Churches Across U.S. Adopting Disturbing New Fad - 'Intro To Islam' Classes
Topics: DhimmitudeAn admirable goal indeed, but lacking critical elements:
... Many a peace-loving individual prefers to give political issues time to work themselves out. It is fundamentally Christian, after all, to believe the best of one's "enemies".I seriously doubt many clergy are astute enough or sufficiently educated to be able to distinguish the difference between radical Islam and its more moderate forms, much less have the ability to teach others about the difference and prevalence of each.... However aware of evil one believes himself to be, its real presence can escape the most sensitive amongst us. How many don't dare to look evil in the face, define it, or even speak its name? It may be simpler to refuse to believe that real evil is suddenly all around us rather than to seem paranoid or racist.
... churches across the U.S. are adopting a new fad in adult education classes: an introduction to Islam. These classes abound with the Christian ideal of tolerance. Islam is held up as equal to Judaism in partnership with Christians - the historical three faiths of Abraham. The ideal is declared: we must all work together to build a multi-cultural society of mutual understanding. An admirable goal - but it requires one missing element: that all three faiths embrace the idea of mutual respect. And many a well-meaning religious leader in America seems ignorant of The One Big Reality: radical Islam, the fundamentalist interpretation of Islam, has no interest in existing peacefully with the others - its aim is to replace them.
... Radical Islam, rather than a religion, is in fact a political ideology whose centuries-old aim is to conquer peoples the world over. Every clergyman must learn the meaning of the word "taqiyya" - the deliberate and Mohammed-sanctioned doctrine that deceit to advance the cause of Islam is a virtue. We must insist that they learn what the clearly-stated aim of radical Islam is; it is not interested in peace. A person of the cloth must have the courage as a servant of his or her flock to look evil in the face. (More)
