ISLAM’S ERASURE OF THE MIDEAST’S JUDAIC & CHRISTIAN HERITAGE

ISLAM’S ERASURE OF THE MIDEAST’S 
JUDAIC & CHRISTIAN HERITAGE
Another attempt to portray conquerors as victims and victims as conquerors

Raymond Ibrahim is a Shillman Fellow at the David Horowitz Freedom Center.
The Muslim world is at war with history.  It needs to be, if it hopes to change the narrative concerning how it came into being and, more importantly, how no one but Muslims has any right to any land claimed by Islam.
For example, the Palestinian Authority’s minister of culture, ‘Atif Abu Sayf, recently stated on official PA TV that
Our struggle is with this State [of Israel] that came out of nowhere, without a history and without geography, stole our land, and wants to put an end to our existence...  There is nothing in history that proves this presence. They have not found one stone... [Israel knows] that they have no connection to this city [Jerusalem], that they have no connection to this history, and that they have no connection to the geography, just as they have no connection to the future.
Days later, in early September 2019, the minister of culture made similar assertions: “Our struggle with the occupying entity is a struggle over the narrative. We are the legal inheritors of all that is on the land…  The occupier's narrative is false, and all of its attempts to find justification for its presence here have failed.”
Abu Sayf’s views are standard among Palestinians.  As a September 15, 2019 report notes, “One of the central elements of the Palestinian narrative is the negation of the entire Jewish history in the Land of Israel in general and in Jerusalem in particular. Despite numerous sources and archeological finds proving the opposite, the Palestinian Authority regularly repeats this claim because it is the basis for the PA's denial of Israel's right to exist.”
The irony is that, although Judaism has a millennia-old history and presence in Jerusalem, Muslims from Arabia brutally conquered, colonized, and Arabized that ancient city in the year 637.
This is the “philosophical” problem confronting not just Palestinians but much of the Muslim world: most of the territory Islam claims was taken from non-Muslims through violent conquest and colonization
As such, if conquerors and their descendants base right on might—as Islam has always done—it would seem that they have few rights to claim once their might wanes. Hence the Muslim tendency to rewrite history when dealing with non-Muslims—to prove that they are not conquerors but the “rightful” claimants of this or that land. 
While such revisionism is evident in the aforementioned PA quotes concerning Israel, it is especially ubiquitous in Islam’s attempts to erase evidence of Christianity from the lands it conquered.  This is unsurprising considering that the heart of the Muslim world—including all of North Africa, Egypt, Syria, Iraq, and Turkey—was Christian centuries before the scimitar of Islam came.
As Dr. Hena al-Kaldani once said during a conference in Amman, Jordan hosted by the Jerusalem Center for Political Studies: “There is a complete cancelation of Arab Christian history in the pre-Islamic era,” “many historical mistakes,” and “unjustifiable historic leaps in our Jordanian curriculum.”  “Tenth grade textbooks omit any mention of any Christian or church history in the region.”  Wherever Christianity is mentioned, omissions and mischaracterizations proliferate, including the portrayal of Christianity as a Western (that is, “foreign”) source of colonization, said al-Kaldani.
“It’s the same situation in Iraq,” said Sharara Yousif Zara, an influential politician involved in the Iraqi Ministry of Education:  “There’s almost nothing about us [Christians] in our history books, and what there is, is totally wrong.  There’s nothing about us being here before Islam.  The only Christians mentioned are from the West.  Many Iraqis believe we moved here.  From the West.  That we are guests in this country.”
“It sounds absurd, but Muslims more or less know nothing about Christians, even though they make up a large part of the population and are in fact the original Egyptians,” said Kamal Mougheeth, a retired teacher in Egypt: “Egypt was Christian for six or seven centuries [before the Muslim invasion around 640].  The sad thing is that for many years the history books skipped from Cleopatra to the Muslim conquest of Egypt.  The Christian era was gone.  Disappeared.  An enormous black whole.”
This comports with what Copts have told me concerning their Egyptian classroom experiences: there was virtually no mention of Hellenism, Christianity, or the Coptic Church—one thousand years of Egypt’s pre-Islamic history. History began with the pharaohs before jumping to the seventh century when Arabian Muslims “opened” Egypt to Islam. (Wherever Muslims conquer non-Muslim territories, Islamic hagiography euphemistically refers to it as an “opening,” fath, never a “conquest.”)
The Muslim world’s expunging of Christianity from Middle Eastern history has for generations successfully indoctrinated Muslim students to suspect and hate the Christian minorities living among them, who are presented as non-organic parasitic remnants supposedly left by Western colonialists (though as seen, Christianity precedes Islam in the region by some six centuries).
This also explains one of Islam’s bitterest ironies: the ancestors of those many Muslims currently persecuting Christians throughout the Middle East—including in PA territory—were themselves persecuted Christians who over the centuries converted to Islam to end their own persecution. In other words, Muslim descendants of persecuted Christians are today slaughtering their Christian cousins, without suspecting their common origins.
Such is the tragedy caused by Islam’s rewriting of history—a rewriting that is required whenever Muslims try to portray themselves as the “rightful” inhabitants of this or that land.

Backlash explodes as Corporate America bows before China, and the resistance to groveling mounts

Amid public outrage over the NBA cowering to China and Blizzard Entertainment banning a pro-Hong Kong gamer, it’s worth noting that Alex Jones was purged from social media last year after warning about ChiCom infiltration of US industries and culture.
In short, Jones was the first domino to fall – and was the first because he blew the whistle on American companies increasingly agreeing to Chinese-style censorship and control in exchange for doing business in China.
Now any American who supports the Hong Kong protests – or free speech in general – is facing censorship just like Alex Jones, but they’re now at the Rubicon in which they must choose between protecting free speech or bowing down to a foreign government.
First they came for Alex Jones…
But we’re all Alex Jones now: Stand up to ChiCom censorship or lose free speech forever.
Chinese dominance is also penetrating US politics, as Jones warned President Trump in the aftermath of Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.)’s staffer who was exposed as a Chinese spy.
As Jones explained in Aug. 2018, with the transcript provided by RealClearPolitics:
Mr. President, you know the Office of Personnel Management [hack] was done by insiders, that’s even come out in intelligence reports. They have tried to keep it quiet because it’s such treason, it’s unbelievable.
We know China owns the majority of our debt after the private Federal Reserve. We know they now own Hollywood.
You’ve helped block some of them buying up American Bandstand, a few final things they didn’t own. We know that they’re teaching Maoism in the colleges of all 50 major state-funded colleges, have major ChiComm infiltration.
Some of them are run by the ChiComms, even The Washington Post had to admit. We know that the people’s army of China has been caught running Dianne Feinstein’s operation.
We know their penetration is hundreds of times that of the Russians.
We know they’re involved in election meddling, and they’re so arrogant they went to Davos a year and a half ago and said they would stop your agenda, along with Junker.
…And if you make the fact that we need an Internet Bill of Rights, and anti-trust busting on these [Big Tech] companies, if they don’t back off right now.
And if you don’t come out and point out that the communist Chinese have penetrated and infiltrated and are way, way worse than the Russians — because it’s true, and the Democrats are scared of that coming out.

