Morton Klein: Biden Is Coupling Antisemitism With Other Phobias
"In addition to more than watering down the definition including a definition that's dangerous and frightening that will protect major Jew haters in Congress officials in the world and on campuses It protects them now You can't call them anti semitic according to what Biden is embracing In addition in the same sentence when he condemns anti semitism that Biden in this report condemns islamophobia homophobia transphobia misogyny In other words he makes antisemitism no longer unique by coupling it combining it with these other phobias and these other groups don't have nearly the amount of dangerous hate speech and attacks as the Jews do 63% of all hate attacks in America according to religion 63% against Jews not against Muslims or Christians or any of these other groups So he's really watered down a terrible way And let me tell you something else dangerous here I must say Mark He once hate speech to be abolished This is very dangerous Of course we're all against hate speech No one should use it But how will he be defining hate speech Here says we have to abolish hate speech That means if I attack Lewis farrakhan is that hate speech Will they say that means I'm a racist by attacked the radical group Black Lives Matter Is that racist If I attack Iran or radical Islam is that racist It's very dangerous what he put in this report by wanting to abolish all hate speech which means that if anyone's idea of how they will define it and this is really another dangerous aspect of this whole report

On this week's AP Religion Roundup, King Charles recognizes a spectrum of faiths in today's United Kingdom.
"On this week's AP religion roundup at his coronation, King Charles recognizes a spectrum of faith in today's United Kingdom. At a time when religion is entwined and tensions around the world, King Charles is trying to bridge the differences between the faith groups that make up Britain's increasingly diverse society. This is on display at his coronation when religious leaders representing Buddhist Hindu Jewish and other traditions will play an active role in the ceremonies for the first time. For decades, Charles has suggested that he would like to be known as the defender of faith, a small but hugely symbolic change from the monarch's traditional title of defender of the faith, meaning Christianity. When he says he wants to be defender of faiths, that means the world. Nikki Liz is a rabbi in North London. Our history hasn't always been so simple, and we haven't always lived freely. We haven't been able to practice our religion, but knowing that King Charles acts this way and speaks this way, is tremendously comforting. King Charles has expressed an appreciation for Hindu practices, including the healing power of yoga. At once called Islam, one of the greatest treasuries of accumulated wisdom and spiritual knowledge available to humanity. The director of the Oxford center for Islamic studies says he appreciates the king's recognition of the UK's array of religious groups. To have all citizens feel that they have their valued in their own countries. There is that respect and protection that the desire from the government. So that there is the same sense of belonging in these places. And I think there is no one better. Who could express this than the monarch. 70 years ago, more than 80% of people in England were Christian. That figure has now dropped below half with 37%, saying they have no religion, 6.5% calling themselves Muslim and 1.7% Hindu. The change is even more pronounced in London, where more than a quarter of the population have a non Christian faith. I'm Walter ratliff.

The world's Muslims celebrate the end of Ramadan, and the Supreme court weighs the case of a postal worker who refused to work on Sundays
"On this week's AP religion roundup, the world's Muslims celebrate the end of Ramadan and the Supreme Court weighs the case of a mail carrier who refused to work on Sundays. In Jerusalem, Muslims pray at the Al-Aqsa Mosque as the month devoted to worship, repentance, and daytime fasting ends. Islam's holidays follow a lunar calendar, but some countries rely on astronomical calculations rather than physical sightings. This frequently leads to a disagreement between religious authorities and different countries, and sometimes in the same country over the start date of the eat holiday. This year, Saudi Arabia and many other Arab countries began their eat celebrations on Friday. While Iran, Pakistan and Indonesia, among others, set the first day of the holiday for Saturday. This week, the U.S. Supreme Court heard the case of a mail carrier who refused to deliver Amazon packages on Sundays. They shouldn't have to choose between their job and their faith. In an AP interview, Gerald Groff says he was forced to decide between working on Sunday and keeping his job. I actually told my postal supervisors, I feel like your boxing into a corner and you're asking me to choose to do what you say, the postal supervisor, or to do what God says. And I said, I mean no disrespect whatsoever, but I have to choose God and my conviction is that strong. Come what may. And so if it means I lose my job, that's very sad, but it's not a choice for me. It's what I believe. I was still officials initially tried to get substitutes, but they couldn't always accommodate him. He ultimately quit his job at the postal service and sued for discrimination. To give that up to deliver Amazon packages would be to give up everything that we believe in. It's a day we set aside to honor God to worship God to come together as believers, not only in church, but after church in fellowship around the table and spending time together and it's really the whole day it's not just the morning and then go to work or something like that. The justices seemed in broad agreement that businesses like the postal service can't cite minor costs or hardships to reject requests to accommodate religious practices. I'm Walter ratliff

