Here is a funny idea, let Lowes worry about their advertising and maybe do your elected job, last I knew that national debt was not getting any smaller. You politicians need to worry about the big problem instead of making little ones.
@RepChrisMurphy: In fact, Arabic-speaking Christians of Arab descent, especially ones who live in the Middle East, also refer to God as 'Allah'. So, my point is that even though we may have different names for God, like 'Allah', 'Jehovah', or 'Yahweh', etc., we as Muslims, Christians, and Jews do believe in the same One God.
@RepChrisMurphy: Congressman Murphy, even though I wholeheartedly agree with pretty much everything you said in front of Congress and your overall message here, you did make one mistake in your speech and that was your assertion that Muslims "worship a 'different' God". However, the fact of the matter is that Jews, Muslims, and most Christians worship the same One God. 'Allah' is just simply an Arabic word that translates to "The God" in English, meaning that there is only One God.
"Lowes has every right to choose who to advertise with and who to not"
true. but that doesn't mean that, in this case, it is a bigoted decision. plus it's not like they chose not to in the first place, they fell under the pressure of a minority holding extremist views and TOOK BACK their ads. because the show portrayed people of Islamic faith in a good light. now Lowes gets its own bad light, and rightly so. cheers to Murphy, one of few in his position to speak for what's right.
@informingchristians Are you saying Muslims are evil by this statement, "And no, God will not bless this. The bible has something to say about those who call evil, good and good, evil." Finally, whatever happend to "love thy neighbor as you love thyself."
@informingchristians But last I checked, Jesus (pbuh) didn't come on this earth to spread hate, so why are you doing it in the name of him? Since when was America only the land of Christians, would you care to tell me what freedom of expression, religion, and speech is then? If you really want to get to the specifics, America is the land of Native Americans before us all, am I correct?
@informingchristians I'm actually in the process of finishing the Bible and as a Muslim I have uttermost respect for Christians and Jews, they are "people of the book". As a Muslim I must value the legitimacy of their prophethood as I do Prophet Muhammad (pbuh).
@mammayoridan.Thanks for the fox news alert.When did i say the taliban do not do these things?. Believe me the law in America keeps these fanatics in florida from not doing what the Taliban are doing otherwise they would do the same to woman as well. I am talking about mentality not actions.You can go on with your list of hateful actions but the mentality is still the same on both sides borders or none.Its only the law which ties down these florida fanatics not borders.
Americans are promoting democracy and freedom in muslim countries.Have already fought two long wars promoting this, so are American companies going to listen to these handful of fanatics in florida and destroy everything they have gained there and disrespect thousands of American troops who have died for this cause of freedom and eliminating radicalism?.What the difference between taliban style fanatical interpretation of Islam and the hateful fanatics in Florida? Only borders.
@Goldkhan0 The Taliban stone women for adultery? Eh the Taliban burn down girls' schools. Eh the Taliban don't allow women to become doctors and then don't allow women see male doctors when the are ill? Eh the Taliban insist on women covering themselves from head to toe with a rag? Eh the Taliban blow up ancient structures? I could go on, but you get the gist. There are a couple of differences - life and death differences! Thank God for the borders!!! - Rene
Racism topic on the floor of congress is one thing, but religious preference condemnation have NO PLACE on the floor of congress concerning a PRIVATE COMPANY'S choices. In the USA we have the right to THINK anything we want. Why do you writers feel it is right to impose YOUR beliefs on anyone purchasing something with their own money? This congressman needs to focus on what he is being paid for, I suggest fixing the BUDGET. He needs to not bully FREEDOM OF RELIGIOUS CHOICE!
Lowes is owned by Lowes, and has every right in the USA to do what they want, advertise where they want, it is their dollar! I would"t allow my company to advertise in Law abiding peaceful Satan worshipers show. I know 2 law abiding peaceful Satan worshipers so do NOT even begin to laugh.But if I owned a company no one would tell me who and where to pay for advertising Congressman or not.Should be MY CHOICE and not my government to butt in on my personal wishes.Congressman Murphy is out of line.
@Raisedonwelfare Clearly, you haven't read the Constitution. Maybe being "raised on welfare" resulted in your unfortunate lack of education. Mister Murphy is correct.
@mrdithers66 - you're so indoctrinated you're BEYOND stupid. You never read the Constitution. You're too indoctrinated to read it. You were weened on Textbooks and never read an original document in your entire life. Don't come here and try to posture knowledge you don't have. You're a know-nothing, brain-dead, Useful Idiot who is functionally illiterate.
Murphy is dead wrong, but you're too indoctrinated to know why. You're BEYOND stupid.
They is a fine balance which is maintained by some great people who run this country and one of them is Chris Murphy. I am proud to be resident of 5th district of CT. Hats off to Chris Murphy in these days to stand for Muslim communities in US. You can only ask a Muslim how he feels these days, Chris Murphy gives us hope.
Excellent job congressman! Correction to one thing, Muslims don't worship a different God, Muslims worship the same God Christions and Jews worship, the one God that created this universe, the God that created Mary, Mariam, Jesus (Issa), Moses (Musa), Ibraham, Mohammad and all the prophets you read about in the Bible.
