Matthew 10:33 But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven.

This sounds like a sin to me, and this was said long before the Crucifixion.

Matthew 15-17 "But what about you?" he asked. "Who do you say I am?" Simon Peter answered, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God." Jesus replied, "Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by man, but by my Father in heaven.

Peter knew exactly who Jesus was. It was revealed to him by God Himself. Yet he still denied Him three times.

As the saying goes, "he who fights and runs away shall live to fight another day."

As did St Peter. As did these journalists, or so it seems. No shame there (particularly if they crossed their fingers first) and more the fool the militant muslim terrorists for being deceived by "the old cross-your-fingers-and-convert-to-Islam" trick.

Terrorist are not MEN and it was done at the coercion of a gun to the head, not by any form of their free will.

I think God isn't mad at for them lying to terrorist at the point of a gun.