Chinese Citizens Will Need to Pass Facial 

Recognition Test to Use the Internet

Social credit tyranny accelerates

Chinese citizens will be forced to pass a facial recognition test to use the Internet in the latest expansion of the country’s draconian social credit score system.
“At present, a Chinese citizen will need to show his or her ID card while applying for a landline or the internet,” reports the Daily Mail. “The facial-recognition test is set to verify that the ID card belongs to the applicant.”
Under its social credit score system, China punishes people who criticize the government, as well as numerous other behaviors, including;
– Bad driving. – Smoking on trains. – Buying too many video games. – Buying too much junk food. – Buying too much alcohol. – Calling a friend who has a low credit score . – Having a friend online who has a low credit score. – Posting “fake news” online. – Visiting unauthorized websites. – Walking your dog without a leash. – Letting your dog bark too much.
Back in August, the Communist state bragged about how it had prevented 2.5 million “discredited entities” from purchasing plane tickets and 90,000 people from buying high speed train tickets in the month of July alone.
People in the west are already being banned by entire websites and services due to their opinions.
Given that Silicon Valley has aided China in helping develop its social credit system, how long before they’re banned from using the Internet altogether?

DAVID CLOUD ON THE GETTYS: THE PIED PIPERS OF CONTEMPORARY WORSHIP MUSIC

The Gettys 
The Pied Pipers of Contemporary Worship Music

Keith and Kristyn Getty’s “contemporary hymns” are used widely among “traditional, non-contemporary” churches because they are considered relatively safe.
Keith and Kristyn Getty partner with Stuart Townend to form Getty-Townend Music (GTM). 

“Up to 100 million people worldwide sing Keith Getty’s hymns in church services each year” (“Hitting the right notes,” 
Belfast Telegraph, Aug. 11, 2018). The Getty-Townend hymn (Townend wrote the lyrics and Getty, the music) “In Christ Alone” has become one of the most famous hymns ever written, with an estimated 40 to 50 million people singing it in church services each year.

At least eight of the Gettys’ songs are included in Majesty Music’s 
Rejoice Hymns

Twenty-nine of their songs are featured in 
Hymns Modern and Ancient, published by Heart Publications, a ministry of Steve Pettit Evangelistic Association and compiled by Fred Coleman who heads up Bob Jones University’s Department of Church Music.

Both Crown Baptist College and West Coast Baptist College, the two largest independent Baptist Bible colleges, have performed Getty-Townend material in their services.

The Gettys’ popular songs include “Don’t Let Me Lose My Wonder,” “In Christ Alone,” “Speak, Oh Lord,” and “The Power of the Cross.”

Typically, the lyrics are Scriptural and the tunes are not boisterous rock & roll (though the Gettys can and do rock out in their concerts).

What could be wrong with this?

Among all of the contemporary worship musicians, I consider the Gettys perhaps the most dangerous, because what they are offering is wrapped in a package that is attractive to “fundamentalists” — their Irish brogue and their physical attractiveness, their fairly conservative appearance and effervescent cheerfulness, their foot-tapping, Emerald Isle-tinged music, and the spiritual depth of their lyrics. They aren’t writing the typical CCM 7-11 music (7 words sung 11 times). 

But as likable as the Gettys are, that attractive, “conservative-appearing” package is a bridge to great spiritual danger.

The Getty’s goal is to “bring everyone together musically” (www.keithgetty.com). They want to “bridge the gap between the traditional and contemporary” (http://www.gettymusic.com/about.aspx).

The Gettys have no boundaries. They don’t believe in separation. They are positive-only, non-judgmental. They are representative of evangelicalism today, at the heart of which is “a renunciation of separatism,” as Harold Ockenga stated it in the 1940s. The Gettys are people that say they love sound doctrine, but they don’t separate from heresy. They say they love righteousness, but they don’t hate worldliness. At least they don’t speak out about it, and they should! 

“Therefore I esteem all 
thy precepts concerning all things to be right; and I hate every false way” (Psalm 119:128).

They don’t draw clear lines as the Bible requires. They don’t speak out against error and issue warnings as the Bible demands. 

“And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove 
them” (Ephesians 5:11).

“Now I beseech you, brethren, MARK THEM which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them” (Romans 16:17).

They don’t preach repentance, though it is a major and essential message of Scripture. 

They keep everything on a positive note.

When their song “In Christ Alone” was chosen to be performed for the enthronement of England’s Archbishop of Canterbury in 2013, Keith Getty said, “We are so honored that one of our hymns would be used for such an historic occasion in British life” (“In Christ Alone Featured,” Mar. 22, 2013,
NeuFutur.com).

He should, rather, have said that he was ashamed to be associated with the terrible apostasy of the Archbishops of Canterbury, and he could have reproved their wickedness.

1953, William Temple, Archbishop of Canterbury – “… there is no such thing as revealed truth” (
Nature and God).
1961, Michael Ramsey, Archbishop of Canterbury – “I expect to see many atheists in heaven” (
London Daily Mail, Oct. 2).
1982, Robert Runcie, Archbishop of Canterbury – “As to why Jesus suffered on the cross, I am an agnostic” (
Sunday Times, Apr. 11).
2008 – The Church of England officially apologized to Charles Darwin for rejecting his doctrine of evolution.
2013 – The Church of England dropped its ban on gay clergy in civil partnerships becoming bishops.

Because of the lack of boundaries, the Gettys are a bridge to the exceedingly dangerous world of the “broader church” with all of sins and heresies, as surely as Hillsong or any of the other contemporary worship groups.

We are living in the age of end-time technology, which means that one can no longer use songs and hymns without the listeners being able to come into communication with the authors with great ease. Whereas even 30 years ago, it was difficult to contact and be influenced by authors of Christian music, that has changed dramatically with the Internet. 

Today if people in a Bible-believing church hear songs by MercyMe or Stuart Townend or Hillsong, songs heard in “adapted form” in many Bible-believing churches, they can easily search for that group or individual on the web and come into intimate contact with them–not only in contact with their music (typically played in “real” rock & roll style as opposed to the watered-down soft-rock ballad versions performed in churches that are beginning to dabble with contemporary praise music), but also in contact with their ecumenical/charismatic/separatist hating/one-world church philosophy. 

Let’s say someone hears the choir perform “In Christ Alone” or “The Power of the Cross” by Getty-Townend. He likes the music and decides to check them out on the web. He comes across the Gettys rocking out at their concerts and begins to question his church’s stand against rock music. He sees the Gettys associating with anyone and everyone and begins to question biblical separation. “The Gettys seem so sincere and Christ-loving; maybe I’ve been too hard-nosed in my Christianity; maybe the separatist stance is all wrong; perhaps I should lighten up.” He comes across Keith Getty’s July 2013 interview with Assist Ministries and decides to listen to what the man has to say. He hears Getty speak highly of Bono and C.S. Lewis, so he decides to take a look at these people, and by so doing he begins to question fundamental Bible doctrines. After time, through the influence of the Gettys, the soul who was once a contented member of a Bible-believing church, raising his children in a Bible-believing path, is on the high road to the emerging church and his children and grandchildren will end up who knows where. 