Lowes has a right to pay for advertising anywhere it wants. This is America. Why no outrage when advertisers pulled for FOX news political opinions? Double standards here... and NO congress has no business telling BUSINESS where they spend THEIR money...when does this stop?
Good guy, Lowe's is stupid for this. There's 1.5 billion Muslims in the world idiot, lol, when are you going to realize you're only looking at the black sheep.
@InformingChristians You're right, it's not Lowe's job to promote Islam, and they didn't HAVE to advertise during the show, it's THEIR right indeed. But THEY chose to advertise during the show, to plenty of people who shop at their stores. They also chose to listen to a small group of bigots in Florida who might as well have the same beliefs of the KKK in terms of the hate they have towards a certain group of people. If you still don't see the wrong in this, I don't know what to say.
To MR. STFU. That's all you got ??? You keep listening to your masters, they will tell you what to think and when to think it... Three cheers for Lowe's!
Chris Murphy,you're in no position to be talking about "sound mind". You don't know the first thing about muslims, other than what you've learned from the mainstream medis. I think you will live to see the day you have to eat your words. What a fool you are...
Lowe's simply realized that it is not a good idea to get involved in the religious/political agenda of the show's theme. And not sponsoring shows that have a religious/political agenda, actually promotes an atmosphere of inclusion and tolerance of all people into their stores.
So much for separation of church and state. -- This is so wrong on so many levels.
1) The use of the floor of Congress to promote a religion
2) The use of the floor of Congress to bully an American company for not supporting a religion
3) The use of the floor of Congress to bully millions of American Christians whose own faith-belief is totally against the religion that is being promoted on the floor of Congress.
Great speech by Chris Murphy. Islam is a religion of peace and it's unfortunate that people believe the actions of extremists to represent the true religion. One correction though... Muslims believe in the same God as Jews and Christians, Allah is just the Arabic translation of God
@PolishPunk04 -- Considering the latest version of the Catholic's ever-changing Catechism, defends Islam, this does not shock me.
Informed true born again Christians, biblical Christians who have been around since Jesus began His church on the TRUTH of who HE is, would never applaud Chris Murphy's bullying of an American company and millions of American Christians.
great points made - esp about giving ammo to anti-western extremists. I'm a Christian who has Muslim friends. I recognize that they may call the One I call 'God' by a different name, but their faith has the same roots as mine. I respect those who follow other paths *because* I am Christian, not despite that fact. My Holy Book teaches me that we ALL are given gifts to share with the Body... Humanity, not some exclusivist idol we fashion out of our bigotry and blasphemously call 'Jesus'.
@PeachMcD -- Woe unto those who call good, evil and evil, good.
Informed true born again Christians, biblical Christians who have been around since Jesus began His church on the TRUTH of who HE is, would never applaud Chris Murphy's bullying of an American company and millions of American Christians.
We muslims aren't worshiping "a different God".there is only One Creator, Unseen but His Signs are everywhere for all to see,The God of Adam, Abraham, Moses, Jesus and Muhammad [May Peace Be Upon All of Them], this is Whom we muslims worship. Open a christian arab bible and see what is the name given to "GOD"...ALLAH in the arabic language...meaning AL = The, LAH= god...Makes is specific and definite Whom we are addressing, The One and Only Who has the right to be worshiped and none other!
@affane78 -- Jesus is God. -- And from what I have seen, Muslims do not believe this, nor do the real devout ones, refer to their god, "Allah," as "God."
@InformingChristians if ppl have hang ups about the word "god" being "dog" when spelled backwards,or the fact that ppl like u understand the word god as being jesus then i can't blame them. devout or not, many are those who still understand, even amongst christians, that god is the Creator, and Jesus was only a man...now you're free to believe or disbelieve. chk out christian/muslim debates on utube, like deedat vs swaggart, or shabir Ally, or zakir naik etc...be objective and unbiased if u dare
Customer Support at Lowes, Comments and Complaints Dept, support Lowes CHOICE to stand with the American People by pulling their funding and support of All American Muslims... Islam is a cult, a political ideology concealed in the shadow of religion.Stand by Lowes CALL NOW...
@milton123 -- There is nothing heroic about blasting an American company on the floor of Congress, for exercising its right to not get involved in something of the religious/political nature. --Since when did American companies become obliged to promote a religion?
@razorx3113 Islam as a way of life and religion is PERFECT for it emanates from The Perfect One. MUSLIMS are not perfect and aren't expected to be either.
@BigJarrHead777 umm considering how Judaism (starting with Moses) branched out to Christianity (with Jesus), which branched out to Islam (with Muhammad), it's apparent that the BELIEF in the SAME God is present, with varying methods of worship, and accepted prophets...just putting THAT out there... lol
@muslimgiga -- Show me one example of a born again Christian congress person, using the floor of congress to bully Muslims and an American company into respecting and or promoting Christianity.
