Scholars Plan U.S. First Four-Year Islamic College

PLAINSBORO, N.J. — A group of American Muslims, led by two prominent scholars, is moving closer to fulfilling a vision of founding the first four-year accredited Islamic college in the United States, what some are calling a "Muslim Georgetown."

Advisers to the project have scheduled a June vote to decide whether the proposed Zaytuna College can open in the fall of next year, a major step toward developing the faith in America.

If Americans keep sitting back, and allow something like this to come to fruition, we will soon be as much over-run with the Islamic hordes as is Europe. All of Europe and Great Britain are ripe for Muslim domination, and we are not far behind!

Imam Zaid Shakir and Sheik Hamza Yusuf of California have spent years planning the school, which will offer a liberal arts education and training in Islamic scholarship. Shakir, a California native, sees the school in the tradition of other religious groups that formed universities to educate leaders and carve a space in the mainstream of American life.

Shakir sees the school in the tradition of other religious groups that formed universities to educate leaders and carve a space in the mainstream of American life? The last time I checked, Oral Roberts University, Abilene Christian University, Bob Jones University, Southern Methodist University, American Jewish University, Institute for Christian and Jewish Studies and many other fine Christian and Jewish colleges didn't support the death of ALL who don't follow them and submit to their religious views.

"As a faith community our needs aren't any different than the needs of any other faith community," Shakir told the Council for the Advancement of Muslim Professionals, as he sought donations at a recent conference near Princeton, N.J. "As Muslims, we need to develop institutions to allow us to perpetuate our values."

Your VALUES?? Death to Infidels?? Homicide bombings against those that don't fit into a neat little compartment of your *religion of death*? The domination of women and their submission to Islam? Sexual relations with children?? Those VALUES? Those are values that I can't and won't accept, and it's not a matter of religious freedom, it's a matter of right and wrong!

"Who will talk for the religion?" Shakir asked. "We have to train a generation."

I suppose so, I mean, where else, other than the USA, can a Muslim school open, with full accreditation, and teach a generation to HATE the Infidel and urge their pupils to carry the word of Islam to all the world, and then use human bombs to kill those that don't accept it??

As much as I am all for freedom of religion, I have a serious problem with a *religion* that calls for the murder of those that don't submit, and any so-called religion that supports, and encourages pedophilia.

I am fairly certain that the usual suspects will once again call me an intolerant racist and a bigot, but that's the price you pay for standing up for the things that you believe in. We are, in MY opinion, also deserving of freedom FROM religion as well, these people, the radicals of Islam, and Muslims as a whole, don't see it that way. For me, submission to Islam, or any other religion that I don't choose of my own free will, is totally out of the question!

Free will and Islam are words that do NOT go together...