The same could be said for the influence of MercyMe or Hillsong or hundreds of other prominent contemporary worship musicians, because they hold the same philosophy and represent the same bridge to spiritual danger.

Men who are defending the use of contemporary praise music will answer to God for the souls that cross the bridges they are building to the dangerous world that is represented by this music. 
The Gettys are a bridge to new Reformed Calvinism.
The Gettys are new Reformed Calvinists. Keith leads worship at Parkside Church, Cleveland, Ohio, pastored by Alistair Begg. This is the world of John Piper, David Platt, R.C. Sproul, Al Mohler, Jr., John MacArthur. 

Reformed Calvinism is not biblically sound. It is a path to the world of Augustine, the church fathers, John Calvin, Protestantism, the Puritans, infant baptism. It is a path to Replacement Theology (the church is Israel). It is a path to Amillennialism and the rejection of the imminency of Christ’s return and the loss of all of the spiritual benefits of that important doctrine.

New Reformed Calvinism, unlike old Reformed Calvinism, is ecumenical. There are no strict boundaries. The Gettys associate in ministry with almost anybody: Pentecostal, Charismatic, Roman Catholic, deniers of the blood atonement (C.S. Lewis), theistic evolutionists (John Lennox). Keith Getty favorably quotes all sorts of unsound men. For example, in his 2017 book 
Sing! he quotes the Roman Catholic mystic J.R.R. Tolkien, Augustin, C.S. Lewis, and Sting. 

New Reformed Calvinism is sympathetic toward Rome. The old Reformed men believed that Rome is the great whore of Revelation 17, drunken with the blood of the martyrs. But the new Reformed have ecumenical relationships with Rome. Consider The Gospel Coalition. The Getty’s pastor, Alistair Beggs is the head. The web site promotes ecumenical unity. One report was entitled “The Urgency of Evangelical Ecumenism.” The report “Should Christians Be Ecumenical?” said, “Can evangelicals and Catholics truly be together? … Jesus’ prayer for unity in the Body obligates me to see the ecumenical task as important for Christianity.” This is false. Jesus’ prayer has nothing to do ecumenism. In fact, a careful reading of this prayer refutes ecumenism. Yet this article was written by Trevin Wax, a Southern Baptist Wheaton College professor who associates closely with the Gettys.

And New Reformed Calvinism (also called neo-Puritan), unlike old Reformed Calvinism, is not separated from the world. In July 2019, longhaired rocker Alice Cooper gave his testimony at Parkside. They should rather have reproved him for his association with the vile world of rock & roll. Mark Driscoll, one of the most influential new Reformed Calvinists, said, “We are theologically conservative and CULTURALLY LIBERAL.” His church in Seattle, Mars Hill, had New Year’s Eve champagne dance parties.

Consider the issue of dress, which most churches today consider of little consequence, but it is a clear biblical issue. Kristyn Getty is one of the few contemporary worship artists that wears a dress of any kind in her performances, but she also wears tight pants and low-cut tops and other types of immodest attire, so there is no consistency. And some of the other female musicians in the Getty performances are even less modest. An advertisement for the Getty’s 
Sing! 2019 conference featured a young woman dancing an Irish dance in extremely tight pants. That type of thing is very sensual and has no place in Christian worship. A few years ago, when we asked for feedback from Christian men about how various types of female dress affect them morally, many made the observation that tight clothing is as seductive as slight clothing. One man wrote, “I would say the number one problem is any garment that is form-fitting, be it jeans, pants, skirt, dress, shirt, whatever. Anything that is tight, no matter how long it is, leaves nothing to the imagination, and that defeats the whole purpose of covering the skin in the first place!” Another wrote, “One thing I see in my church is tight clothing. Oh, it may very well be covering but it is revealing the shape in a woman. This can be even more tantalizing to a man.” (See “Tight Clothing and Modesty” at www.wayoflife.org.)

The Gettys represent the “cool New Calvinism” that is sweeping through evangelicalism and the Southern Baptist Convention and that is capturing large numbers of “young fundamentalists.” 

It is influencing Bob Jones University graduates, which is probably why the school is being drawn to the Gettys.
The Gettys are a bridge to the world of rock & roll.
The Getty’s music is syncretistic. They “fuse the music of their Irish heritage with the sounds of Nashville, their newly adopted home.” They are “crossing the genres of traditional, classical, folk and contemporary composition.”

There are no effectual boundaries to the Getty’s music that we can discern. 

Their printed music is conservative and doesn’t use rock building blocks such as the backbeat and beat anticipation. They do this to broaden their influence into the most conservative of churches, but their performances are often out-and-out rock. Their vocals incorporate rock stylings such as slipping and sliding and croaking. (See 
A Plea to Southern Gospel Fans, a free eBook available from www.wayoflife.org.)

And while they don’t write hard rock worship songs, they don’t speak against this, either. They are always “positive, non-judgmental.” Keith Getty said that he is glad for edgy, hard-rocking renditions of his music by artists such as Newsboys, Ricky Skaggs, Owl City, Alison Krauss, and Natalie Grant, because “it is an honor” for him to witness popular modern musicians record them, and “it’s also interesting to hear their interpretation of it and useful for the song because it helps the song get played more” (“The Gettys Exclusive: Famed Hymn Writers Talk Irish Christmas Tour,” 
Christian Post, Dec. 2, 2014).

Rapper Trip Lee was featured at the Getty’s Sing! 2019 conference (“Getty Music Continues Their Five-Year Journey,” Sep. 24, 2018, gettymusic.com). 

The Gettys list the Beatles as a major musical influence, and I have never heard them warn God’s people to stay away from the Beatles. 

In a July 2013 interview, Keith Getty mentioned vile rocker Sting and homosexual rocker Elton John in a positive light, with not a hint of warning. The interview was with Dan Wooding of Assist Ministries and was broadcast on Frontpage Radio from Nashville — www.assist-ministries.com/FrontPageRadio/FPR06.09.13KeithGettyMono.mp3.

In the same interview Keith Getty heaped praise on Bono of the Irish rock band U2, calling him a “brilliant theological thinker” and saying that Bono “cares for a lot of the things that Christ asks us to care about.” He also said, “I love his passion for life and his passion for learning.” Getty had absolutely nothing to say about Bono by word of warning. 

Bono rarely even attends church, and when he does it is often a viciously heretical “church” like Glide Memorial United Methodist in San Francisco (Bill Flanagan, 
U2 and the End of the World, p. 99). Bono’s biographer said that he has been a frequent worshiper at Glide. Cecil Williams, former pastor of the church, doesn’t believe in heaven; he began performing homosexual “marriages” in 1965; and church “celebrations” have included dancing with complete nudity. 