I'm Muslims and honestly whether or not its about Islam, I still feel like this country was created on the premise of people trying to reach a goal on an even playing field, I like to see people like this standing up for the rights that our founding fathers had so long fought for.
@KnightofDuroch -- Actually, what you are seeing is a congressman, abusing his power, by bulling an American company on the floor of Congress, by promoting a religion on the floor of Congress, and by harassing millions of American Christians who do not feel as he feels about Islam.
I'm proud that Chris Murphy is my representative in the U.S. Congress. And by the way Muslims worship the same god as Christians and Jews. The word 'God' is English but it's 'Allah' in Arabic and is similar in Hebrew. God exited way before English and Jesus did not speak English. Any way, thumps up Mr. Murphy.
@mohamedhendawy You are either lieing or you are ignorant of islam, Christians and jews are nothing alike and muslims are nothing like either of them, islam is a political ideology not a religion.
@mohamedhendawy Last I checked, Muslims were the only ones killing each other for religous beliefs and cutting off the heads of other humans that did not believe. When the good Muslims gain control, that will change.
@mohamedhendawy -- The real devout Muslims do not claim to worship the same God as the God of the Bible. And informed true born again biblical Christians know for a fact that they do not worship the same God.
@ahmadjus I'm totally with this guy and being against discrimination and everything, but Christians and Muslims don't worship the same God by any means, just throwing that out there
@BigJarrhead777 -- The real devout Muslims do not claim to worship the same God as the God of the Bible. And informed true born again biblical Christians know for a fact that they do not worship the same God.
@ahmadjus -- The real devout Muslims do not claim to worship the same God as the God of the Bible. And informed true born again biblical Christians know for a fact that they do not worship the same God.
Conservatives want all Muslims to be depicted as terrorists. Because depicting Muslims as regular people harms the Zionist, and Christofascist agenda against Muslims. Much of which has become a very politically and financially lucrative business for many right wingers. And the All-American Muslim hurts the hate market ( anti-Muslim book sales, political contribution, hate speech, anti-Islam posters, anti-Islam toys, etc.. ) which has made many republicans successful.
The way you show you disagree with this is you DONT BUT THEIR FUCKING PRODUCT!!! this country is full of bleeding heart pussies! Build a bridge and get over it! I can name thousands of things that Chris Murphy could have addressed that are way more important! This should be a non issue! Let the market do its job!!!
@yankeerph, are you slow? I mean its ok if you are but im just curious! Our rights are being stolen! I m saying this because Lowes has every right to sell or not sell you thier product based on anything they want, race,religion, cause your slow! Its their property!!! In this case its advertising, it should not be a big deal, if you dont like it dont shop there! Move on!!! Lowes has the right to not sell plywood to you cause youre black, cause youre white, cause you smell, cause youre asain!!!
If you haven't already done so, watch Jon Stewart's video on this issue. LOVE him! I was laughing out loud when I heard FFA's response on why they wanted sponsors of the show to pull out. Also, Lowe's response as to why they pulled out is laugh out loud funny!
-- Actually America is better than this. It is better than using the floor of congress to slam, harass and bully an American company and millions of Christians.
Lowe's simply realized that it is not a good idea to get involved in the religious/political agenda of the show's theme. And not sponsoring shows that have a religious/political agenda, actually promotes an atmosphere of inclusion and tolerance of all people into their stores.
@the1qfactor -- Now if we can get all Americans who believe as Murphy believes, to move to Connecticut's 5t district, perhaps the rest of America would be a better place to live.
@muslimgiga --- Well, if you are cool with the government pushing a religion on the whole of society, sure, then you must be as happy as a tuna in a can.
Brought to you by Home Depot...just kidding! I totally agree with Mr. Murphy and am glad to see someone in Congress truly taking a positive leadership position. Bout time.
@willard39 -- So you're cool with the floor of congress being used to bully, harass and slam an American company and millions of Christians who disagree with Islam. You are cool with the floor of congress being used to promote a religion and to demand that Americans support that religion. --okay, well, remember that if a true Christian ever gets on the floor of Congress and does such for Christianity.
@InformingChristians Anyone in this country who singles out another for race, religion, gender, sexuality or politics should be thrown out of the country. I served in defense of the Constitution and the rights of all, even you Christians (I'm an atheist), to practice their religion in peace and freedom. When you deny one sect of our population the same rights as you, you wipe your ass with the very freedom I was prepared to lay down my life to defend.
@willard39 Just wanted to say thank you for your service. I am a Christian, but fully support the freedom of my fellow citizens to practice the religion of their choice, or their choice to not practice a religion at all. Again, thanks for defending our freedom, even if our beliefs are not the same, this is what makes America great.
@katboo71 You're welcome! I think its our diversity that is our strength, not our differences. I also have a lot of respect for anyone with true faith or conviction, regardless of the brand of their religion.
