I'd say exactly what they wanted me to say, with the stipulation that they beat me severely about the face, first.

Two can play the video propaganda game.

One small point - if you convert to islam (by whatever methods) and then covert to another religion - that is an automatic death sentence in many muslim counties

This is tough! I'd say, The Lord knows what's in your heart but I'd do nothing to encourage or advance them.

If a bunch of these filthy, smelly animals were holding me at gunpoint I'd pretend to follow their stupid gutter religion to save my life. God knows what is really in the heart.

"Would you submit to a forced 'conversion'?"

NO

Yes-- but I don't have a faith to begin with, so it's a slam-dunk for me. Hell, I'd kiss Osama's ass if it meant I'd be home again for my wife and daughter.

The idea is to stay alive. Saying words without any belief behind them makes those words meaningless.

John McCain "cracked" as a POW. I don't hear anyone excoriating him for selling out his country as some here are doing to Centanni for allegedly selling out his religion and his country.

I believe that Jews are not permitted to convert to another religion. While virtually every law in the Torah can be violated to save a life, I don't think that worshipping an idol or a false "diety" is allowed. THAT is what martydom is about, not being a splodeydope and murdering a bunch of innocent women and children as you commit suicide.

Of course, the Islamofascists would likely not give any Jew such a choice, as they seem to so relish the idea of sawing off the heads of living Jews, preferably slowly and in front of a camera.

As I am no authority on Jewish law, I welcome any corrections.

Somehow I think if you have your face on mud with your hands painfully tied behind your back, it's not a real conversion. They can make you say whatever they want but if you haven't converted in your mind and heart, how can this be a true conversion? I bet they don't even have to undo this to go back to their original religions. The Muslims who do this hate us all. They want to kill us whether or not we recant their so called religion.

I doubt that I would, I'd trust My Lord...however, who knows under those circumstances...those who do not have a close relationship with The Lord...most probably would.

A forced conversion is just that forced without their heart in it...without the heart conversion IT DOESN'T COUNT.

If I was convinced that they would let me go if I did what they said, I would say anything and make any video they forced me to. After I was released I would make it very clear that everything I said and did was done at the point of a gun.

I pray I'd have the strength and will to resist it with everything in me and all the added strength God would doubtless supply.

Do whatever it takes to survive and get out.

a) resist totally, would be my choice, even with beheading.

I think I'd tell them what they want to hear to save my life, because when I get back to the 'States I'd have a golden opportunity to tell the world what a satanic nest of evil bastards Mad-Mo-the-ped-a-fo has created.

I choose i)

I would resist and remain strong in my Christian faith to the point of being be-headed. I would also try to find an opportunity to kill any of my kidnappers.

Play the game, get out alive, then live for revenge. You ain't no good for the cause of freedom if you're pushing up daisies. I'm going over to vote so I have to pick one of them... LOL.

I can't honestly say what I would do because it's unlikely that I'll ever be in that situation. However I wish there was a surefire way of tracking me. If there's no hope of rescue, target me with a JDAM and take the islamderthal animals out with me.
