Yeah, loved the remark about how "most [Muslims] are very harsh. There's no tenderness or love". What, because they wanted to repay the "compliment" of praying for her?
The woman barely understands the language she's using. She speaks of "Aides" as being "a compensation in thier bodies for their disobedience and rebellion to the way God intended." I think she's confusing "retribution" with "payment", in the "the wages of sin are death" sense, perhaps.
Apparently, "God said it was an 'abomination' for a man to lust after another man, and woman to do the same". First of all, the line is "a man shall not lay with another man as he would with a woman"; most gay men lay with another man as they would with a man. Second...it's an abomination unto God for a woman to lust after another man. Hey, God must adore lesbians, then!
Also: "paganism, witchcraft, false religions and other forms of idolotry". Idolatry, boys and girls, is the worship of an idol as the physical manifestation of a god. It is not a superset of paganism, witchcraft, or false religions.
"As for Iraq and other nations with muslim religions, most seem to serve an Allah that is so opposite to the Loving God of Christianity." Funny, I didn't realize there was more than one. Also, what's this Loving God business? Compare:
"If you study the Old Testament, you can see that whenever the children of Israel would turn from God and go after other gods, the curses of lack, disease, and no peace would always accompany that decision." So, God loves you, but if you turn away from him, you're gonna SUFFER!
As an Oklahoman, can I just say one thing? I'm. Not. With. Her.
My favorite is the dissatisfied mother and son who don't vote, yet disagree with the government. You'd think thay'd want to change it.
The problem is that too many people are like that: they hate the people in power, yet are too lazy to make a difference, or believe they are too insignificant.
