Religion Of Peace Strikes Again
Remind me again how terribly we misjudge "The Religion Of Peace"?
Muslim Convert Killed In Holy LandThe body of a Muslim convert to Christianity who went missing in mid-July, has been returned to his family, slaughtered and cut into four pieces by Islamic extremists, according to a report from the Barnabas Fund which monitored the incident.
The man left his friends and family almost two weeks ago heading into a mountainous region of the Palestinian Authority area. He took Christian materials including cassettes, videos and Bibles with him.
After approximately ten days, during which his friends and family received no word from him, his body was returned to them. He had been brutally killed and his body carved into four pieces as a warning to other converts. He leaves behind a wife and two small children. The names and further details of those involved are being withheld by Barnabas Fund for their own safety.
Local Christians in this part of the Holy Land have been involved in supporting converts from a Muslim background who suffer persecution from Islamic extremists in the Palestinian Authority areas. Some of them have also been the target of attacks.
Last year one such Christian received a phone call telling him that a Muslim convert was in a serious condition in hospital; in response he immediately set off in his car. On the way his vehicle was deliberately driven off the road by another car. The phone call proved to be a hoax designed to lead him into trap.
Local Christians working to support converts from Islam report that Islamic militants in the Palestinian Authority area deliberately target converts. Hamas in particular reportedly receives funding from Iran specifically for this purpose.
According to shari’a (Islamic law) any Muslim male who leaves Islam (apostasies) faces the death penalty.

Muslims have no choice but to maintain enrollment in their religion by force and violence, because any sane adult with an IQ over 40 could not be convinced by means of rational argument to remain by his or her own free will. I'm gradually reading through the Koran and it is one of the most childish texts ever written. It's tenets are presented with all the grace and logic of a dim-witted 5th grade bully whose journey through puberty has disturbed his already tenuous grasp of reality, inflamed his misbegotten view of his own influence on what he considers the weaker sex and convinced him beyond a doubt that his daily poundings of anyone smaller and smarter than he is, are not only just, but a sure sign of his own greatness.
