Mohammed Über Alles!

Hagia Sophia, Pre-Jihad

~ ITEM: WikiPedia — Hagia Sophia

Michael Coren on Swiss minarets – Part 1

Parts 2 ~ 3 ~

~ ITEM: Turkey’s Erdogan: “The Minarets Are Our Swords“; “Let’s All Ban Minarets“; Hypocritical Muslims Can’t Blame Swiss: Tawfik Hamid

~ ITEM: The Swiss have struck a blow for the preservation of their culture. A culture which does not include minarets

~ ITEM: Fitzgerald: Ali Gomaa and that strange thing, the Golden Rule

~ FOR ALMOST 1000 YEARS, THE HAGIA SOPHIA– or The Church of the Holy Wisdom of God– was the great jewel of Constantinople, and the Eastern Roman Empire. It’s still there, now surrounded by minarets and copies of itself (like The Blue Mosque). Unlike most other local churches, it was not turned into a barn or a neglected ruin.

As an aggressive architectural principle, no other non-Muslim religious building is supposed to be higher than a mosque and its minarets– hence, right beside the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, a minaret not only stands taller than the dome of the church, but blasts the 5-times daily insistent call that Allah is God, and Mo is his prophet (the Islamic creed, such as it is).

Holy noise from giant erections, proclaiming Islamic supremacy and reminding others of their inferiority? It’s all original Islam, given new nasty impetus by militant Muslim immigrants, many of whose buildings are funded by offshore oil money.

In that sense, the minaret is a supremacist middle finger against other religions and societies. Since Islam is a politico-military religion, there can be no church & state, no proper sphere for anything but religious law. So says the current PM of the former capital of the Byzantine Empire, finally conquered by that religion in 1453– Turkey’s Erdogan: “The Minarets Are Our Swords“.

After all– the most symbolic relics of Muhammed are not an empty tomb or bloody cross of sacrifice, but a rack of swords. Said old Mo’ –

“Submit and testify that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is the apostle of Allah before you lose your head.” (Ibn Ishaq 814)

Before we weep for the Swiss Muslims, let’s remember that when it comes to Islamist immigrants, we’re not talking about multiculti nice folks, but supremacist invaders establishing no-go zones, sharia law, and the inevitable giant middle fingers broadcasting loud religious messages 35 times weekly.

It’s an upraised sword deliberately pointed at the heart of Western civilization, Christianity, and freedom. As we see in England, Holland, France, and elsewhere, these are not the generally peaceful integrationist Muslim immigrants glad to be in a free country of yesteryear, but stealth jihadis seeking the submission of the world to their brand of Islam.

Speaking as a Christian & cleric, Christian steeples are symbolic of many things, but particularly of the incarnation– the union of heaven and earth in Christ Jesus, heaven and earth, divine and human nature united in him.  The bells? The far-off song of heaven itself, playing the songs of salvation, based on the best of art, architecture, music, and holy poetry. Further, steeples are reminders of the presence of God in the midst of ordinary life– even amidst the business of the earthly, we may lift up our eyes and hearts to higher things, in the visible reminder of the steeples, like sign-posts on our pilgrimage to heaven.

As Kathy Shaidle puts it, “Minarets are not the “moral equivalent” of church steeples. They are the moral equivalent of burning crosses”, or– even more appropriately, swastikas, given the Nazi-Islamist links over the past 60+ years, carried into the supremacist present in news items such as “AP: Muslim countries seek blasphemy ban“.

And let’s have militant Muslims protesting for allowing giant Christian steeples with loud bells (and attached churches) in the heart of every Muslim capital. What’s that? No hope in Islamic infidel-infested hell, you say? Than it’s not actually morally equivalent, now is it?

Sorry, dear free-speecher allies like Professor Mark Mercer, but it’s just not the same.

The entire issue is actually about us, though: our loss of faith, principle, and even the basic drive to have and raise children. As Deborah Gyapong reminds us: “I’m not crazy about the ban, because it still skirts the real issue. And the real issue is that our civilization is in rampant decay.” ~

When People Become Nuisances

~ ITEM: Down syndrome babies and eugenic hate

~ ITEM: Answers to 12 pro-euthanasia arguments

Vice is a monster of so frightful mien,
As, to be hated, needs but to be seen;
Yet seen too oft, familiar with her face,
We first endure, then pity, then embrace.

