Are Christians and Muslims the Same?

chrlhbdvctmsOffend a Christian and he is obliged to pray for your salvation. Offend a Muslim and he is obliged to murder you." So observed conservative journalist Robert Stacy McCain in the wake of this weeks horrific Charlie Hebdo massacre in France. And then we have Islams useful idiots the politically correct set: secular-"progressive" media-types and other left-wing ivory tower elitists bent on bowing in subservient dhimmitude to the religion of peace." You know people like Barack Hussein Obama who in 2012 demanded from his lofty perch at the U.N.: The future must not belong to those who slander the prophet of Islam." I assume that by the prophet of Islam" the current leader of the free world was referencing Muhammad a child-molesting Christian-and-Jew-beheading slave trader who for the purposes of selfish ambition and political power alone plagiarized and perverted the Judeo-Christian Bible to cobble together the Quran an incoherent owners manual to nearly a quarter of the worlds population. Islam is Christianitys photo-negative and a cheap knockoff at that. (Mr. President you went to law school. You should know that truth is an affirmative defense to slander.) Liberals: You cant live with em you cant slaughter em en masse. Unless of course youre a Muslim terrorist. Then and as per Hillary Clinton we must respect" and empathize with your perspective and point of view." Like the battered wife who keeps coming back for more (but didnt she really bring it on herself?) secular-"progressives" will trip over themselves to rationalize the barbaric acts of those who take seriously the express dictates of this savage cult. Better still and as an alternative to excusing the global explosion in Islamic violence these same progressives" might choose to exploit the bloodshed for their own socio-political gain. If the Muslim world gives them lemons theyll compare apples to oranges. Theyll leverage the Islamic violence to actually slander the one religion they do hate: Christianity. Even before the bodies of the French fallen had grown cold former Rolling Stone executive editor and home-lobotomized liberal Eric Bates did just that. In perhaps the dumbest comment ever uttered on liberal television (and there is no short supply to choose from) Bates who was a guest on the always-dependable MSNBC newsy network compared the late Rev. Jerry Falwell to the Charlie Hebdo terrorists suggesting that religious fundamentalists of all stripes and of nationalities have this penchant to say we want to be able tell you what you can and cant portray." See video: In an email addressing Bates remarks Deryl Edwards president of Liberty Counsel Action and close friend and confidant to Jerry Falwell for over two decades said the following: To compare Dr. Falwells lawsuit against Hustler publisher Larry Flynt to the murderous thugs who gunned down the editors of Charlie Hebdo is mind-boggling. When I heard this comparison I was instantly reminded of the first time I ever spoke with Dr. Falwell. I was a student at Liberty Baptist College (now Liberty University) at the time. As my Christian service that semester I was working the tape ministry which in those days meant duplicating sermon messages onto cassettes that were sent out to radio stations. I was there by myself in one of the adjacent buildings to Thomas Road Baptist Church when the door suddenly opened and I heard a booming voice shout out Hello! Turning around to see Dr. Falwell I was more than a little scared and intimidated. But he nicely asked me if my supervisor was around. I said no and Dr. Falwell proceeded to ask me to relay a message. Dr. Falwell told me that in a recent sermon he had been critical of pornographers and specifically Larry Flynt. He added that Larry had just been shot and was paralyzed so it wouldnt be right for that tape to go out right now. Even as a college sophomore I right then knew the measure of the man that his enemies would never acknowledge. Dr. Falwell could have easily used this tragedy to attack Flynt and call it Gods judgment or something but because of his compassion he refused to verbally attack a man who had been injured. Compare this to the horrific images this week of an Islamic radical calmly and methodically executing the wounded French officer lying on the sidewalk." I dont recall Dr. Falwell leading or sending a team to assassinate Larry Flynt and the editorial staff of Hustler" Edwards added. He took his personal defamation case against Hustler to court operating under the Rule of Law and accepted the results bitter as they may be. To take that further Dr. Falwell then invested his time and much prayer until he died to winning Larry Flynt whom he loved to the Lord." And there Mr. Bates is your contrast/comparison between Christianity and Islam. Dr. Jerry Falwell was a man with more love in his heart and righteousness in his soul than absent your own coming to King Jesus as your Lord and Savior youll possess in a lifetime. This is the difference between Christianity and Islam. They are as day and night. One loves its enemies. The other murders them. One frees women and children. The other binds them. One welcomes conversion. The other compels it. One suffers persecution. The other inflicts it. One is truth. The other a lie. One offers eternal salvation. The other damnation. Islam is the poison. Christ is the cure. For an glimpse of the true man who was Jerry Falwell watch the below video of just one interaction between Falwell and Flynt on Larry King Live in 1996.
