doctors - sure I'd shut them down too if they exist.

    I'm of the opinion that "religious freedom" has gone too far and I'd be in favor of cutting back on it entirely. If "religious freedom" means Muslim women have a right to wear veils on driver's licenses, or that Christian faith healers have a right to deny their child medical treatment - then we interpreted it wrong.

    Well, there's also the little provision in the Constitution making it illegal to plot the violent overthrow of the government.
