“I am Christian, I go to church. My child is a church boy. The bad thing is Islam,” said his mother. Yet the churches have no response whatsoever to concerted efforts by Muslim groups to convert Christian young people to Islam. They wouldn’t dare respond: it might harm their wonderful “Muslim-Christian dialogue.” Isn’t that right, […]

NPR touts Muhammad’s example as means to counter “extremism”
This article is more ridiculous than most. Muhammad loved dates, melons and cucumbers and that’s supposed to make Muslims less susceptible to “extremist propaganda”? His non-snoring blowing sound while sleeping is supposed to make Muslims “emphasize charity and respect for other faiths”? “Hassan argues that if Muslims had more knowledge of how the Prophet Muhammad […]
Jonathan Power and the “Expressio Unius…”
Jonathan Power, a well-known foreign-affairs columnist for the past 30 years, whose work now appears in 40 papers, has latterly become a prominent Defender of the Faith (that faith being Islam), and has just produced one more of those bizarre defenses of Islam that we long-suffering Infidels keep receiving, world without end. In his latest […]
David Wood video: Fact-checking “10 Lies You Were Told about Islam”
David Wood of Answering Muslims fact-checks the viral video “10 Lies You Were Told about Islam,” which (surprise, surprise) turns out to be full of lies itself.
UK university Islamic Society head planned drive-by murder of soldiers
Majeed is a former chairman of the King’s College Islamic Society. Why didn’t the benign, peaceful Islam that he presumably learned there help him withstand the allegedly twisted, hijacked version of Islam proffered by the Islamic State? “London Uni Islamic Society leader planned drive-by murder of soldiers, court told,” by Katie Mansfield, Express, March 11, […]
UK: Bid to ban Muslims from replacing UK laws with Sharia courts
This shouldn’t even be controversial. But it is likely it won’t pass. “Bid to ban Muslims from replacing UK law with Sharia courts to be put before MPs TODAY,” by David Maddox, Express, March 11, 2016: A private members bill due to be voted on today would stop religious organisations from pretending to be able […]
The Islamic jihad against Christendom started before anyone ever heard of a Crusade
A welcome bit of truth amid the enveloping propaganda. “Tracing the roots of Islamic jihad,” by James A. Lyons, Washington Times, March 10, 2016 (thanks to Jim): In an earlier column in these pages, “Reforming Islam,” I documented the need for Islam to experience an internal reformation. This is not just a question of abstract […]
Muslim poses making Islamic State sign with AK-47, family says it was a joke
And you’ve got to admit, supporters of the Islamic State are known for their puckish sense of humor. “Montrealer linked to suspected terrorism may have spent time in Syria,” CBC News, March 10, 2016: Radio-Canada has learned that a Montreal man, who was arrested last week in Gatineau, Que., on suspicion that he may be […]
Minnesota: Youth sports, jobs, mental health groups get cash to fight terror
This will fix the problem right up. A young Muslim who has become convinced that it is his responsibility before Allah to “strike terror into the hearts of the enemies of Allah” (Qur’an 8:60) and “fight until religion is all for Allah” (Qur’an 8:39) will give it all up for a job at Walmart and […]
The Same God Question – Part 4: Eschatology and the End of Days
Jesus is coming soon, but which Jesus? (Continued from Part 1, Part 2, and Part 3) The “End of Days,” or Eschatology, also referred to as the Apocalypse, reveals much about Islam and Christianity, and the Same God Question.
