		<description><![CDATA[Liberalism, Homosexualism and Religion...

You know, one of the basic facts that we tend to forget about as human beings is the existence and the nature of Satan.  In fact, our societies have become so arrogant that they refuse to acknowledge the evils in the world by that term...and would rather leave them to the ambiguity of a term such as &quot;evil&quot; (these peaople claim too much intelligence to believe such nonesense about beings called satans that lurk around and whisper in our hears).

The Islamic concept about that which is &quot;evil&quot; defines the collaboration between Satan and the &quot;nafs&quot; Arabic for &quot;self&quot;.  Eventually what seems to happen to civilizations is that they get to a point when their power is so great and they become so mighty that they forget where this might and power came down from and that GOD and GOD alone is the posessor of all power and all might.

This is extremely important to point out especially when looking at such grave matters as homosexualism.  Keeping in mind the following Ayah (verse) from Surat Al-Kahf (the Cave):
verses 28 and 29:

And keep yourself (O Muhammad ) patiently with those who call on their Lord (i.e. your companions who remember their Lord with glorification, praising in prayers, etc., and other righteous deeds, etc.) morning and afternoon, seeking His Face, and let not your eyes overlook them, desiring the pomp and glitter of the life of the world; and obey not him whose heart We have made heedless of Our Remembrance, one who follows his own lusts and whose affair (deeds) has been lost.

And say: &quot;The truth is from your Lord.&quot; Then whosoever wills, let him believe, and whosoever wills, let him disbelieve. Verily, We have prepared for the Zalimun (polytheists and wrong-doers, etc.), a Fire whose walls will be surrounding them (disbelievers in the Oneness of Allah). And if they ask for help (relief, water, etc.) they will be granted water like boiling oil, that will scald their faces. Terrible the drink, and an evil Murtafaqa (dwelling, resting place, etc.)! 

I think it&#039;s very importnat for any one that is reading the literature of the Muslim homosexualists to keep this in mind...more importnatly, the Muslims themselves need to keep that in mind, homosexualists or not.  The homosexualists currently find company in the fringe groups that are basically calling on Islam to be nothing more than occasional prayer and fasting.  Unfortunately, these groups fail to realze how full and complete Islam and its scholarship are simply in order to gain some peace of mind in order to satisfy their lusts.  I end with the words of the translation of the words of God &quot;The Truth is from your Lord&quot;  Please...make a will to believe.
God knows best.
Assalamu alaikum.]]></description>