This is Bono’s type of Christianity. Bono says that he believes that Jesus died on the cross for his sins and that “he is holding out for grace,” but Bono’s “grace” is a grace that does not result in radical conversion and a new way of life; it is a grace without repentance; it is a grace that does not produce holiness, in direct contrast with Titus 2:11-15. Nowhere does Bono warn his myriads of listeners to turn to Christ before it is too late and before they pass out of this life into eternal hell. In fact, he says that heaven and hell are on this earth (
Bono on Bono: Conversations with Michka Assayas, 2005, p. 254). Bono says that the older he gets the more comfort he finds in Roman Catholicism (Bono on Bono, p. 201). But he has nothing good to say about biblical “fundamentalism,” falsely claiming that it is a denial that God is love (Bono on Bono, p. 167) and calling it vile names (p. 147). The problem is that Bono defines love by the rock & roll dictionary rather than by the Bible, which says, “For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous” (1 John 5:3). Bill Flanagan, a U2 friend who has traveled extensively with the group, in his authorized biography describes them as heavy drinkers and constant visitors to bars, brothels, and nightclubs (Flanagan, U2 at the End of the World, p. 145). Bono admits that he lives “a fairly decadent kind of selfish-art-oriented lifestyle” (Flanagan, p. 79). Many of Bono’s statements cannot be printed in a Christian publication. Appearing on the Golden Globe Awards broadcast by NBC television in 2003, Bono shouted a vile curse word. Bono told the media that he and his bandmates planned to spend New Year’s Eve 2000 in Dublin, because “Dublin knows how to drink” (Bono, USA Today, Oct. 15, 1999, p. E1). In 2006 Bono said: “I recently read in one of St. Paul’s letters where it describes all of the fruits of the spirit, and I had none of them” (“Enough Rope with Andrew Denton,” March 13, 2006). In October 2008, Fox News reported that Bono and rocker friend Simon Carmody partied with teenage girls on a yacht in St. Tropez. The report was accompanied by a photo of Bono holding two bikini-clad teenagers on his lap at a bar (Fox News, Oct. 27, 2008).

(For more about Bono see the report “
The Rock Group U2” at www.wayoflife.org.

This is the man that Keith Getty publicly calls a brilliant theologian and praises for caring about things that Christ tells us to care about! Doesn’t Christ care about truth and holiness and a pure gospel and repentance and sound doctrine and separation from the world, Keith? Aren’t these absolute fundamentals? Doesn’t the Bible say, “He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him” (1 John 2:4)? Doesn’t the Bible say, “Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God” (James 4:4)?

Any bridge that Bible-believing churches build to the Gettys is a bridge beyond to the filthy world of secular rock, because the Gettys speak in positive terms of that world instead of reproving the unfruitful works of darkness in accordance with Ephesians 5:11. Any bridge that Bible-believing churches build to the Gettys is a bridge beyond the Gettys to people like Bono of U2.
The Gettys are a bridge to C.S. Lewis.
In the 2013 interview with Dan Wooding of Assist Ministries (broadcast on Frontpage Radio), Getty claimed C.S. Lewis as a major theological influence. Yet Lewis rejected the fundamental doctrines of the infallible inspiration of Scripture and “penal substitutionary atonement” and believed in purgatory and baptismal regeneration (“C.S. Lewis Superstar,” 
Christianity Today, Dec. 2005). Lewis rejected the historicity of Jonah and Job. He believed in prayers to the dead and confession to a priest. He held to theistic evolution, believing that “man is physically descended from animals” and calling the Genesis account of creation “a Hebrew folk tale” (Lewis, The Problem of Pain). He denied the eternal torment of hell and claimed that followers of pagan religions can be saved without acknowledging Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour (Lewis, Mere ChristianityThe Chronicles of Narnia: The Last Battle). 

In its August 2019 cover story (“The Rise of the Bible-Teaching, Plato-Loving, Homeschool Elitists” by Louis Markos), 
Christianity Today stated that “increasing numbers of evangelicals” have followed C.S. Lewis to “fantasy lands populated by wizards” and “to the Catholic Middle Ages” and to the pagan “works of ancient Greek and Rome.” Christianity Today says that “Lewis helped unlock in the evangelical soul a longing for things of which they had been taught to be suspicious: tradition, hierarchy, liturgy, sacrament, numinous awe, and literature that was not specifically Christian.” Christianity Today admits that “this tectonic shift in the evangelical world has led significant numbers of conservative Protestants to become Catholic, Orthodox, or Anglican.” 

(For more about Lewis see the free eBook 
Evangelicals and C.S. Lewis at www.wayoflife.org)

This is a man that Getty honors as a major theological influence and about whom he has nothing negative to say. No warnings. No separation. No boundaries.

Any bridge that Bible-believing churches build to the Gettys is a bridge beyond the Gettys to dangerous heretics like C.S. Lewis. 
The Gettys are a bridge to the Charismatic movement.
Keith arranged some of the songs on Michael W. Smith’s charismatic 
Healing Rain album. 

The Gettys have a close working relationship with Stuart Townend. Their music company is GTM (Getty Townend Music). 

Townend is radically charismatic and ecumenical. Not only do they write and publish songs with Townend, but they also tour together, joining hands, for example, in the Celtic Islands Tour 2012.

Townend is charismatic in theology. He leads worship at the Church of Christ, a New Frontiers church in Brighton, England. (New Frontiers is a network of charismatic churches that believes in modern apostles and prophets.) The senior pastor is Terry Virgo. Townend supports the “extraordinary manifestations of the Spirit,” which refers to the demonic/fleshly charismatic mysticism such as meaningless gibberish, prophesying, spirit slaying, holy laughter, and shaking. (This church is also the home of the Christian rock band Phatfish, with whom Townend has toured. Their music is described as “jazz-funk-rock.”)

Townend is radically ecumenical in philosophy, supporting the Alpha program which bridges charismatic, Protestant, and Roman Catholic churches.

Townend’s testimony of salvation is extremely weak, as stated in the following biographical sketch from WorshipTogether.com:
“Stuart grew up as the youngest of four children in a Christian family in West Yorkshire where his father was a Church of England vicar. Stuart’s family always enjoyed music and one brother, Ian, went on to become a member of the group Heartbeat. Stuart himself began to play the piano at the age of 7. It was while living in West Yorkshire that at the age of 13 he made his Christian commitment. Then later at the age of 18, when helping to lead a children’s camp in Hand Cross, West Sussex, he had a profound experience of the Holy Spirit.”
Townend has a false concept of Christ. When asked, “What would Jesus sing?” he replied:
“I think he would be doing thrash metal or hip hop or something where we’d go, ‘He can’t do that!’ Because I think he would be challenging our comfortable perceptions. I don’t know what he would sing or whose songs he would sing, but I believe he would do it in a way that would surprise and probably shock us” (“What Would Jesus Sing?” from an interview with Stuart Townend, TV series Principles of Praise, 2011, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OCW0oAAna7c).
So, according to Townend, instead of singing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, Jesus would be singing thrash metal and hip hop and trying to shock us with His musical choices. That is not the thrice holy Jesus described in Scripture. It is true that Jesus shocked the religious crowd of His day, but that was not because He was performing worldly musical numbers, gyrating to rap, and screaming out thrash! It was because the religious crowd had rejected God’s Word and He was God’s Word incarnate, so they did not recognize, understand, or appreciate Him. He came to fulfill every jot and tittle of the holy Law of God (Matthew 5:17-19). Jesus was a friend of sinners, but He did not sin with sinners and He was no sort of a party dude. He frequently preached on hell and demanded repentance, and that would put the brakes on any party!