Ramadan begins for the world's Muslims, a pioneer of gospel music is rediscovered
"On this week's AP religion roundup, Ramadan begins for the world's Muslims and a pioneer of gospel music is rediscovered. Hundreds of millions of Muslims began the daily facts of Ramadan this week during Ramadan observant Muslims abstain from food and water from dawn to dusk and gather with family and friends for nighttime meals. Enjoy within the bandages now. Imad Hamad of Dearborn, Michigan, says it's like opening a new page with God each year. This is the way that is required to face the month. This is the way it's required to again guts rewards and gain the forgiveness and open a new chapter. That's why we quote Ramadan is a month of renewable. Islam follows a lunar calendar, so Ramadan starts about a week and a half earlier each year. For more than two decades, the work of gospel music composer, Charles Henry pace, sat silent and 14 unorganized crates. I knew we had this gospel collection, but nobody had ever really looked into it or really even figured out what it was. Christopher lynch is a musicologist at the center for American music at the university of Pittsburgh. We had about 140 pieces of music that didn't exist in any other library in the world. And might be completely lost. Lynch and his team discovered that pace was an early pioneer of gospel music. His independently owned publishing company helped elevate and expand the genre. I remember working in our music store. If my late teens. Francis pace barns. She was surprised at her father's impact. I think what I learned as an adult, I recognized, God, he was smart. Just a little ahead of his time, maybe. One, two, go. Average Herbert Jones, the founder of the heritage gospel corral, says bases archives help secure Pittsburgh special place in music history. Pittsburgh was a stop over point for jazz musicians and blues musicians back in the 20s, 30s, 40s and 50s. So this is another niche in the history of Pittsburgh and the music field. This week, the community showcased paces work at a free concert in Pittsburgh's hill district. Hi, Walter radliff.

World marks Women's Day but abuses, inequality still rampant
"There are demonstrations rallies and events around the globe today to mark international women's day. It's a day established to celebrate and demand equality for half the planet's population, but it's a long road ahead for countries such as Afghanistan, which has become the most repressive for women and girls since the Taliban take over in 2021. Hafiza is a former Kabul university law student. The worst situation is when your dreams are shuttered, and you are punished for being a woman. Islam had not banned women from their right to education. Our beloved prophet's wife was a businesswoman, while she was the wife of our beloved prophet. But we are not even allowed to study and get educated. 18 year old shahida was in the tenth grade when the Taliban took over, now she works in a yarn factory. Women don't have any rights in Afghanistan. Schools are closed, educational centers are closed, and all other options for women are closed. We just demand from the government to reopen schools and educational centers for us, and give us our rights. But there have been major advances. In Spain, the country on Tuesday passed a law requiring that women make up at least 40% of boards of directors for larger companies, the same will apply to Spain's cabinet, on Monday, United Nations secretary general Antonio Guterres noted that women's rights are being abused, threatened and violated around the world, and gender equality won't be achieved for 300 years on the current track. He says progress won over decades is vanishing because he says the patriarchy is fighting back. I'm Donna water

What Do Judaism and Christianity Have in Common?
"So I have a thought for you and if you're Christian or Jewish or neither you will find all of this interesting and provocative. Judaism and Christianity are the only two religions that share a holy scripture. That's very interesting. And again, it's not something people think about. They know it, but they don't think about it, and they don't realize it's unique. So take, for example, the other monotheistic religion Islam. Islam does not share a holy scripture with Judaism or Christianity. In fact, it is basic to Islamic belief that the Jews distorted the Old Testament, especially the Torah, the key, the key 5 books of Moses, and the Christians made up of their own New Testament. And the only authentic word of God is the Quran. It's not a criticism in the least. It's just a statement of fact. So that's why one does not speak of judeo Muslim or Muslim or christiano Muslim values. That's not to say that a Muslim and a Christian and a Jew can not share some values. Of course they can. But a Muslim and an excuse me, a Jew and a Christian could share values with a Hindu and with the Buddhist and with an atheist. They don't share theologies or beliefs, but they can share values. That's given if you believe in free speech, you share a value, right? Right.

