Would calling Charles Manson "insane and evil" be disrespectful? Or would it be an objective observation based on the facts? This lady is a disingenuous gasbag.

Karen Armstrong's a dhimmi Saudi tool, voiced disagreement with the violent ideology of Islam does not equate to Islamophobia.

It's truly most alarming that Obama chose to attend the pro-ummah, speech-suppressing, UN-backed Alliance of Civilizations in his trip to Turkey.

I have never seen such an idiot. The Islam kills everyday everywhere it is OK, the the Holly Pope speaks against hate in religions he is the bad guy.

This lady is a whopper.

This Lady used to be a nun, left the church, did her PHD thesis on Alfred Lord Tennyson, aka World Government, and wrote books about how great Islam is and always bashes Christiany, and those who actually believe in Christianity. Her hypocrisy is sickening.

An extremist muslim would slice her throat without a second thought! What, hate me saying that? When the Amish or Presbyterians start committing atrocities around the world I'll speak out against them too.

Remember this, Lady... Jesus Christ said, "I AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE. NO MAN COMETH UNTO THE FATHER BUT BY ME."

THIS JUST IN: "YOU CAN'T CHANGE THE FACTS!" No matter how bad you wish to change the TRUTH of GOD and EXCHANGE THE TRUTH OF GOD FOR A LIE, you will fail!

Jesus Christ died for the sins of the World and shed his blood for the remission of sins. You either accept the facts, or you reject the facts. It's your choice! YOU CHOOSE! You don't control God Missy! UR NOTHING!

I respect her sincerity but I am shocked at her ignorance of History or reality.

Over a billion people live in nations controlled by Islamic principles. Thus to many, Muhammad was a rousing success. Yet these very same nations are among the world's most destitute, least free, and most violent. And they are the fountain of terror, providing the money, men, motive, and means for murder.

[michaelsonp]

Yes, because there are no absolutes. Let's just sift everything down into whatever makes everyone comfortable and feel good and abandon our legacies and beliefs so we don't hurt anyone else's feelings.

This is such BS. She's clearly more concerned about offending Muslims than anyone else.

After this pious hand wringing apologist for religion, I yearn for the rationality of Hitchens or Dawkins.
