Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free. (JN 8:32)
Anit-Muslim hate is not politically correct, so it will not blossom. On the other hand, Christophobia is politically correct and more pervasive. There is no comparison. Christians are put to death and churches are burned down overseas. Muslims are not persecuted in Christian nations the way Chriistians are persecuted in Muslim nations.
Of course, not holding hearings at all would have quickly absolved Peter King of his true "crime," the transgression he's been pilloried for like Red-hunters of an earlier generation. That is the "crime" of exposure, which, to the left, "un-American" or "anti-American," is the greatest offense of all. Front groups, boring from within, subversion – all require undisturbed cover, not questions, no...more
Of course, not holding hearings at all would have quickly absolved Peter King of his true "crime," the transgression he's been pilloried for like Red-hunters of an earlier generation. That is the "crime" of exposure, which, to the left, "un-American" or "anti-American," is the greatest offense of all. Front groups, boring from within, subversion – all require undisturbed cover, not questions, not discussion, not sunshine. The New York lawmaker might not know it, but he's been caught in the act.

Not only that, even spending too much time on this forum is a waste of time. Some liberals and religious lefties spend hours on this forum dominating the boards. Like they had nothing else to do with their time. There's plenty of face-to-face human interaction needed in this hurting world. Debating till the sun goes down creates few productive end results and never changes anyone's heart.
Pakistan seems incapable of allowing viewpoint dissent under the guise of insulting Islam. Furthermore, it is disheartening when the masses of the populace are in favor of the blasphemy laws. If the democratic voice prevails, then all non-Muslims who converted from Islam would be dead right now.
Without God, morality does not exist. There is no absolute moral right or absolute moral wrong. Mere human popular opinion or majority vote determines a relative and shifting right and wrong. We need to push the obvious to its logical conclusion.
Universalism is nothing new. It is an old lie now packaged differently via electronic social media. Rob Bell is merely one among others who have simply strayed from the biblical worldview. That's why my faith is not in any pastor or Christian leader, it is in Jesus Christ.
There should be no welfare state. There should not be a need for the governement to provide handouts. This is a failure of the Church to share and prevent poverty. At the same time, we need to lower taxes so that Christians will keep more of their money in order to give more of their money.
Let believers not stop advocating on behalf of persecuted Christians who are suffering greatly. Let us not stop to support Christians who stand boldly for Christ in the face of blasphemy laws. Let us not stop to change unjust laws that prevent religious liberties.
