I don't know where you heard the American people want to kill you, but it's completely false. The vast majority of the American people want Iranians to have freedom to choose their path in life without fear of an opressive government. Americans would gladly support Irans people in building a free and prosperous nation which would be welcomed with open arms by all nations. The problem is the Iranian government talking about using nuclear weapons in premptive attacks. Its not the people, its the government.

Exactly my point, my friend. The thing is, and I'll try to avoid sterotyping Americans as they so carelessly do with Arabs. It is un-"American" to strip so many of their liberty in the name of "freedom". It is un"Christian" to disrespect a fellow human the way that has been done. It is extremely naive to think that the Bush administration is trying to help, knowing that Bush's family has gathered so much wealth through the exploitation of petroleum. I don't see how people don't spend more time on questions like these. Questions that matter. Thank you very much, my friend. (BTW, I'm an American Citizen of a Christian Church)

Well..I too am offended. I am so sick of people in America making decisions as to not offend others, but pushes our beliefs to the side...I LIVE IN AMERICA...I EXPECT to be able to speak of God when I wish and have his name on what I wish..if these people are so damn offended by God then they need to quit coming here. They use our american currency with God written on it don't they?!? We take God out of everything, take the pledge out of schools and wonder why so many kids are screwing up and going down the wrong path...It's like this because basically America has said...well we have founded ourselves on this BUT as to not offend anyone that has come here we are going to shut ourselves up to please others and keep God out of everything...Do the people in other countries quit worshipping whoever it is they do because we go there? Do they change the words in their pledges or whatever to satisfy us? Do they remove their God from anything public as to not offend anyone?? This is America, land of the free....or so I thought.

I wanted to start by saying that I am a Christian.\n\nPeople who are non-Christians are not going to feel better after reading your post. This post comes across as the same pushiness that people don't like anyway. I understand that you believe very strongly, as do I, but please find a new way to share the love of God. This just seems pushy and it almost sounds like you think you are better than the "poor unsaved people."\n\nGod bless you though for trying!

What kind of crazy stuff are u talking about? Are u Human? I pray that u are. Jesus volunteered and sacrificed his life 4 our sins so that we can have a better life here and hereafter! You act like u don't even believe in God. Is this a joke or strife to sir up? You are to blame for Ur own ignorance. Read the word of God for ur self before u insult others. People here don't take insults lightly. They will report u!

I would shine for Christ no matter what.  We were just talking about this in Church last night.  How sexual immorality is being more widely accepted and Christians are being more persecuted.  Like in schools, the government is teaching people that it is okay to be gay or that a boy may really be a girl.  But if you pray in school, you'll be suspended.  I really do not know why this suprises us as Christians, we were told that this would happen.  I have even heard about this night club in Mexcico (I think) that implants a chip in your hand and a mark on your arm that holds all your records.  They use it to tell your age and even holds your credit card info so you can use it to pay for stuff.  It is stated that this will happen in th book Revelation.  You see all the bad things that happen to our country just lately.  Since this country has turned away from God.  We have been attacked on our own soil, natural disasters are tearing away at our cities, and we are fighting amongst ourselves.  Back in 1776, when God was fully involved with the United States, before we turned away from him, He gave us everything we needed.  In Leviticus 26 it states what happens when people follow His commands, good crops, saftey from our enemies, etc.  We had all that.  God was with us when we fought for this land from England.  Now we are getting attacked on our own land.  I know the end is coming.  I don't know if it will be today or 2000 years from now.  But I intend for my heart to be prepared on the day of Rapture and my car will be unmanned.

Wow-very very true! I can't believe you picked up on that.I thought I was the only one. \n\nyou are very perceptive. Don't Libs understand that it's Christianity that makes them act that way?\n\neverybody listen to this guy-he knows what he's talking about.

I find no joy in that whatsoever. I am with God and wish that all would be saved and come to repentance. They may mock and deride us today, but they could be my brothers and sisters tomorrow. You never know. I would much rather pray for them rather than see their demise.

My god what are they teaching in the schools these days. Some one said so what we have em, Israel has em..... \n Are you that stupid. If we let Iran have them, then they will end up on your lap one day when you go to eat dinner. That dude is a Nut ball and has already said that his plans is to take Israel off the map. After he takes out Israel where do you think he would attack next? Yes that's right, right here in the USA. Think its to big of a job for him. Well maybe, only because we already took out Iraq(which you probably was against as well)and The Taliban. Good grief what is wrong with you people, Don't you know what a Nuke is. There are to many in the world already and if we let anyone else have them then its that much more of a threat. Especially some mental case. Go USA. I still live here. If you don't like it then move over with them. Be decent for once, Support your president and your country. I still love this place. You should to.

