I just got this from a
friend...Happy Reading !!!!
"Muslim Belief. This is a true story
and the author, Rick Mathes, is a
well-known leader in the prison
ministry.The Muslim religion is the fastest growing religion per
capita in the United States,
especially amongst the minority
races!!! 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 beliefs. 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.
Allfollowers of Allah have been
commanded to kill everyone who is not of your faith so they
can have a place in 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 been caught with his hand in
the cookie jar.'He sheepishly
replied, 'Yes.'I then stated, 'Well,
sir, I have a real problem trying
to imaginePope John Paul
commanding all Catholics to kill those of your faith, or Dr. Stanley
ordering all Protestants to do the
same in order to guarantee them
a place in heaven!'The Imam
was speechless!I continued, 'I
also have a 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 for you 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 there
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 my way of dealing with the
Islamic Imam, and exposing the truth about the Muslims' beliefs."
