We're Not A Christian Nation, We're One Of The Larger Muslim Nations

[tim huntzinger]

The point was a bit dubious, but I don't get the outrage.

The problem with this claim - besides its blatant stupidity - is that declaring the US an Islamic nation may lead to non-Muslims into dhimmihood.  "Whosoever gives away a hand span of Islamic land Allah will grant him an equal hand span in Hell." (Hadith)  Once a land has been occupied by the Ummah, that land is forever Muslim.  Besides declaring himself an infidel by renouncing Allah, O'bama is really playing with fire by allowing the camel to get its nose under the tent!

Do I hear an echo in here?

It's poutrage.  McCain lost, therefore everything about the Obama administration is evil.

"It is important to note that "if you actually took the number of Muslim Americans, we'd be one of the largest Muslim countries in the world".

Wow.  Proof positive...that you know how to cherry-pick. In that very article you can read apparently contradictory statements; you cherry-picked ONE and ignored the other...and tried to foist garbage upon us.  Thanks for nothing.  

[GASP]  It just occurred to me that reading retention may be a problem for you.  Here's a test:

Peanuts are crunchy.  Peanuts are soft.

Now, think back; think very hard.  Did the previous sentences claim, at any point, that peanuts were crunchy?   If a) you can't remember, b) aren't able to figure it out, or c) are pretty sure that peanuts are soft, then you may want to seek professional help.

He called us a Muslim nation.  What is hard about that?  Say he misstated his intented meaning or spoke awkwardly, but it is pretty stupid to say he did not say it at all.  Are you saying he did not say that?  What an ignorant thing to suggest!  Get ye back to talk of penny sales taxes!  You do know I did not start this thread, right?

Indonesia (213 million)
Pakistan (156 million)
Bangladesh (127 million)

At 2.3 million (about 0.8% of the world Muslem population) I would say that the US in not one of the larger Muslim nations. 

I guess it depends on what your definition of "Large" is. . . or "is" is. . . or something.

Why don't you find a quote that shows he said that. You are paraphrasing inaccurately at best.

He didn't.

This guy (http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/toby_harnden/blog/2009/06/03/barack_hussein_obama_us_one_of_the_largest_muslim_countries_in_the_world) says he said 'if you actually took the number of Muslim Americans, we'd be one of the largest Muslim countries in the world".

I am not alone. Click that search-engine link above.  Good luck trying to goad me but it will not work.  Dhimmi.

OK, I can do it too Re-Re.

The United States is the fourth largest country.

Russia, Canada, and China are the only larger countries.  If they were Muslim countries they'd win but we'd be one of the largest muslim countries.

You're still an idiot and he never said the United States is a Muslim Country.

I will give you he said 'IF' but what you think he said and what I think he said is immaterial.  This is playing with fire.  Man you guys are ignorant!  And who is the idiot but he who completely and absolutely made up the 'fact' to begin with?  He says all kinds of crazy things that are contradictory sooooo.

And he was not referring to land size but said 'population.' Dhimmi.
