Former Muslim in Bradford is beaten up for converting to Christianity
Catholic Herald ^ | 11/19/2015 | Catholic Herald

Posted on 11/19/2015 9:57:55 AM PST by aimhigh

A Bradford man has been brutally assaulted by a gang after converting from Islam to Christianity. Father-of-six Nissar Hussain was left needing surgery after the group broke his kneecap and hand on Wednesday, with a pickaxe handle being used by one of the assailants.

Mr Hussain, 49, is recovering in hospital after the attacks, which follow a long line of incidents following his family’s conversion to Christianity over a decade ago. Mr Hussain has said that he and his family are virtual prisoners in their home as a consequence.

Regarding Mr Hussain’s case, he said: “Police officers seemed oblivious. They didn’t put it down as a hate crime. They had it down as a neighbourhood dispute. That to me was atrocious.”

His attacker will probably be killed for failing to finish the job.

Because the problem is not the person or the "religion" ...

The problem is the idea of islam ... submission


How do you fight an idea ?

With another idea?


How did islam get so wide spread ?

The people that preached that idea were allowed to preach that idea and the idea was preached so well, the preaching of Jesus was quieted and the idea of absolute submission under penalty of death ... became the (sharia) law


Introduce the ideas that destroy islam

What part of “come out from amongst them” is he and his family not getting? If it were me, I’d think about changing my name to something like “Lars” or “Pierre.”

We have not been taught the reality of the total
bloodthirsty religion of the Mohammedans. Look up
the history of the Gates of Vienna & another city
of 100,000 which allowed a few Muslims to enter the
city. The Muslims opened the city gates and let in
hordes of their buddies. The whole city was
slaughtered, women were raped, murdered & bodies
thrown in the river. - Fear? - Hell no. You’ve got
to get to where you will CHARGE HELL WITH A BUCKET
OF WATER or what ever weapon you have. Time comes
when talk is over. - If Christians hadn’t STOOD
and resisted in Europe in times gone by; we’d all be
in the caliphate today God help us!

When was the last time you read about Christians severely beating a former Christian who converted to Islam? Shouldn’t that say something about the differences in the two religions?

Somebody needs to give these troglodytes a taste of their own medicine.

N9, we would not do violence should someone choose to renounce Christ.

Instead, we would do the Ultimate nasty (according to media and the left), we would tell them we love them, they are making a mistake and they are in our prayers.

Can you hear the anger over that?
