So inviting muslims to your church = harboring extremists?? Shameful!!

I think the fundies are becoming more and more intolerant .....( if that is possible)

When the Muslim Public Affairs Council arranged to hold its annual convention at All Saints Church in Pasadena, Calif., this Saturday, leaders of both organizations believed it would be a bold demonstration of progress in interfaith relations.

But now the organizers of the convention have had to call in the local police department and private security guards after a conservative Christian group posted an article accusing All Saints, an Episcopal church, of harboring Muslim extremists, and the church received a barrage of hate mail.

1. Not just fundies, but a handful of DU members feel likewise.

That's why recently I've begun to simply trash any and all threads relating to muslims or related issues - you don't really get intelligent discussion; you get jingo, racism, bigotry.

But I'll K&R for the fact that obviously, you don't share that bigotry.