Vow Marianne, don't accept what people claim to be.\nThey announce that everyone who sign up for this Suiside Bombing show will get a raise on his paycheck and you can imagine how many people will sign up , they usually force some of Military people to join it and they happily accept it for few days off. They will march once and go back to their homes.\nA suiside bomber needs to be a little insane because of very bad circumstances, he needs to think he is doing it for God, freedom, his country and his family, this is possible for a Palestinian not an Iranian.\nHave you heard of any suiside bombing done by Iranians? You can check 9/11, Israel and Iraq suiside attacks and all the sources you have. Have you heard any Iranian in Al-Quada?\nEven religious Iranians don't like such acts, they rather to go Iraq as a pilgrim instead of terrorist.\nIranian has threatened Israel for 30 years,  no harm to Israel has done by Iran, I mean it is true that Iran supports some of Anti Israel groups a little but US has a Anti Iran budget, we can call it even.\nIran and Israel relationship is too complicated, many famous Jews are from Iran, Jews are really free in Iran(Like everywhere else they are in Business), they have same enemies(Arabs don't like Iranians too, they call Iranians Ajam which means shallow people and Iranians can't forget what Arabs did when they capture Iran just once), Farsi is a spoken language in Israel(this one is from wikipedia) and many other facts that I can't remember now.\nAnyways I can't understand why Pakistan who has supported Bin Laden and Taleban can have nukes and Iran can't use it for peaceful energy making, Iran and West will find a political solution for enrichment problem as soon as West come with a good offer, Iranians know that US can't invade Iran right now and UN will not support any attack on Iran(because of good relations with China and Russia) so they are playing a political game.\nI personally recommend you not be affraid of any of 52,000 Iranians suiside bombers, this is just a show.\nEdit: Ok, this Iraqi dude made me to give some facts that are not related to the subject at all and I don't like to discuss them here but there is no other choices.\n1. During a declared war and against military forces there  anything except chemical and nuclear weapons isn't prohibited, it is not a terrorist act against civilians, I don't know what you've heard about Iranian suiside bombers during Iran-Iraq war, there was some going into mine territory actions to open the road for others because Saddam had a taste for land mines.\nI think our government was absolutely right about liberating Iraq from Saddam, that is exactly  why US army is in Iraq now, we wanted to liberate you from a heinous dictator that use chemical weapon against you(Like Shalamche where thousands of Iraqi civilians died with Saddam chemical weapons) and some years next did a great massacre against Shiie people .\nOf course I'm with Israelis, that's not my problem, that's not my people problem, I don't care what they do to Arabs there, most of my people don't, Arabs problems are for their own, I have told before, its a tradition for Iranians to say wipe out Israel, nothing has done and will be done. Of course Iran has missles which can reach Israel, it is not a secret, Iran has tested them and US has seen the test, I have told here, these weapons have political uses not military ones, Iranians don't want a war, Iran president knows it.\nAbout our people, we are a multi race country, Arabs are those who you know about, we have Kurds, Lors, Torks, bakhtiari, Afghans, Armani, Ashuri(these are remains of the ancient civilization of Ashur and they are christians) and other races that I can't remember now, there isn't any problem within us, I haven't heard of any racial violence.\nYou have named Ahwas, I am Half Khuzestani, of course from a special tribe there who are no

Oh, yasss!  When I was a'preachin' I didn't want my parishioners to think for themselves, I wanted them to listen to me and do as I told them God expected them to do.  I was an absolute dictator, and they blithely accepted the excrement I fed them and opened their mouths for more.  I got out of the preachin' business, got my head out of my behind and realized what I was doing and that there is no God - and my former parishioners remain as ignorant and unquestioning as before.  If I tried to tell them the ugly truths I learned about religion, they'd not just walk away,  they'd RUN away!  Fear.  It has worked for untold centuries.  It works today.  Just listen to George Bush prattle about the terr'ists about to rain down uponst us with WMDs and musshoom clouds 'n all that wickedness.  Almost half the electorate still falls for his scare tactics - witness how many voted Republican last Tuesday!  Naw, it ain't a natural byproduct, it's deliberately and cynically manufactured, this pervasive fear factor.  Looky there: terrists!  WMDs!  Nukular weapons!  BOO!

