Title: Christians Need To Stop Being So Naive About Muslim Immigration
Post by: bigheadfred on January 31, 2017, 01:07:49 pm

Many Christians have been lulled into a childish view of the world and think that deep down Muslims are not too different from them.

Good piece

Excerpt:
"Both the Old and New Testaments make frequent use of words such as battle, soldier, and warfare in both the literal sense and in a metaphorical spiritual sense. But you will be hard-pressed to hear those words in sermons today. Many Christians have been lulled into a childish view of the world and think that deep down everyone is not too different from them. But history and the contemporary world should show us that fundamentalist Islam is radically different from the beliefs of Christians and other Americans. If we don’t fully wake up to this reality, we will pay a heavier price for our delusions than we already have."

Whew-boy, CNN is putting out anti-ban, anti-Trump pieces, about how this hurts the GLBT people and another on how it gives ISIS a recruiting tool.
