You can do what you want. Jews, Christians, and Muslims all worship the God of Abraham.

Muslims even acknowledge Jesus as a prophet and he appears in the Quran.

It is really not that easy. Much more than the three all worship the same God.

This mantra has been used by Muslims to get their foot in the door of less than hospitable areas of the world.

Don't buy into it. Do your own homework then decided for yourself.

Oh God AP news cry me a fricking river

Do the bleeding hearts ever tire of their endless whining? Is defending a child predator and murderer the new hill some want to die on?

Your statement is funny considering how many pedophile Christians you can read about who are in positions of authority at churches.


Oh you must have missed the OT memo.

When a heinous act is committed by a member of the Islam faith, it’s relresentative of the entire religion.

When a heinous act is committed by a member of the Christian faith, it’s just a bad individual and in no way representative of the entire religion.

It’s a shame the state of Alabama didn’t follow through with a traditional Sharia Law execution and slowly beheaded this vermin so he could praise Allah as he was choking on his own blood.

The result would be the same either way.

Christianity isn't based on praying to a pedo and it certainly doesn't preach it. The church doesn't have a pedophilia problem anyway, it has a gay problem that's found it's way into the church. And those pedos also deserve the death penalty.


I really hope this is a joke.

If it’s not, please don’t procreate. You’re clearly someone who gets their news via Facebook memes.

Ray had argued Alabama’s execution procedure favors Christian inmates because a Christian chaplain employed by the prison typically remains in the execution chamber during a lethal injection, but the state would not let his imam be there in the room.


i think we either need to say, no religious orders in the room, or, the individual can choose which one he wants.

To allow a christian chaplain in, but not an Islam imam in, is pretty pathetic.

Either way, the guy is being executed, so has nothing to do with being "soft" on crime.

Did you actually bother to read the court's opinion?

I read the article in the OP which discussed it.

quote:

The 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on Wednesday had stayed the execution over the religious arguments, but the U.S. Supreme Court allowed it to proceed in a 5-4 decision Thursday evening. Justices cited the fact that Ray did not raise the challenge until Jan. 28 as a reason for the decision.

Justice Elena Kagan wrote in a dissent that she considered the decision to let the execution go forward “profoundly wrong.”


quote:

Durham said did not know of any other state where the execution protocol calls for a Christian chaplain to be present in the execution chamber.


As I said, treat all religions the same. I'm fine with no religious person being allowed in the chamber, but if they are going to allow a Christian, they need to allow any religion.

I have no doubt that this prisoner was simply throwing appeals at the wall to see what sticks.

 suppose that the chaplain on staff is also used for general population inmates. 
They need rehabilitation, as well. And, regardless of anyone's views on religion, I imagine that these prison chaplains are very instrumental in whether or not a future released prisoner can make it on the outside. Gives them hope instead of despair.


I have no issue with the general population finding hope and salvation through ministry. In fact, I would encourage it. My take, however, is that any preacher etc. worth their salt is going to spread the word because its the right thing to do. Having someone getting paid by the tax payer to do it...nope. like I said, I get the reasoning behind tbe military. But prison is a stocked pond for the "fishers of men". Just my .02.

Read the court's opinion. Not the news article pushing a narrative by only reporting quotes from the dissent.

Or just read this thread.

SCOTUS.

Or read page 2 of this thread like I said. Multiple posters pointed out the reason why the chaplain was allowed in the execution chamber and the imam wasn't, even though the imam was in the witness room next door and met with him prior to entering the execution chamber.
