re: #569 Dr Lizardo

Remember Pammy’s “Halal Jihad Turkeys”…..I read that, and immediately glommed onto the fact that it was nothing more than the Birchers “Kosher Tax” nonsense operating under a new label. My favorite is their whole taqiyya nonsense.

If these fools were serious, why don’t try studying under a Sheikh or something? When I wanted to learn more about Islam after 9/11, I got my hands on the Qur’an. When I wanted further clarification, I spent six weeks studying under Sheikh Muhammad Nazim Al-Qubrusi in Lefke. Then I consulted fiqh experts.

I’m still working my way through various commentaries on the Qur’an. Right now, I’m on the Risale-i-nur of Bediuzzaman.

Because they’re not serious about anything other than hatred of The Other. They have no desire to learn about what Islam actually is, or what it means to people that follow it. All they know, and all they care to know, is that it’s a non-Christian religion for brown people and thus Evil. Again, the parallels are striking.
