When radical imams declare a holy war against Christians and non-muslims, and call for killing or destroying non-muslims only a few muslims condemns it. But when the Pope quotes a 14th century( remember he was just quoting) book about how some muslim teaching leads to violence , the whole muslim world erupts into a riot and wants to get rid of the pope. I mean if you are so sure about your faith , you should accept criticism. To me intolerance is a sign of weakness especially to ones faith. **** im gonna hear for this.

Those Muslims who want to live under Islamic Sharia law were told on
Wednesday to get out of Australia, as the government targeted radicals
in a bid to head off potential terror attacks.

A day after a group of mainstream Muslim leaders pledged loyalty to
Australia at a special meeting with Prime Minister John Howard, he and
his ministers made it clear that extremists would face a crackdown.
Treasurer
Peter Costello, seen as heir apparent to Howard, hinted that some
radical clerics could be asked to leave the country if they did not
accept that Australia was a secular state and its laws were made by
parliament. "If those are not your values, if you want a country which
has Sharia law or a theocratic state, then Australia is not for you," he
said on national television.

"I'd be saying to clerics who are teaching that there are two laws
governing people in Australia, one the Australian law and another the
Islamic law, that is false. If you can't agree with parliamentary law,
independent courts, democracy, and would prefer Sharia law and have the
opportunity to go to another country, which practices it, perhaps, then,
that's a better option," Costello said.

Asked whether he meant radical clerics would be forced to leave, he said
those with dual citizenship could possibly be asked to move to the other
country.

Education Minister Brendan Nelson later told reporters that Muslims who
did not want to accept local values should "clear off". "Basically,
people who don't want to be Australians, and they don't want to live by
Australian values and understand them, well then they can basically
clear off," he said. Separately, Howard angered some Australian Muslims
on Wednesday by saying he supported spy agencies monitoring the nation's
mosques.


Quote:
IMMIGRANTS, NOT AUSTRALIANS, MUST ADAPT. Take It Or Leave It. I am
tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some
individual or their culture. Since the terrorist attacks on Bali, we
have experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of Australians.

However, the dust from the attacks had barely settled when the
"politically correct" crowd began complaining about the possibility that
our patriotism was offending others. I am not against immigration, nor
do I hold a grudge against anyone who is seeking a better life by coming
to Australia. However, there are a few things that those who have
recently come to our country, and apparently some born here, need to
understand.

This idea of Australia being a multicultural community has served only
to dilute our sovereignty and our national identity. As Australians, we
have our own culture, our own society, our own language and our own
lifestyle.
This culture has been developed over two centuries of struggles, trials
and victories by millions of men and women who have sought freedom.

We speak mainly ENGLISH, not Spanish, Lebanese, Arabic, Chinese,
Japanese, Russian, or any other language. Therefore, if you wish to
become part of our society, Learn the language!

Most Australians believe in God. This is not some Christian, right
wing, political push but a fact because Christian men and women, on
Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly
documented. It is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of
our schools. If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another
part of the world as your new home. Because God is part of our culture.
We will accept your beliefs and will not question why, all we ask is
that you accept ours and live in harmony and peaceful enjoyment with us.

If the Southern Cross offends you, or you don't like " A Fair Go", then
you should seriously consider a move to another part of this planet. We
are happy with our culture and have no desire to change, and we really
don't care how you did things where you came from. By all means keep
your culture but do not force it on others.

This is OUR COUNTRY, OUR LAND, and OUR LIFESTYLE, and we will allow you
every opportunity to enjoy all this. But once you are done complaining,
whining, and griping about Our Flag, Our Pledge, Our Christian beliefs,
or Our Way of Life, I highly encourage you take advantage of one other
great Australian freedom, "THE RIGHT TO LEAVE".

If you aren't happy here then LEAVE. We didn't force you to come here.
You asked to be here, so accept the country YOU accepted.

Pretty easy really, when you think about it. I figure if we all keep
passing this to our friends it will also, sooner or later get back to
the complainers, lets all try, please.

When a person has beliefs that are formed as a result of evidence and reason, we can say that there is a causal relationship between reality and the person's beliefs about it - i.e. objective facts perceived through the senses and interpreted using reason, give rise to beliefs which are (hopefully) in accordance with reality.

What kind of connection is there between reality and faith? If faith means believing something despite the absence of satisfactory argument and/or evidence, then how can there be any such valid relationship? How can faith be anything other than irrational? How can it be claimed to be anything other than wishful or fearful thinking?

This is why rational people regard faith as worthless - because it has no apparent connection with reality. If you can demonstrate otherwise, I'd be interested to read about it.
