ugh . . . feels like i'm under a cloud. i suppose it's emotional. i feel like i'm thinking alright which is not usually how i feel when i'm in an emotional funk. but the headaches and nausia aren't helping . . . ugh.

tomorrow's the last day of house sitting. it's been pretty chill. no keggers. Their dog is a pretty sweet dog, a little angry faced lassa apsa (sp.?). he's an excited little rascal.

i'm reading "what every american needs to no about the quran". it's pretty good i guess. it doesn't back up alot of it's claims assuming alot of them to be common knowledge, but what it does back up (which is a decent amount) it backs up with pretty reputable sources/names. If even half of it's claims are true (and if the quotes from the quran are well contexted) then Islam really is a complilation of some of the greatest Christian heresies in history combining pagan-arab religions, with false christianity, and judaism. it makes the distinction between moderate muslims and extreme ones, the difference being that moderate muslims believe that islam will conquor the world eventually whereas the extreme muslims believe that they themselves are the ushers of a new islamic reign. the book makes it seem as if the "peaceful muslims" and the radicals are actually on the same side and just have different ideas about timing, which, if true, poses a very troubling set of circumstances for christians and secular governments. if not, then it's all bollyhoo.

i've been reading alot of Roman Catholic literature lately. mostly stuff on the primacy of peter/rome and christian priesthood. interesting.

What I wonder is how is it that Radical Islam is able to appeal to so many people while Radical Christianity is such a small movement. They both have similar goals; ie. being the instrument of the apocalypse through a very fast change in the balance between believers and unbelievers.

Maybe its just because Radical Christianity is centered in the US, and we're just too rich and complacent to be a good recruiting ground for radicals.
