Can a Muslim be a good American?

This came to me in an email. I thought it was worth a read so I cleaned it up a little.


Have you ever thought — Can a devout Muslim be an American patriot and a loyal citizen?

Is Muslim-American really an oxymoron?

Theologically, no. Because his allegiance is to Allah, the moon god of
Arabia.

Religiously, no. Because no other religion is accepted by his Allah
except Islam (Quran, 2:256)

Scripturally, no. Because his allegiance is to the five pillars of Islam
and the Quran (Koran).

Geographically, no. Because his allegiance is to Mecca, to which he
turns in prayer five times a day.

Socially, no. Because his allegiance to Islam forbids him to make
friends with Christians or Jews.

Politically, no. Because he must submit to the mullah (spiritual
leaders), who teach annihilation of Israel and destruction of America,
the great Satan.

Domestically, no, because he is instructed to marry four women and beat
and scourge his wife when she disobeys him (Quran 4:34).

Intellectually, no, because he cannot accept the American Constitution
since it is based on Biblical principles and he believes the Bible to be
corrupt.

Philosophically, no, because Islam, Muhammad, and the Quran do not allow freedom of religion and expression. Democracy and Islam cannot co-exist. Every Muslim government is either dictatorial or Autocratic.

Spiritually, no, because when we declare “one nation under God,” the
Christian’s God is loving and kind, while Allah is NEVER referred to as
heavenly father, nor is he ever called love in the Quran’s 99 excellent
names.

Therefore after much study and deliberation…. Perhaps we should be very suspicious of ALL MUSLIMS in this country. They obviously cannot be both “good” Muslims and good Americans. Call it What you wish…it’s still the truth.
