Corbin & Justi
You are both quite correct. It was wrong to use the term 'racist abuse' when what I really meant was 'xenophobic anti-Muslim agression'.

Re: Racist???
Corbin, If all the Muslims turned white as a sheet tomorrow it would have no effect on the hat of the radicals. Thank you so much.

Settle down, mate. Nobody is questioning Justi's right to express herself. I am merely
disagreeing with her.

There are a few on here who do not have a clue about me they just love to rant to me and about me. This last one even wrote a post today about my short comings. I say just let them rant. I will read the adults here. Thank you so much for the support.

Last time I checked this was a free country where all views are allowed.
And to be expressed. Nobody has the rught to come to your site and insult you for your views. I really thought we wer all adults respecting each other. Keep writing and try to ignore the irritations.

Gramsci c/o Justi
What I should have done in this case, was emailed this comment to Justi instead of posting it. I can see how it would bewilder you. At the same time, I have a feeling that Justi could easily understand what I was trying to say to her. It seems that you have mounted an attack on this person and that you come here to gather more material for your own blogs. You have the right to do that, but I don't want to be a part of it.

You know that I respect you a lot, but what you have said here is just bewildering. The offence taken during the last post, by several different people, related to the extraordinary attempt Justi made to connect the Virginia shootings to broader Muslim violence - an interpretation which simply cannot be justified in any rational way.
Nobody took offence because they were unstable, or lacked inner-peace; but rather because the comments by Justi were a pathetic attempt to slur all the wonderful Muslim people that live around the world.
There would be a sickness within myself if I did not stand up to this kind of racist abuse.

Just keep writing. When one is offended, it comes from problems within that have not been resolved. Anger, resentment, embarrassment, hurt, displeasure, are responses that have their basis in something that has already happened in ones life. Whatever you write from your heart is not the cause of their discomfort. It only reminds them of the problem that they already have.
(Great peace have they who love God's Law and nothing shall offend them. So says Psalm 119:165)

I have been in constant prayer for 24 hours;
A fate of walking in the truth is persecution and condemnation as was the fate of our Jesus. "If you are ashamed of me, if you deny me, I will not have known you."
J, you go bodly before the thrown in your relationship with Christ. Although we are forewarned of persecution and condemnation, we are also promised to be held and comforted. I stand bodly beside you in truth, united in relationship with Christ.
I bring you a word from our Father; He knows you well. The power of authority He gives you is in love, not anger but in understanding your heart He responds; speak the truth in all your ways. Truth is brought into His light and trust in Him; it is already written in His word;
Praying for you this morning; He kept bringing me to the words; circumcised only in the flesh and uncircumcised in heart. Please read Jeremiah 9 and especially verses 12-25.
Be blessed my sister in Christ. Cheryl Ann