In the bible people did as the lord command them to do.  It was a different age and time then.  God no longer speaks to us except to our hearts.  I do not like war of any kind because the result is always death and grief.  However, at times war is going to happen because Americans are hated by everyone, even though we are always the one helping out other countries, coming to their aide in times of great despair and natural disasters, giving them food, shelter, medical equipment,  money,education etc.....I think its unfair to say Christians somehow justify war.  We put are faith in God and pray  for the best outcome.  No one wants to see a war or death.  However America needs to let people know we are not going to be pushed around by terrorist and those guys believe that their God is telling them to kill.  Which it's not God at all.  Man makes the decisions now to go to war by their actions not God.  But to me it is ungodly to sit back and watch a man, kill, rape, torture and kill his own people for his own power and selfish desires.

First of all, it has nothing to do with religous leaders.  That makes no sense at all. So obviously you are a moron.  It has nothing to do with a "few" U.S. citizens typing on the internet.  It is catching people in this country who want to destroy it and communicate with terrorists and evil people like the ones who killed 3,000 people on 9/11. I don't understand who you mean by cowards.  It is the complete opposite of coward if you are on the offensive and try to stop violence by terrorists before it happens.  Democrats want to sit back and wait for something to happen before taking action.  That is a coward.  So again you make no sense. Our military does put there life on the line everyday to protect punks like you and this country.  Information they get from NSA wiretapping helps them do this and to stop terrorists from killing innocent Americans.  Maybe even someone close to you.  Would you want to keep your "liberty" or have your mom killed in a terrorist attack when it could have been stopped by wiretapping?  Freedom of thought?  Go ahead and think whatever you want!  Type it on the internet.  Talk about it on the phone.  No one cares!  The government doesn't care.  But if you are talking to al Qaeda then yes they will care and take your a** down!  And if it weren't for that "little protection" you so casually talk about when thousands of Americans have died for it, you would not have your liberty or freedom.

Hey ST.  Maybe you need to stop accepting everything that the US government does as being something handed down from God on Mount Sinai.  And maybe you should stop asking "questions", only then picking answers that are to the effect of: "I totally agree with you!  GO USA!"\n\nedit - You are so easy to get riled up.  Okay here's a quick stab at it.  Lets say I murdered someone in an extremely brutal manner.  I cut their skin off and injected them with a colloidal heavy metal, then hooked them up to a car battery and let the metals cook them from inside their veins.\n\nNow lets say you murdered somebody, but you only shot them through the heart.\n\nI am guilty of murder.  You are guilty of murder.  Is your murder any less wrong?  No, of course not.  A death is a death.  Do you see the point I am making?  A crime is a crime is a crime.  Just because a crime appears to be lesser than another one doesn't mean anything.  Read a philosophy book before you start asking questions like this.\n\nIt is wrong for us to strip terrorists of their human rights.  An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind.  You would do well to remember that, Mr. Trooper.  Or do you think Ghandi was wrong for saying that?\n\nYou have very narrow views, Mr. Trooper.

Yes, I am scared of them, and angry at the same time.  I can understand, academically speaking, that they believe that their religion is the best, but this country has survived for hundreds of years with religious freedom as a guarantee of citizenship.  I read things that Fundamentalists have written or articles about things that they've said, and I get really worried.  I mean, what if my next-door neighbor is a Fundie and I don't know it and say something about being a Wiccan?  Will I find dead cats in my yard, as I have heard of happening to someone else?  Will my windows be broken with rocks, my family threatened, all because of my religion?  I thought that we were past that, but apparently we're not.\n\nFundies seem to think that if the world would all change to be like them, everything would be grand.  They just don't get that not everyone wants to be like them.  Not everyone wants prayer and bible classes in school; that's why we don't send our kids to private Christian schools, after all.  Not everyone wants to walk into a public building and see the Ten Commandments on a pedestal when there's no representation of their religion there to balance it out.\n\nI'm always worried that something will happen, maybe a seemingly-unimportant piece of legislation will get through, and all of a sudden the U.S. will be a Christian theocracy.  If that were ever to happen, I would pack up and get out of Dodge despite the fact that I'm in the military.  I'd try for concientious objector first, but if they suddenly made some rule about that, the U.S. becoming a religious state would definitely be enough to make me desert.  Sorry if that sounds awful, but it's true.  I would refuse to serve a theocracy of any sort, even my own religion!  Freedom of religion all the way!
