This is what happens when you have a president that essentially declares war on science and does nutty things like putting a muzzle on the surgeon general:

Wow. Just wow.

Only in Utah...

Nice. :)

speaking of radical muslims!

All religious extremism is the same. It's like comparing Communism and Facism.

thanks of informing me ,since i all i have been told was "civilized people dont kill any one over his thought and speech"
your new signature has got something much smarter to say ,by the way!

You're talking about one yahoo running around a university in Colorado where the vast majority views him as a nut compared to a region where there are thousands who have this attitude and are tolerated, protected and even supported by the governing powers. The fact that you need to refer to some whacko like this for a comparison makes the point.

So there is no misunderstanding, my signature is not an argument for returning to marchy nor for theocracy or dictatorship. It is, if anything, a plea for bearing with democracies despite despots like Gearge W. Bush.

All religions are capable of similar extremism if left unchecked. Al Queda=Tim McVey=MMM=Inquisition. The difference is the enlightened civic society, the larger secular culture that has been dominant in the West since the Enlightenment, that is a tempering influence on religion and is largely absent in the Middle East.

Mindful - what are your thoughts about Gen. Pervez Musharraf in Pakistan?

This is the kind of guy I like who has leadership in the countries where Islam is practiced. Telling the terrorist who cowardly hide in mosques that they need to surrender or die, then following through with the ultimatum is a step in the right direction.

So now there is one moderate in power who is doing the right thing. Perhaps there are more, but I've head of no others. The rest of the Muslim people need to step up and do the same to rid the world of terrorists.
