Buddhist on Islam

I just bumped into a quotation from a Buddhist monk concerning Islam. It was a bit of a shocker given what I perceive as the gentleness of Buddhism. The quote goes like this….”You can be full of kindness and love, but you cannot sleep next to a mad dog. If we are weak, our land will become Muslim”.

This monk is not from the United States. He is from another country far away, but whose county is threatened with take over by Islam as is the United States and as is Europe. He lives in a Buddhist dominated country. We live in a Christian founded country along with that of all western Europe countries.

We have been warned time and time again. We were warned by Tulsi Gabbard when she was the Director of National Intelligence. We were warned most recently by Robert F. Kennedy Jr as the Secretary of Health and Human Services. Both were crystal clear in their warnings.

So, we cannot let our guard down. We must ban all Islam related practices in public life. This includes the banning of Sharia Law in all states by statute. We must not tolerate catering to Islam practices like foot washing in public facilities or the broadcast into public air of a call to prayer.

The creep of Islam has begun. We see more and more Muslim political candidates showing up. In the USA it is Islamist Communists. We see Zohran Mamdani as mayor of New York City; a true Islamist Communist. We see Abdul Mohammad El Sayed as a candidate for the US Senate in Michigan; another Islamist Communist. And there are many more around the country.

The infiltration of radical Islam into the United States of American must be stamped out. The USA is a Christian based country. Christianity and Islam are not compatible. The fact is they are mortal enemies. Europe is finally learning that. We are seeing moves in France and Germany that show the native populations are waking up.

It is time to stop all immigration of Islam believers into the USA. No more and those here illegally must be rounded up and sent back where they came from. Maybe even the de-naturalization of immigrant US citizens who are Islamic disrupters will be necessary.

Islam was defeated in Europe militarily hundreds of years ago. Now the plague of Islam is attempting to spread over Europe and now to the United States of America. It must be stopped in the incubation stage and not allowed to sicken the nation. Islam is not willing to live peacefully with all other of the world’s religions or with the US Constitution. Just look around the world where there is violence and strife and you will find Islam at the core. As the Buddhist monk said: “a mad dog”, indeed.

Islamist Wake Up

It appears Europe may finally be waking up! Two countries, Poland and Hungary, woke up long ago. They both made it crystal clear that Islam and Christianity are not compatible and that those who are Islam believers are not welcome in either country.

History tells us that European countries are firmly based in Christianity beliefs and culture. This has been the case from their founding. Muslims have tried in the past to infiltrate Europe but were turned back militarily.

In recent times, the Muslim invasion has been by mass immigration, much of it illegal immigration, to all of Europe. Finally, the people of Europe are waking up and fighting back.

France is the most recent example of a EU country that is seeing emigration of Islamists. The foundation culture of France and that of immigrant Muslims never mixed. Assimilation never happened and it never was going to given the differences in beliefs and religious foundations at work. Good for France.

Unrest and unwelcoming is rising in Great Britain and Spain and Germany as well. Native populations are getting fed up with the problems that have come with mass immigration of people from the Islamic world. It is time for Europe to fight for Christian based European culture, their very foundations.

In the United States of America we are also seeing an influx of Islamists. Already we have Muslim dominated cities like Dearborn, Michigan. We are seeing pockets where Sharia law based upon teaching of the Koran is actually being applied. We have states that have by statute banned Sharia law: Arizona, Kansas, Louisiana, South Dakota, Tennessee, North Carolina, and Alabama so far. Such a ban needs to be nationwide.

Islam and Sharia law are not compatible with the United States Constitution. That is abundantly clear. There is no way one who is an Islam believer can ever hold political office in the United States given the Oath one takes to uphold the Constitution and defend it against enemies both foreign and domestic. In a sense, Islamists are “domestic terrorists”.

Islam is an aggressive religion bent upon dominance of the world. Look now around the world where their is armed conflict, terrorism, and even murder of Christians and you will find Islam at the core.

The answer: no more Islamist immigrants from anywhere in the world and deportation of as many as possible including de-naturalization of citizenship, if needed and, of course, all illegal aliens. And zero tolerance of any Islam practices counter to US law, the Constitution, and the practice of the Christian faith.

