The religion of peace strikes again – quite literally. A thirteen-year-old girl was sentenced to 90 lashes for having a cell phone at school. She will also spend two months in a Saudi jail.
Flogging is a brutal torture that is commonly used in Saudi Arabia. Although it is not supposed to be used for minor offenses, judges are free to add a flogging to sentences at their whim. Read more »
The United States was founded upon the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and the founders did not put a “separation” of church and state in the Bill of Rights. They just stated the God-given right to practice our religion. Read more »
The attacker stood on a table and shouted “Allahu Akbar” just before he started murdering soldiers, some recently back from Iraq and Afghanistan and others ready to be deployed. Major Nidal Malik Hasan, who has been a Muslim all his life, was born in the United States. Did he just snap and go postal or is there a religious connection here? Read more »
When I read the headline, I thought this strange for a country with a Muslim population. The headline was “Saudi court upholds child rapist crucifixion ruling”. Read more »
An Associated Press article released from Atlanta Georgia on August 2nd, 2009 AD at 4:10:00 AM caught my attention. No, I was not up at 4:10 (but I did wake up at 4:30 and eventually have my coffee by 5:30) but I caught it later.
I have been telling fellow Christians for years that we need to stay vigilant and protect our religion.
Take this scenario:
A nice Chinese Gentleman moves in right next to you. Other than a funny look he gives toward the cross you are wearing around your neck, he seems like an ideal neighbor. He is courteous when you occasionally pass him, but he avoids eye contact.
Through his sliding glass door that opens into his living room you see him all the time working on a high-end laptop. You figure he must have a high-tech job or a home-based business he runs through the Internet. Read more »
I can say it now, because it will not endanger sources or methods at the FBI, but I know from personal dealings with the FBI that the local field offices involved in high tech investigations in 2000 and early 2001 did not even have the capability to open up FoxPro databases for analysis. In fact, I offered to give them a brand-new shrink-wrapped FoxPro software package and they said that they could not even accept the gift as they were prevented by law from accepting it! Read more »
After the arrest of some terrorists in New York, the NYPD released some information that these were just a group of people who wanted to see themselves on TV. Conspicuously missing in the announcement was any mention of religion, so the public was led to believe that these people were just a group of friends that decided to have some fun and blow things up.

All of this prisoner torture ssssssssssssssstuff in the news is starting to turn my stomach. Those “poor innocent kidnapped people” in Club Gitmo are actually treated better than they were treated in their own countries.
They have food prepared strictly to all the Muslim rules and are adequately fed; most of them actually gained weight. They were not fed that well when they were killing Americans.
They receive the best medical care our tax dollars can buy, which is better than what the Veterans Administration gives to our own troops returning from the field and a lot better than any government-provided care (England, Canada, etc.) is supplied in socialist countries – soon to be appearing in United States offices if Obama and the liberal congress gets their own way with their un-healthy care system.
They are provided with free Korans and even have calls to prayer broadcast over loud speakers by a Muslim during the appropriate times. The cells are even marked so they know the exact direction to face Mecca.
In return, they throw excrement and urine at our troops guarding them, try to hurt them when receiving their dinner, tear up their Korans to stuff up their toilets, and even rub feces on themselves when our troops need to move them to another location in the compound. They do everything they can to hurt our military personnel.
Our troops are instructed to endure all of this and are even reprimanded when they are forced to defend themselves by restraining the enemy combatants that would slit American throats of they had half the chance.
We need to change this.
The British government announced to the world that they were putting everyone on notice on what views it expects visitors to have by making public a list of names of people that are banned from entering England. The list includes, for the most part, really evil people; some are in prison in Russia and others are well-known terrorists.
I can see why any government would want to ban terrorists. Six of the names were not made public, and Home Secretary Jacqui Smith said it was not in the public interest to reveal these names. My read on the secrecy is that there may be some heads of state or other high-profile world leaders. Read more »
