if any of us saw a twenty-first-century Abraham raising the knife on the roof of his apartment building, we would call the police; we would wrestle him down; even if we saw him lower the knife at the last minute, we would expect the Department of Children and Family Services to take Isaac away and charge Abraham with child abuse."

And yet, he says Islam is a great religion. Which belief is it that still stones people and whacks off their heads?

Abraham did NOT kill Issac, who was a YOUNG MAN at the time and NOT A CHILD. Further, Abraham had every expectation that Issac was not going to die. This is borne out by the statement to Issac that "...we will return."

IMO, those around Caligula had better take out fire insurance and have a goodly supply of lightening rods because this is a superlative example of taking God's name in vain. How dare Caligula presume to use God in this manner, to win votes and fool the electorate! Caligula does so and I tremble for him.
