Re: Beware of the Islamic Principle of Taquiya

I think you've confused the Sermon on the Mount with some other part of scripture.
Apparently you've never read it, so here's part of it:
quote:
Matthew 5:3 Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted. Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God. Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God. Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.
Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. That's what we've been talking about.

And yes your peaceful Muslim friends COULD suddenly stab you in the back if things reach a point where they feel it's time to obey Allah on that point.
I trust Muslim Canadians much farther than I trust Christian Americans.

What you were referring to before was Paul's list of the fruits of the Spirit, not the same thing.
The beatitudes and the gifts of the spirit are definitely related. My point is that the Muslims I know are exhibiting the gifts of the spirit more than many professing Christians.

... even a slight knowledge of what Islam teaches should give you pause.
I'm more interested in what Muslims practice than in what you preach about them.

We did not have all the social programs that we pay for today.
The post you're replying to said:

My grandparents were immigrants. They didn't impoverish Canada, they enriched it.
How is your reply in any way related to what I said?

Your grandparents pulled their own weight and did not rely on others to pull his weight.
My grandparents received help from the community just like immigrants do today. Community help happens to be more organized today, on a provincial and national level, but there isn't more of it than there was in the past.

As far as encouraging "white" births...I say we should ask ourselves globally if we should encourage any births---given the current global population.
I don't "encourage" births but I expect they're going to happen anyway. I do encourage immigration instead of "white" births.
