Philip Yancey Zitate

Die Besorgnis, die Muslime für den Westen haben, beruht zum großen Teil auf unserer starken Betonung der Freiheit, die immer ein riskantes Unternehmen ist. Ich habe gehört, dass einige sagen, sie würden ihre Kinder lieber in einer streng bewachten islamischen Gesellschaft erziehen als in den Vereinigten Staaten, wo Freiheit oft zu Dekadenz führt.

If you look at the 19 hijackers who came to the United States in Sept. 11 to commit those acts, if you'd looked at them before they got onto a plane, you could probably say the same thing. There were various levels of expertise, various levels of competence.

If the Islamic world is so suffused with rage and hatred of us - for our wars, occupations, drone attacks, support of Israel, decadent culture, and tolerance of insults to Islam and the Prophet - why should we call for free elections, when the people will use those elections to vote into power rulers hostile to the United States?

If I were to look in the United States or in Europe, in some of the garages, you would have a Bentley or two Bentleys or a high-end Mercedes, and you may find a Smart also in that same garage because that person thinks it's a fun extra car to have. He may have four cars but also have a Smart because he thinks it is cute.