Since the Christian rock crowd loves to shock people, they think Jesus is like them. Christian rockers lose no sleep at the fact that many of the saints are upset and discouraged with their music because they consider it worldly and inappropriate for the service of Christ. Christian rockers have taken over countless once-traditional churches even to the extreme of pushing aside and running over anyone who got in the way of their musical “choices.” Instead of sympathizing with the saints who oppose their music, they slander them as Pharisees and legalists and mindless traditionalists.

This is not the spirit of Jesus. He solemnly warned about offending those who believe on Him (Matthew 18:2-10). Paul, too, issued this warning. “Let us not therefore judge one another any more: but judge this rather, that no man put a stumblingblock or an occasion to fall in his brother’s way. … Let us therefore follow after the things which make for peace, and things wherewith one may edify another” (Romans 14:1319).
The Gettys are a bridge to the Roman Catholic Church.
In July 2012, the Gettys joined Townend and Roman Catholic Matt Maher on NewsongCafe on WorshipTogether.com. They played and discussed “The Power of the Cross,” which was co-written by Getty-Townend. The 10-minute program promoted ecumenical unity, with Maher/Townend/Getty entirely one in the spirit through the music. Fundamental doctrinal differences are so meaningless that they are not even mentioned. Spiritual abominations such as the papacy, the mass, infant baptism, baptismal regeneration, and Mariolatry were ignored. Jude 3 was despised and Romans 16:17 completely disobeyed for the sake of building the one-world church through contemporary Christian music.

Keith Getty collaborated with Catholic Margaret Becker in the song “Jesus Draw Me Ever Nearer.” In an interview, Becker said, “One of my missions has been to say, let’s not label ourselves, let’s not put up walls between each other. I may go to a Catholic church, that does not mean I’m Catholic, in that I cannot (disagree with) any Catholic rhetoric or Catholic belief” (“US singer to make an appearance at Cross Rhythms ’95,” 
CR Magazine, June 1, 1995). 

Getty also collaborated with Roman Catholic Máire [pronounced Moya] Brennan in writing “With the Early Morning.” Brennan says, “Christians fighting Christians, Catholics and Protestants! It breaks my heart because we’re all stemming from the same rock. We should look at that and not at what we’ve become. I discovered an awful lot, being from a Catholic background and getting married to a Protestant” (“Back to the Rock of Ages: Maire Brennan Talks to Christina Rodden,” rootsworld.com).
The Gettys are a bridge to other heretics.
In October 2012, the Gettys joined hands with emerging heretic Leonard Sweet at the National Worship Leader Conference in San Diego. Sweet calls his universalist-tinged doctrine New Light and “quantum spirituality” and “the Christ consciousness” and describes it in terms of “the union of the human with the divine” which is the “center feature of all the world’s religions” (
Quantum Spirituality, p. 235). He defines the New Light as “a structure of human becoming, a channeling of Christ energies through mind-body experience” (Quantum Spirituality, p. 70). Sweet says that “New Light pastors” hold the doctrine of “embodiment of God in the very substance of creation” (p. 124). In Carpe Mañana, Sweet says that the earth is as much a part of the body of Christ as humans and that humanity and the earth constitutes “a cosmic body of Christ” (p. 124). Sweet lists some of the “New Light leaders” that have influenced his thinking as Matthew Fox, M. Scott Peck, Willis Harman, and Ken Wilber. These are prominent New Agers who believe in the divinity of man, as we have documented in the book The New Age Tower of Babel. Sweet has endorsed The Shack with its non-judgmental father-mother god, and he promotes Roman Catholic contemplative mysticism and dangerous mystics such as the Catholic-Buddhist Thomas Merton. (For documentation see the book Contemplative Mysticism, which is available in print and eBook editions from Way of Life Literature — www.wayoflife.org.)

At their 
Sing! 2019 worship conference, the Gettys featured flutist Pedro Eustache. He claims to be a “Christ-follower” (not a Christian) and talks about Jesus and the cross, but his Christianity is not Bible-based. It is doctrine-less, indefinable, and mystical. His gospel is so vague as to be meaningless. There is no mention of sin, the blood atonement, repentance, or saving faith. He claims that everything is “spiritual” and that nothing is “secular.” (“Pedro Estache,” interview, July 28, 2016, isharehope.com). Thus, he has no problem in playing background music for the World of Warcraft video game and a wide assortment of wicked movies. He has recorded with New Age musician Paul McCartney of the Beatles, Persian “diva Googoosh,” and many others of like spiritual caliber. He performed prominently for the soundtrack to Mel Gilbson’s The Passion of Christ, which is filled with Roman Catholic myths about Mary. 

This is the ecumenical Christianity of the Gettys. They are fairly conservative in their own theology and lives, but they have no boundaries. They don’t believe in biblical separation. 

Therefore, any bridge that Bible-believing churches build to the Gettys is a bridge beyond the Gettys to heretics such as C.S. Lewis and Bono, to the Roman Catholic Church, to the charismatic movement, to theistic evolution that denies the literal account of Genesis 1-2, to the filthy world of secular rock, to emergents and New Agers like Leonard Sweet, and to every element of the end-time one-world “church.”

REP. ILHAN OMAR: MY ADULTERY IS THE FAULT OF THE REPUBLICANS & THE JEWS

“GAMING THE SYSTEM”
WHAT? NO DIVORCE UNDER SHARIA LAW? 
REASON: WOMEN HAVE FEWER RIGHTS UNDER SHARIA, AND SHE KNOWS IT
There Is No Credible Evidence Rep. Ilhan Omar Married Her ...
REP. ILHAN OMAR: MY ADULTERY IS THE FAULT OF THE REPUBLICANS & THE JEWS
BY DANIEL GREENFIELD
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational and research purposes:
Rep. Ilhan Omar is always the victim. Nothing is her fault. Everything is the fault of the mean people, Republicans, Jews, Americans, who keep tearing her down. Even her divorce is the fault of her critics.
A rep for Omar tells TMZ, "As with all marriages, this is intensely personal and a difficult time for their family. For years, Ilhan and Ahmed have been the object of speculation and inuendo from political opponents and the media."
The statement continues, "This has taken a significant toll on Ilhan, Ahmed, and their three children. Just like any other family navigating this kind of transition, Ilhan wishes to have their privacy respected for themselves and their children and will not be commenting any further."
Really? It's the people noting that Ilhan had allegedly married her brother who caused her latest marriage to fall apart by getting her to have an affair with a married man?
Occasional internet discussions didn't cause this love match to come apart. Certainly they didn't get Omar to launch into what is an allegedly adulterous affair.
Omar really needs to stop blaming the Jews for everything.
According to the divorce docs -- obtained by TMZ -- Omar says there's been an "irretrievable breakdown of the marriage relationship." She states the couple has 3 minor children, who she wants joint legal and physical custody of ... and wants to deny spousal support to each side.
Omar wants the court to decide child support, but doesn't indicate who should receive it.
Since she wants custody, I'm going to guess that she wants it.
Sad. It's all about the benjamins

