This Wheaton professor is ignorant. I don’t think Muslims and Christians worship the same G-d. The Muslims allah (Jallah) is a rock god. That is why pagans find Islam so attractive. This evangelical college has the right to stand up against ignorance and pc nonsense.

Incidentally, the Muslims chant Allahu Akbar [my] God is greater. Even they don’t think Allah (Jallah) is the same as God.

I’m sure you’re right on that count. She’ll become a martyr and all the lefties will come running to her aid with teaching contracts, movie proposals and book deals.

Forget the boring jobs at other colleges.

She'll get good fees for being frequent guests on CNN, or on panels on other networks etc......also goodly amounts of money plus travel and other expenses for speaking gigs all over the fruited plain.

This is how it works, peeples.

These muzzie activist chicks may be fugly, but they ain't dumb.

Yes indeed she will become a leftist martyr. She is also a troublemaker and needs to be gotten rid of before she does more damage. I live a couple of towns away from Wheaton College. I like to take rides through the campus as it is such a lovely one; small town quaint and charm surrounds it. Wheaton College needs this activist agitator like a hole in the head.

Wasn’t Islam created by Mohammed to justify his child brides and subjugation of women and non-believers? Their symbol is the sword of death and terror, not the cross of sacrifice. Islam survives because any follower or Islamic government feels justified in killing any “apostate” who wants to be free of it.

We should give Ms. Larycia Hawkins a month's paid vacation, preferably somewhere in the disputed area of Syria...

If she survives with her head, maybe it will get her mind right...

Please tell me that’s a joke?

Nope.
Child brides are common with Muslims.

These people do not belong in the west.
Colonization and cultural imperialism was the only proper way to interact with savages.

Allah is in the Bib. He spent 40 days tempting Jesus in the wilderness.

The Christian God loves His children so much He was willing to die for them.

The Muslim god demands his subjects kill and die for his honor and reputation.

The Christian God doesn't need to be defended by His children - His shoulders are broad enough that He can take care of Himself.

Anyone who believes we worship the same God is delusional...

The word “chloros” was always translated GREEN in the Bible,
until the translators came upon that word in relation to a
HORSE. So, they translated it just that time as “pale” since they reasoned that horses couldn’t possibly be green.

So, the horse is GREEN, the color of ISLAM.

In the end, I agree that it is just wrong, but one only arrives at that correct conclusion by engaging the controversy over how erroneous a monotheist's doctrines concerning the One Existing God must be before the person's worship ceases to be directed to God, and is directed instead to a fantasy.

A Muslim can get through "I believe in One God" before stumbling over "the Father Almighty" since Islam provides no basis for regarding God as Father, then agree again with "maker of heaven and earth and of all things visible and invisible", then will deny the rest of the Nicene Creed.

A Christian can agree that "there is no god but God" (ignoring the Mohammedan conceit that the Arabic word for God is the proper name of the One Existing God and translating all the words of the first clause of the Shahada into English and taking the words at face value), but necessarily denies that Mohammed is God's prophet (or messenger or apostle, both of which are probably better tranlations of the Arabic rasūlu).

And if one goes beyond the respective creeds and into their elaboration, the disagreements in the understanding of God become deeper -- Muslims understand the first clause of the Shahada as explicitly denying the doctrine of the Trinity and the Sonship of Jesus.

Another person who clearly has not read a single sura of the Koran. That, or lying.

I hope they do fire her. The article shows that she has a long list of errors.
