Dear Brothers and Sisters:
I abhor the anti-Islamic propaganda being spread by our false rulers. If we are all to survive as self respecting human beings we must reject the evil ones who try to control and manipulate us for their own selfish gain. When I was 17 years old I hitch hiked my way through Morocco, Algeria and Tunisia. I had no money but was treated with kindness, generosity and respect by all the people I met there with the exception of some Godless Algerians who had rejected their religion and accepted the tenets of communism. This personal experience has made me immune to the onslaught of fear mongering anti Muslum media we are subjected to as Americans for the last decade.
According to our new laws in this "free" country I am now an enemy of the government for making these statements and could probably be labled an "enemy combatant", jailed in a secret prison and tortured. Most Americans know in their heart of hearts that 9/11 was an inside job.
Peace be with you all

Well to the forum Gnostic. Nice to se you dont buy into anti-Islam propoganda. Enjoy yourself here.
"Were they created by nothing, or were they themselves the creators?
Or did they create the heavens and the earth?
Nay, they have no firm belief.”
[Holy Qur'an: 52:35-36]
Dear Brothers and Sisters:
Thankyou for the warm welcome, someday may we all recreate a world modeled on the tolerance and creativity of the kingdom of Al-Andalus.
Although I have labeled myself as a Christian, I am a gnostic Christian, our creed originated in Alexandria at the beginning of the Christian era and was a powerful branch of Christian thought until the Gnostics were stamped out by Constantine and his followers when he made Christianity the state religion and Christianity became just another control mechanism for the powerful. The poetry of Rumi is said to have Gnostic influences as well as the sufic movement. If any one is interested about Gnosticism I would be happy to discuss. I think it is where the west needs to go. I believe the only official Gnostic chuch with any organization in the world today was located in Irag, God only knows how they are getting on.
Peace,
Gnostic
welcome to the forum from an agnostic!
would like to hear more about gnosticism - maybe some time you could make an introductory post about it in the comparative religion section.
