Tavis Smiley is a moron. But he’ll be quick to tell you that he’s a Christian moron. Albeit, a Christian moron who believes his Christian brothers and sisters commit mass murder on a daily basis.
Here he is in a discussion with Ayann Hirsi-Ali:
Ayann Hirsi-Ali: Somehow this guy got in his mind that killing other people would be a great thing to do and he would be rewarded for it in the hereafter…
Smiley: But Christians do that every single day, in this country.
Ali: Do they blow people up…
Smiley: Yes, Christians, every day…people walk into post offices…people walk into post offices, they walk into schools, that’s what Columbine was. I mean, I could do this all day long. There are so many more examples of Christians — and I happen to be a Christian, that’s back to this notion of your idealizing Christianity in my mind, to my read — there are so many more examples, Ayaan, of Christians who do that than you could ever give me examples of Muslims who have done that inside this country in which you live and work.
Tavis is right, of course.
The papers are just full of stories about those rabid Christian extremists who gun down their loving Muslim brothers. When they’re not cutting their heads off, that is.

KKK or Ku Kux Klan. Is just an example. The US army murdering in Afghanistan & Iraq is yet another example. 911 was a conspiracy... known fact... was planned by non-Muslims against the Muslims...
Tell them all about it man! It is like for real. The 911 was a conspiracy planned by the New Jersey tourism committee. They were like so tired of New York getting all the good tourists and shit. So they made this plan with the Builderbergers and the lizard alien clones from Uranus. They got this plan to put small trace amounts of explosives in the polydent that was being used by all the old folks that lived on the 12th floor. Then the put their nefarious plan into action. They hired Carl Weathers to disguise himself as Gilian Anderson. Then he repelled from a helicopter and burst through this wall that was like made of brick. And this security gaurd was like "No way man!" And Carl Whithers was like "Yes way dude! I'm about to bring down chocolate rain in this mutha!" and he punched him out and then used his secret security clearance card to gain access to the master control room. From there he used a sophisticated computer algorythm to hack into the central mainframe computer and then he like totally turned down the thermostat on the twelfth floor. And like all the old people got real cold and they started teeth chattering which caused a chain reaction explosion do to all the explosives in their dentures and then it totally took down the twin towers. This is for real man. It is a known fact dude!
Good sarcasm. I hope only progs thumbed you down.
I had to use my reserve up thumb to put light on the humor. Where are these progs hiding when they're being sought? Hiding from the truth, as usual.
I particularly like the Muslim spelling of gingivitis for his first name!
I did too. I think this particular khan could elicit a few laughs in the manner employed here. Starting by blending gum disease with a historic mongol name, maybe not genius but plenty witty. Genghis might not have approved his own bad self, but he wasn't known for his great levity.
What did the radical Muslim have to say? Not baaaaaaaaaaaaaaadddd!
I thought he said: "Pay attention, I can only show you this ONE time."
Muslim people, I do have a question. When you reach the end of your life and you go for your final reward of 72 virgins, will you feel satisfied with that reward after serving Allah most of your life? And knowing that if he really was the creator of all things he could put together a better deal for your afterlife then just 72 virgins, might you not feel slighted just a little bit? One more thought; from what I have read and just the little I have researched it seems that Allah can be capricious at times. Will you feel slighted if some of those 72 virgins turn out to be the same sex as you? Just wondering. Good luck with all that.
Brother Daniel, 72 virgins are just a fraction of the reward. The Quran & the Hadeeth (teachings of the Prophet Muhammad (Peace & Blessings be upon him) describes the Paradise much more than just 72 virgins. Moreover, it does not describe that they are meant for sexual pleasures (alone). Some scholars have described owning 72 virgins as being honored.
Only in Islam could you have mysogyny fully implemented in "paradise".
You have to wonder what the 72 "virgins" did to be subjected to the company of an utterly hateful wretch for all eternity. To be in the company of a creature that thinks it was a good idea to butcher the innocent in order to achieve "paradise" for all eternity would be the very definition of hell.
We can only hope that their "virgins" are sheep, not that sheep are in any way deserving of such a fate.
Well, with the new death rates, death is not very far from us. Paradise or hell, you will know the reality. The lesser you concentrate on ridiculing Islam & Muslims & concentrating on the unexplained concept; Trinity, would be better for you.
It's one thing to tell a little white lie. It's another thing when your mouth moves so fast while telling lies that your lips fall off. "Hey Tavis...I think these are your lips lying on the floor. What's that? Why do I think they're yours? Because they're all the way over here and not even attached to your face anymore, and they're still telling lies!!
Crusades happened only because of the muslim invasion. They had captured the Holy Land, and were beheading, raping, and taking slaves. It was a series of defensive wars and get a bad name. The muslims have SO been whitewatshed in our history books! (You know that "golden age of islam"? All that stuff came from cultures they conquered. And no, Jews did not live happily in muslim lands.)
No one lived happily in muslim lands except Califs, Sultans, and other nobility.
Like socialism, Islamic countries are only good for those on the top of the social political and religious structures...
yes the crusades were both badly implemented AND because they were the losers the history was shaped by the victors and hence the intentions even if good in some cases were belittled.
I think this guy is brain dead, but that might be a prerequisite on his resume for the job he currently has. I'm not sure that the two teens that killed their classmates at Columbine were christians, in fact, if memory serves me, didn't one of them kill a young girl because she said she was a chrstian?
Yes they did. I remember something about their writing in books or something that they displayed anti christian and racist comments.
Yes, her name was Cassie. He held a gun to her head and said, "Do you believe in God?"
"Yes."
And he pulled the trigger.
They were evolution believing atheists. They were angry that natural selection hadn't weeded out the others in their classes because the human race has been weakening. "He doesn't deserve the face evolution gave him." One was quoted as saying about one of the more popular kids at the school. Whom they killed. They did it on Hitler's birthday too.
"Blaming guns for Columbine is like blaming spoons for Rosie O'Donald being fat" The kids broke 18 gun laws that day. 2 more wouldn't have made a difference.
I think my head is going to explode. Did he really mean that? Seriously... Columbine? Klebold and Harris were not Christians. Where in heaven's name did Smiley come up with that? He ought to be fired.
I guess in his mind anyone who is not a muslim and is white is a Christian. O'Reilly deemed this one of the foolish statements of the year...
KimmyQueen, I always look forward to your comments, the one you made at 9:40 was excellent.
Thank you! I think that you are on the mark (I agree with your statements around the blog) and a lot of your posts are very funny.
This is a perfect example of affirmative action, PC run-a-muck. He is as credible and intellectual as anyone on MSNBC.
Rodman disease. Do/say ANYTHING to get people to look at you or mention you name. It's a childs ploy to get attention. I never even heard of travis smily and, quite honestly, dont care if I ever do again. Better yet, I dont care what he says or thinks. Just another leftist bobblehead with nothing better to contribute than to crap on his own religion.
Before this I had no idea who this fool was.
