Seriously, we're all well aware that terrorists aren't limited to one country. Richard Reid is British. |
Hey that's a great way to make fun of my spelling!
Just to clarify; "ludicrous". There, I looked it up.

Especially after reading the following:
“They desire that you should disbelieve as they have disbelieved, so that you might be (all) alike; therefore take not from among them friends until they fly in Allah’s way; but if they turn back, then seize them and kill them wherever you find them, and take not from among them a friend or a helper … Then when the Sacred Months have passed, then kill the Mushrikűn (Jews) wherever you find them, and capture them and besiege them, and prepare for them each and every ambush.” (Sura IV.89)
“Kill those who join other gods with God wherever you may find them.” (Sura IX. 5-6)
"Fight and slay the Pagans, seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem" (Koran 9:5)
"Murder them and treat them harshly" (Koran 9:123)

There was never any proof that the terrorists on the planes that struck on 9/11 (obviously one of the main reasons for this) were middle eastern.
I appreciate that you are up to date on the Koran. As a matter of fact, I respect all people who have a good knowledge of all religions. HOWEVER, I do not know what these quotes have to do with racial profiling.
"Anyone arrogant enough to reject the verdict of the judge or of the priest who represents the LORD your God must be put to death. *Such evil must be purged from Israel."* (Deuteronomy 17:12 NLT)
"Suppose you hear in one of the towns the LORD your God is giving you that some worthless rabble among you have led their fellow citizens astray by encouraging them to worship foreign gods.* In such cases, you must examine the facts carefully.* If you find it is true and can prove that such a detestable act has occurred among you, you must attack that town and completely destroy all its inhabitants, as well as all the livestock.* Then you must pile all the plunder in the middle of the street and burn it.* Put the entire town to the torch as a burnt offering to the LORD your God.* That town must remain a ruin forever; it may never be rebuilt.* Keep none of the plunder that has been set apart for destruction.* Then the LORD will turn from his fierce anger and be merciful to you.* He will have compassion on you and make you a great nation, just as he solemnly promised your ancestors.* "The LORD your God will be merciful only if you obey him and keep all the commands I am giving you today, doing what is pleasing to him.""* (Deuteronomy 13:13-19 NLT)
"If your own full brother, or your son or daughter, or your beloved wife, or you intimate friend, entices you secretly to serve other gods, whom you and your fathers have not known, gods of any other nations, near at hand or far away, from one end of the earth to the other: do not yield to him or listen to him, nor look with pity upon him, to spare or shield him, but kill him.* Your hand shall be the first raised to slay him; the rest of the people shall join in with you.* You shall stone him to death, because he sought to lead you astray from the Lord, your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, that place of slavery.* And all Israel, hearing of this, shall fear and never do such evil as this in your midst."* (Deuteronomy 13:7-12 NAB)
"Suppose a man or woman among you, in one of your towns that the LORD your God is giving you, has done evil in the sight of the LORD your God and has violated the covenant by serving other gods or by worshiping the sun, the moon, or any of the forces of heaven, which I have strictly forbidden.* When you hear about it, investigate the matter thoroughly. If it is true that this detestable thing has been done in Israel, then that man or woman must be taken to the gates of the town and stoned to death." *(Deuteronomy 17:2-5 NLT)
"Make ready to slaughter his sons for the guilt of their fathers; Lest they rise and posses the earth, and fill the breadth of the world with tyrants."* (Isaiah 14:21 NAB)
Bottom line? You can quote scripture until you're blue in the face. How many christians do you know that follow what I quoted above? Do you think every town that doesn't have a christian is attacked by the christians?
I see the parties I listed (Gentiles, albinos, ninjas, and children) as being just as foolish to discriminate against as the Muslims. They are equally appropriate because they are all absurd. I hope that clears it up for you.
