Angry Pure evil

The following is a website for a fundamentalist Islamic group based in the UK:

<a href="http://www.almuhajiroun.com/" target="_blank">Al-Muhajiroun</a>

If you read through their stuff, these guys glorify mass murder, hatred, terrorism, admire the Taliban, want genocidal extermination of Jews, xenophobia, and advocate a "Khilafah" (a megalomaniacal goal of conquering the world by force and subjugating it to a totalitarian Islamic theocracy). They make Christian Reconstructionists look like choir boys.

To those here who believe there is no "pure evil" and there's only "shades of gray", these guys might just change your mind.

Evil? Try more like children who don't realize that when they play with fire, they will get burned.

It's amazing how the human mind can be programmed to hate, but with delusions of goodness to their gods.

Is there no way to educate these people?
Or re-program them?

Just because we believe in shades of grey doesn't mean we don't believe in very dark shades of grey.

Or re-program them?

There are some very effective techniques used to reprogram these sorts of people to lie very still and silently for extended periods of time.

For more information, contact the US Marines.

BULLSHIT.

I strongly believe in what our constitution stands for: Freedom of religion (or freedom from religion if you wish). However, my tolerance is severely strained by the pure vile hatred being directed at us (read U.S.) by followers of Islam. What you see today is the worst example of the warping of religion to manipulate people for political goals (such as world domination). I am afraid that the 9/11 episode is just the beginning of some hard times. I think they (terrorist muslims, etc) do not have a clue as to what the American people are about or what we are capable of doing. If they want war, war it shall be, not because we want it, but because we will have to fight to preserve the very freedoms we cherish.

Well, excuse me. Maybe you should rephrase that to read "Fanaticism = Peace" before you go shooting your mouth off slagging off the whole of Eastern society.
You might as well say "Christianity = Peace - The Crusades - BULLSHIT".
Which personally I believe is true, but that's besides the point .

Unhappy

Careful. Someone might come up with a picture of Tim McVeigh's handiwork in Oklahoma City, with the legend "Atheism = Law-abiding. BULLSHIT"

The correct formula, IMHO, is "Fanaticism = Danger"

Take human beings

Add element x*

Shake
Stir
Simmer
Spice with religious fervour and a side of dogmatic platitudes

Serves global war for 2-6 billion.

*x = weapons of destructiveness (angry gestures, strong words, pointy stick, sharpened hunk of metal, black powder, C4, firearms, C130 gunships, long range ballistic missiles, air-fuel bombs, multiple entry high yield thermonuclear warheads)

I was being facetious. Or were you talking to Nightshade?
Here's another true one:
"Intolerance = Danger"
or
"Inequality = Danger"
Just look at the West Bank, or Northern Ireland.
