#1 "Islam has become the religion of the oppressed," said Farhad Khosrokhavar, a sociologist who has written books on conversions in prison and on suicide bombers.

LMAO ! He's as confused as the simpletons he's trying to write about

If Islam is taking away the likes of Richard Reid and Muriel Degauque , then thats fine by me .... If they all club together maybe their accumulative IQ may reach zero , if they are lucky ...

#3 "Islam has become the religion of the oppressed,"

Are they oppressed before or after conversion? I mean, the word "Islam" does mean "submission".

#4 In some ways this reminds me about the line concerning converts to the Roman Church, they are more Catholic than the Pope.

#5 Sorry for the repeat anecdote, but:

I remember a story in my local Sunday News Mag right after 9/11 about a local all-American Catholic school college boy who converted to Sunni Islam.

He spewed the usual party line bilge about Islam's "peace" and how misunderstood it is, etc. The thing that really summed up the story and the perversity of what he had done was that since his conversion, he avoids any contact with the family dog that he had grown up with.

#6 he avoids any contact with the family dog that he had grown up with.

No dawgs, no heaven.

#8 "Nowadays, Islam is a kind of ideal means to express discontent with society and the Western world in general," he said.

Keep ~~honking~~ expressing your discontent, I'm reloading.

Gotta agree, Hatfield. I'd rather walk my wolf hybrid in hell than miss him in heaven.

#9 Actually, according to an old Twilight Zone episode, the way to tell if the Devil is trying to trick you into Hell is the fact that he won't let your dog in. So, no dog means you are not headed towards Heaven. Always wondered if that is why Mo made dogs so unclean for the Muslims.