– Alexander Pope (An Essay on Man: Epistle 2)

~ REMEMBER– CANADA IS SUPERIOR. That’s why if we allow medical murder, it won’t get abused ever at all, like it has everywhere else. Retards, the feeb, depressed, pre-born, imperfects, Down-Syndromers, spazzes, veggies, the inconvenient and nuisance and rich elderly mother who just keeps hanging on and wasting the family fortune.. no, we’re so much better than the British, the Dutch, and suchlike.

We noble Canuckis never end up with doctors, nurses, or people with access to murder-materials bumping people off they felt sorry for; people undergoing medical tests, cancer treatment, or painful illness. There’d be no mortally ill, deformed, or handicapped newborn baby left to die alone in a room somewhere. Would we?

Nobody in Canada will need “Please Don’t Kill Me” cards like many people carry in Holland now, to prevent the 1/3 of ‘unauthorized’ killings that happen in their medical system with nobody’s permission. Depressed people? Kids having trouble in school? The unemployed and miserable poor? The homeless? The very old? Let’s clean up the inferiors? We’d never go down that dark and haunted road with millions of ghosts already haunting us? Would we?

This is Canada.. we’d never let people die waiting for treatment, sleep in a hospital hallway, or go home and wait for life-saving surgery, transplants, or other long lists of long-delayed medicine. We’d never rationalize care and play with people’s lives as a matter of dollars or paperwork, would we? We’d never allow money, uppityness, social status, likelihood of lawyers, or blind luck effect equal access to equal treatment, would we?

Would we? And why not, exactly? We already do many of these things, and just don’t talk about it.

Much of the ancient world and many societies today already do these things. If we lose the vision of each soul as God’s child, of infinite worth, and well worth our best efforts and technology and comfort (the heavenly vision that invented our modern medicare, social welfare, universal education, and the rest), then absolutely anything is possible, and more than likely.

Once we allow some people to have ultimate power over the lives of others, there are no limits, whatever glorified process or alleged safeguards we put in place with solemn promises and official approval. If I can declare someone not human, or forbid a disliked class their freedoms and equal treatment, then I am myself become a ’superhuman’ monster, and making our society into a monstrousity.

We must oppose the so-called euthanasia death-cult with all our power, just as we must oppose the abortion business. Once a culture has e,embraced death, it begins to die, and become putrid and gangrenous and decayed within.. and we the inhabitants of a rotted corpse.

POTUS & Co. Disgusted With Troops?

Chris Matthews calls West Point the “Enemy Camp”

~ ITEM: Obama Dithered. 116 US Soldiers Died; Setting up our military to fail

~ ITEM: “War President” Obama’s West Point Afghanistan speech didn’t go over so well in Germany

~ ITEM: America Founded on the Principles of Honoring God

~ ITEM: Obama’s speech on Afghanistan reminded me of Churchill in one sense – it was dead

~ ITEM: At the eve of POTUS speech to West Point on the Afghanistan war, the media peanut gallery suddenly starts heaving old candy wrappers at the Oval Office

~ THE OBLIGATORY MEALY-MOUTHED apology later ensued, but the thing to note is that the media & POTUS are in bed, and this observer guesses this is the Official View™. The military tend to be socially & politically more conservative, more patriotic, and more committed to America– that’s why dictators always must account for the troops: Hitler got his personal oath of loyalty, and Stalin ruthlessly purged the generals and office classes, promoting ideologues in their places.

Hence The Obama’s recent goofy speech on Afghanistan, which left the audience yawning. They know who POTUS Barack Carter-Clinton II is and what he stands for, and it’s not America the beautiful, the republic, the land of the free and home of the brave.. or even the same old variously messy America of the last 50 years.

The American military? Stalwart warriors against dictatorships, communism, Islamism, and natural disasters for decades.

For pro-Islam pro-Commie pro-bullying Obamunism, what’s not to hate? Eventually, Obama will screw over everyone, including himself. That’s what sin & evil does, whether it’s him or us. ~

“The most challenging of these questions emerge when after one agrees to seek, he considers the Nature of God. Is God an impersonal spirit of “order” in the universe? Or is God more? Is there a God personal to me with Whom I can have a relationship? Here is where people begin to bristle. You will see it. Many get angry at the mere suggestion. They are lost kids, who think they know.”