@ThePhillyironlung - the point is that the gov't is trying to defend everybody's freedom's, not just yours. Lowe's pulling an ad is not obviously an infringement on Muslim freedom, but it is a bigoted maneuver - the type that usually precedes and encourages racism. Nobody - not even Rep. Murphy if you listened to the whole thing - is ignoring the economy in favor of this issue, but blowing it off because there are more important issues is exactly how people get away with racist activities.
Wow, what a waste of time and money!!! How about you figure out how to fix the economy instead of grandstanding against a company for making a choice of freedom bigotted or not! Although i do not agree with Lowes, its up to them whether or not they want to advertise on a show, not politicians! Wake up golks our freedoms are being stolen everyday!!! The govt is not your nanny and shouldnt be taking care of everything that might give you a boo boo!
@ThePhillyironlung You say this was a waste of time, and then you say that our rights are being stolen every day... which one is it? What Lowe's did is just the beginning of what the future could look like in this country. No freedom that the basis of this country was founded on, and who knows what else, so YOU need to wake up.
@YankeeRph -- Where is it written that Muslims have a RIGHT to have Lowe's support them? --Do you realize what you are saying??? The first amendment says that NO law shall be made RESPECTING an establishment of religion. Do you know what that means?
Lowe's didn't cut the ads because they are anti-Muslim, they cut the ads because of people complaining. It's a simple as that, replace Lowe's with Coke, Pepsi, Wal-Mart, Starbucks, etc. Every corporation bails when there is controversy. Some uppity fringe group complained, so Lowe's backed out. Everyone needs to stop being so fucking sensitive, no one can say anything anymore without somebody getting butt hurt.
This type of shit just shows that we're officially out of real problems.
@Trax0r1 People were complaining? You mean the extremist assholes in that Florida organization who are Islamophobic? And yes, people need to stop being so fucking sensitive, but who's being sensitive here? It's a reality TV show with normal people doing normal things, there was no need for Lowe's to listen to a racist organization and pull the ads THEY chose to put during that time slot. Can't wait until all the advertisers start listening to KKK about advertising on BET...
What a wonderful speech about bigotry and religious intolerance. Lowe's response was nothing but a bunch of corporate babble. I will never go to another Lowe's until they make a sincere apology to the thousands of Muslims they have offended, not to mention those of us that are not Muslim, but believe in freedom of religion.
The only part he's wrong about is when he says Muslims are "worshiping a different God." Islam's roots are the same as Judasim and Christianity. It's all the same God. Otherwise, well done.
@Madinite -- So you are cool with the floor of congress being used to promote a religion and to demand that Americans support that religion. --okay, well, remember that if a true Christian ever gets on the floor of Congress and does such for Christianity.
America doesn't feel like AMERICA when companies can openly and publicly participate in bigotry/racism. Wishing we were creating Peace around the world, not More Hatred. We ARE better than that!~ Native American Muslim!
@keyazeez -- Lowe's simply realized that it is not a good idea to get involved in the religious/political agenda of the show's theme. And not sponsoring shows that have a religious/political agenda, actually promotes an atmosphere of inclusion and tolerance of all people into their stores.
@youngtooldweaktobold -- There is nothing "well said," about using the floor of congress to promote Islam and demand that an American company does such.
@eshababy1988 -- So you are cool with the floor of congress being used to promote a religion and to demand that Americans support that religion. --okay, well, remember that if a true Christian ever gets on the floor of Congress and does such for Christianity.
This was probably all planned out by TLC to get people talking about a show, no one ever heard of or watched! Now I've heard of it, but still not gonna watch it. I limit myself to one hour of TV a day and that's dedicated to Judge Judith Sheindlin. Murphy is probably receiving kickbacks from TLC. Find out who owns TLC, find out if they have ever contributed to his campaign in any way. Always follow the money.
@bigmomentum -- So you are cool with the floor of congress being used to promote a religion and to demand that Americans support that religion. --okay, well, remember that if a true Christian ever gets on the floor of Congress and does such for Christianity.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Oh shut up, Murphy. You don't know WHY Lowe's pulled their advertising. Who fed you that crap, anyway? Lowes could have done it for a whole lot of reasons. No because of some Fla. groups said stuff about the show. You people need to back up and get busy handling REAL problems with this country. Who Lowes wants to spend THEIR damn money sure as hell isn't very high on 90% of our lists. - Christ. {rolleyes}
@UltimaiPhoneUser -- So you are cool with the floor of congress being used to promote a religion and to demand that Americans support that religion. --okay, well, remember that if a true Christian ever gets on the floor of Congress and does such for Christianity.
As VP of Global Affairs, African American Islamic Institute, I salute you. I am an American Citizen descendant six generations deep who feel proud when we are reminded of our greatness. Thank you for your courage and articulate expression of our values
Here is a funny idea, let Lowes worry about their advertising and maybe do your elected job, last I knew that national debt was not getting any smaller. You politicians need to worry about the big problem instead of making little ones.