Erdogan: Sweden can't join NATO if Quran-burning is allowed
"Turkey, which has been holding off approving Sweden and Finland's membership in the western military alliance, has been infuriated by a series of demonstrations in Stockholm by activists who have burnt the Quran. Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has reaffirmed turkey won't allow Sweden to join the NATO military alliance. As long as it permits protests, desecrating Islam's holy book to take place. Erdoğan says in a speech to his ruling party's legislators, Sweden don't even bother as long as you allow my holy book of to be burned and torn and you do so together with your security forces, we will not say yes to your entry. Ankara has indefinitely postponed a key meeting in Brussels that would have discussed the two Nordic countries entry into NATO. I'm Charles De Ledesma

Chad Robichaux on His Group’s Amazing Rescue Operation in Afghanistan
"A child, Soviets leave Afghanistan. There's a kind of internecine struggle that Taliban emerge as the leader. And the Taliban is operating in the name of Islam. But they don't have the support of the whole country. And it seems clear that there were a lot of Muslims who resisted and even to now are against the Taliban. Talk a little bit about because some people think, well, you know, Islam is the enemy, the Muslims are all kind of cut from the same cloth. Talk a little bit about what you discovered on the ground about different types of Muslims in Afghanistan. I believed this too, frankly, moving in this. And so I was received a really on the ground education of it and is seeing how these people and as he's the best example I know, I remember being in a car with them and he's driving and he's a young Muslim guy and he's talking about a freedom in democracy that note he's never even seen before, never witnessed before, but he's talking about willing to die for it and fight for it. So his future daughters would be free. So they would be subject to this Taliban ideology. And they wouldn't be able to have education and not be forced to be married to sexually enslaved. And I remember just being so blown away because I'd never heard an American speak about freedom and liberty and democracy that way. And I realized how naive we could be here at home. And he was willing to die for it. And that really took me back and I realized that wasn't just him. There was so many Afghan Muslims for many years that were willing to fight against this erratic wide ideology that a Taliban was to truly oppress people for money for power and really wrinkly when it came down to it for a sexual power over the women of Afghanistan.

On this week's AP Religion Roundup, Pope Francis says homosexuality is sin but not a crime, protests against Quran desecrations erupt across the Middle East, and a group of young Jewish rescuers are commemorated on Holocaust Remembrance Day.
"On this week's AP religion roundup, Pope Francis says homosexuality is a sin, but not a crime. Protests against coran desecrations erupt across the Middle East, and a group of young Jewish rescuers are remembered on Holocaust remembrance day. In an interview with The Associated Press, Pope Francis criticized laws that criminalize homosexuality as unjust. Francis acknowledged that Catholic bishops in some parts of the world still support laws that criminalize homosexuality or discriminate against the LGBTQ community. He said bishops in particular need to undergo a process of change, recognizing the dignity of everyone. Although the Pope's comments call for an end to criminalizing homosexuality, the Vatican still considers the act of homosexuality a sin. Protests were held Friday in several predominantly Muslim countries to denounce the recent desecration of Islam's holy book the Quran by far right activists in Sweden and the Netherlands. In Tehran scores of worshipers burn the Swedish flag enchanted slogans after Friday prayers. Earlier this month, a far right activist staged a protest outside the Turkish embassy in Stockholm, where he burned the Quran. Days later, the leader of a far right movement in the Netherlands, Tor pages out of a Quran near the Dutch parliament. The moves angered millions of Muslims around the world and triggered the protests. On Holocaust remembrance day, the underground zionist youth movement is remembered for helping Jewish refugees during World War II. Members in their 90s like Sarah Epstein recalled supplying refugees with food cards and forged documents. She was among a group of Jewish youth leaders in Hungary that jumped into action just before Nazi Germany invaded in March 1944. She says the actions of Jewish youth leaders who save tens of thousands from the gas chambers should be remembered. I'm Walter ratliff.