Interesting that many other of the world religions have no issues with side-by-side existence. It seems to be only Islam that is the trouble maker world wide.

The Danger of Islam

FACTS DON’T LIE…!!!

There are patterns that are obvious… Draw your own conclusions! Pause a moment, reflect back. These events are actual events from history. They really happened!

Do You Remember?

  • In 1968 , Bobby Kennedy was shot and killed…By a Muslim male.
  • In 1972 at the Munich Olympics, athletes were kidnapped and
    massacred…By Muslim males.
  • In 1972 a Pan Am 747 was hijacked and eventually diverted to an Arab
    country where a fuse was lit on final approach and it was blown up shortly after landing…By Muslim males.
  • In 1973 a Pan Am 707 was destroyed in Rome, with 33 people killed, when it was attacked with grenades…By Muslim males.
  • In 1979 , the US embassy in Iran was taken over…By Muslim males.
  • During the 1980’s a number of Americans were kidnapped in Lebanon…By Muslim males.
  • In 1983 , the US Marine barracks in Beirut was blown up…By Muslim males.
  • In 1985 , the cruise ship Achille Lauro was hijacked and a 70 year old American passenger was murdered and thrown overboard in his wheelchair…By Muslim males.
  • In 1985 , TWA flight 847 was hijacked at Athens, and a US Navy diver trying to rescue passengers was murdered…By Muslim males.
  • In 1988 , Pan Am Flight 103 was bombed…By Muslim males.
  • In 1993 , the World Trade Center was bombed the first time…By Muslim males.
  • In 1998 , the US embassies in Kenya and Tanzania were bombed…By Muslim males.
  • On 9/11/01 , four airliners were hijacked; two were used as missiles to take down the World Trade Centers and of the remaining two, one crashed into the US Pentagon, and the other was diverted and crashed by the passengers. Thousands of people were killed…By Muslim males.
  • In 2002 , the United States and Canada and others fought a war in Afghanistan…Against Muslim males.
  • In 2002 , reporter Daniel Pearl was kidnapped and beheaded by…By Muslim males.
  • In 2012 … US Consulate attacked in Benghazi…By Muslim males.
  • In 2013 … Boston marathon bombers…By Muslim males.
  • In 2013… VIA Rail bombing thwarted…By Muslim males.

    Between 2013 and early 2024, extremist organizations such as the Islamic State (ISIS), Al-Shabaab, and the Taliban carried out tens of thousands of attacks worldwide. A comprehensive study by the Fondation pour l’innovation politique, a French think tank, recorded 56,413 Islamist terrorist attacks during this time frame, which caused over 204,900 deaths.

    Now we are at war with Iran which is ruled by radical Islamists whose goal is to dominate the world. When she was the Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard warned the nation in at least two major speeches about the dangers of Islam. It is time to wake up and take heed. Islam is not compatible with the foundations and culture of the United States of America, a Christian based nation. It is not compatible with Western European culture, also Christian based. Look at what is happening in Europe.

    Islam followers are not willing to live in peace with the world’s other religions. So, Islam must never be allowed to have a significant presence in the USA. Never!

Save America Act

[Open Letter to Senator John Thune]

Senator John Thune
Majority Leader
United States Senate
Washington DC 20510

Senator Thune:

This is from a small voice in North Central Indiana.

We are counting on you to get the SAVE AMERICA ACT passed in the Senate. The House of Representatives has done its job – twice. The Senate has failed to act to secure the safety of our federal elections. We do not understand why.

Please do whatever is necessary to get this act passed and on to the President’s desk for signing.

Too often from where we live, we believe the Republicans in Congress generally are too timid, too slow to act, or maybe bought off by lobbyists. Not a good picture. With mid-terms coming, Republicans in Congress need to get backbones and get things done.

Thank you. We are counting on you.

Sincerely,
Kent H Blacklidge Ph.D.

Chinese Students

Senator Todd Young
Senator Jim Banks|
Representative Victoria Spartz
Representative Jim Baird

To All:

I write to call your attention to the lead article on page one of the Jan 14-20 issue of The Epoch Times. I hope you will have your staff obtain a copy of the full article. It is long and comprehensive. Headline: “Behind the Group That Controls Chinese Students in US”.

