January 1, Mosque Test for Politicians Sparks Outrage

Published

Wyatt’s Take

  • NYC debate sparks controversy over a ‘mosque test’ for politicians.
  • America’s founders built our country on Christian principles and freedoms.
  • Mass migration with no assimilation threatens these core values.

During a recent New York City mayoral debate, socialist politician Zohran Mamdani claimed former Gov. Andrew Cuomo isn’t qualified to lead because he couldn’t name a mosque he’d visited in over a decade.

“He had more than 10 years and he couldn’t name a single mosque at the last debate we had that he visited,” Mamdani said.

“Muslims … want equality and they want respect! … Can you name a single mosque you went to in 10 years?”

Many folks see this as politicians being forced to prove themselves by visiting certain religious sites.

That kind of test goes against the founding ideals of America, where rights come from our Creator and not from government or how well politicians pander.

John Adams explained.

“One great Advantage of the Christian religion is that it brings the great Principle of the Law of Nature and Nations … to the Knowledge, Belief and Veneration of the whole People.”

The founders knew our system of self-government depends on values rooted in Christianity, and mass migration from cultures with different beliefs can challenge that foundation.

Applying a ‘mosque test’ across the board would force politicians to bend to beliefs that don’t fit with American self-rule.

This may start with mosque visits, but it could mean pushing policies that clash with the nation’s core moral and legal systems, especially as assimilation weakens.

Thomas Jefferson and John Adams questioned an Islamic ambassador about making war on non-Muslim nations.

“We took the liberty to make some inquiries concerning the Grounds of their pretentions to make war upon Nations who had done them no Injury, and observed that we considered all mankind as our friends who had done us no wrong, nor had given us any provocation,” they wrote.

The ambassador responded.

“it was founded on the Laws of their prophet… all nations who should not have acknowledged their authority were sinners, that it was their right and duty to make war upon them wherever they could be found, and to make slaves of all they could take as Prisoners, and that every Musselman [Muslim] who should be slain in battle was sure to go to Paradise.”

The way Christians are treated in certain Muslim-majority nations highlights the difference between American and Islamic worldviews.

Most countries where Christians face the worst persecution have Muslim majorities, and some ban Christian worship outright.

Judging politicians by how often they visit specific religious sites, instead of their respect for America’s founding ideals, puts pressure on the values that built this country.

Don’t let pandering or political games change what matters most to the real heart of America. Stay informed and stand up for what keeps our nation strong.

    First, I’d have asked the moslem b*st*rd if he could name a Christian church he’d been to in 10 years. When he couldn’t I’d call him out for his hypocrisy. Second I’d tell him that being a supporter of mass murdering moslem terrorists is a disqualification for being an American citizen so get out of the United States and stay out!

    We need to get back to the realization that we are a Christian nation. No, not so much in practice anymore, but it’s based on the Bible.
    The Declaration of Independence names 3 foundation principles of our country. God created human beings, He created them equal, and He gave them inalienable rights, which include the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
    But what God did these things, and how did the Founders know that He had?
    It is the God of the Bible, and it was the Bible that informed them of this. These are not beliefs in their minds, but facts.
    Islam does not believe in a right to life, and Hinduism does not believe in a right to the pursuit of happiness.
    A secular nation treats all religions equal, which means that none of them is true. They are all just opinions and preferences.
    The court called supreme was wrong to say that our government cannot favor one religion over another. We have to. We always used to teach the Bible in all our public schools. You would think the Founders would know what was Constitutional or not

    keep letting them come in and soon we will have our own hamas, isis, boko hiram, houthes, etc. A nation of fools will allow another 9/11. Block the streets off so they can pray in the streets.

    Why would that even be important? If one is of Christian faith, it’s highly unlikely that they’ve ever stepped foot in a Mosque. Just like most Muslims most likely never stepped foot in a Christian church. That’s not what voters are looking for or interested in.

    Actually our most revered “founding fathers” were not Christians in the traditional and later sense but rather were deists who rejected the divinity of Jesus and the Trinity. They included Jefferson, Franklin, Paine and John Adams. George Washington was mostly deist, skeptical of Church of Rome or Anglican divinity teachings although he was raised Anglican. Hamilton moved towards Christianity late in life but had been more a subscriber to the Enlightenment movement, as were all the others. But that’s not to say the Judeo-Christian Ethos that originated in Israel, then spread through the Holy Roman Empire and eventually the world was not foundational to Europe, America, democracy and that very Enlightenment movement that basically created the modern world.

    Wrong. The only Founding Fathers, Federalists and/or Anti-Federalists who self-identified as “Deists” were Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Paine. There are NO primary sources to support the assertions that any of the others were “Deists”. The term was employed in the late 18th century largely as a result of Christian sectarian squabbles and politically partisan attacks. Those were subsequently amplified by an increasingly secular academic intelligentsia in the interim centuries wherein our professoriate has been motivated to undermine the Judeo-Christian foundations of this political experiment. But anyone who cares to do the research will be hard-pressed to unearth factual evidence in the form of primary sources. Most of these accusations 1) do NOT adhere to an agreed upon definition of the term “Deist”, and 2) have been agenda-driven by sectarian & partisan quarrels of the 18th century, and promotion of secularism by historians of the succeeding centuries.