The Hajj is expected to return in full, Cardinal Pell remains controversial even in death, and Jordanian Christians celebrate Christ's baptism
"On this week's AP religion roundup. The Hodge pilgrimage is expected to return in full cardinal pal remains controversial, even in death, and Jordanian Christians celebrate Christ's baptism. A God. Sydney, Australia's archbishop paid tribute Wednesday to cardinal George Powell. The controversial archbishop died Tuesday. Pell was a one time financial adviser to Pope Francis. He spent over 400 days in solitary confinement in his native Australia on child sex abuse charges before his convictions were unanimously overturned. Pell was a divisive figure. He lived to see Vatican rivals charged with financial crimes after he worked to reform the church's finances. In Australia, he was a lightning rod for disagreements over whether the church had been properly held to account for historic child sex abuse. It was revealed after his death that he pinned a secret memo on his growing concern about what he considered the disaster and catastrophe of the papacy under Pope Francis. Jordanian Catholics prayed for health and peace as they gathered near the eastern bank of the Jordan River Friday to mark the baptism of Jesus Christ. The baptism celebration closes out the liturgical Christmas season among western churches, where it celebrated anywhere from January 7th to the 13th. More than 3000 pilgrims attended the event, where according to Christian tradition, John the Baptist baptized Jesus. The Latin patriarch of Jerusalem led prayers at a church located near the eastern bank of the river, UNESCO has declared the area a World Heritage Site of immense religious significance. Saudi Arabia announced that Islam's annual Hodge pilgrimage will return to pre-pandemic levels this year. In previous years, the annual religious commemoration was curtailed over concerns about the coronavirus. The Hajj is required of all able bodied Muslims once in their life and represents one of the world's largest gatherings of people. Before the pandemic, the pilgrimage drew millions each year to Islam's sacred city of Mecca. This year the Hajj begins during the last week of June. I'm Walter ratliff

Professor Shows Painting of the Prophet Muhammad and Loses Her Job
"There's a university in Minnesota called hamline university, small Minnesota college, and hemline recently refused to renew the contract of an art professor named Erica frater. Why? Because in class, she showed two famous Islamic paintings that depict the prophet Muhammad. One is apparently from, well, these paintings are for between the 14th and the 16th century. Now, some Muslim students complained initially just one, but then later the university met with the sort of Islamic alliance on the campus. And it was the usual claim of being triggered. There is a woman, a senior named aram weta Tala, and this individual was in the class, this woman, and she says, I'm like, this can't be real. As a Muslim and a black person, I don't feel like I belong. And I don't think I'll ever belong in a community where they don't value me. Now, why don't they value her? Well, because apparently she believes that in Islam, it is not allowed to show any visual depictions of the prophet Muhammad. Now, the professor, by the way, Erica prater was well aware that it is controversial in Islam to show depictions of Muhammad. And so before she even showed these paintings, which by the way are famous paintings, as I mentioned from between the 14th and 16th century, she said that this is controversial, she kind of warned her student. She goes, quote, I'm showing you this image for a reason. And that there is this common thinking that Islam completely forbids outright any figurative depictions or any depictions of holy personages. And then she goes on to say, while many Islamic cultures do strongly frown on this practice, I would like to remind you there is no one monolithic Islamic culture.

Dinesh Examines the Turmoil in Brazil
"Remarkable events in Brazil started just a couple of days ago in what might seem like a startling parallel to January 6th, January 6th of 2021. You had thousands, maybe tens of thousands of Brazilians, storming the Congress, the Supreme Court, and the seat of the presidency, which is the plan alto palace. And all of this occurred in a remarkable way seems to have taken the authorities by surprise, now over the subsequent 48 hours, the protesters, the objectors have been evacuated, apparently there have been about a thousand arrests, and it seems that Brazil's political situation is in flux. Now, there have been lots of people in America who are looking at the Brazilian situation purely through the lens of American politics. Now, we have a tendency to do this and it is, it is a tendency that should at least be somewhat resisted, or we should be cautious about. Why? Because things that are going on inside the United States often have a vocabulary and an understanding that doesn't really apply at least not applying quite the same way. Even when we use terms like Islamic fundamentalism. It's a little misleading because fundamentalism is a movement inside of Protestant Christianity. A kind of return to fundamentals in the wake of the 19th century movements of biblical criticism and the challenging of the literal truths of the Bible, what's going on in Islam is quite different from that. Or even I remember doing the 1980s when there was a debate going on in South Africa over apartheid. I would see analyses of those that interpret them exclusively through the lens of the civil rights movement. And that's partially right. I mean, obviously there was a form of apartheid itself as a form of segregation, but not in the same way as in the American south. And not with the same underlying premises or institutions.

