UAE: Internet providers ordered to ban man who “insulted Islam” by registering on Facebook as “الله (Allah)”
Oh, the opportunities for mischief: “الله became a fan of Emerson, Lake and Palmer.” “الله became a fan of tube tops.” “الله and the Flying Spaghetti Monster are now friends.” “الله is attending Monster Truck Mayhem.” But alas, Khomeini’s pronouncement rings true again: there is no humor in Islam. There is, on the other hand, […]

Pakistani Christian burned alive, wife raped by police for refusing to convert to Islam
The Qur’an says there is “no compulsion in religion ” (2:256) but Islamic law and the Qur’an itself are actually full of subtle and not-at-all-subtle means of coercion of non-believers (e.g., dhimmi status, the jizya tax, and of course, warfare). Add to that a situation where authorities, steeped in hatred of unbelievers (cf. Qur’an 98:6) […]

Naivete. “Moderate Muslims speak, but they are rarely heard,” from the Houston Chronicle, March 18: Recently two events have occurred that describe opposing views of how some Muslims see the world.

NPR offers smooth deceptions about the Qur’an’s teaching on jihad
Here we go again: more smooth lies, half-truths, detours and deceptions — anything to keep us from looking squarely at the jihad doctrine as delineated by the Qur’an and Sunnah. It’s interesting that Philip Jenkins gets a big feature on NPR for claiming that the Bible is more violent than the Qur’an — when NPR […]
Misunderstander of Islam actually understands Islam well enough
In this article, David Pugliese does his best to portray Ghulam Rasol as an illiterate, manipulated naif, operating (no doubt) according to a twisted, hijacked version of Islam — a classic Misunderstander of the Religion of Peaceâ„¢.
