What if she had been reading the Koran?

Woman Escorted Off Bus For Reading Bible Aloud. If she had been Muslim and reading from the Koran, like the Imams at the airport for instance ... what would have happened? I'm just asking the question.

FORT WORTH (CBS 11 News) ― A passenger on a Fort Worth bus says the T. Bus Service discriminated against her religion.

Christine Lutz says she was reading her Bible to her children when the bus driver asked her to stop or get off the bus.

Lutz, a Seventh Day Adventist, and her children were on their way to church.

"She then said, 'Well I don't think this is the place or the time to do so.' And I said, 'Oh, but it's the perfect time and the perfect place since it is our Sabbath and it is the time with the Lord and therefore I'm going to continue.' And I continued," she explained.

Then, a TRE supervisor came on board. Lutz also told him that she would not stop reading. She and her family were escorted off the bus.

"This was definitely a clear cut case of persecution," she said. (continue reading)

Other reading I missed while out celebrating the New Year last night:

From the United American Committee:

We were just alerted that our chapter in NYC courageously jumped to action this past weekend confronting Islamist supporting traitors. The traitors were attacking a Jewish owned business. The New York UAC quickly showed up and defended the Jewish owned businesses targeted by the anti-Semites. http://www.red-alerts.com has a good report with pictures and videos of the event.

You are the moron. I happen to have college and seminary training and have studied all religions, including Islam. To compare Christianity to Islam as equals is just stupid and ignorant. Move along.

"we know that Islam at its core is lethally militaristic and institutionalizes homicide."

Just like Christianity correct? If you have read a book or two you would know this. I have studied the Bible, Qur'an, and even Satanic Bibles. I an a religious scholar.

The facts are as straight forward as you can get. The US Army's chaplains are literally 60% evangelical Christians. Not only that 40% of the entire army are evangelical. I think you are being hypocritical here to an outrageous extent. The more non-religious you get the more likely you are to never be in prison or go to war or do anything violent.

The reason being is simply that the Bible is as bloody , discriminatory, and just disgusting as the Qur'an if not more.

P.S. The Bible's God has killed more then the Qur'an.

Good thing this didn't happen in Califorlornia; the 9th ShortCircuit Kangaroo Court of Appeals of Laughter would have found for the bus company, and would have taken her kids away from her for misparenting.

There is freedom of religion, but some are more equal. If it had been the Koran, there wouldn't be a problem, even if it was a bus, think Israel and homicide bombings that happen there.

If she had been reading the koran, then Nancy Pelosi would have had another opportunity to wear her hijab. After all, as far as libtards are concerned, Islam is simply pretty colors and mosaic tiles. But for those of us who have read history books, we know that Islam at its core is lethally militaristic and institutionalizes homicide.

Hi Debbie! Happy New Year to you and yours and may it be a blessed, healthy, and prosperous one for you all.

Boy, that's a winning lawsuit if I ever saw one. As long as she wasn't being loud and obnoxious, there's no difference between reading from the Bible and having a political discussion or telling a friend about the glories of some product. That was a blatant violation of her Civil Rights, namely her rights of Freedom of Speech, Freedom from Religious Persecution, from being refused access to a public conveyance in a discriminatory manner and being threatened with assault (being forced off the bus).

I do hope she sues, and more power to her! Go get 'em, Christine.

Debbie, glad you had a good time with the band last night. A bunch of neighbors and I all got together and drank a little too much, shot off fireworks and generally disturbed the peace. It was fun.

[frasypoo]
