The Muslim
religion in the fastest growing religion per capita in the United
States, especially in the minority races!!! Allah
or Jesus? By
Rick Mathes Last
month I attended my annual training session that's required for
maintaining my state prison security clearance. During the training
session there was a presentation by three speakers representing the
Roman Catholic, Protestant and Muslim faiths, who explained each of
their belief systems. I
was particularly interested in what the Islamic Imam had to say. The
Imam gave a great presentation of the basics of Islam, complete with a
video. After the
presentations, time was provided for questions and answers. When it
was my turn, I directed my question to the Imam and asked: "Please,
correct me if I'm wrong, but I understand that most Imams and clerics of
Islam have declared a holy jihad [Holy war] against the infidels of the
world. And, that by killing an infidel, which is a command to all
Muslims, they are assured of a place in heaven. If that's the case, can
you give me the definition of an infidel?" There was
no disagreement with my statements and, without hesitation, he replied,
"Non-believers!" I
responded, "So, let me make sure I have this straight. All
followers of Allah have been commanded to kill everyone who is not of
your faith so they can go to Heaven. Is that correct?" The
expression on his face changed from one of authority and command to that
of a little boy who had just gotten caught with his hand in the cookie
jar. He sheepishly replied, "Yes." I then
stated, "Well, sir, I have a real problem trying to imagine Pope
John Paul commanding all Catholics to kill those of your faith or Dr.
Stanley ordering Protestants to do the same in order to go to
Heaven!" The Imam
was speechless. I
continued, "I also have problem with being your friend when you and
your brother clerics are telling your followers to kill me. Let me ask
you a question. Would you rather have your Allah who tells you to kill
me in order to go to Heaven or my Jesus who tells me to love you because
I am going to Heaven and He wants you to be with me?" You could
have heard a pin drop as the Imam hung his head in shame. Needless
to say, the organizers and/or promoters of the 'Diversification'
training seminar were not happy with Rick's way of dealing with the
Islamic Imam and exposing the truth about the Muslim's beliefs. I think
everyone in the US should be required to read this, but with the liberal
justice system, liberal media, and the ACLU, there is no way this will
be widely publicized. This is a
true story and the author, Rick Mathes, is a well known leader in prison
ministry. Mike
