Truth hurts

If you are a Muslim
"The nation's leading Islamic civil rights group today issued a call for San Francisco-based KSFO 560 AM to reprimand two local talk show hosts -- and has asked the station's listeners to contact advertisers -- following a segment that it says "mocked Islam, misstated Muslim beliefs and cast suspicion on political participation by American Muslims."

The Council on American-Islamic Relations -- known as CAIR -- sent out the letter Thursday after The Chronicle Spin Cycle Political blog this week reported on a morning comedy segment by KSFO 560-AM hosts Brian Sussman and his radio sidekick "Officer Vic."

The pair, during the Monday program, did a comedic segment about Islam and its tenets, and joked that "Islamic finance is about living within your means and helping the needy -- unless they're Jews," the blog reported. Additionally, they observed that "the great honorable qualities of that good old time religion: honor killings, female circumcision, not allowing women to drive ... Jews are monkeys, pigs.''

Ibrahim Hooper, spokesman for CAIR, told The Chronicle the Washington D.C.-based advocacy organization is asking American Muslims and consumers to contact KSFO officials and advertisers to express their concerns about what he called the "smears" on the Muslim religion...

Muslims really don't like it when the truth gets out in such a blunt way! They don't like free speech, either.

What was stated happens to be the truth so what's their issue? Idiotic to demand an apology over what your own "Holy" book says.

So instead of refuting the claims they just call for a boycott?

I would invite a Muslim "leader" on the radio to explain how I was wrong. I would also have a copy of the Qur’-an handy to show him where the verses I mentioned are.

But the main reason they lob off heads is they cannot refute with facts. Their “religion” is one of death and hate.

Christianity is not without it’s crusades or salem witch hunts but there are no places one can point to in the bible where it says to kill anyone who will not convert or to kill a women who “insults your honor.”

Jesus said repeatedly to “love others as I have loved you” he showed mercy and love. Or the example I use against Muslims:

“Jesus sacrifices his life on the cross, in the single greatest act of love the world has ever seen!”

Show me ANYTHING in your religion that can compare to that!

Islam is a religion where god requires you to send your son to die for him, Christianity is a religion where God sent his son to die for you!

Always the first response to an "unfavorable" quote from the Koran OR the Bible is that it's "taken out of context", which is another way of putting it all beyond criticism, as you can argue forever over the "context"!
