We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. - that to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, ...Those words are golden: Our Rights come from God Who Created the Universe; and the purpose of civil government is to secure the Rights GOD gave us.
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.The First Amendment doesn't grant any rights to anybody! All it does is prohibit CONGRESS from making laws about religion, speech, the press, or assembly! So Muslims do not have a "First Amendment right" to build mosques, proselytize, and implement shariah here. 4. Not only do Muslims claim the "right" to impose shariah in the Muslim communities springing up throughout our Country, they also claim the "right" to impose shariah law in the public square: They demand shariah compliant financial institutions, foot baths in public places, that wine, sausages, and the like be banned from their presence, that they be allowed to shut down public streets for "prayers", etc. Do Muslims have the "right" to apply their law here? No! Art. VI, clause 2 of Our Constitution says:
This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuance thereof; and all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authority of the United States, shall be the supreme Law of the Land; and the Judges in every State shall be bound thereby, any Thing in the Constitution or Laws of any State to the Contrary notwithstanding.OUR Constitution and laws authorized by OUR Constitution are the supreme law of this land - and anything to the contrary must fall. It violates Our Constitution for Muslims to practice shariah here! Muslims who thus seek to overthrow Our Constitution and replace it with shariah are guilty of criminal sedition. The federal government has the duty to prosecute them for sedition - or deport them. 5. Can the federal or state or local governments properly extend to Muslims a "right" to build mosques & proselytize here? No! Because The Declaration of Independence says the purpose of civil government is to secure the rights GOD gave us. Muslims seek to take away our God-given Rights. Civil government is supposed to protect us from those who seek to divest us of our Rights. We must insist that our federal, State, and local governments STOP the islamization of Our Country. We must insist that they live up to the one legitimate purpose of civil government: to protect our GOD-given rights. 6. WE are a Christian Country based on Judeo - Christian principles. Our Constitution is not a suicide pact. It does not require us to permit Muslims to take Our Country over and destroy Our principles and impose their barbaric totalitarian system on us. The Declaration of Independence recognizes God as Creator, supreme Judge and Regulator of the World, and as our Divine Protector. Article VII of Our Constitution, just above the signatures, recognizes the Lordship of Jesus Christ. It says,
Done in Convention by the Unanimous Consent of the States present the Seventeenth Day of September in the Year of our Lord one thousand seven hundred and Eighty seven ...7. So! Let us summarize the above three Principles: (1) Our Rights come from God - they predate & preexist the constitution. our constitution doesn't give "rights" to anybody. so muslims don't have "constitutional rights" to come here, build mosques, proselytize, and impose shariah. (2) all the Evidence shows that Muslims take away from People the Rights God gave them. Since Our Declaration of Independence acknowledges that the purpose of civil governments is to secure the Rights GOD gave us, it is the duty and responsibility of civil governments at all levels to protect us from islamization. (3) Article VI, clause 2, U.S. Constitution - the "Supremacy clause" - makes it unconstitutional for Muslims to practice shariah law ANYWHERE in Our Country. 8. The Center for Security Policy recently issued a scholarly (but readable) report: "Shariah: The Threat to America" . Important suggested policy changes are listed on pages 141-144. Tell your tea party groups! Take delegations to your local, state, and federal representatives and tell them about it. Most of them are weak & ignorant, so you must educate them and demand that they do their job and defend your community from islamization. 9. Dutch Member of Parliament Geert Wilders lists ten steps western countries must take to stop the islamization of their countries. All ten steps are mandated by our Declaration of Independence, and consistent with our Constitution: (1) Stop cultural relativism: We must formalize the Idea that we have one dominant culture that is based on Judaism & Christianity [Wilders adds "humanism"]. (2) Stop pretending that Islam is a religion. (3) Show the true face of fundamentalist Islam. It is a brutal totalitarian ideology. (4) Stop all immigration from Muslim countries. For Muslims who are already citizens, tell them that if they adhere to our values and our Constitution, they may stay as equals. But if they deviate, we will expel them. (5) Outlaw shariah and deport practitioners. (6) Require Muslims to sign legally binding pledge of integration and allegiance. (7) Stop building mosques. (8) Seek reciprocity with Saudi Arabia for western churches & synagogues. (9) Close all Islamic schools - they are fascist institutions teaching hate. (10) Remove our current weak leaders. It is time to boldly stand up for Our God, OUR Declaration of Independence, and Our Constitution, and say, "No!" to those who are taking over Our Country. It is time to use Our God-given unalienable Rights and Our Constitution as the Sword & Shield they are meant to be. We can and must use these to defeat Islamization. PH