Great speech by Chris Murphy. Islam is a religion of peace and it's unfortunate that people believe the actions of extremists to represent the true religion. One correction though... Muslims believe in the same God as Jews and Christians, Allah is just the Arabic translation of God

@PolishPunk04 -- Considering the latest version of the Catholic's ever-changing Catechism, defends Islam, this does not shock me.
Informed true born again Christians, biblical Christians who have been around since Jesus began His church on the TRUTH of who HE is, would never applaud Chris Murphy's bullying of an American company and millions of American Christians.

great points made - esp about giving ammo to anti-western extremists. I'm a Christian who has Muslim friends. I recognize that they may call the One I call 'God' by a different name, but their faith has the same roots as mine. I respect those who follow other paths *because* I am Christian, not despite that fact. My Holy Book teaches me that we ALL are given gifts to share with the Body... Humanity, not some exclusivist idol we fashion out of our bigotry and blasphemously call 'Jesus'.

We muslims aren't worshiping "a different God".there is only One Creator, Unseen but His Signs are everywhere for all to see,The God of Adam, Abraham, Moses, Jesus and Muhammad [May Peace Be Upon All of Them], this is Whom we muslims worship. Open a christian arab bible and see what is the name given to "GOD"...ALLAH in the arabic language...meaning AL = The, LAH= god...Makes is specific and definite Whom we are addressing, The One and Only Who has the right to be worshiped and none other!

@InformingChristians if ppl have hang ups about the word "god" being "dog" when spelled backwards,or the fact that ppl like u understand the word god as being jesus then i can't blame them. devout or not, many are those who still understand, even amongst christians, that god is the Creator, and Jesus was only a man...now you're free to believe or disbelieve. chk out christian/muslim debates on utube, like deedat vs swaggart, or shabir Ally, or zakir naik etc...be objective and unbiased if u dare

Conservatives want all Muslims to be depicted as terrorists. Because depicting Muslims as regular people harms the Zionist, and Christofascist agenda against Muslims. Much of which has become a very politically and financially lucrative business for many right wingers. And the All-American Muslim hurts the hate market ( anti-Muslim book sales, political contribution, hate speech, anti-Islam posters, anti-Islam toys, etc.. ) which has made many republicans successful.

@InformingChristians Anyone in this country who singles out another for race, religion, gender, sexuality or politics should be thrown out of the country. I served in defense of the Constitution and the rights of all, even you Christians (I'm an atheist), to practice their religion in peace and freedom. When you deny one sect of our population the same rights as you, you wipe your ass with the very freedom I was prepared to lay down my life to defend.

@ThePhillyironlung - the point is that the gov't is trying to defend everybody's freedom's, not just yours. Lowe's pulling an ad is not obviously an infringement on Muslim freedom, but it is a bigoted maneuver - the type that usually precedes and encourages racism. Nobody - not even Rep. Murphy if you listened to the whole thing - is ignoring the economy in favor of this issue, but blowing it off because there are more important issues is exactly how people get away with racist activities.

Lowe's didn't cut the ads because they are anti-Muslim, they cut the ads because of people complaining.