‘Tis The Season…

So Anyway…

December 1, 2009 by binky

Grmph.. zzZzzz..

 

Dear Ever-Growing Army of Pre-Dead Minions:

(1) It’s the Bink’s Birfday today. Yay me.

Binkses' Amazon.com Wish List

(2) In discussion with the kindly infidel wench Xanthippa, we both note that the hangover-effect from the recent odd flu has gone on for weeks. I’m still weak, tired, and not much up for blogging.

(3) Despite my intense bloggers-guilt and desire to put good stuff out there, there are currently so few workable hours in my day that there’s almost no time for bloggage. Apologies, but that’s reality at Binks HQ.

(4) Keep checking the blog-roll, re-read old Steynians (there are 400+, after all, in the archives), and keep sending good wishes and prayers this way, so as to speed my re-energification.

You’re all the reason I do this, so thanks for your patience, visits, and understanding.

Steyn’s Hot New Album

~ ITEM: Sweet Gingerbread Man…as you’ve never heard it before by Jessica Martin & Mark Steyn

~ WHEN HE’S not isolated in his fortress of hate, blendering kittens and spewing foul invective against helpless minorities, Mark Steyn has a curious habit: he likes to sing. The latest offering he sent along to the Binks HQ (he’s generous that way) is his latest Christmas mini-album, with he and Jessica Martin duelling voices.

We’ve got his take on Sweet Gingerbread Man, Merry Little Christmas, Running on Eggnog, last year’s Marshmallow World as a bonus track, Santa Is Comin’ To Town, and a great reprise of Gingerbread Man to top off this Yuletide feast.

First off– since his 2008 debut, Mark’s had some good vocal training, and you can year it in the new vibrato, clear notes, and bouncy lyrical style. Second, the songs aren’t just a one-off novelty item: as a notorious ‘former DJ’ with a deep love for music, it shows in the songs, and selections chosen. As I listened to the songs, it evoked the Christmas spirit, and I naturally assumed the family would be listening to this amongst the other holly jolly tunage this Christmas– it’s that good, and that fun.

Get one for your friends & fambly this Christmas!

Oh, and Mark crooning the eternal bossa nova hit ‘Girl From Ipanema’? Gotta get us more of that goodness! ~

In Praise Of Beeb Historian Michael Woods

~ ITEM: Amazon.com: Michael Wood

~ ITEM: Michael Wood (historian) – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Interview with Michael Wood

~ GOD GRANT US HONEST INQUIRY, and a longing heart. So over the past 5+ years I’ve become a huge fan of Brit historian writer & presenter Michael Wood. He wrItes and does wonderful onsite research (and books) in interesting topics of abiding interest, and always brings something new and important to the table.

Series like Legacy – The Origins of Civilization; In Search of the Trojan War; In the Footsteps of Alexander The Great: A Journey from Greece to Asia; Shakespeare; The Story of India; In Search of England: Journeys into the English Past; Michael Wood: In Search of Myths and Heroes; Conquistadors– in his thoughtful and interesting approach, he summarizes without over-simplifying the current state of the historical debate, while visiting the sites in question, and then producing damed fine books and TV as a result.

History– like any discipline– can be a whore and a sock puppet if ideologues are running the show, or when academic moods skew the evidence, and the latest outrageous theory gets all the attention. Michael Wood at least takes you along on his journey to see what might be seen, introducing original texts and evidence, and leaves you knowing more and feeling exited after the trip.

His fine In the Footsteps of Alexander The Great: A Journey from Greece to Asia reminds us that in pre-modern societies, the past and present are one, and united in the people who remember: so Alexander is a present figure in song and history and memory for many millions of people along the route of his conquests, and in his homeland. Our trashy modern idea that the past is dustbin, benightedness, and forgettable? Seen as the amnesiac nonsense it really is, where Lady Gaga and Michael Jackson encompass our present and past.

Whether academic or student or beginner in history– buy Michael Woods’ DVDs and read his books– you won’t be disappointed. ~

Umpty Gabillions: Just A Statistic

~ ITEM: Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, and Federal Trust Funds

~ ITEM: Why homemade gifts are better than store-bought

~ ITEM: Many in the no-longer-so-loyal opposition to the Obama juggernaut of taking the wrecking ball to the Republic fret about how to slow or stop it. Here’s the news: You can’t

~ IN THE SHELL GAME that is 2009 U.S. book-keeping, a trillion is real money, but a billion is just a statistic. Could the Obama administration– full of tax-cheats, ideological pirates, and crazy persons– even pretend to know where all the money is, went, or is going?