God Incarnate
"Chapter one verse 22, all this took place to fulfill what the lord had spoken by the prophet, behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and they shall call his name immanuel, which means God with us. What a verse. From the very beginning, this introduction to Jesus in Matthew chapter one. And there are so many verses we could pray according to in Matthew one. But this first specifically, talking about the miracle of the virgin birth, the incarnation, the humanity, and deity of Jesus in one behold the virgin shall conceive and bear a son. There's his humanity, God, in the flesh, coming to us as a man born from a mother. And they shall call his name Emmanuel, which means God with us. If this God, his deity, humanity, indeed, in one person, Jesus, fully man, and fully God. This is the miracle of the incarnation, arguably the most astounding miracle in all the Bible. You might think, well, resurrection of Jesus from the dead, that's pretty astounding. Well, sure it is. But once you realize that Jesus is God, it's not that remarkable that he rose from the dead. What's remarkable is that he died in the first place. Like this changes everything. This is the truth which divides Christianity from Judaism. Christianity from Islam, everything flows from this and I just want to encourage us on this day to pause and a fresh way and consider the wonder of who Jesus is and all this means he is like us, his familiar with our suffering is sympathetic with our weaknesses, hebrews forces, and he is God. He is able to save us from our sin and to save us ultimately from suffering. And one day, he is coming back for us,

But I want to talk about the Christian church. And how we are so much different than some of these other religions per CAPiTA. 'cause I think obviously I think the faith in Jesus Christ is the number one thing to get you where you need to go. However, we were more relaxed today. Days ago than everybody else, why do you think that Christians on its stern about the Bible is Muslims with the Quran or Christians on his stern about the Bible as Jewish people are with the Torah? Can you explain that to the people? Because according to the tour, you have to be obedient, right? So Jews already, they teach you, you have to be obedient. Obedience is required. And Islam obedience is required or you'll get excommunicated. And Christianity, people think obedience isn't required. That's why only fans model can claim to be a Christian. That's why stuff I'm not going to name on the radio. You know somebody that's a crit that say they Christians and they got a little channel.

There's been arrested for felony child pornography. Don't you? Somebody's a sex offender. You never gonna watch it, you have to make a judgment call. Bro, it was funny as right after he talks about judging by the fruit and Matthew 7. When he gets to Matthew 7 23, he says he gives you a list of people that say they did all types of things for Jesus. Didn't I do things in your name? Then I do miracles in your name, and he said, department. I never knew you. I never knew you, Ye that work iniquity. True. You have to be obedient.

Basically to this day believes the. I have black magic on me. And that's why i don't believe and that's a really common thing to kind of magic and sorcery and that sort of thing really part of islam you know. The prophet had black magic on him. It's it's quite a big thing in the renaissance. My mom just thinks that must be the reason. So it's not my daughter. She is being controlled by dark spirit. Exactly exactly. I mean someone actually kind of confirmed full had i met with him and he was like yeah. You'll possess like okay information to have. Yeah bitch you've been very kind and generous with your time real fast. You are a life coach. You've got a youtube channel. You speak about islam about other things. I don't know some it up for me. Give me a kind of a profile of what you do as can i call you an activist. I mean what's a good word for what you do. I'm an activist. I guess yeah. I mean i. I just youtube tunnel when i wanted to. Well when i left assam in fact a lot of people found out. I'd left assam through a tunnel. I just made a video while left islam and just posted everywhere mainly because i found that ex medicines needs to be more kind of conversations about this about people needing Hair about it. As much on as i said the whole kind of new to this sort of sense from islam needs to needs to happen most so the go to youtube channel where i discuss when agenda nestled thing and i moved to accounts in life coach. Yes so. I do a lot with ex muslims and as you can imagine ex muslims i mean i kinda briefly touched on it but a very often that either threatens the death that they will stay a long time in the west. I kind of have to leave their homes and awful. Things happen to ex mrs just because they don't believe in religion anymore there must also be an assimilation challenge. Right there entering a culture they have been talked for so long was haram or forbidden or evil or covered in black magic and now they they're being introduced to it from a different perspective and wondering what to do i and and what to do second and third. I mean that coming into a culture that was forbidden for them. They couldn't do certain things and it's such a big culture shock to many people they don't know how to handler. And but also just you lose your whole identity seal mice because islamism is all consuming. It's not just a religion it's a way of life that's on the on. The burr shows is who you are so for many people. They've kind of they get this sort of identity crisis as well. Who am i. If i'm not muslim anymore and there's a lot of complexities with kind of leaving. And some of the family aspects their own pass no aspect the community for many people really a life or death situation Because there is a death penalty when it comes to apostates and within the muslim culture there. Is this big issue with ana is well. You know kind of on a culture that you have to honor your family and on your religion and you know if i mentioned shame is a big ones that he brings shame on the family. That definitely is this sort of well. The family need to then take into the hands and punish you however is different is a whole scale of punishment involves but often the families feel. It's dead ut to punish you. And that's what god would have wanted. You know they have to take upon themselves to decide. Now what to do with you so i can be very very traumatic and scary. I think just being able to see your face in hear your voice for so many people who are struggling trying to ration rationalize or a reason their way out of unreasonable beliefs they find encouragement and they realize they're not alone in in.