I have written about this subject before. It involves the presence of Chinese students at both Purdue and Indiana University, but particularly at Purdue. The subhead of the Epoch Times article says, “Chinese students in America are pressured to ‘fight with all their might for the motherland”.

The message from the Chinese government to all Chinese students in American universities is clear: copy and steal everything you can to send back to China. And we let that happen!

The largest student organization on Purdue’s campus is the “Chinese Students and Scholars Association”. This at one of our nation’s largest research universities: Purdue. As a multi-graduate of Purdue, I say to myself, “What the HELL is going on?”. Are we stupid or what?

I realize that Chinese students on campus bring many millions of dollars to universities and to the support services around them. So, the answer must be greed on the part of universities. In a July 2025 article, I read there are about 277,000 Chinese students currently in the US. I also read somewhere that President Trump is OK with up to about 600,000 such students.

Money!!!! I have read that some universities would have to close without the money from such as China coming in. My opinion: TOO BAD. My years at Purdue as a graduate student even at middle age told me the staffing bloat is huge. I suspect most large universities need an Elon Musk DOGE exposure and drastic cuts much like was needed in the federal government.

We have known for decades that foreign students have stolen intellectual property worth trillions from our research and technology institutions. Yet we continue to allow it in the name of money. We must be crazy.

Again, I hope you will have someone seek out the full article for you. It is important for you to not turn a blind eye to this. As you can tell, this entire matter makes me really angry. It is long past time to cut off the flow of vital research and information to enemies. 

Sincerely,
Kent H Blacklidge Ph.D.

Something Stinks!

[Open Letter to Indiana State Senator Jim Buck]

Senator Buck:

The stench from the Indiana Senate reeks of political BS. This smells of RINO Todd Young, Mike Pence, and Mitch Daniels. All twenty one Republican Senators that voted NO to redistricting need to be sent home in the next election. You have put the country at risk if it turns out the two Indiana seats mean the difference in a GOP House of Representatives or a Democrat one. Shame on you. It was never about what happens inside our state, but what happens federally. That and the fact one of Indiana’s current districts was clearly drawn based on RACE. Again, shame on you and the others. Had I still been the publisher of the Kokomo Tribune, you all would have been torched. Frankly, I hope President Trump does everything in his power to punish Indiana. We deserve it.

Our Beloved Country and Christmas

“Almighty God, who hast given us this good land for our heritage: We humbly beseech thee that we may always prove ourselves a people mindful of thy favor and glad to do thy will. Bless our land with honorable industry, sound learning, and pure manners. Save us from violence, discord, and confusion; from pride and arrogance, and from every evil way. Defend our liberties, and fashion into one united people the multitudes brought together out of many kindreds and tongues. Endue with the spirit of wisdom those to whom in thy Name we entrust the authority of government, that there may be justice and peace at home, and that, through obedience to thy law, we may show forth thy praise among the nations of the earth. In the time of prosperity, fill our hearts with thankfulness, and in the day of trouble, suffer not our trust in thee to fail; all which we ask through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.”

[This prayer taken from the Book of Common Prayer talks about the coming together of peoples from many backgrounds into a united people under the direction of Almighty God and Jesus Christ. We are a Christian nation based in a Judeo-Christian heritage. We cannot and must not allow any other religion to become a significant or dominant influencing presence in our nation. We must not allow enclaves of other religions, particularly militant ones, to become established in our nation that separate themselves from Judeo-Christian foundations upon which our nation is based.

Yes, the United States of America has a Constitutional provision that provides the government will not establish a national religion and will allow freedom of persons to practice their religion freely. The framers of the Constitution were not then concerned about Buddhism, Hinduism, or Islam or any other world religion gaining a presence in the United States of America. Times have changed. All peaceful religions have been welcomed.


Throughout the world currently where one finds conflict and intolerance, one commonly finds Islam dominance. One only has to look at what were Christian established nations in Europe to see what happens when millions of Islam believing immigrants flood in. European Christians had to beat back followers of Islam more than once historically with the latest being in the 17th Century. And look now at Nigeria where Christians are being slaughtered by followers of Islam.


