The Great War of Religions Freedom vs Islam, State Department on Islam’s side! UPDATED!

Pierre Legrand’s Pink Flamingo Bar

UPDATED: The Islamic Warriors know the score

UPDATED MORE BELOW

If you accept the proposition that this is a religious war and you should. And you understand that the West’s religion, freedom  , is the most overwhelming religion to come forth since the beginning of time. Then you are probably as shocked and angry as I am about the State Department condemning the publishing of those caricatures of Mohammed.

Naturally we get angry when maniacs run aircraft into Buildings 4. Naturally when we see maniacs in other countries persecute women  terribly we feel angry. When maniacs in other countries throw bombs into subways and busses naturally we feel anger at the barbarity of those thugs. In all those cases lives are lost but hope remains, since we are alive and can fight back!

But when we start to see our own governments starting to roll back our freedom, our very religion, in the face of such barbarians we should feel fear. Terrible overwhelming fear that our governments, no matter our feelings and desire to fight, will leave the fight, surrender the field and give up our most cherished religion, Freedom, blessed freedom a gift that we all take so much for granted. Government Bureaucrats are not by nature brave individuals. They are like mice who run at the slightest hint of disaster. We must not have mice running our fight against the head choppers.

As I have said before President Bush carried the water a certain distance down the field, he is tired. He never once saw the enemy that existed only the enemy he wished to see, Radical Islam. As if it can be separated from Islam. Again I ask was Mohammed an Islamicist  ? Would President Bush define Mohammed as a radical?

UPDATED! One of the biggest scandals of this putrid mess is the performance of our media. The supposed guardians of freedom of speech have all apparently agreed not to display any of the images in question. William Buckley comments on that decision right here.   Noticed that even the National Review has not shown any of the images but then again I remember how sensitive they are to Muslim sensitivities 0. And so it goes as the West surrenders to the thugs our most precious gift, our freedom.

  1. Yes I understand your point and can also see that there is a weakness in describing Freedom as the West’s religion. Thanks for pointing it out to me.

    Can you take a look at this American Digest article that I used to arrive at my point of view to see if I describe it poorly?

  2. I’ll attack this issue from another angle. By saying freedom is a religion, you are severing the concept from only frame of reference by which the truth of an idea can be verified, namely objective reality. That is, you move it out of the realm of rational inquiry. It simply becomes an issue about your article of faith versus their article of faith which boils down to moral subjectivism. What the hell good is that?!

  3. Methinks that your post reflects more on your hatred of religion than it does on the rightness or wrongness of the idea I expressed. If that is the case we must merely agree to disagree. My faith is strong though I try not to inflict it on anyone.

    Thanks for the comments

  4. “If you accept the proposition that this is a religious war and you should.”

    No I should not. This is a war between civilisation and superstitious barbarism; between freedom and totalitarianism.

    “And you understand that the West’s religion, freedom, is the most[...]”

    ??? Just because we value freedom religiously doesn’t make it a religion. In fact, freedom is no more a religion than food and water. We can lose the superstition, get rational, and live good prosperous and happy lives given the freedom to do so. Lose our freedom and we lose our ability to act for our own good. We become the means towards the realization of some thug’s goal, whether the thug is real or imagined. Also, history tells us people who lack political freedom generally live a short, fearful and miserable existence, whereas people with freedom generally live longer, happier, and more properous lives. Freedom is a necessary condition of human wellbeing like water is to a fish, and I see nothing religious in that at all.

    I agree with everything else you’ve written here…. about getting angry
    at the persecution of women (or anyone else who as committed no rights violation). Seething rage would be closer to the truth in my case. I also feel the same way about our politicans and businessmen when they cravenly surrender to the demands of numberous little would be despots the world over. Just hate it and them.

    George W. Bush was my all-time favourite president during his first term. In his second term, I think of him as a lilly-livered pragmatist trying hard to be the diplomat in a clear cut case of good vs evil. He’s spent. We need someone who is honest enough to be straight-foward about the threats civilization faces today; a principled thinker and an articulate spokesman of what needs to be done to
    eliminate these threats.