Sort of how hard you can hit. Some people say only hit with feather or something obviously especially nowadays people are like. Oh it doesn't really mean hit. It just means like shake or like i don't know people have people really trying Kinda spin that around. But if you if you know arabic itchy says hit. It doesn't say anything outside. I says hit talking to Shera hater another muslim about repression cultures. And how as they preach on the surface about all the stuff that is forbidden. It is haram when the lights are off when they're deep in their basements when nobody's looking they're doing all the shit that they're telling everybody else. They don't do that they shouldn't do so i'm thinking to myself and i mean i don't know how much you would know about this being kind of an activist and outspoken next muslim. If there's a lot of i dunno porn us and a lot of the you know using drugs eating pork. Maybe i don't know. Is there a lot of that kind of stuff that happens. Once the doors are closed. Sort of an underground of haram going on everything except the coke is like you'll you'll see these young listens being like yeah. I've got a girlfriend sleeping with hair doing drinking alcohol. The nal never have quote my horr- up. I know you definitely see that. Of course on. I know dot of underground things. She'll musso with men men for some reason the from my experience because of the way that they're booths happened because it's very clear even in scriptures that men have the pow- minimal flexible you find the even how parents bring up their children. Boys are allowed to go out girls not so much you'll find boys rebelling but also in assam there's something really handy if you mess up and just mess about you can get all your sins wiped if you go on hatch which is the holy pilgrimage to i remember when i was growing up a lot of youngsters a lot yet on had and then and then i'll be really good say i see a lot of that. That's the pilgrimage to mecca. Which i think every muslim supposed to do at least once in their life. Aren't there millions of people who get there who go and walk around the. What did they call the centerpiece. Thank you thank you so let me ask you a question about it you live in the uk. Currently is that right idea. Please correct me if i'm wrong. But i get the impression that there are concerns about these microcosm 's of sort of many islamic nations that are happening throughout the uk. What's happening issues are seeing bubbles of islam culture. That are not assimilating. And i'm not meaning that they give up their values or don't have the right to believe the way they want to believe but they are rejecting the rule of law. They adhere only to muslim law. They essentially are creating little islamic state's within and throughout the uk. Is that a legit concern or is that just fabricated or something else about like not listening to the laws of like this country and ida islamic leader. Obviously you get the kind of extremist. The real extremists economy christ things but islamic actually all supposed to abide by the more of the launcher knitting in scripture. Not obviously making sure that it's aligned with whatever you but there definitely is a lot of sort of muslim bubbles hundred percent. I mean i. I was in a muslim bubble. I didn't know non-muslim. I nipped in london. So it's kind of ridiculous. I never hung out with muslim. The only non muslims. I knew like on tv so definitely the. I think it's very different in like america and even canada. Like there's a lot more diversity here because there's so many there's a lot of south asians particularly.

Where the west they wear less clothes respected mo and then in these muslim countries where we're supposed to have this fool of protection for the point of being protected. And not being harassed. We're actually being harassed mu so yeah that just cut me up in that moment and i if god had been like guys a great plan if women cover up you'll be protected and deep you'll and you know it will help society as a whole then. It's not worked because he's created this sort of. I mean for my experience of muslim men in these countries particularly In it becomes more of mystery becomes who this sort of like we need to a forbidden bidden fruit. Kind of thing right well exactly exactly but also this concept of slut shaming as wild comes into with the hijab. Because if you're not wearing hijab all if you're wearing slightly tight even if you rank your job but slightly tight-fitting clothes you're not doing accurately of correctly as they would expect you to. Then you're a slut. Then you're asking for why would you dress like that. Why would you break the rules clearly. Want to man's attention because that's what is associated with now. You'll buddy is just for that pack this so you have to just cover up so the thinking was that. There's a kind of moral anarchy.

