Reflections From a Murky Pond

As I wouldn’t want to be called “Eurocentric” or anything like that, I’d like to wish you all a slightly belated Happy Holi as well as Ä’ostre. Got to keep up with the multicultural ethic, after all.

OK, OK! All sarcasm aside, I just plain forgot that yesterday was technically Holi. My wives and I actually celebrate this Hindu holiday but, like many such things in the States, when the holiday falls on a weekday the big celebrations and ceremonies are normally held on the nearest weekend. Hence, Sunday we’ll be having fun and getting colorful at this year’s Rangwali Holi.

And hey! Holi’s even more colorful than Ä’ostre.

To celebrate Ä’ostre – that’d be Easter for you Christians – this year Reflections From A Murky Pond is adding to its Beautiful Faces Project.

More and for some metrics better things come in bright, Spring colors than painted eggs, after all and beautiful women with their hair colored in such decorative manners are certainly one of them.

Oh! And, Ä’ostre being a holy day that celebrates the return of life to the world and fertility, just like the Easter Bunny, the beauties above are most definitely evocative of a more natural egg hunt. 😉

There can be little to no doubt that Liberal logic is Dhimmi logic when it comes to dealing with Muslims. Then, Liberal logic has always been predicated upon a miscegenate offspring of oikophobia and fear. It is the logic of the Heckler’s Veto crossed with that of the White Man’s Burden.

Liberal Logic – Dhimmitude 101

This is what we consistently hear from the Liberals and Progressives within our borders – that Muslims are a peaceful people … but that any action that we take to protect ourselves from their proven acts of violence and terrorism against us in the name of jihad will cause them to radicalize and become violent. These Liberals and Progressives even go so far as to claim that actually believing and accepting the existence of their jihad is a recruitment tool for the jihadis and terrorists.

Here’s what I think is a great idea, though one that came to me too late for most of us do this year.

Hey Muslims, Merry Christmas
