No wonder people wonder why some Arabs hate America so much when these are the people in power. They accuse us of trying to foist our Western thought and Christian idealogy onto them, and here is living proof of it.

Again, in their own words:

We work to press the claims of historic Christianity as the Biblical pattern of life everywhere. We work for godly cultural change across the entire spectrum of life.

And this is just ONE example, of ONE group.

Just a note to all of my "christian" "friends" who advise me to be "open minded" and to "accept other people's beliefs".

If I believe in "not accepting other ppl's beliefs", that qualifies as a part of my belief system. I wonder, then, would such a belief as I just describe fall under the mantle of protection and tolerance of "accepting other ppl's beliefs" ?? Would they accept my belief of not accepting others' beliefs? Would they not be hypocrites if they did not?

It's a circle jerk.

I think the problem with accepting other ppl's beliefs---for me at least---is that not all beliefs are equal. Some beliefs are incorrect. I think it is our duty to---as opposed to accepting---REJECT beliefs that aren't true/are harmful.

Which is what we've been doing. I think we need to keep it up.

Enjoyed your post.