It's about so that something that is allowed and usually as a good thing pork is the easy one right donate work but i mean me some specific examples of something. That was haram when you were in the faith and well so something actually. I just mentioned that there are things that are sort of debated on that. I grew up around people that were very kind of more stricter spectrum. Not my family though. I found a little bit more relaxed with the people that were my community. At my school. I went to muslim school by the way and they were super super strict and for example they would have said. Music is haram on. Yeah that's something that's kind of debated said but in a music kind of insights on the interruption music. Like all of us. There's one exception one exception not drums and that's only because there was one incident where the prophet muhammad was at a wedding and he made a comment about. Let's place drums. So they're like okay. Drums are allowed not it to everything else. Particular like string instruments flutes and things that they're actually like the devils wok and they cool the devil not only of the cool the devils if you play music. They call the devil. There's actually a specific hobby. Which is the sayings of the prophet. If anyone just deny that says your those people that listen to music in hell hellfire they will have led poured into that is so. It's quite an extreme. Think you'll get more relaxed. Muslims out flip that round. That would be like always more about music that is about bad things negative things like naughty things that nice music so right. That's a subjective series of terms. What qualifies is naughty and nice right exactly well exactly so in the documentary. You were talking about how you were kind of trying to be the hip cool. Yeah muslim award.

"From right. They definitely wanted to have a different strategy. In the middle east of isolating israel and of siding obama has a track record won beside with the more islamist elements But when these things happen there are those in the mainstream media that defend fundamentalism and say. Well what what they're doing. Is it the killing in the streets. That's not true. Islam but often the people doing the killing in the streets are quoting the koran and yelling allah hu akbar and they claim that they do represent true islam so the big question is who can tell us what. True islam is one person mohammed. He was the perfect muslim. His life is called the way or the suna and so if we examine his life we goes through three stages. He was a religious leader. Then he transitions to a political leader and he transitioned to a military leader so mohammed born and five seventy ad and his father dies before he's born. His mother dies when he's six his grandfather. Guardian dies when he's eight so each orphan taken in by uncle abu talib. Who's a merchant goes on camel rides to different cities. Mom hears about the different religions. Some of the jewish faith. Some of the zoro astrium persian faith some of the pagan and some of the christian and then even some of the heretical christian and he there's elements of each of these that appear in his new faith. Matter of fact Zoroastrians were known for for centuries pre mohammed of teaching. The paradise was fill full of virgin that fulfill all the guys desires and so mohammed goes into mecca and he begins to preach and he only makes seventy converts in twelve years and then he gets confrontational and then the people of mecca decide. He's a disturbance that piece. They chased out of town tries to go into a city. Altai they want him. They pelted with rocks and stones. Chase them out of town in jerem so in a sense. He is the original muslim refugee in the six twenty two ad he migrates north to a jewish city called medina. The jews are nice they let mohammed and as a muslim immigrant he goes into the minority neighborhoods in medina and he organizes a following amongst the pagans that were there and they convert and follow him and when his following familiar with the term of organizing in the community when his following gets big enough he goes to the jewish leaders pressured them to accommodate him and his new followers politically the jews do and make treaties novel hamas political leader and then walla followers back in mecca get confrontational get chased out of town for disturbing the peace. Now there are a lot of muslim refugees. They migrate north. The jews in medina. Let them in as a lot of muslim immigrants and mohammed allows them to rob the caravans headed back to mecca in retaliation for the mickens. Jason amount of town. So we're jesus said if they take your code. Give them your shirt. Love your enemies. Pray for those moms attitude was if they take your house you retaliate. Take their caravan and so he had three hundred warriors and they would rob.

