What about this bastard named Schmo?
Just why can’t he go with the flow?
He’s stirring the pot
Is that all he’s got?
Bet Homer’s more serious… d’oh!

Ain't this great?
DCP is educating the planet about Islam.
What's next lesson? Let me guess....
How to conquer the world through Jihad.
How to achieve gender equity in Iran, Saudi Arabia.
Great quotes of Quran.
How to establish a democratic society in a towel-head led male society....
They could always use a man like you DCP.
Damnright! Don't apologize to nobody.

Solo, just out of curiosity, have you ever listened to any lectures DCP has given on Islam?

Did you?

I have. Not only listened to them, but spoke directly with him about his views of Islam in Australia, and in general.

Woah, Schmo. You're a limerick writer extraordinaire!

Shades must have liked them all. Not a single critique! :cool:

Oh?

I simply became overwhelmed and couldn't keep up is all. (Sorry, Some Schmo.) If I still had the energy, trust me, the red ink would still be flyin'.

Awww, come on! There's a ton of potential critique there just screaming for red ink (Isn't it obvious I spent no more than 2 minutes on each?) Pick the worst one then and let me have it. Don't be a wuss.

(Can Shades be goaded by trash talk? We shall see...)

So,

The Federal Member of Parliament for Cowan (Western Australia) noted:

Federal Member for Cowan in Western Australia, The Hon Graham Edwards MP, recently presented at the Brigham Young University
Kennedy Centre for International Understanding in Provo, Utah. He
spoke fondly of his relationship with the Church in Australia, and of
the fond relationship politically between Australia and the United
States. He recalled several of his positive connections with the Church over the years, including the recent visit of Professor Daniel C. Petersen of BYU who spoke at Parliament House, sharing his vast knowledge and expertise on Iran...


From the University of Queensland:

High-quality translations of ancient Islamic texts provide an important bridge to understanding the current conflict in the Middle East, according to an international visiting scholar.

Professor Daniel C Peterson, one of the few scholars in the world today translating Islamic texts into English, will discuss his work and its significance at a public lecture at The University of Queensland on Tuesday, September 5.


(A podcast is available in this link. Maybe you should listen and then make a judgement?)

He also lectured at Murdoch University and the Australian National University, and met with Islamic leaders in Australia.

Whatever you may think of DCP's apologetics, his work on Islam is quite significant. Give credit where it is due.

Well, didn't I react like a radical SoB?
Actually no. I should be happy...Hell I won the "Genetic Lottery".
While 80% of my ancestors got slaughtered in worst imaginable ways, I am sitting pretty: Family, kids, money....
I have all.
Like I said; I won the genetic lottery.
Enjoy significant contribution of DCP.
