Can Muslims be good Americans?

CAN MUSLIMS BE GOOD AMERICANS?

This is very interesting and we all need to read it from start to Finish......... and send it on to anyone who will read it

Maybe this is why our American Muslims are so quiet and not speaking out

about any atrocities.....

Can a good Muslim be a good American?

This question was forwarded to a friend who worked in Saudi Arabia for 20

years.

The following is his reply:

Theologically - no. . . . Because his allegiance is to Allah, The moon God

of Arabia .

Religiously - no. . . . Because no other religion is accepted by His Allah

except Islam (Quran, 2:256) (Koran)

Scripturally - no. . . Because his allegiance is to the five Pillars of

Islam and the Quran.

Geographically - no . . . Because his allegiance is to Mecca , to which he

turns in prayer five times a day.

Socially - no. . . Because his allegiance to Islam forbids him To make

friends with Christians or Jews.

Politically - no. . . Because he must submit to the mullahs (spiritual

leaders), who teach annihilation of Israel and destruction of America , the

great Satan.

Domestically - no. . . Because he is instructed to marry four Women and

beat and scourge his wife when she disobeys him (Quran 4:34 )

Intellectually - no. . . Because he cannot accept the American

Constitution since it is based on Biblical principles and he believes the

Bible to be corrupt.

Philosophically - no. . . . Because Islam, Muhammad, and the Quran does not allow freedom of religion and expression. Democracy and Islam cannot co-exist. Every Muslim government is either dictatorial or autocratic.

Spiritually - no. . . . Because when we declare "one nation under God," the

Christian's God is loving and kind, while Allah is NEVER referred to as

heavenly father, nor is he ever called love in The Quran's 99 excellent

names. - - - Therefore after much study and deliberation.... Perhaps we

should be very suspicious of ALL MUSLIMS in this country. - - - They

obviously cannot be both "good" Muslims and good Americans.

* * * Call it what you wish..it's still the truth.

* * * You had better believe it.

+ + + The more who understand this, the better it will be for our country

and our future. The religious war is bigger than we know or understand. . .

And Barack Hussein Obama, a Muslim, wants to be our President? You have GOT to be kidding! Wake up America !

Obama even says if he wins the election, he will be sworn in on the Quran---not a Bible!

Update:

It's amazing the range of opinion on this.

    Once again someone spouts hate and lies. You said:

    "And Barack Hussein Obama, a Muslim, wants to be our President? You have GOT to be kidding! Wake up America !

    Obama even says if he wins the election, he will be sworn in on the Quran---not a Bible!"

    Obama is not Muslim. You are simply wrong. He has not expressed that he intends o be sworn in on the Quran, Again, another lie from you.

    Thank you for your rant. I suppose that Kareem Abdul Jabaar is considered by you to be a threat or dangerous. I suppose Muhammid Ali is also considered by you to be unAmerican.

    Where I live there is an Islamic center down the street from us. They do their thing and don't bother anyone. Most of them are here because they don't like what is going on over there. They run restaurants, real estate companies, work in banks, auto dealers and any other occupation just like you and me. We even have them on city government. The pose no threat to us or our way of life.

    Obama is NOT a Muslim. You show your ignorance and stupidity by claiming he is. Check out his website. Listen to what he says.

    Scare tactics of fear mongers and hate mongers look silly because only a few fraidy cats still fall for it.

    Yeah, Muslims can and do make excellent Americans. Your suggestion that they can't because they follow Islam has no merit. Nowhere in the Koran does it say "Thou shalt not be American". You can't look at Islam and decide all its followers are identical. Just look at Christians. Not all of them follow all of the rules all the time. Muslims are much the same, especially those living in America. You assume that all Muslims are the extremist uber religious type; I doubt you've ever met one in your life.

    So basically what your saying is we should be very suspicious of all Muslims? Man, like we don't have enough to worry about!

    Here I was thinking the Muslims here in the USA were a peace loving people. Oh well, Google here I come again!!

    Please show me where it says Barack Obama is a Muslim. Also, I would like for you to quote source from where he said he would be sworn in with a Quran.

    I really feel sorry for you, all you do is continue to divide this country because you want to single out people who are different. You sir, are a very sad individual. May God forgive you.

    Certainly--and there are millions of good Americans who happen to be Muslims.

    But the people who smear fellow citizens simply because they happen to foolw a different religionn CANNOT be--and are not--good Americans. They are simply religious bigots who are a disgrace to everything America stands for.

    You are such a lying sack of cr*p. Obama is a Christian and will swear by the Bible.

    Despite that, the start of the post was kind of interesting. I wish more Muslims who are patriotic Americans would go to mosques and monitor what they are saying so they can prevent terrorist attacks. That's the best way they could guarantee a good life for their kids.

    Show me where in the Constitution there's a religious qualification for citizenship. Back to Faux News with you. Down with Dictator Dumbya!!!

    I live in a section of the country that has a lot of Muslims and Hindus and am always struck by the way they blatantly refuse to participate in our culture right down to the way they choose to do business only within their own communities thus, putting money back into their own pockets almost exclusively.
