Dancing with the Devil.

Pounding. Head. Against. Wall.

Talk about useful idiots.

I know I've blogged about moderate Muslims and our need to recognize and deal with them. However I own up to being of a "show me" mentality before any dealings. These folks seem to be falling all over themselves to be politically correct and "ecumenical" in their outlook.

What really got my attention was the "opportunity to engage in interfaith dialogue and friendship" . There's a phrase that will make you feel all warm and soft inside. That and all of them being children of Abraham. This last is a view that towards the end of the article is cited as being rejected by the Presbyterian General Assembly. (Just as an aside, is there ANY church whose adherents follow their leadership these days?) And isn't it time to give old Abraham a rest? Seems he's always referenced at times like this.

HEY! THAT WAS OVER FIVE THOUSAND YEARS AGO!! HE'S DEAD AND GONE. LET'S STOP PLAYING THE "ABRAHAM CARD", OKAY?

Sorry, it's been a long week.

Someone should tell the dear Rev. that when you dance with the Devil he isn't going to change. You might, but he won't.

I'm not talking out of both sides of my mouth on this issue. What I'm saying is something addressed at the very beginning of the article. The questions that were never asked but should have been. "Show me" comes into play when I try to determine if a Muslim group is affiliated with the Islamofacists we're currently fighting. Not to ask any questions out of a sense of misplaced propriety is stupid. Period.
