This is a wonderful thought really - a bridge between two worlds - there to promote unity.  Christianity is the same - as you see the concern rife throughout the Christian Scripture upholding the poor, the widow and the orphan and enjoining the faithful to be involved - as this is direct devotion and love for God..and capitalism, for all its flaws has brought about free societies and the freedom to advance and freedoms of speech and thought and worship...it has also brought about amazing innovations in technology that have lengthened the average life span of human beings in the world...

I really like your description of what the communities of faith are and can be...

And, to the faithful, our faith in God and His calling, encompasses everything...to the socialist and capitalist - their faith in human means encompasses everything...but the Bible tells us, 'the fool hath siad in his heart, there is no God.'

i do not think your sympathy is very appropriate when you perceive me as being "on the wrong side",

Sorry, wrong number. I pity you for misinterpretting the ayaats and trying to tell us that the Qur'an allows bombing people for "changing" them!!

What's the difference then between your Extra Additional Deputy Gaad, the US, and OBL?

You are flattering yourself by thinking as if it matters to me what side you are on. I hold no desire to collect a grabage can full of warmongering Neo Con idiots.

What's the difference between Sasha's communists and any of those he attempts to disparage?  The communist are magnitudes worse...and so from what authority does he proceed?  None...will you renounce the communist atrocities Sasha, or just shut your eyes and demand that we shut ours..?

The US has many blemishes and blood on its record (amidst many, many accomplishments) - but not nearly the blood that is on your hands and those you promote.  And what are the communists achievements?  Shall we list them here?

...

What do you say, what can you say?  Nothing..as we expect..
