Dear Jane

Jane Gilvary recently expressed inconspicuous disgust towards President Obama. This comes as no surprise to anybody. He is holding a "Summit on Entrepreneurship", which is intended to instill entrepreneurial ideals into attendees. But the main source of controversy is that all attendees must be Muslim.

Seems pretty harmless to me, but to Gilvary this comes as an outrage to her Fox News/ Teabagger ideals. She claims these ideas should not be spread to people that blew up financial centres in New York on September 11, 2001. I wouldn't want to give these people education either, but there is a flaw in her logic. Gilvary seems to assume that all Muslims are terrorists, just like all Christians are Aryan-supremacists, right? If she wants to see all Muslims as Osama bin Laden, why can't Muslims see her as Adolf Hitler?

Secondly, Gilvary seems to be stuck on this notion that Islam is not a religion of peace. While this isn't entirely false, she needs to take a look at her own religion. While Jesus may preach peace, Christianity is by no means a peaceful religion. Just like how the majority of Muslims are peaceful, so are the majority of Christians. But no one can refute the violence of the Crusades, the Spanish Inquisition, persecution by other sects of Christians during the reformation and counter-reformation, the colonial conquests, and the African slave trade.

Christians insist on spreading their religion by forcing others to convert. If I may, I will use the signature "Gilvary Bible quote".

"And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled." (Luke 14:23)

Meanwhile, the Qu'ran states:

"There is no compulsion in religion." ( 2:256 )

It shouldn't take a rocket-scientist, or an 11th grade AP English teacher to realize that Christians are the ones that ruthlessly spread their religion, not Muslims. But then again, this women did likely vote for the Bush's, a family which has great business interests and friendship with another notorious family, the bin Laden's.

A Letter of Concern

Recently I received a letter from an American counterpart about the picture on the right. He was concerned that White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs is acting un-American. The letter reads...

"Dear Navin,

Our country is under siege. The Canadians are coming the Canadians are coming. One if by land, two if by sea. Don't tread on us Canada. Give us liberty, or give us death.

Sincerely, Uncle Sam."

Relax Uncle Sam, the Canadians are not attacking the United States. The only time we will attack is if you are on the other team in the hockey rink. But there are some things you should be concerned about. For example, when you import oil, you aren't funding terrorists in the Middle East. You are funding the next generation of gold medal curling squads. You aren't funding jihad. You are funding something much more powerful than religion, hockey. Your money for oil is going to Canada, the leading exporter to the United States.


And for the picture above, it was merely a bet that some Parliament and White House officials made. Note to Americans: Don't bet against Canada in hockey. Your country isn't under siege ... yet.
