Anything done at the point of a gun is coercion and should be ignored.

It's terrorism nonetheless. I consider myself a very devout Christian, and I would like to think that, were I in the same situation, I'd reject their demand, thereby (very likely) risking my life. But who knows how I'd react? And if I did "go along" with it out of fear, could I look myself in the mirror from then on? I think I'd be very, very ashamed. What does one do?

My husband and I talked about this last night. He made a great point. As a Christian it is believed if we die we will go to Heaven. If you are killed you will go to Heaven where there is no worry of terrorists with guns. If you convert, you will still have terrorists holding guns on you.
