Modern Israel has nothing to do with the Israel of the Old Testament....The Hebrews time as God's Children ended when He allowed the Romans to destroy Jerusalem...... What they did in the Old Testament was done to keep the bloodline to the Messiah pure......so yes, it was part of keeping His chosen people safe by eliminating the threats and those who were trying to conquer and kill them.........A good example that we should be following today......

I have READ the koran several times.....I can comprehend what I am reading quite well.....

Jehovah wasn't trying to convert anyone in the Old Testament....He was keeping His chosen people safe until the time He chose to send His Son into the world.......trying to compare islime to the Old Testament is apples to oranges......

No, the verses taken from the koran are very much IN context......the ones taking it OUR of context are the ones claiming that it doesn't teach violence.....

They were MUSLIMS......they were terrorists....yes, they were following the teachings of that false god and his pedophile, rapist, murdering prophet mohammed......and it was in between 1776 and 1900.....a counterexample that shows your thesis that there were no problems with muslims between those years to be invalid.......

you have taken that passage out of context.........it is the finale of the Parable of the Ten Minas, in which Jesus is showing symbolically what will happen to those on the Day of Judgement who have been unfaithful.......try again......

More legitimate than wikipedia.......

[Hidden Content] I guess they didn't teach you about the Barbary Pirates in your history class......:P

There were no Christians in the OLD TESTAMENT.........

So WHY allow them into our nation, then????

Wikipedia is not a LEGITIMATE source of information because anyone can write anything they want in an entry........

That's what I thought....sounds like good policy to me.......

Doesn't Japan refuse to allow muslims to immigrate to their country????

Why? Because some pinko wingnut from CNN says so???? While I will not be voting for Trump (he is a democrat, and a liberal one to boot), I do agree with many of the things he is saying in order to get votes.....including his views on the "media". [Hidden Content]

No, it is simple common sense........

Exactly....remember it was the "experts" who said the world was flat......it was the "experts" who said man would never fly.....it was the "experts:" who said the sound barrier couldn't be broken.....it was the "experts" who said we would never put a man on the moon.....and it was the "experts" who said it was physically impossible for a human to run a sub-4 minute mile.......I tend to disregard the "experts" and make my own call on things......

Laurence Tribe is either incompetent or an outright liar.....HERE is Article 6, Section 3: The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the Members of the several State Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution; but no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States. Says nothing at all about immigrant status........try again, though, this is entertaining.......as for the Post, To HELL with "International Law".......

So just because some pinko on NBC or the Washington Post SAYS that it's unconstitutional makes it so???? W R O N G !!!!! It does not violate EITHER of those Amendments because the people being talked about are NOT CITIZENS.......Again, show me in The Constitution, please, where we are required to accept enemy combatants into our midst......I'd also like you to show me the part where we are required to take ANY immigrants in at all.....

VERY basic....and you are wrong on this.......Show me, please, just WHERE in the Constitution that the government is required to take in any immigrants at all???? I won't hold my breath waiting, Mr. Basic Understanding.......

The FIRST AMENDMENT say that no law shall be made ESTABLISHING a religion or PROHIBITING THE FREE EXERCISE of religion.....nowhere does it say that we have to allow enemy combatants into our country or any "refugees" or "immigrants".......keeping muslimes out of this nation does not in any way violate the FIRST AMENDMENT.........

The FIRST AMENDMENT does not require us to allow the enemy into the gates.........

Trump is absolutely correct on this one.......