POPE INSTALLS NEW CARDINALS WHO “SHARE HIS VISION FOR SOCIAL JUSTICE, RIGHTS OF IMMIGRANTS, & DIALOGUE WITH ISLAM”

POPE INSTALLS NEW CARDINALS WHO 
“SHARE HIS VISION FOR SOCIAL JUSTICE, RIGHTS OF IMMIGRANTS, & DIALOGUE WITH ISLAM” 
BY CHRISTINE DOUGLASS-WILLIAMS
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational and research purposes:

“Pope Francis installed new cardinals…. putting his stamp on the future of the Roman Catholic Church with men who share his vision for social justice, the rights of immigrants and dialogue with Islam.”

The Pope has been a powerful promoter of Islam, going so far as advance theological reforms in Catholic schools to promote a “common mission of peace” with Islam. He largely ignores the gross human rights violations against Christians, women, minorities and apostates that are justified by normative Islam. He has not called on the leaders of Islamic states and mainstream Islamic leaders to condemn the Islamic texts that sanction such abuses. Instead, he has stated that “Christianity and Islam have more in common than people think…and the two religions defend common values that are necessary for the future of civilization.” Meanwhile, he turns a blind eye to the genocide in progress against Christians in Africa and the Middle East, and advocates that “it’s not fair to identify Islam with violence.”
On issues of suicidal immigration policy, the Pope has been “guilt-tripping Christians into accepting mass Muslim migration into Europe while ignoring the history of Islam.”
Fortunately, not all cardinals are working alongside the Pope in all this. Cardinal Robert Sarah — prefect of the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments — compared “the modern influx of Muslim migrants to the invasions of barbarian tribes that ultimately brought down the Roman Empire in a.d. 475.” Cardinal Sarah also asserted that “it is a false exegesis to use the Word of God to promote migration.”
Clerics who have fought for social justice and defended the rights of the poor and immigrants were also prominent among the new cardinals.
We can all approve of fighting for genuine social justice and the rights of the poor and actual refugees; but this does not require putting free nations at risk through open-door, unvetted immigration in the midst of the global jihad. The Pope has yet to tear down all walls around the Vatican and refuse his own personal security, but that is exactly what he expects from the citizenry.
“Pope installs new cardinals to set future direction of church,” by Philip Pullella, KFGO, October 5, 2019:
VATICAN CITY (Reuters) – Pope Francis installed new cardinals on Saturday, putting his stamp on the future of the Roman Catholic Church with men who share his vision for social justice, the rights of immigrants and dialogue with Islam.
Ten of the 13 bishops elevated to the high rank are under the age of 80 and so are eligible to vote in a conclave to elect a new pope from their ranks.
Francis has now appointed more than half of the 128 cardinal electors, increasing the possibility that the next pope will continue his progressive policies.
Over six years he has appointed more cardinal electors than those still alive who were named by former Pope Benedict and the late Pope John Paul combined.
At a ceremony in St. Peter’s Basilica, known as consistory, Francis gave the new cardinals their trademark red biretta, or hat, and asked them to always be compassionate with others and loyal.
The geographical distribution of the new cardinal electors reflects Francis’s desire to give more clout to small national churches outside of Europe and North America, countries on the periphery of world political power. Nearly 50% of the cardinal electors now come from the developing world.
“I think that the pope wanted to make visible the churches that were almost invisible,” said Cardinal Cristobal Lopez Romero, of Rabat, the capital of Morocco, which is overwhelmingly Muslim.
Romero, 67, is one of four new cardinal electors who are steeped in experience with Islam.
The others are Cardinal Miguel Angel Ayuso Guixot, 67, the Spanish head of the Vatican’s department for inter-religious dialogue; British Cardinal Michael Fitzgerald, 82, one of the Church’s foremost experts on Islam and the Koran, and Cardinal Ignatius Suharyo Hardjoatmodjo, 69, the archbishop of Jakarta in Indonesia, the country with the world’s largest Moslem population.
Clerics who have fought for social justice and defended the rights of the poor and immigrants were also prominent among the new cardinals….

Trump goads two-time presidential loser into making third failed run

republished below in full unedited for informational, educational and research purposes:
President Trump and his political arch-nemesis Hillary Clinton waged a mini-skirmish on Twitter Tuesday, foreshadowing a possible 2020 presidential run for the former secretary of state.
Earlier in the day, Trump spoke to rumors Clinton could enter the 2020 race by mentioning he wanted “Crooked Hillary” to “steal” the nomination from Mass. Sen. Elizabeth Warren, if only to answer for her missing emails.
“I think that Crooked Hillary Clinton should enter the race to try and steal it away from Uber Left Elizabeth Warren,” Trump tweeted, adding, “Only one condition. The Crooked one must explain all of her high crimes and misdemeanors including how & why she deleted 33,000 Emails AFTER getting ‘C’ Subpoena!”
Clinton replied dryly: “Don’t tempt me. Do your job.”
The back-and-forth between the two foes is likely to continue into 2020 as speculation increases that Clinton will jump into the race, given her numerous media appearancesfundraisers and speaking tours.
Owen Shroyer presents new video footage of Hillary Clinton having a coughing attack and makes the bold prediction that she will run again in 2020, possibly with Bernie Sanders on the ticket as well.

