A Muslim in the House
By Kevin Roeten (01/04/07)
Islam is indeed a religion everyone needs to worry about. On 1/3/07 a Mulim(Keith Ellison) was sworn in to the US House of Representatives. Unfortunately, we DO need to be worried about those Christians and Muslims who pick and choose to support their worldview. But the Islamic religion actually talks about using violence as a means to an end. The Bible does not.
If Ellison will not swear into his position using the Bible, he has indeed rejected it. The Bible says that Christ is the one and only God. Jewish people do swear in office using the 'Old Testament', not the Bible per 'se'. But we also know that the 'Old Testament' is definitely a large part of the Bible.
But there is no racism that is ever intended on Muslims. It's just that their way of life is totally different than Americans--especially concerning morals. The US Congress is not for any ordinary American, but one that stands for the Christian ideals that most of the Forefathers brought to that great 'experiment' called America. An experiment that in less than 300 years has become the greatest and strongest nation on earth. But everyone should know why that is.
Maybe some Muslim sympathizers need to catch up on their Koran. Anyone not following the exact faith of Islam is considered an 'unbeliever', and an 'infidel'. They do NOT recognize Christians as believers in Allah. How does one interpret "there shall be no compulsion in religion"? Have people actually read how true 'unbelievers' should be treated? And are they sure they're interpreting the use of the word 'jihad' correctly? No where does the Koran say that 'jihad' is supposed to be falsely interpreted as an 'inner' struggle. Evidently, millions of Muslims do not interpret it that way.
NEWSFLASH---God and Allah are not the same. For some reason 'Allah' did not come around until more than a thousand years later. If he was actually God, that certainly wouldn't be the case. People definitely need to research Ellison's past history with NOI(Nation of Islam) and CAIR(Counsel on American-Islamic Relations. Unfortunately, you're not likely to get all the correct information from the mainstream media. The 'Constitution' and 'Declaration' knew that Jesus Christ was THE God, not someone manufactured 1000 years later. If they did not believe He was, then they wouldn't have incorporated all of His sayings into the Constitution and Declaration. I don't believe Mohammed ever rose from the dead, did he?
One would obviously conclude that if any co-author of the Bible or the Koran was really God, He would have made sure that any writings He or His followers left behind were fairly easy to understand by humans. People forget too easily that Christianity and Islam are considered two entirely different religions for a specific reason.
We don't know if the 9/11 attacks were carried out by Ellison's fellow Muslims or not. It's good to normally go by the preponderance of the evidence when one has a concern. But Ellison has never decried the 9/11 occurrences. Ellison is a Muslim believer, not a Christian. Christ said that there would be many to come after Him and say they were THE god. Ellison was an ardent supporter of 'NOI' and 'CAIR'. Has one ever asked, or found out Ellison's true beliefs concerning 9/11?
Finally, a majority of Minnesotans DID elect Ellison, from a particular district. Now are we saying that all Minnesotans would have voted that way had they been given the chance? It may be quite presumptuous to think that. As a member of a completely different district, one can truthfully say that there is no reason Ellison should ever have been elected to such an important position. Bets are that there will be more Muslims that will attempt to do the exact same thing. And what happens when a large number of Muslims reside in Congress, and another radical Islamic attack occurs? Would Congress then vote to give the president as much power as needed to eliminate the Muslim onslaught? This scenario seems very likely within the next few years.
Either Ellison is a distinct follower of the Koran, or he's not a very good Muslim. Either one would not be a good idea to be an American representative in Congress. The Koran is never a good starting point. Holding one's hand on the Koran is obviously no guarantee of peace in the future. Think about it. But think about it real hard. Actually, your survival could depend on it.
