I thought I'd seen it all, now a Islamic terrorist leads prayer in our Senate
-
Substitute "priest" with imam and woody is apoplectic with rage over this
-
..... no answer then?
Instead of telling me what I think and what I 'would' say, how about we address a very reasonable question. Have any other religions lead prayers in Congress?
If you read my post, I already stated that I would prefer no religion to have any influence in congress, including opening prayers. If this is some unprecedented act in Congress, then yes, some outrage may be warranted. If it is something that has happened many times before (even though I disagree with doing it at all) then there really is no room for outrage.
Not to mention the whole "all mulsims are terrorists" angle and then "they've claimed the USA for Islam! Thanks Obama!" shit gets old.
Edit: http://chaplain.house.gov/archive/index.html (hit the search button) .... shocker, right?
So, this is something that happens all the time, the just happened to let a Mulsim give the prayer that day. Oh my god no! But yes, I'd prefer this didn't take place at all, for any religion.

I particularly like: No mosque in the world would even even consider Christians to do the same.
Not true. Many instances of it happening, like this

From the left wing news huffingtonpost. Hardly reliable.

Yep, they faked the video, and the link to the local newspaper is a fraud as well.

There are a bunch of links to different sources in the article, pick your favourite.

Cysko you are smarter than to accept an article from Top Right News at face value. The language used in it is both manipulative and deceptive. I would point out specifics but people here either likely noticed it and saw it for what it is (Woody, Chris) or don't notice it and don't care.
And here is the link I believe Chris is looking for.

I saw it was being planned last week and thought it would end up here.

Hey I personally don't care whether a priest, Imam, or David Koresh leads prayer hour or where. I don't hate muslims or Christians. But if you have this whole separation of church and state business nobody should be praying in congress. They don't need any distractions because they're already not getting anything done

Ah, okay, I misunderstood what you meant. Agreed, we need real separation of church and state.

On the topic of church and state, this came across my facebook today:
Dominos pizza founder bought the land to set up a town that's run by strict catholic laws. No contraception, no pill, no porn are the headlines...
-
Did he hire any paramilitary troops to abduct people and force them to live in his town?
If not I don't care. Also Domino's Pizza is a lot better than it used to be.

No of course not. I just thought it was interesting - I'm not sure where the church & state line comes in to it, and whether it affects private land. For example, canary wharf is private land, but we still have to abide by the law of the land.

Yeah but you can also have different age of consent, firearms and alcohol sales limitations, speed limits etc from community to community or state to state.
In New Jersey and Oregon it is illegal to pump your own gas.

The two fast foods I do eat: Chick-fil-a and Dominos.
