Do our leaders understand that Islam is incompatible with the United States Constitution? Get your 2008 Truth For Muslims Voter Guide!
The purpose of the Truth For Muslims leadership and accountability educational program is to educate YOU about one of the most crucial issues facing America: the rising influence of Islam. We hope this program will help you to discern which leaders, now or in the future, are speaking wisely about how Americans should respond to Islam. Several of the examples we’ve chosen are high-profile political leaders, but the “Ten Questions” you’ll find below can be used to analyze any leader—whether on a county council, school committee, talk show...even a church missions board.
Truth For Muslims intends this for this information to be a powerful TOOL for you as you seek to be a good citizen. Please use it to encourage your leaders—local, state, and national—to understand and then speak the truth about Islam in America. And if you see one who’s already doing a good job—congratulate him.
In any position of political, cultural, social, or church leadership, the ideal candidate is one who will provide true leadership by understanding, honestly addressing, and then decisively acting on difficult issues. Truth For Muslims contends that Islam is one of those issues.
Insofar as Islam is concerned, the ideal candidate (“TIC”) will be one who knows history and understands Islam in its historical context over time. He readily sees that Islam is incompatible with the United States Constitution, Biblical Christianity, and basic Western democracy.
Furthermore, he understands the role of religion in life and its relationship to the U.S. form of government. He believes in the United States and values the American way of life. He doesn’t cave in to cultural pressure to be politically correct, but rather is firm in taking a stand against any ideology that undermines justice or liberty.
The ideal candidate is one who leads the national discussion about confronting Islam in our generation and articulates the reasons why Islam is incompatible with the U.S. Constitution. He never defends Islam (a system which provided little to no influence on the founding of the American government or its principles of freedom) nor is he an apologist for Islam. He never tries to convince the American people that Islam is good.
He may wish success on those “moderate” Muslims who want to reform Islam into something other than what it has been for 1,400 years (perhaps a new form of Islam as a religion which is compatible with the U.S. Constitution), but he himself does not advocate or promote any form of Islam whatsoever.
Realizing that (a) Islam-as-a-religion should be extended the same freedoms as any other religion, but also that (b) Islam is more than a religion, and makes demands on politics, culture, and every other aspect of life, the leader understands where the lines are to be drawn in limiting the influence of Islam on American society.
He understands that there are a few key issues regarding Islam which need to be addressed and directly confronted in our generation:
Freedom of Religion vs. the Law of Apostasy
The Preeminence of the Constitution vs. Sharia Law
The reality of Islam’s determination to rule the world (and the tactics it uses)
1. What do you know about Sharia law, and do you believe it has any place in American courts?
2. What is your view on the Islamic “law of apostasy?”
3. Does Islam permit the free & equal practice of diverse form of religious expression?
4. Does the fact that many Muslims are non-violent, peaceable citizens automatically mean that Islam is a religion of peace?
5. What do you know about the history of Islam?
6. Should churches which promote hatred, bigotry, and the violent overthrow of the government be protected as religious establishments?
7. Is a mosque only a religious house of worship?
8. Does the Constitution protect those who choose to express a negative opinion about Mohammed?
9. What is your response to foreign governments that fund home-grown insurgency against America?
10. What is your stance towards multiculturalism?
