New Bin Laden Tape Surfaces...and so therefore I ranted.

My response to the thread will shock some. Those who know me well will simply shake their heads and wonder...

OK, that’s all great. Thanks all above for the history lesson. But, as a business person I just need to get the bottom line quickly. So, can you clear up how this jihadist that advocates killing kids if they’re Christian, cutting the clitorises off of little girls, sending suicide bombers into weddings, burning women alive on the accusation of infidelity and backing the murder of 3,000 of my countrymen has a leg to stand on? We don’t scare that easily.

I have some good Muslim friends that don’t believe any of that diatribe either. I explain it to the kids like this: Islamic fundamentalism is to Islam as the KKK is to Christianity. Except that the Middle East has let some of them (fundamentalists) steal power with terror. Hopefully we’ll get to the point where they [the constituency - including women] let these misguided elders parade around with signs proclaiming their ignorance and prosecute them if they start to collect weapons or actually act violently. Just like we have to do with the idiots in sheets here in Georgia!

Bin Laden’s rhetoric is indeed weakening. I’m not much for reading, and the Bible as well as the Qu'ran are both way too thick for people with ADD to wade through. Let alone learning the Arabic or Hebrew required to make sure you don’t dump language translation on top of translating the word of God and Allah. But, I’m willing to bet my soul that when we all reach our respective promised lands God and Allah are one in the same and he’s pissed at us for being such idiots. Men wrote both documents and the potential for data being misinterpreted and lost in translation(s) is huge.

Let’s look If the Bible and The Qu’ran were plans for airplanes they’d probably fly like bricks. In the Qu’ran Ayesha was only six when married off and in the Bible moses was 600. Really? Or, perhaps were we as mankind still getting up to speed on a universal solar cycle based calendar? Every attempt to take the words of either text literally invariably fails to end well. For example, all the massively successful crusades that happened, ½ a millennium ago. Why are Muslim fundamentalists still upset about that? We got over being angry with the Japanese in the 1960’s. Give me a break.

In the end, Bin Laden’s foray into history will likely end in a fizzle as opposed to bang. They’ll find his lanky corpse in the back of cave, alone and cold with the blood all 1,000s all over his hands. “Hey look mom, I’m a prophet.”

Oh and here’s one more thing I’d like to prophesize: When we reach the end of days this God/Allah/Buddha/Soaring Eagle creator of ours is likely going to be a woman too! How do ya’ all like that?
