With the twin spires of the Islamic Center of America in the background, the Rev. Terry Jones praised Christianity and condemned Islam, calling it “of the devil.”
“Mohammad was a liar, a pedophile and a false prophet,” Jones said.
“I believe that as a Christian. But as an American who believes in the constitution I believe they have the right to practice their beliefs under the freedom of religion.”
Jones — who is on his fourth trip to Dearborn to preach about the dangers of Islam and its agenda of imposing Sharia law on America — also called for a worldwide burning of the Koran on April 28 if an imprisoned pastor in Iran isn’t freed from a death sentence after converting from Islam to Christianity.
“I’m asking the imam of the Islamic Center here in Dearborn to work with me to free Minister Youcef,” said Jones, of Youcef Nadarkhani, currently facing death for preaching Christianity in Iran.
“If he isn’t freed, I will ask the world to burn the Koran in protest starting at 5 p.m. on April 28th in Gainesville, Fla.”
At least 30 of Jones’ supporters — some of them openly carrying weapons on their belts as did Jones — shouted an occasional “amen” or “preach it” as Jones spoke.
The controversial pastor denied accusations that he is a racist.
“Not true,” he said. “Islam is a religion, not a race. I am not a racist.”
Jones said that not all Muslims are radicals.
“I believe the majority of the people who attend this mosque behind me believe in the constitution,” Jones said.

not sure how someone with enough intestianl fortitude to speak the TRUTH abotu Islam, knowing full well he is most liekly signign his own death warrent, in an effort to inform people that islam IS a dangerous religion, is a ‘horses ass’?
Violent death in the US? It ain’t happening here. We wil; not put up with that BS. May be why this guy will dive into this issue of muslim filth. He knows he is safe. This is not the UK after all.
See tagline...
I certainly hope you’re right.
No, you are right, this is not UK but it is the USA; but I feel our people in high places [Senators, Congressmen, and even our President] are fearful of the Muslims, and rightly so.
But the worst of it all, they continue to appease them, this is not going to work. We must in everyway make them aware we are not in the least going to compromise the principles this nation was, and is founded upon.
As our founders stood upon: “Give me liberty or give me death.” [Patrick Henry]
“....and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.”
(2 Corinthians 2:17b)
I don’t have time to figure out your logic, Murray.
Good.
I wonder what this guy pays for life insurance. lol
islam is an evil death cult that whose master is Satan..
Isn’t this the same guy who caused a big stir in Florida last year about burning Korans?
Maybe but Mohammad did marry a nine-year old and is a false prophet.
>> The controversial pastor denied accusations that he is a racist.
>> “Not true,” he said. “Islam is a religion, not a race. I am not a racist.”
Islam is a war plan.
>> He seems unreliable to me right now.
That’s how I feel about Santorum and due process.
He did create massive amounts of low grade TP/hog litter.
Bad move, turning your back to slimes! Makes stabbing the blade in easier.
They have as much right to practice a religion of MURDER as anyone else. NONE!
The basic beliefs and commandments make their "religion" ILLEGAL to all KNOWN CIVILIZATIONS.
I agree, he is the worst sort of media whore. He is not really interested in helping the Iranian pastor. He is probably hoping if they kill the Iranian this will up the ante. Now this guy will incite violence by threatening to burn the Mohammedian book of superstition. He will be in his safe, comfortable home while some U.S. Or Coalition troops get killed over this. You don’t back down to the Muslims or pretend to revere their book, like the liberals do. But don’t incite crazed fanatics, putting other people at risk, just so you can have your ugly mug printed in the paper.
He may be a horse’s ass, but even a horse’s ass gets it right once in a while.
To the guy who said he is a media whore who will say anything to be relevant. I ask so you think he was making stuff up about Islam—and their bloody prophet? The relevance is in the message —never the messenger. I salute Pastor Jones for honoring what he believe he is called to deliver. And so I ask what are you doing to be relevant? displaying your jealousy-perhaps?
Ok-so I will back away from my earlier reply —even as you have and in the same way-now that you have clarified you
motivation is based on style and appearance rather than the substance of what he has said. I can understand your latter reply but worry you may be blinded to the message he proclaims by your prejudice?
