Parents who don't get it

A 22-year-old Palestinian mother of two small children, pretending to be disabled, killed four Israelis at a Gaza border crossing yesterday after duping soldiers into allowing her a personal security check rather than going through a metal detector.

"God has given me two children. I love them [with] a kind of love that only God knows, but my love to meet God is stronger still."

This is also the first time that Hamas OKd a woman bomber, and everybody awaits the first children bombers.

So far the children have only been used sub-militarily as human shields, but they are all educated on the joys and methods of suicide bombing at schools painted with murals of suicide bombings and named after suicide bombers on streets named after suicide bombers.

The rapture.

Organized religion is such a fabulous thing. Praise Allah. Or the virgin Mary, whichever you prefer.

Why don't the people that organize and supply this activity, do it themselves. After all this woman didn't get the explosives at the 7-11 so someone is organizing.

On the up side the Arabs seem to be getting more inclusive.

I'll get mad and post at you for saying that Catholics praise Mary. I'm screaming at you in my head. We don't.

So what's that whole Hail Mary thing about, then?

Fun fact: The difference between "Allah" and "God" is essentially the same as between "God" and "der Gott". Same concept, different languages.

I was going to ramble on about how Muslim terrorists aren't really representative of the whole, but I'm not sure it's worthwhile. I mean, it's obvious that the KKK isn't made up of everyday Christians, right?

Honoring and praising are two different things.

Nothing in the Hail Mary suggests that we actually praise her.

Let's look at some of the "facts":

--Mary was born without original sin (though this was declared by a Pope).
--Mary conceives a child without getting any.
--Mary is assumed into Heaven without any mention of death.
--Mary was crowned as the Queen of Heaven.

And what about all the various names for her?

--Our Lady of Sorrows
--Mary Queen of the Universe
--Our Lady of Guadalupe

etc. etc.

Catholicism can call it praise all they want. As I see it, it's hero worship...virtual deification.
