I guess at post #28 here is a clarification of Prof. Camp's comments in which he complains his words were falsely reported.

Maybe.

But the assertion underlying his larger point is still fatuous: that Christians aren't doing nearly enough to placate Muslims who have no interest in any "placation" short of complete Muslim dominance.

Muslims are treated astonishingly well in countries in which there is is a strong Christian tradition. They have the same political rights as Christians. Christians have nothing to be ashamed of in that regard.

At the same time, Christians should be harmless as doves but as wise as serpents. And that requires vigilance and even resistance to Islamic attempts to dominate and subvert Christian traditions and cultures.

The reporter is probably Muslim from the name. I'm wondering if this is what she "heard." I've dealt with many people who hear only what they want to hear and interpret statements that have a clear, unambiguous meaning to fit their viewpoint.

If the reporter interpreted Professor Camp's statements through the filter of Islam, we are in more trouble than I thought.

Islam is deaf.
