Will keep him in my prayers.
Anyone else remember the hellstorm Ann Coulter received when she suggested forced conversions to Christianity for Muslims?
Sounds like PC run amok. Coming soon to a country near you?
The same thing is very likely going on in prisons all over America.
I blame Bush.
after 9/11 he should have bombed Egypt and Saudi Arabia for harboring and nurturing the terrorist who came from and trained in these anti American bastions.
I can't get the picture of 43 holding hands and worse with that POS Saudi prince
When faced with irrationality, often the best response is to be irrational back. In this case, those that imprisoned him need to be convinced that he is more threatening in prison than he is if set free.
This could be done by his friends sanctifying him. That is, start to attribute to him things that both the Muslims and the Coptic bishop find threatening. All unconfirmed rumor of course.
For example, the idea that “inspired by his persecution”, several young Muslim men have secretly converted to Christianity, and are now preaching to Muslims. And the longer he is kept in prison, the more inspiring he becomes, as a “persecuted saint”.
Likewise, implicate the Coptic Bishop Kirollos as secretly practicing non-Christian rituals of an unknown type. (Which needs to be done subtly). Acts of superstition and repetition that raise eyebrows. Like why, when he walks, does he avoid stepping on cracks?
Impossible to verify, of course, but such things are looked at askance and put the bishop under suspicion.
Done with some care, so as not to endanger him, this sort of thing is very distracting to oppressors of this type.
But the stinkin’ Muslims can insult any religion they want. Allah is not my G-d or the Christians’ G-d.I don’t give a damn what anyone tells me.