JAMES CLAPPER ADMITS OBAMA MADE DEEP STATE OFFICIALS SPY ON TRUMP

JAMES CLAPPER ADMITS OBAMA MADE DEEP STATE OFFICIALS SPY ON TRUMP

Former DNI lets slip Obama’s central role in surveilling Trump campaign

BY JAMIE WHITE
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational and research purposes:
Former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper admitted on CNN that former President Obama had ordered the CIA and FBI to spy on the Trump campaign leading up to the 2016 election.
In a CNN appearance on Monday, host Jim Sciutto asked Clapper if he’s concerned that Attorney General William Barr and U.S. attorney John Durham will find wrongdoing by intelligence officials like him.
“The message I’m getting from all this is, apparently what we were supposed to have done was to ignore the Russian interference, ignore the Russian meddling and the threat that it poses to us, and oh, by the way, blown off what the then commander in chief, President Obama, told us to do, which was to assemble all the reporting that we could that we had available to us and put it in one report that the president could pass on to the Congress and to the next administration,” Clapper said.
Conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh pointed out Clapper’s bombshell admission during his broadcast:
RUSH: Audio sound bite number 10, this morning on CNN Jim Sciutto is talking to James Clapper, who was as corrupt as Brennan, Obama’s Director of National Intelligence. And Jim Sciutto says, “Are you concerned that Barr or Durham’s investigation will find wrongdoing and seek to punish former intelligence officials like you?”
CLAPPER: The message I’m getting from all this is, apparently what we were supposed to have done was to ignore the Russian interference, ignore the Russian meddling and the threat that it poses to us, and oh, by the way, blown off what the then commander in chief, President Obama, told us to do, which was to assemble all the reporting that we could that we had available to us —
RUSH: Wait, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Stop the digital. Did you hear what he just said? He just said (imitating Clapper), “And, by the way, should we have just blown off what Obama told us to do?” Does he know what he’s just done here? Clapper on CNN today said Obama made us do it. Here, finish the bite or play it from the top, whichever you have ready to go.
CLAPPER: — and put it in one report that the president could pass on to the Congress and to the next administration. And while we’re at it, declassify as much as we possibly could to make it public, and that’s what we did.
SCIUTTO: One issue I’m — (crosstalk)
CLAPPER: It’s kind of disconcerting now to be investigated for, you know having done our duty and done what we were told to do by the president.
RUSH: Well, so now he doesn’t like it! Now that he’s being investigated here by Barr and Durham, he says, “Hey, it was Obama. We’re just doing what Obama told us to do,” which we’ve always suspected. But I find it fascinating the way he characterizes this. (impression) “Well, uh, apparently what we were supposed to have done is — is just ignore the Russian interference.” There wasn’t any. There wasn’t any Russian interference. You can’t prove it. There wasn’t any. Don’t give me the $150,000 ad buy the Russian troll farms made on Facebook after the election.
The Russians didn’t tamper with any votes. The Russians didn’t effect anything on any election result anywhere. The Russians did not meddle. You know, it really comes off of that. These people are still living off the idea the Russians meddled because they might have wanted to, the Russians interfered because they might have wanted to — and because Mueller went to the obvious step of making sure some Russians were indicted. We couldn’t find any Russians in the story!
From the beginning, the only Russian in the story was that fat ambassador who took everybody to lunch, Kislyak. Other than that, there weren’t any Russians in the story!
Over the summer, President Trump hinted that he knew Obama kickstarted the Deep State spy effort against him during the 2016 election.
“I would say that he certainly must have known about it because it went very high up in the chain but you’re gonna find that out,” Trump said. “I’m not gonna make that statement quite yet, but I would say President Obama had to know about it.”
And in 2018, fired FBI agent Peter Strzok and his paramour Lisa Page discussed in text messages that “the White House is running this,” meaning the counterintelligence probe into Trump.
 Twitter: 
In what has become an unprecedented partisan abuse of legislative power, Obama and the Democrats have made a series of moves intended on undermining the Executive office at the expense of the levers of our Constitutional Republic.

WHILE DEMS CLAMOR FOR GUN CONTROL, MURDER RATE DROPS IN 38 STATES

WHILE DEMS CLAMOR FOR GUN CONTROL, 
MURDER RATE DROPS IN 38 STATES

Dems trying to make gun control front & center despite nationwide collapse in crime

BY BEN WARREN
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational and research purposes:
Murder rates are dropping across 38 states while Democrats are choosing gun control as a core platform for the coming presidential election.
Despite top Democratic candidates correlating strict gun control laws with low violence, a new FBI homicide statistics report concludes the opposite is true.
“Large regions of the U.S. have very laissez faire gun laws with far lower levels of violent crime than those areas with more gun regulations, reports Ryan McMaken from Mises Institute. “Moreover, if we were to break down the homicide rates into even more localized areas, we’d find that high homicide rates are largely confined to a relatively small number of neighborhoods within cities.”
“Americans who live outside these areas — that is to say, the majority of Americans — are unlikely to ever experience homicide either first-hand or within their neighborhoods.”
In fact, only one region in the U.S. reported an increase in murder – the Mid Atlantic region – and this is attributed to the surge of homicides in Pennsylvania.
“Already this year, the city of Philadelphia has recorded 172 homicides — 3% more than the number recorded at the same time last year,” reports The Philadelphia Tribune. “The city’s homicide rate reached a 10-year high in 2018.”
It’s important to note that gun-grabbing politicians are determining a state’s violence rate by its number of “gun deaths” rather than simply just homicides.
This means that suicides are being used to inflate a state’s “gun deaths.”
As the saying goes: “statistics don’t lie, but liars use statistics.”
The Anti-Militia Strategy for Gun Control
Gun-grabbers are not attacking guns for personal defense — they’re attacking guns to disarm militias, the deterrent to tyranny.

TRUMP TO MOVE U.S. TROOPS OUT OF WAY OF TURKISH INCURSION INTO SYRIA

TRUMP TO MOVE U.S. TROOPS OUT OF WAY OF TURKISH INCURSION INTO SYRIA
BY WARREN MASS
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational and research purposes:
On October 6, the White House announced the removal of U.S. troops from the Syria-Turkey border area, adding, “Turkey will soon be moving forward with its long-planned operation into Northern Syria.” 
The statement followed a phone conversation President Trump had with Turkey’s President Recep Erdogan, during which Erdogan said that Turkey would soon send troops into northeast Syria. 
The announcement was widely misinterpreted as stating that the United States would withdraw all of its roughly 1,000 troops still in Syria, which was what former Representative Ron Paul advocated last year, saying, “I do think Trump understands that our interventionist foreign policy is a massive waste of money and lives.”
The announcement prompted strong objections from congressional leaders on Capitol Hill, including Senator Lindsay Graham (R-S.C.) and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.). In the face of such criticism, a senior State Department official insisted the pullback concerned a “very small number” of troops.
In a series of tweets, Trump explained what his intentions were.
“It is time for us to get out of these ridiculous Endless Wars, many of them tribal, and bring our soldiers home,” he wrote in one tweet.
“The United States was supposed to be in Syria for 30 days, that was many years ago,” Trump said in one of his October 7 tweets.
The president also stressed that his decision was not tantamount to allowing Turkish forces to have free rein in the region.
In a tweet on the afternoon October 7, Trump wrote, “if Turkey does anything that I, in my great and unmatched wisdom, consider to be off limits, I will totally destroy and obliterate the Economy of Turkey.”
On the phone call with reporters, a senior administration official said Trump decided to withdraw the troops after learning that Turkey was “intent” on mounting a military operation in the region.
“Turkey appears to be set on undertaking an operation in northern Syria. That’s something that the U.S. has been able to dissuade the Turks from doing for the past two years, but it appears that the Turks are intent on some sort of military operation,” the official said.
The official said that Trump wanted U.S. troops out of the “crossfire.”
“The president made it very clear publicly and privately that the United States does not endorse or support any Turkish operation in northern Syria,” the official said. “There’ll be no U.S. armed forces involvement or support of any operation that the Turks undertake.”
The official said this “does not constitute a withdrawal from Syria,” stressing the pullout involves troops only in a “relatively small 20-to-30-mile” region.
“We have a small number — 50 to 100 special operators in the region — and they should not be put at risk of injury, death or capture in the event that the Turks do come over the border and engage … in combat with the local Kurdish forces,” the official said.
It might be better of the president followed his instincts “to get out of these ridiculous Endless Wars,” and pull all the troops out, instead of listening to GOP interventionists such as McConnell and Graham.

