					<description><![CDATA[I stopped buying hip-hop, back when it was still rap, because the lyrics sickened me. I didn&#039;t mind the music itself -- I&#039;d bought dozens of albums of the stuff, and still like some of it -- it was explicitly the lyrics. 

Isn&#039;t it weird that it is almost certainly the ones labelled &quot;sexist&quot; who are actually more offended than the &quot;woke&quot; about the treatment of women in hip-hop. Not faux &quot;offended&quot; but actually offended.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I have always thought that white men, musicians and listeners have placed black women in sexual roles in music. Their look is more of a come on and their words more explicit. They add purrs and moans. They get into a groove and move in close to the horn players and guitarists. Many white singers do, but not like black women. Prop her up as a woman who can fulfill your desires. And you don&#039;t have to have any guilt. Hip hop is just another level of the same.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[&lt;b&gt;In fact, many churchmen advised their sovereigns and their vassals not to Crusade, as it was wrong (and still is) to engage in violence in Christ’s name. Especially not over real estate. While I firmly believe the Crusades could have easily been sanctioned as a just war, the church went to far and made it a holy war. This is a direct violation of the third commandment, and unfortunately many Crusaders who met Christ after fighting in it found out too late that Christ was not bound by the church’s promise of automatic entry into heaven.

&lt;/b&gt;

They also ended up sacking Constantinople and killing/raping anyone that the Vatican told them was excommunicated?

Maybe that looks like Jesus of Nazareth on his Holy War Path but.. not to me.

Just another State sanctioned war for human greed.

&lt;b&gt;If Christ wants the Holy Land back he’ll take it himself as it says in Isaiah.

&lt;/b&gt;

They are already doing it. Look up Muslim conversion stories to Christianity on youtube.

Far more powerful than America&#039;s bombs bombing ragheads. That didn&#039;t convert anybody far as I know.

&lt;b&gt;If you’re alone and unsupported because you’ve been disowned by your operation for “being racist?” Not only are they much more likely to succeed, even if you survive you will be held responsible for every death that results, theirs and yours.

&lt;/b&gt;

Warriors have never relied on society for protection. That was a misperception.

The Way of the Warrior has always been solo combat only. Me against the Entire World if needed, just like Edward Snowden decided to do.

Always an ideal, but usually people never get to that point.

Of course I&#039;m going to be held responsible for all their deaths. Because all of them will be dead. Is that a problem?

People might want to read Revelations and the various other conspiracies up on youtube. It won&#039;t be long now.

					<description><![CDATA[I have not even begun to plumb the examples of Muslim atrocities regardless of race or nationality. This doesn&#039;t excuse the purported Christians who engaged in the Crusades. They committed bloody atrocities as well. In fact, many churchmen advised their sovereigns and their vassals not to Crusade, as it was wrong (and still is) to engage in violence in Christ&#039;s name. Especially not over real estate. While I firmly believe the Crusades could have easily been sanctioned as a just war, the church went to far and made it a holy war. This is a direct violation of the third commandment, and unfortunately many Crusaders who met Christ after fighting in it found out too late that Christ was not bound by the church&#039;s promise of automatic entry into heaven.

If Christ wants the Holy Land back he&#039;ll take it himself as it says in Isaiah.

There is one simple difference between the atrocities that the so-called Christians committed and those the Muslims committed. The Christians almost to a man didn&#039;t know what Christ taught. It was illegal to translate the Bible from the Latin into the vernacular. How many of the knightly class could read and understand Latin. Almost zero, and then things get worse among the lower classes. Even a great many priests, among the most literate of all people in Europe at the time of the Crusades, often had to have the liturgies they were performing in Latin explained to them in the vernacular so they could know what they were saying.

So most of the men on crusade didn&#039;t know they were acting in opposition to Christ&#039;s teaching.

The Muslims on the other hand are acting in accordance with Alllah&#039;s teachings, and the example of their prophet. Now it is true that most Muslims during the four centuries of Jihad that led up to the first crusade were illiterate, they still were spot on theologically. And I enjoy it when I discuss the Quran with Muslims (they usually become Quran-only Muslims after I embarrass them with the ahadith and the sirah literature) finally retreat to the bastion of &quot;It can only be understood in Arabic.&quot; So much for Allah&#039;s final revelation being for all mankind. First of all, the Quran itself says that Allah &quot;sent down&quot; the Quran in Arabic so the Arabs wouldn&#039;t have as an excuse on judgement day that unlike other people they didn&#039;t have any scripture in their own language. Unlike the Jews and Christians. So for them to turn around and require the rest of us to learn Arabic to understand this &quot;final revelation&quot; is laughable and in fact contrary to Allah&#039;s word.

Second, only about 15% of Muslims are Arabic speakers. So most Muslims don&#039;t have a clue.

Finally of the 15% of Muslims who do speak Arabic almost none of them can comprehend 8th century classical Arabic. Note I say 8th rather than 7the century Arabic, as there is no basis to believe there is any historicity to the standard Islamic historical myth. 

Almost none of you could get very far reading the original text of Chaucer&#039;s Canterbury Tales, which was written in late Middle English in the 14th century. Which is why modern versions of the Canterbury Tales are called translations. I enjoy pointing out to Muslims who try to spring this &quot;Arabic only&quot; argument on me that their 1924 Cairo Qurans (which the vast majority of Sunni Muslims, and therefore the vast majority of Muslims, rely upon) are just as much a translation of the earliest Qurans as anything I read in English.

But all that being said, when they commit atrocities in the name of Allah they are getting their scripture right, whereas any so-called Christian committing an atrocity in the name of God is not only doing so in opposition to the teachings of Christ but violating the 3rd Commandment and commits an unforgivable sin.

Exodus 20:7

&lt;blockquote cite=&quot;&quot;&gt;“You shall not misuse the name of the Lord your God, for the Lord will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Committing evil in the name of God is the epitome of misusing His name.]]></description>