We already see that the current administration is engaged in an economic war against American capitalism, seeking to cripple and humble the U.S.A. to make it more amenable to U.N. and internationalist pressures. Diversions allow for plunder: who can say what the actual debt is? What the Fed is really up to? How much Obama’s pie-in-the-sky socialist promises have and will cost the American economy, taxpayers, and future generations.. nor how much ACORN, the SEIU and cronies are milking from the system while everybody is in a panic. There’s just no telling, and the crooks are running the till.

We’re Christmas shopping this year… but not very much. How about you? Trust the market, your stocks, your job-security enough to load up any needless debt right now? Us neither.

Looks like a way slow ho ho, at least economically speaking. It’s The Obama Who Stole Christmas!

Of course, from a spiritual perspective, gifts & wealth and worldly matters come and go: but sometimes the Stuff can distract from the state of our souls, the central relationships of our lives, and the lasting things that make a difference.

Perhaps– albeit unintentionally, like most things he does– Mr. President has given America a chance to step back from the blinding blizzard of glut to remember those better things, and why America was founded, how she should work, and what serious tasks lie before faithful citizens at home, not to mention in the world that The Bowinator Obama has left to go all free-for-all. ~

Barack HUSSEIN Obama?

~ ITEM: VARIOUS VIDS: Video results for obama muslim

~ ITEM: Confirmed: Barack Obama Practiced Islam :: Daniel Pipes

~ THERE’S A VIDEO making the rounds (we had it up a post or three ago) featuring B.H. Obama making various statements. The video suggests that POTUS is a closet Muslim, or something.

Does it it matter? But of course.

With this guy, yes. He’s psychologically challenged, narcissistic, and a divided personality. Black/ White; Bastard/ Hero; Muslim/ Radical Christian; Indonesian/ American; self-lover/ self-hater. Obama is a puzzle to the world, because there’s no ‘There’ there in many respects. Hence the indecisiveness the grandiose language, the style over substance problem.

Certainly he is the most po-Muslim and pro-Islamist American President ever, and has allowed the widespread infiltration of government and advisors, together with a self-defeating pro-Islamist pro-terror foreign policy.. even as he wafflingly continues Bush’s war in Afghanistan.

Along with all the other impending disasters thanks to the Obama misadministration, the current phase of the Jihad is going rather well, all in all, for the stealth-Jihad side of the civilizational war currently underway all around us.

And that– whether he’s Muslim or not– can be laid at the feet of apostate Muslim B.H. Obama. ~

A Binks Movie Review

~ ITEM: To End All Wars; and Paradise Road

~ A MUST-SEE MOVIE– To End All Wars, starring Robert Carlyle, Kiefer Sutherland, and a host of other good folks. It’s based on a true story, of POWs in a Japanese prison camp, forced to help construct the infamous “Railway of Death” from Thailand to Burma. Each man is confronted with spiritual, philosophical, and personal choices in the midst of terrible suffering.

The movie also unabashedly examines the role of faith, and the search for the true, the good, and the beautiful in the midst of the world. The prisoners set up a chapel and a school for philosophy, Shakespeare, and fine arts, and most of the POWs join. In spirit not unlike the true story of Paradise Road starring Glenn Close, and a young first-timer actress named Cate Blanchett, this movie demonstrates the power of the human spirit, faith, and perseverance– and the innate power of the foundational thought and faith of Western Civ.

As such, it’s not just the usual heartwarming victory over adversity tale, but a much deeper accounting of the true, the good, and the beautiful.

Watch it, says the Binks. ~

Of Elephants & Christmas

~ ITEM: APOLOGETICS 101: How to defend Christian exclusivism from the challenge of religious pluralism

There are hundreds of paths up the mountain,
all leading in the same direction,
so it doesn’t matter which path you take.
The only one wasting time is the one
who runs around and around the mountain,
telling everyone that his or her path is wrong.

