The sign in front of the Church of the Nazarene in Sunnyvale, promoting a sermon by Sunday's guest speaker, is raising a few eyebrows.
Guest speaker Donald Fareed said the sermon he will deliver is intended to explain to Nazarene church members how he arrived at his own decision to convert to Christianity. It is not, he said, a spiritual attack on Islam. In fact, far from it.

Of the many lies promoted in this country by the media about Islam, the greatest is probably that it has so many adherents. The fact is that most Muslims are prisoners of that predatory religion. If you remove the threat of retribution by the Islamic fascists, most so-called Muslims would probably choose Christianity over the religion of death, that has been forced upon them throughout the millennia.
That is what the Islamic fascists fear the most about Christianity.
Is that so? Once suspects that liberals are once again using the proles for their Marxist social agenda.

He got tired of all the peace sermons.
If anyone comes to me and does not hate his father and mother, his wife and children, his brothers and sisters--yes, even his own life--he cannot be my disciple. Luke 14:26
For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law. And a man's foes shall be they of his own household Matt. 10:35-36

Oh someone got offended. Well I was offended on September 11, 2001. Muslims are the scum of the Earth. Yes I said that. They can all take a flying leap.
Well, the title *is* inflammatory. It should have read, "Why I left Islam for Christianity".
(however, nothing in the preceding should, NTS, be construed to in any way imply that I would under any circumsatances refrain from deliberately offending moozelims at every available opportunity...)
I've read the Koran. It tells Muslims to kill Christians and Jews wherever they can find them. So don't give us that crap. Moooohamid, was a murderous terrorist who taught his followers to convert with the sword. I think it's you who needs to read a book. Read the history of Islam. Read the Haddiths. Read the Koran. Then read the Bible and stay the heck away from Islam. There is nothing peaceful about a religion that promises 70 virgins to anyone who blows themselves up and takes a few Jews with them. This isn't intolerance, it's just facts. If you're offended, get over it. You don't have a constitutional right to not be offended.
If a life-long Muslim decides to abandon Islam and converts to, say, Christianity, or even Hinduism, whether he be in Mosul or Detroit or Amsterdam, realistically, what are his options, from a social acceptance point of view?
CA....

How right you are. Christians aren't allowed to offend anyone but everyone is allowed to offend Christians. That is THE double standard of all time.
It is obvious you know nothing about Islam. It is also obvious that you know nothing about the Middle East sans Islam either. The Middle Eastern culture is the most open doored culture you will ever meet. It is a culture that if you are invited to dinner, the host will fight to the death for your safety while in his care. Not predatory at all. Protectionist is a far better description.
It IS Islam that created and fosters the blood bath that the Middle East has become, and is now engendering the blood bath that the entire world is in as Islam is attempting its second attempt at world domination. The first attempt caused the dark ages, this one, with nuclear weapons may simply exterminate human kind.
All with the help of terrorist enablers like you.
Your ignorance is astounding-- read all of these, and get back to us later, if your account survives:
Islam, The Religion of Peace® ? Click this picture:
yes that's right, they believe in Jesus and that he is the Messiah
Actually they don't recognize Jesus as the Messiah, they demoted him to just another prophet.
