(CNSNews.com) - A panel of Muslims leaders and filmmakers gathered at the Heritage Foundation Thursday to speak out against violent extremists whom they believe are corrupting Islam.

"The Muslims today are mixing religion with politics," Kabbani said. "They are using religion for their own political advancement."
Contrary to many who advocate for separation of church and state, he contended that politics corrupts religion and not vice versa. He said Islam and politics were fundamentally incompatible and called on Muslim leaders to advise politicians rather than seeking to obtain power themselves.
"The real connection between God and [individuals] has to be complete and continuous," Kabbani said. "And politicians don't say the truth sometimes. Instead they use religion to get their agendas enacted."
Of course, the Islamofascists disagree with Kabbani- they're adamant that Islam and politics must be as one.
Question for the left: If you believe in keeping church and state separate, why don't you also talk about keeping mosque and state separate... particularly when Muslim politicians in the non-Islamic World attempt to impose Islamic ideology on us via politics? Why don't you tell Muslim politicians, as you do the JudeoChristian ones, to shut up about their religious beliefs in public?
