Should Reagan have called the Soviet Union an "evil empire?"

Centani never denied Jesus, that is all in your mind. Just why is that in your mind?
To: Invisible Gorilla
You thought incorrectly. Jesus said, "Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgement." (John 7:24)Oh. OK. Then in my "rightous judgement" I think you might possibly be one of the people Christ was talking about in Matthew 7:21-23
Ta ta, have a nice life.
To: McGavin999
Not nearly as sickening as your reading comprehension.
My original post simply challenged the readers here to reflect on the stregnth of their own faith, if they were in a similar situation.

Which "it" am I supposed to figure out?
Your reasoning?

How about addressing the issue of martyrdom now. Why are martyrs given high honor in Heaven, if one can convert under duress and it's not really a denial of Christ? Wouldn't that make the Christians in Rome and the Sudan a bunch of dummies?
To: kenavi
What has led you to believe that Christians in Communist countries have had to deny their faith?
They may not be able to practice it openly, but that is not the same as pronouncing that they don't believe.

Yes, well, I'm sure that we all think we would be strong, as did St. Peter. However, if a man who walk with our Lord, ate with Him, learned at His knee can falter, than why would we think we would be stronger.
What is that saying "Pride goeth before a fall".
We could only hope and pray that we would be strong enough, and we could only hope and pray that God would forgive us if we were not.
I do believe St. Peter was forgiven.
To: Stultis
Then I'm trying to understand your reasoning. Wasn't Reagan aiding the anti-liberalism forces in the USSR by calling them an "evil empire?"
Is Islam an evil empire?
To: Invisible Gorilla
And exactly how is it that you are so intimately familiar with what is involved in converting to Islam? Or is your knowledge merely conjecture? Are you basing your judgement on personal experience, or might you be bearing false witness against an innocent man?
To: McGavin999
I don't disagree with you except your assignment of pride.
I'm not sure that I would have the strength under those circumstances.
My post was intended to prompt people to examine their faith and encourage the prayer you suggest.

"I have the highest respect for Islam, and I learned a lot of good things about it"And this guy is working FOX News? My reaction would have been just the opposite.

I can't comprehend why ANYONE would EVER convert into this craphole of a belief system!!!
To: McGavin999
Sorry, you are aware that Islam denies the divinity of Christ, aren't you? By definition, to affirm Islam is to deny Christ.
So, care to have a run at any of the questions about martyrdom your posts have raised? If it's OK to convert to Islam under the threat of death, why are the Christians martyred by the Roman persecutions so highly praised for refusing to deny Christ?
To: TaxachusettsMan
I watched this on FOX today. When I heard Centani talking about the wonderful Palestinians and trying to get out their message. I gagged. Then I learned that the family is from the bay area. Next I was looking for a wife for a 60 year old even if divorced. So what am I left with here. A lefty ! Sorry to be so cynical! But I'm glad he's safe. Fair and balanced.... Oh yeah!
