Rejecting others based on details such as race or religion shows a lack of intelligence.

No it doesn't.

Maybe a lack of political correctness or the inability to assimilate but there's certainly no lack of intelligence.

Rejecting others based on details such as race or religion shows a lack of intelligence.

No it does not. A person's religion informs their entire worldview. You cannot separate a person's morals, politics, and worldview from their religion. It makes perfect sense to exclude someone due to their religion.

Hating others based on details such as race or religion shows a lack of intelligence.

Who said anything about hating anyone due to their race or religion? I don't know why you're bringing that up.

On what basis do you presume that her faith disqualifies her? Simply because she is not Christian?

Yes. That is enough reason for me.

[Dr. Dog]

Then I would consider it intolerant and hateful, and without basis in reason.

Intolerant? Maybe. But what is wrong with that? Why would I be tolerant of false religions that worship idols and turn people away from God?

Hateful? Absolutely not.

She worships the same God, whether you agree or not.

Unless she accepts Christ as her Savior, as the Son of God, as the second person of the Trinity. Then, no we do not worship the same God.

It seems that you might be trying to be divisive to feel superior.

And it seems you love to play the victim card with your "everyone is racist and hates me because I'm Hindu" BS.

Curious what will happen to the bill - https://www.congress.gov/bill/114th-congress/house-bill/4108/ - and if we ever hear from Tulsi Gabbard on this subject

Thomas Massie signed on as a cosponsor.

Here's the text of the straightforward bill:

SECTION 1. PROHIBITION ON PROVISION OF ASSISTANCE TO SYRIAN OPPOSITION GROUPS AND INDIVIDUALS.

Notwithstanding any other provision of law, funds available to the Central Intelligence Agency, the Department of Defense, or any other agency or entity of the United States involved in intelligence activities, or to the National Security Council or its staff may not be obligated or expended to provide assistance, including training, equipment, supplies, stipends, construction of training and associated facilities, and sustainment, to any element of the Syrian opposition or to any other Syrian group or individual seeking to overthrow the government of the Syrian Arab Republic, unless, after the date of the enactment of this Act, funds are specifically authorized to be appropriated and appropriated by law for such purpose.

America needs more bold leaders like Rep. Tulsi Gabbard.

Current puppets of neocons owners are a joke.

Hilo Tribune gave her a big article this week with the OP tag... since when does the Hilo Tribune give a big article to sane ideas? Beware.

(and again, I hope my concern is a blundering mistake)
