Let me say right up front that I have absolutely nothing against Islam or Muslims in general. I certainly do not agree with the more conservative Muslim views on women, though. Not only does this article focus on conservative Muslims, Swimmers Are Told To Wear Burkinis, but the impact they have on non-Muslim [...]

As it turns out, the domestic terrorist, Abdulhakim Muhammad, who targeted Army soldiers outside of a recruiting station in Little Rock, Arkansas may not be acting independently after all. This is disturbing, to say the least. Here’s the latest on what has been discovered about him, some more details about Private Long, and [...]

(Bumped up from earlier this evening.)
In this age of religious extremism and terrorists abusing religious ideology, a pacifistic religion like Buddhism must resonate well with everyone. Last week, coinciding with the full moon (aka Buddha Poornima), India, Sri Lanka, and many Southeast Asian countries celebrated the birth anniversary of the founder of the religion, Siddhartha [...]

“Church Goers Like Torture More!”
“The more often Americans go to church, the more likely they are to support the torture of suspected terrorists.”
“Support for terror suspect torture differs among the faithful.”

On CNN today we see: Survey: Support for terror suspect torture differs among the faithful.
I suspect there may be some pushing involved in that Pew poll, as there may be a coordinated push to break down the cohesiveness of what the democrat party believes is the foundation of the republican party, White [...]

The more they stay the same. Sad to say, but true, no matter what the Obama PR machine says about the whole Hope-y, Change-y Unicorn Magical Mystery Tour, change seems to take a mighty long time. Oh, sure, things started out well while reading the Sunday paper. I was reading the latest [...]

For the last 8 years, science has been distorted and minimized by the radical Religious Right that vowed, among other things, to push Darwin off the plank and instill “intelligent design” (a euphemism for “creationism”) in its stead. Whereas we are all free to believe whatever we wish, forcing students to learn about creationism in [...]

Who is Joshua DuBois, you ask (pictured here with Obama)? Well, he is the 26 yr old Obama tagged to be the Director of Obama’s new Faith Based Office. Yes, this 26 yr old Pentecostal pastor, without any formal seminary training, who, from his “resume” has done little more than go to school, [...]

I’ve got some astonishing news about President Obama’s “faith groups,” the 15 meetings that Obama and staff have held so far with these faith groups, and the kinds of faith leaders he’s inviting, including the notorious Rev. James Meeks. What is even more astonishing is how little press this is getting - 15 [...]

To expect Obama to speak out against his minion’s boorish, often aggressive behavior? That’s my response to the following article, The Ugly Side of the Inauguration: Obamamania’s Mean Streak (and MAJOR H/T to American Girl in Italy for this link). The author, Mr. Frederick, had this to say:
Ironic that on Inauguration Day, when [...]

Take in and digest each of these, will you? And then do tell us how you react to each? Below the fold, you’re going to learn that Robert Redford hates poor people and is a racist, and that one CNN reporter felt compelled to slam “Joe the Plumber” with a stern lecture.

Speaking for myself only…
“Hamas’ charter calls for the destruction of the State of Israel and its replacement with a Palestinian Islamic state in the area that is now Israel, the West Bank, and the Gaza Strip.”
Israel is right to attack Hamas in Gaza. The Palestinians are wrong to have elected Hamas as their leaders. Like [...]

YouTube and Google have been the most beautiful inventions of the last few years. It is hard to count how many times I have found artists of classical music from my childhood on YouTube — their records you can’t find in any store here or in India but passionate enthusiasts have put them on YouTube [...]

I have much to say against organized religion, especially when it breeds people like Rick Warren (of Saddleback Church) or other such mega-church religious people here in the US who teach homophobia, or Imams in madrasas or elsewhere inciting violence in young people in the name of religion, or some Hindu fundamentalists wearing orange robes [...]

Barack Obama has a coal problem. Responding to yesterday’s revelation that Barack Obama intends to bankrupt all plants that operate on energy generated from coal, Chris Hamilton, the Senior Vice President of the West Virginia Coal Association, called Obama’s comments in San Francisco “unbelievable.” I quote the West Virginia Record:
The [...]

How else does one explain the following?
Obama told MTV he believes marriage is “between a man and a woman” and that he is “not in favor of gay marriage.”
At the same time, Obama reiterated his opposition to Proposition 8, the California ballot measure which would eliminate a right to same-sex marriage that the state’s [...]

The National Republican Trust PAC will air the following advertisement in Ohio, Pennsylvania and Florida:
According to the Politico, the National Republican Trust PAC will spend $2.5 million in order to air this advertisement in important media markets in the three swing states.
Many here at No Quarter desired an advertisement on Reverend Wright, and [...]

Obama never had the support of the LGBT community. Indeed, 63% of LGBT Democrats supported Hillary Clinton during the California primary, while a paltry 29% cast their votes for Barack Obama. I imagine LGBT support for Clinton was equally strong in other states, for according to a poll conducted last November, this constituency [...]

Not long ago, I was able to share The Good News with you on how the Obamessiah is reaching out to the Faithful! Remember this?
How about this?
Oh, and we cannot forget this one - I know it was a hit with the Catholics in the crowd (right Divine?):
O, ye people of faith - wait [...]