But you know when you talk about ardian islam. I feel like this is going to have to tell us. Honestly who's in line. I know it's hard to say when you've got guys like chandler engaged in fighting but when islam fights. Rda right in for all the fights is slumped wanted a role for all the fights aren't the will have wondered if he gets past islam right. That'll be tuna. Roll back at one fifty five after being successful about one seventy now you gotta start to consider whether or not this guy gets another shot at the title so i truly believe that this is going to be a number one. Contender's fight because chandler just fought for the bill gates. You just fought for the belt against bp and if you're looking to get new fresh matchups you gotta start to kind of look at rda versus islam fight and think one of these guys has to show me like that. They deserve a championship opportunities craigslist. It's such a tough division and it's actually a division with stars that are beyond the champion and we used to seeing that usually when a guy like charles oliveira wins the championship. You're not talking about. Who's next in the pecking order. Feeling this way about them. With this type of excitement this type of reverence this type of understanding of okay. This guy could be the next champion. This guy could hold the bill. But that's probably because. I think people are still kind of disrespected charles over one hundred. Normally when you gotta champion you. Don't go this guy. Maybe a few champ. This guy's maybe a future jam right. I think people are living in what they saw from. Charles and the past not the charles oliveira of today and i know we solving vegas. You big charles. Very winning hundred. Yeah you know. Every every guy that walked off the stage. It'd be honest. Because i was thinking to myself as a former football player guy walks around over two hundred pilots. Could i take that were. This dude is five. Seven cannot and charles walks up if you've never been close to them you don't understand how wide shoulders on why how long his arms are. But i want. I want to tell you this the dc. You never get another chance or a second chance to make a first impression. Yup right we saw charles oliveira struggle earlier. We not be able to handle adversity. And i think for so many people even though you come back after a bad first round against chandler and get the knockout. It's so hard to forget those things and that's what we are. I thought i thought that. But i thought that and i know we were talking about islam. Rda but now we're on the. I know we're on the champ. Not but the thing about all for me was that because of what he did because of him bouncing back in showing that in that adversity he was able to dig through. Overcome to become the champion shows the maturity. But i get what you're saying about first impressions meet a lot lately. It's hard to make people forget of the times that got beat by so many guys we're dealing with a different human being right absolutely and who ever is going to step across the octagon with them. We'll have their hands full. But first we look to you to sixty seven. Because that's going to be a fantastic fight between those shifts. Nosql is going to be a great fight. That's the fight.

Because in my opinion spirituality is really just about knowing how to stay in a good state of mind throughout the entirety of just you know existing as a human so i feel like it makes complete sense for us to explore how religion can be a part of that. Because i feel like on this show. We've done a lot of talking about religion as an institution and from a historical place. But i feel like it's time to really delve into how it affects. People and also the concept of spirituality. Right it applies to everyone. Everyone who follow organized religion braces people. Who don't follow religion at all. At least if not spirituality than mindfulness right. Yeah definitely. Sarah tell us a little bit about our guests. Yes so our guests are heather. Coup who is a professor at indiana university and hanan moawad who is a friend of muslim voices and they are both practicing muslims Heather is from wisconsin and she actually converted after meeting her now ex husband and after starting a family with him.

You can use the public transport you can use electricity of course but Then again you're restricted under the type of media you use the books you read The people you hang out with the your your Communication with other people with other lick of other religions or faiths should be kept to bare. Minimum necessities spreading. Islam is included in that communication. But yet but the but the thing is been generally muslims throughout the world are more pragmatic than you think.

And not even know it but farrakhan will convince you of that and he will trick you and he will make you feel bad about yourself just for being white. There will be no precedent. There'll be no premise for it. Just the fact that you have white skin and he's allowed to get away with this. You know what else he got away with he. He openly endorsed trump. Because a lot of people are always asking. Well how come. The democrats won't condemn louis farrakhan. How come the republicans won't louis farrakhan is a devout conservative end disaggregation est and the nation of islam is about having a black state. They want to have a country. That's just black people than what. I've want any white people to be there because all white people are devils. C doesn't matter if they do anything good or not and so they wanna go back to segregation and it makes perfect sense that the republican party would be very interested in that and so they've dealt with the nation of islam over down through the decades since it was initiated. Really i mean probably took a while to get you know. The white supremacists in there. But i've talked about another shows. We know that the nation of islam met with white supremacist.

Wrote that said well if you really get into real nutrition. It's very difficult to to know what diet you'll need at what age and you know depending upon your body type and so there's several factors that goes into diets and so you could have a diet that could work at one point in your life and that doesn't work in another and so you're strictly regulate someone's diet it's controlling and it's called lake to control people eat into say that well in order for you to be a member of my clan to eat the way that i tell you eat so already from the beginning. It's odd that you're really what you're doing when you tech a person's food you're attacking their culture and telling them that the culture and the place that they came from before and that people who eat in in that way or bad you're communicating that. If it's not intentional that still you're communicating and that's very important and so when we get into you know the nation of islam coming out and saying that they condemn violence.

I'm not even convinced that evil exist and so to say that someone is concept that someone is born as a concept that is a human concept that was created by humans. This judgment we call.
