Christian Pastor Denied Access to Airport Chapel by Muslims
https://www.toddstarnes.com/faith/christian-pastor-denied-access-to-airport-chapel-by-muslims/
Excerpt:
A Christian pastor was denied access to the chapel at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport by a Muslim cleric.
Tom Ascol, a prominent Southern Baptist pastor, wrote on social media that he had been in Dallas to visit the grieving family of Voddie Baucham, a renowned pastor and scholar. Baucham suffered an emergency medical incident and died on Thursday. He was 56.
Ascol said that he heard an announcement inviting passengers to visit the Meadows Chapel for a prayer service. The announcement included the phrase “all are welcome.”
“With broken heart I went hoping maybe Scripture would at least be read,” Ascol wrote on X. “Instead I found this & was denied access. Imam-led Salah.”
Ascol posted a photograph of Muslims inside the chapel on prayer rugs. The pastor tells he was physically blocked from entering the room.
“They blocked my way in the inner room,” Ascol told me. “A man who had offered a loud prayer, not the Imam, said I could come in if I took my shoes off. I refused. He would not let me walk in. I did not want to create a scene a I left. Muslim prayer rugs lined the floors.”
Ironically, the chapel was dedicated to the military service of the men and women of Texas.
Dozens of people engaged in Ascol’s post sharing similar incidents that had happened at other airports.
“Denied access to a chapel built in honor of our American military men and women!? This needs to be looked into,” one person wrote. “I’m so sorry! Thankfully our Lord is THE Lord and he hears our prayers before our hearts even groan to find words.”
“Welcome to America, where we promote the Islam faith over all else in the name of inclusion,” another wrote.
So, why were Christians denied access? We’ve reached out to DFW airport officials for an explanation.

More reason Muslim enclaves need to be checked by ICE for immigration status. Would bet majority are illegals.
Can’t appeal an acquittal though, unless you find different/more recent violations…
Court Throws Out Case After Finding Plaintiffs Submitted Deepfake Videos and Altered Images
https://reason.com/volokh/2025/09/25/court-throws-out-case-after-finding-plaintiffs-submitted-deepfake-videos-and-altered-images/
************************************************************
The case is Mendones v. Cushman & Wakefield, Inc., decided Sept. 9 by Judge Victoria Kolakowski (Cal. Super. Ct. Alameda County). Here’s a short excerpt; the whole opinion (including copied images and detailed analysis) is worth reading:
The Court finds that Plaintiffs violated section 128.7(b) of the Code of Civil Procedure by submitting fabricated evidence in support of their motion for summary judgment….
The Court finds that exhibits 6A and 6C are products of GenAI and do not capture the actual speech and image of Geri Haas. In other words, these exhibits are deepfakes….
While the “person” depicted in exhibits 6A and 6C bears a passing resemblance to the person depicted in exhibit 36, they are not the same person. The accent, cadence, volume, word choice, pauses, gestures, and facial expression, among other characteristics, of the person depicted in exhibit 36 are vastly different from those demonstrated by the “persons” depicted in exhibits 6A and 6C….
The court also found other alterations, and concluded:
The Court finds that a terminating sanction is appropriate. This sanction is proportional to the harm that Plaintiffs’ misuse of the Court’s processes has caused. A terminating sanction serves the appropriate remedial effect of denying Plaintiffs— and other litigants seeking to make use of GenAI to submit video testimonials—of the ability to further prosecute this action after violating the Court’s and the Defendants’ trust so egregiously.
Further, a terminating sanction serves the appropriate deterrent effect of showing the public that the Court has zero tolerance with attempting to pass deepfakes as evidence.
This sanction serves the appropriately chilling message to litigants appearing before this Court: Use GenAI in court with great caution.
The plaintiffs were self-represented.
Louisiana Court of Appeal Judge Scott Schlegel ([Sch]Legal Tech) has more, with some warnings for the future; an excerpt:
The Mendones case is a warning shot. It shows the cost of letting AI forgeries seep into the system. The deepfakes in that case were crude enough that the judge could spot them, but the technology has already advanced to the point where many of us would struggle to tell the difference. Thankfully, Louisiana and the Federal Courts [details in Judge Schlegel’s post] are beginning to sketch a better path, but we are racing the clock. Because once trust is broken, no amount of technology can put it back together again.
Deepfakes in the courtroom are no longer hypothetical. They are here. And the clock is ticking. The crude fakes of today will soon look primitive, yet they are already capable of wasting judicial resources and undermining trust.
UPDATE: Here’s what the judge said to explain why she didn’t refer the matter to the prosecutor’s office:
The Court finds that referral for criminal prosecution is not appropriate. Plaintiffs’ submission of fabricated evidence brings to the Court’s mind two Penal Code statutes [concerning perjury and forgery]…. The Court finds that a sanction referring Plaintiffs for criminal prosecution is simultaneously too severe and not sufficiently remedial. The sanction is too severe as even being the subject of a criminal investigation may lead to social repercussions that persist after the criminal proceedings close.
This civil judicial officer does not have the expertise and experience to balance all relevant considerations to determine whether a matter should be referred to the District Attorney for a criminal investigation. At the same time, a referral would do little to address the harm that Plaintiffs have caused in this civil proceeding.
**************
Thew judge should have filed criminal charges against the plaintiffs. The plaintiffs basically committed forgery, fraud and perjury. But the case highlights the use of AI and its downfalls.
