“Houston, we have a problem.”

Why is that a problem?

Yes. It’s a subversion of my culture.

I happen to like the American culture. Islam is an infestation. It’s a caricature religion. Bits and pieces borrowed from Judaism and Christianity. I really do believe the sign of the Cross is far superior to a black meteorite.

Well that's too bad

IF we don't allow religious freedom for people we don't agree with, then we won't be allowed to worship Jesus Christ as we please. Our country was founded on that principle.

You don't want a theocracy. They are evil. In places like Iran, you are treated horribly if you don't submit to Islam. Europe was a theocracy in the 1500s. Each country had it's own state church. The Catholics, Lutherans, and Reformed, killed and tortured my people for being too radical for baptizing believers instead of babies. And of course the churches even made war on each other.

Jesus is Lord. He needs no state government propping him up. I don't want a theocracy and if you think about it, neither do you.

Christianity borrowed heavily from Judiasm and Paganism

Protestants are not borrowing from paganism.

The Catholic denomination is laced with paganism. So let’s not impugn all Christianity.

Well of course

Christianity is the fulfillment of Judaism. Jesus is the Jewish Messiah and the first Christians were Jewish, until salvation was offered to the Gentiles.

The letter to the Hebrews in the New Testament of the Bible explains this and why Jesus was a better sacrifice than all the Temple sacrifice.

Christianity did no such thing

Good for them. Anything is better than the SBC

I was raised as a Baptist. And it’s highly recommended.