“A core tenet of the Quran is that Islam is the final, complete, and the only currently accepted religion in the sight of God after the coming of the Prophet Muhammad. Therefore, while past followers of the original, uncorrupted revelations of Moses and Jesus were considered true believers, contemporary individuals, including Jews and Christians who reject the final message of the Quran, are considered disbelievers, and their path is not accepted by God after the advent of Islam.”


What more can one say.

Coward’s Way Out!

It sure appears the Indiana State Senate has taken the coward’s way out. Senator Pro Tem Rodric Bray has announced the Indiana Senate will not take up the Indiana Redistricting matter as was expected. This means voters of Indiana will not know what Senators were in favor of redistricting in Indiana more in favor of Republicans and those who were not. Frankly, this is outrageous. Indiana voters have a right to know.

Clearly, with 7 0f 9 Indiana Congressional districts being represented by Republicans, Indiana is considered a highly “Red” state; one heavily Republican. This, too, is clearly the case in the Indiana General Assembly where Republicans hold a super majority in both houses. So, what is the situation inside the State of Indiana is not the issue. The issue is what is happening at the federal level; the United States of America as a country level.

All over the country, Democrats are engaged in redistricting to increase their numbers in the U.S. House of Representatives. They have been doing this for years and continue the practice. The goal is to flip control of the US House of Representatives from now narrow Republican control to Democrat control. Control of the House by Democrats would be a disaster for the country and would totally block President Trump and MAGA goals which are now working very well. Even a flip to Democrat control would likely result in the impeachment proceedings being leveled at President Trump.

Republicans in Indiana can remain on the “high and mighty” course and not pursue redistricting. This involves two Congressional seats if flipped from Democrat to Republican means actually a four seat swing to Republicans. This could well mean the difference between a Republican verses a Democrat controlled US Congress. It could mean the difference between a positive path for our country and a very negative, destructive one.

The now two Democrat seats in Indiana are one in northwest Indiana and one in the Indianapolis area. The one in northwest Indiana is trending toward Republican anyway. The one on the Indianapolis area has a Democrat representative that is aligning himself with the extreme left wing of the Democrat Party: the AOC, Bernie Sanders, Zohran Mamdani wing.

It is time to step up with a vote in the Indiana Senate. Voters have a right to know who will vote which way. They have a right to know who to hold responsible for the future of our nation. It is that serious. Indiana needs to lead the way openly and not the coward’s way.

Wake UP!

[Below is a response to a column by Daniel Suddeath, Editor of the News and Tribune in Jeffersonville, IN, that appeared in the Kokomo Tribune on 10/30/2025 and was headed: “Our heritage doesn’t justify hate, demonization of migrants”]

Daniel:

I just read your column on migrants in the October 30th issue of the Kokomo Tribune. My conclusion: you just don’t get it. There is no hate or demonization of illegal “migrants” as you claim; but illegal aliens are in violation of U.S. law.

It is not the late 1800s or the early 1900s when mass legal migration mostly from Europe to the United States took place. It is 2025. The fact is the millions of illegal aliens in this country have broken federal law. Many, if not most, have not the qualifications required of legal immigrants…. can’t speak English, little formal education, and know little or nothing about the history and traditions of the United States of America. And we have already seen the negative effects on taxpayers’ social services, schools, and health care. Time to go back to home countries and start over: legally.

You mention Muslims. Have you taken a look at what has happened in Europe with the mass migration of largely illegal Muslim immigrants into those countries? Europe was once a collection of Christian countries that had to defeat Muslim armies hundreds of years ago. Now with the mass migration that has occurred, those same countries are faced with all sorts of negative consequences.

The Unites States of America and European countries were and are based on Judeo-Christian principles. That is history. The fact is Christianity may not be compatible with Islam. Take a look at Dearborn, Michigan. And take a look, too, at what is going on in New York City. Zohran Mamdani is dangerous.

Finally, more and more people, immigrants or otherwise, don’t make for desirable growth. I don’t think we want the USA to look like China or India; at least I don’t.

So, please pull your head out of the sand.