Ramakrishna Paramahamsa, Hindu teacher

~ ITEM: God is an Elephant? Examining the Blind Men and the Elephant philosophic argument in philosophy of religion

~ ITEM: Elephant in the room – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

~ A VERY OLD STRAND of anti-Christian apologetic goes thus: there are many paths up the mountain to god, the gods, or the divine– how can you say yours is the best, or the only way? Surely that is very arrogant. Another version of this is the old elephant in the living-room analogy, where each blind man feels something different, and assumes it’s a snake, a wall, a tree-trunk, whatever. Gotcha.

Since it’s coming onto Advent and the Christmas, it’s worth revisiting these objections to Christian claims.

First, the pagan mistakes the order of revelation, and the nature of religion, in assuming the assertion of Jesus Christ that he was God’s only begotten Son, Indeed, the human soul aspires for the divine (or substitutes thereof), and many world religions can be seen as fulfilment of human aspiration. The Christian says, rather, that God has let down a ladder to the mountain-top, by revealing himself to humanity in his Son, that all who believe in him might be saved. It’s a earth-ward motion from God, not another human motion towards heaven (the many paths). For the problem is not mountain-tops, but getting up to heaven: and for that you need love, and a living wind from heaven.

God has revealed himself: so the Christian cannot be arrogant in refusing to pass on the word about the Word made flesh, who dwelt amongst us. It’s not arrogance, but humility to share what God has done, however frail or proud some Christians are or have been in doing so. Indeed, Christianity understands itself as the proper and true fulfilment of every religion, and all human hope, fear, need, and aspiration– and philosophy.

“…according to Plato the truly just man must be misunderstood and persecuted in this world; indeed, Plato goes so far as to write: ‘They will say that our just man will be scourged, racked, fettered, will have his eyes burned out, and at last, after all manner of suffering will be crucified.’ This passage, written four hundred years before Christ, is always bound to move a Christian deeply.”

~ (Ratzinger, 353) ~

As for the elephant, well– it’s an elephant. Even if the describe it wrongly, it’s still an elephant and not some other object or animal. Indeed, unless the blind men were raised in some far country where they’d never met or learnt of such, they’d figure it out.. or ask a local, preferable one with eyesight. Or notice it breathing and farting and getting impatient with being prodded. Never met a blind [person that clueless before, and no-- some of my best friends aren't blind people, sorry.

Whoa there, Nelly-- again, the untested assertion behind the blind men and elephant analogy is that we are all spiritually blind, and can only go by our best guesses, because-- you guessed it-- all religions ar fundamentally equal and all say the same thing and we should be nice and recycle and all that.. except, they don't. Just ask Major Hasan, or the Chief Rabbi of Great Britain, or the Dalai Lama, or Pope Benedict XVI, or even sub-sects within each religion.

To claim we are all blind is in fact to beg the question, and arrogantly presume to have answered the question beforehand... it's a fancy version of "So, are you still beating your wife?" It's a sly cheat, however 'holy' the source. It's to say "The only true religion is that which says there's no true religion." Thus, it's also a contradiction, as in: It's absolutely true that there are no absolute truths. Busted!

The question of Christianity is a who, not a what, nor a philosophical puzzle: love him or hate him or in between him, Jesus of Nazareth is the central personage of the last 2000 years of human history, and still confronts those who encounter him with the same question he asked St. Peter: "Who do you say that I am?" And if-- as Christians claim-- that unlike any other religious leader ever, he is eternally and divinely alive despite death and the grave, he actually asks each soul sooner or later, and will not let us go unless we finally and ultimately insist.

That's the big deal behind the wrappings, the converted paganism, the holly jolly music and feasting and all that-- God born as a baby, that we might become gods through him, and partake of his divine nature.

So ring the bells of Christmas, bring the figgy pudding, and joyfully sound the carols, for joy to the world, the Lord has come. Ask any convert, any suffering Christian in Hindu or Moslem or Communist lands, anyone who is spiritually alive and more than a sleepy cultural Christian, and they will tell you... as I just tried to do, in my own poor and inadequate way. Because he lives, I live also-- and that has made all the difference. ~

Climate Scamming

“An hilariously bizarre situation is happening in the wake of the growing Climategate scandal. Many of the mainstream media stories about global warming are simply pretending it doesn’t exist. Perhaps they feel that by ignoring Climategate entirely that it will just go away.
