Submitting to Islam, coming soon to a bus near you!

Appropriate that these CAIR/ICNA-backed ads that say “ISLAM – Submission to God” ads are now appearing in  San Francisco. But there has been nary a peep of comment or protest about these ubiquitous in-your-face ads.

Such was not the case a few weeks ago in Ft. Lauderdale, however, which is one of the cities where the ads first appeared on buses. As reported in the Miami Herald, Fort Lauderdale mayor Jim Naugle joined a protest against the same ad campaign. While the protest did not succeed in getting the ads removed, it highlighted the fact the the ads were co-sponsored by the Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA) and the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) — a fact which can be easily confirmed with a little research: The ads themselves link to www.whyislam.org, which states at the bottom of the page that it is a project of ICNA; ICNA’s local chapter has a page on its own site about creating the ISLAM ad campaign in San Francisco; that page also lists CAIR as a co-sponsor (along with many other Muslim groups); and CAIR’s own site “Calling Islam” has many photos, links, and press releases about the ad campaign on its home page. So there’s no question that the ads are an ICNA and CAIR co-project.

    Wow – talk about in-your-face religion!! Where the heck are the atheist activists??? I envision the “Why worship a God? Just be good for goodness sake” signs alongside the “Islam=submission to God” in a display of diversity!!!! Oh, I forgot, atheists only protest Christianity, not Islam. Funny thing, Christians let atheists believe as they wish. Would Islamists??? We may yet see.
