It doesn't matter if your a Christian or a Muslim, or Black or White, or Korean or Japanese, you should be remembered as an American.

A very passionate man. Whether you're a critic or a supporter, you have to give him some level of respect. Check out what he has to say for himself in his upcoming autobiography "My Country Tis of Thee" .amazon.com /Country-Tis-Thee-Keith-Elliso­n/dp/145166687X/?tag=karenhunt­erpu-20 (no space)

Ellison should be lynched from a street light.

Well if you ask me all these religions are rather comical. Each tries to justify itself by denying the other. I'm no atheist and I'm certainly not here to champion Islam. I simply take the stance that "your religion is for you". They all have killed and abused in the name of their God at one point or another. For the sake of humanity people should simply commune and worship with those with like beliefs and understand that no man or woman will become willing believers by force. God has to be sad

The US bombing people is not a theory dummy. Apparently you dont watch the news or use your computer to keep up. I will leave this earth without choosing any of these wacked out religions that breed war. My mmotivations are derived from a sincere care for my fellow human beings of every shade, religion and country. The fact that Im black makes it mmuch harder to be as patriotic as you. I have seen the kind of discrimination the US is capable of. You dont get to feel it like I have.

whatever man. i have no interest in engaging in a meaningless debate about your delusional theories. nor do i care about your desire to appease muslims.

i'm sure your muslim masters appreciate you sucking their dicks. i guess now you don't have to worry about them killing you. go ahead and convert to islam. it seems to be where you motivations derive from.

game over over dude.

Our past three presidents have Christian beliefs and have murdered in masses by bombing without recourse. Game over my friend. I am American. I dont side with any religion. I dont belong to any party. I simply seek the truth and accept it no matter how I feel personally about the source.
