Hillary was talking about Taliban fighters impressed (forced) into fighting. Guerilla armies often do this. Mujahid is blowing smoke since there is always a moderate element in any movement although he would be lunatic to admit it publicly.

Keep in mind that the Taliban is not the same is Islam as a whole. “Going and finding” moderate “taliban” is not realistic – they’re not going to speak up – or face death.
Moderates who have been forced into the Taliban may come to us.
I fully understand that there are moderate (and even liberal) Muslims…but “moderate” Taliban is sort of like saying “religiously liberal” Amish. They may be there, but they’re not speaking up. (NOT saying the Amish are Taliban…only that there are about as many religious liberals among the Amish as there are moderates among the Taliban)

MzEllen, you might be surprised that there are liberal Amish–who were excommunicated from the Amish you might see in Lancaster County over the issue of whether or not men should wear moustaches.
But Michelle, you’d even side with the Taliban if they oppose some Democrat you hate? Really?

Lucifer be praised!
It is very hard to reach the general public to let them know about the joys of worshipping Lucifer. What Michelle does for us is to show the reality of being a Christian–and that makes our work so much easier. Thank you, Michelle! You are a true example of Christianity!

Someone posted impersonating Douglas Green?

D. Green – I have come to see that Michelle/MzEllen are so completely partisan that it gives the rest of us a wonderful prompt to write in rebuttal – it would be a shame for her to disappear. No thinking person would presume that Michelle speaks for WTS – besides she is only a student. Please continue to comment so that we might gain another perspective on Westminster Theological Seminary. Also what is your “obligation”?

Moonshadow, there is little that some of these folks won’t stoop to in their hatred of Michele. My heart hurts for her.
Robert, at which point, they were excommunicated…no longer “Amish”. That was my point with the Taliban – if they leave, there are no longer “Taliban”. They may be “dead”, but no longer Taliban.
another bob, my guess is that the obliganion of “D. Green” is to continue to impersonate another person (thus violating the terms of agreement of beliefnet) and continuing to attempt to stifle dissent.

my guess is that the obliganion of “D. Green”
I think he’s referring to reading her exegesis, due tomorrow.
TMI available online.

My heart hurts for her.
Don’t worry about her.

Heh, thin ice. Always a question of “who left whom?” 1 John 2:19.

If I’m right, the person posting is impersonating another person and isn’t here out of charity.
If the person really is D. Green, he’s incredibly unprofessional and should be reprimanded by his employer.
Don’t worry about her.
Bear one another’s burdens and all that…
Heh, thin ice. Always a question of “who left whom?” 1 John 2:19.
I think that the ones who control the governmental structure – the one who decided on the excommunication get to pick. It doesn’t mean they’re not “Christian”, but when you don’t believe what the rest of the organization believes and they kick you out…I think the right to call yourself by that name is sort of shot.

Bear one another’s burdens and all that…
Yes, of course.

“But Michelle, you’d even side with the Taliban if they oppose some Democrat you hate? Really?”
well, yeah. duh. they have a common enemy now.
another bob is right that there are moderates in every movement (except for the religious right).

Anonymous Reincarnate…does saying a person should exercise caution when petting a rabid dog mean that you’re siding with the dog?
there are moderates in every movement (except for the religious right).
Including the religious right Muslims…does that include the “Taliban”?
