Speak Up

Muslims who kill innocent people in the name of their faith are Bad.

There I said it.

And so did Mark Steyn in his excellent article today, Silence = Acceptance.

Why all the mealy-mouthness about saying that a person who so hates another person they are willing to kill them is bad? Why no rush to judgement?

Because many Muslim leaders have insisted that to do so is racist.

That is turning the world upside down.

Because as far as I am concerned killing an innocent is evil, whether you do it for God or not.

In fact, it is worse when you do it for God because I'm fairly certain on this that God does not want his hard work blown up because you are too stupid to figure out what your "peaceful" religion is supposed to mean.

For the record, my daughter is the only Christian in an all Muslim Girl Scout troop which meets in a mosque's community center. So far politics has not come up amongst the mothers (which is as it should be) but I am not afraid to say that killing innocents is wrong.

And let us be clear on this, everyone on a plane, bus, train, subway car; everyone in the market, the mosque, the church or temple; everyone just simply going about their lives who is killed by some suicide-bomber jihadist is innocent.

It is the jihadist who is racist and wrong and hellbound.
