Juan Williams, Islam, NPR and the PC Movement

Interestingly, it was along with the affirmation “I’m not a bigot” that Juan Williams has been labeled a bigot and fired for breaking the commandments of the politically correct (PC) movement.

He has been fired from the partially tax payer funded liberal propaganda machine National Public Radio (NPR) for stating:

I’m not a bigot. You know the kind of books I’ve written about the civil rights movement in this country.

But when I get on the plane, I got to tell you, if I see people who are in Muslim garb and I think, you know, they are identifying themselves first and foremost as Muslims, I get worried.

I get nervous.

There is much to be stated on this issue and many directions in which the comments could go, for example: just as soon as Scotsmen are perpetrating terrorist acts worldwide then when you see a guy in a kilt getting on an airplane it would only be normal, natural and human to get worried and nervous.

Muslims are still shoving the Crusades in the faces of Christians today; Christians who were not alive one thousand years ago. This goes to show that, just or unjust-fair or unfair, we must often suffer for the actions of those who placed upon themselves the same labels we place upon ourselves. Christians for the Crusades, Muslims for modern day terrorism, atheists for…well, atheist refuse to accept the historic realities of history as recent as the 20th century, but that is another issue (one discussed here).

I actually had precisely the experience described by Juan Williams well, almost the same.

I was waiting to board an airplane and noted four Muslim in full garb, in their traditional regalia waiting for board.

I prayed.

Indeed.

I prayed to YHVH.

I did.

I did no get worried for even a second, however.

I did no get nervous in the least bit.

I prayed to YHVH and asked that one of them end up sitting next to me.

My aisle had three seats next to each other: I got the window seat, a woman sat by the aisle and…sure enough: one of the Muslims sat right next to me.

I was thrilled and we ended up discussing theology for virtually the entire flight.

This is where Juan Williams can either be said to have gone wrong or to not have told the full story, if he has such a story to tell, which is that whether fearful or not; we can all be civil (the reference to civility is generic as Juan Williams gave no indication of being uncivil in his actions or even thoughts).

Do you consider Muslims you neighbors?

Then the Bible tells you to love and pray for them.

Do you consider Muslims you enemies?

Then the Bible tells you to love and pray for them.

Do you think that Muslims hate you?

Then the Bible tells you to love and pray for them.

Do you think that Muslims curse you?

Then the Bible tells you to love and pray for them.

Do you think that Muslims persecute you?

Then the Bible tells you to love and pray for them.

Do you think that Muslims spitefully use you?

Then the Bible tells you to love and pray for them.

Do you think that Muslims mistreat you?

Then the Bible tells you to love and pray for them.
