#3 "When the Christians say they want to convert every person in Kenya to be a Christian, nobody complains. But if we say as Muslims that we want everybody here to become a Muslim, everybody is up in arms!"

That's because Christians don't kill you if you don't dhimmi convert

#4 That's because Christians don't kill you if you don't convert

And we also don't kill you even if you decide to stop being a Christian and be something else instead.

Its called liberty and in most Christian dominated countries today it is the norm. (Note: This does not say that all Christian dominated countries enjoy perfect liberty nor does it say that Christian dominated countries have never done anything wrong)

There isn't a single muslim country that enjoys full liberty in law or in practice nor has that ever been the case in any muslim dominated land in any time or place.

#5 This article perfectly outlines the tactics of deconstructionism, which I have mentioned in other posts. Here’s how it works (and BTW, they’re doing it in Canada, too):

The Islamists’ goal is to make Africa "the first Islamic continent of the world ” by securing the following objectives:

1) Eradicate all non-Muslim religions
2) Appoint Muslims to key national and international positions
3) Implement Sharia (Islamic law) across the continent, and
4) Push for Kadhis courts in the constitutions of African countries.

Step by step they worm their way in:

1) “To date, 12 of Nigeria’s 36 states have adopted Sharia law.”

2) “Muslims say Sharia courts bolster their status as a minority . . .”

3) “Muslims initially sought to widen the powers of the Islamic courts to include criminal law. (Criminal prosecutions under Sharia law allow for stoning and amputations) . . .”

Those who oppose this “takeover” discovered:

“that the Islamic religion had been given a very special treatment in the (constitution) document, which was not given to any other religion. This was the only religion that was mentioned specifically, extensively and expressly in the document." and that “ . . . the battle over Sharia has only emboldened Kenyan Islamists . . . a top radical leader and supporter of Osama bin Laden, warned that Muslims around Kenya will mobilize for Jihad if anyone tries to stop Sharia law from becoming a reality.”

Drip, drip, drip . . . and soon the bucket’s full.

“But opponents of Kadhi courts argue that Kenya is a secular state, and all citizens should be subject to the same law . . . This is one reason why many Christians are working to stop what they see as a dangerous turn from a free democracy to a federal Islamic republic."

We can all hope and pray that theys are successful at stopping Islam in that part of Africa.

In another post today (at this link), we see the same basic thing going on, albeit especially “toned-down” for the American social context. In that instance acceptance of Islam as a special class, and recognition and legitimacy for Islam as an minority entity are the objectives. This paves the way for greater inroads into the legal system, and is a tactic all deconstructionists use.
