ISIS operative says the threat of ISIS pretending to be refugees is NOT a fantasy
Wanting to believe against evidence that refugees from a region with a strong minority with radical religious views will not reflect the ideological make-up of the region they come from is wishful thinking.
AN OPERATIVE working for Islamic State has revealed the terror group has successfully smuggled thousands of covert jihadists into Europe.

The Syrian operative claimed more than 4,000 covert ISIS gunmen had been smuggled into western nations – hidden amongst innocent refugees.
The ISIS smuggler, who is in his thirties and is described as having a trimmed jet-black beard, revealed the ongoing clandestine operation is a complete success.
"Just wait," he smiled.

Cruz, Huckabee, Jindal preach religionism at National Religious Liberties Conference
• Cruz: "Any president that doesn't start the day on his knees isn't fit to be commander in chief,"
• Huckabee: same-sex marriage "is not law."
• Jindal: "ardently citing the need for a religious revival in the U.S." told the room that 2016 will be "the most important election of our lifetime"
U.S. Republican presidential candidate Texas Sen. Ted Cruz speaks at the Freedom 2015 National Religious Liberties Conference in Des Moines, Iowa, Nov. 6, 2015.
Passionately professing that the Supreme Court decision allowing same-sex marriage must be overturned and laying out their conservative credentials, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee and Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal pulpiteered to over 1,700 conservative Christians in Des Moines, Iowa, Friday for a two-day National Religious Liberties Conference.
Before hearing from the presidential contenders, evangelical families collected name tags, perused a table filled with books like "What does the Bible Say About That: A Biblical Worldview Curriculum for Children" and connected with other like-minded conservatives. In the dimly lit hall, Kevin Sawnson, executive director of Generations, which was hosting the event, set the tone in describing same-sex marriage as a "significant cosmic revolution against almighty God."

Religious upbringing associated with less altruism, study finds
Again, the Templeton Foundation gets study results that contradict its belief in faith.
Result of the 'fine tuning' of 'objective morality'? 
By Susie Allen - November 5, 2015 - The University of Chicago
A team of developmental psychologists led by Prof. Jean Decety examined the perceptions and behavior of children in six countries. The study assessed the children’s tendency to share—a measure of their altruism—and their inclination to judge and punish others for bad behavior.
Children from religious families were less likely to share with others than were children from non-religious families (...). A religious upbringing also was associated with more punitive tendencies in response to anti-social behavior. (...)
For the altruism task, children participated in a version of the “Dictator Game,” in which they were given 10 stickers and provided an opportunity to share them with another unseen child. Altruism was measured by the average number of stickers shared.
For the moral sensitivity task, children watched short animations in which one character pushes or bumps another, either accidentally or purposefully. After seeing each situation, children were asked about how mean the behavior was and the amount of punishment the character deserved. (NB: Muslim kids dish out the harshest punishments) (...)
Children from religious households favored stronger punishments for anti-social behavior and judged such behavior more harshly than non-religious children. (...) “Together, these results reveal the similarity across countries in how religion negatively influences children’s altruism. (...)
The study was supported by a grant from the John Templeton Foundation.

Weird videos about Sharia in the US
Mark Dice is a media analyst who shoots a 'Man on the Street Monday' series.
The routine goes like this: he takes
(A) a respected public figure: Obama, the Pope (respectable?), Elie Wiesel,..
(B) an outlandish claim: aliens just landed, Kim Il Jung is a cool guy,..
then goes to people and asks: (A) says (B), do you agree?
Example: Elie Wiesel says "Kim Il Jung is a cool guy", do you agree?
Latest installment (Nov. 2), Hillary supports Sharia Law in her platform, do you agree?
And again, people just hear Hillary, and say they agree:
I followed up on a related link (OK, it's Hannity, but the raw interview is still valid)
American Muslims saying Sharia should ideally take precedence over the Constitution.
Fundamentalist Christians, now Muslims; what's not to love?
The Costs of Hindu Extremism
The dismay that many ordinary Indian citizens feel about Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s willingness to tolerate, even encourage, the Hindu hard-liners in his own party has now spread to the financial community. Last week, Moody’s Analytics, a division of the bond rating and risk management company, warned that Mr. Modi “must keep his members in check or risk losing domestic and global credibility” — meaning, in so many words, its attractiveness to international investors.
Indian business leaders are no less alarmed. Over the weekend, N.R. Narayana Murthy, a co-founder of the Indian technology giant Infosys, lamented that “the reality today is that there is considerable fear” in the minds of the minority in India, and Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw, chairwoman and managing director of Biocon, said business leaders are “concerned with what’s happening all across the country.”
Among the sparks that have set off an extraordinary outpouring of citizen reaction are the August killing of Malleshappa Madivalappa Kalburgi, a 76-year-old critic of Hindu idolatry, and Mr. Modi’s tardy condemnation of the lynching of a Muslim man in September by a Hindu mob enraged by a rumor that his family had killed a cow and eaten its meat.