ENGLAND: NATIONAL HEALTH SERVICE-NO PLACE FOR CHRISTIAN DOCTORS

Christian Doc Loses Job as UK Judge Rules ‘Biblical View of Male and Female’ Violates ‘Human Dignity’

“His attorney argued that Mackereth, a Reformed Baptist, believes God makes every person either male or female, in accord with Genesis 1:27: “And God created man to his own image: to the image of God he created him: male and female he created them.”
But the tribunal panel said this belief is contrary to fundamental human rights, stating in Wednesday’s ruling, “Belief in Genesis 1:27, lack of belief in transgenderism and conscientious objection to transgenderism in our judgment are incompatible with human dignity and conflict with the fundamental rights of others, specifically here, transgender individuals.””

REPORT BY SARAH CORRIHER
Dr. David Mackereth was forced out of his job as a doctor because he refused to refer to a bearded man who is six feet tall as “she”. Not only is there no remaining free speech in England, but the government now seeks to compel people to speak according to its political whims, in violation of both science and faith. It’s a chilling warning to American doctors about what they would face under a socialized medical system. For ultimately, it would mean that the government would tell them what to do, what to say, and even who would live.

MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD-LINKED ISLAMIC MOVEMENT LEADERSHIP PENETRATES TRUMP WHITE HOUSE

MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD-LINKED ISLAMIC MOVEMENT LEADERSHIP PENETRATES TRUMP WHITE HOUSE
BY ROBERT SPENCER
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational and research purposes:
No good can come of this. But all those who might have warned Trump administration officials about these people are gone. The swamp wasn’t drained, and the swamp creatures are apparently as firmly in power as they have been for decades.
The Muslim Brotherhood’s plan for North America states: The process of settlement is a ‘Civilization-Jihadist Process’ with all the word means. The Ikhwan [Muslim Brotherhood] must understand that their work in America is a kind of grand jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and “sabotaging” its miserable house by their hands and the hands of the believers so that it is eliminated and God’s religion is made victorious over all other religions.
“Islamic Movement Leadership Penetrates the Trump White House,” Center for Security Policy, October 4, 2019:
On 25 September 2019, the Trump administration hosted a Faith Based Safety and Security Symposium at the White House. Islamic Movement leader Oussama Jammal, Secretary General of the U.S. Council of Muslim Organizations (USCMO), was present at the event. The White House meeting included Vice President Mike Pence and officials from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS). Prior to this White House symposium, Oussama Jammal, Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) Executive Director Nihad Awad, and other senior Islamic Movement leadership, had just met days before with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan during the 74thsession of the United Nations General Assembly in New York City.
As documented in multiple published sources, including the Center for Security Policy’s 2015 monograph, Star Spangled ShariahThe Rise of America’s First Muslim Brotherhood Party, the USCMO is the U.S. Muslim Brotherhood’s political umbrella group and is closely affiliated with the pro-HAMAS Turkish Justice and Development Party (AKP). CAIR, founded by the top HAMAS officials in the U.S. in 1994, is the lead Brotherhood front group within the USCMO. USCMO senior leadership, including Jammal and CAIR’s Executive Director Nihad Awad, have all openly pledged fidelity to Turkish President Erdoğan.
On his official Twitter account on 25 September 2019, USCMO Secretary General Oussama Jammal shared pictures from the White House event, along with the following brief commentary: “Attending #DHS Faith Based Community Safety and Security Symposium hosted by the #WhiteHouse. Applaud the recognition of both domestic terrorism and violent extremism as threat to our national security. Glad to hear commitment to protect places of worship. Mosques mentioned many times.”
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan meeting in NYC with top leadership of the U.S. Muslim Brotherhood on the sideline of the September 2019 UNGA
Published evidence acquired by U.S. and foreign security agencies documents that the Muslim Brotherhood engages in hostile intelligence collection against U.S. law enforcement and intelligence agencies, and seeks to conduct influence operations against them and U.S. policymakers.
For more than a decade, the Center has sought to sound the alarm about the Islamic Movement’s expressed intent to wage jihad to establish the rule of Islamic Law (shariah). The Muslim Brotherhood operates in the U.S. as the vanguard of the Movement via a network of hundreds of front groups as well as through the USCMO. Star Spangled Shariah chronicled the development of the USCMO and its U.S. agenda of infiltration and subversion across the spectrum of American society, including national security.
In the spring of 2018, the Center published “Ally No More: Erdoğan’s New Turkish Caliphate and the Rising Jihadist Threat to the West” which revealed for the first time the close partnership between Turkish President Erdoğan and the USCMO, a partnership that began well before the March 2014 announcement of the USCMO’s formation. Oussama Jammal worked closely with Erdoğan to lay the groundwork for their strategic collaboration with the U.S. Muslim Brotherhood, all aligned with the neo-Ottoman jihadist government of Turkey, HAMAS, and the Egyptian-based Muslim Brotherhood itself….

HOW COMMUNIST CRIMINALS HIDE BEHIND 
U.N. IMMUNITY 
In this episode of Behind the Deep State, host Alex Newman exposes the legions of communist criminals hiding behind diplomatic immunity offered by the United Nations. First on the list is Michelle Bachelet, the UN “High Commissioner for Human Rights,” who has now been exposed receiving bribes from OAS. These bribes were not just for corruption, but were part of the Foro de Sao Paulo’s scheme to enslave Latin America under communism and socialism with money looted from taxpayers. Other criminals involved in this network included senior Latin American officials sought or even received UN diplomatic immunity to escape justice. In Europe, former UNESCO boss Irina Bokova, another communist criminal, also used diplomatic immunity to escape prosecutors. It is time for this to stop, Alex argues.

MILLIE WEAVER OF INFOWARS REPORTS
The Democrat’s impeachment charade came just in time to distract away from the upcoming release of several damning reports including the Inspector General’s report into the illicit origins of the Russia-collusion hoax dossier. However, the Impeachment rollout didn’t go as planned and now the Democrats are caught in a stalemate. If they move forward with impeachment, the Republicans will take advantage issuing their own subpoenas eventually killing the whole thing in the Senate but if they don’t move forward with impeachment, it will demoralize the Democrat base. So what can they do?

Sources have alerted that DHS, law enforcement and even the reserves have been prepared for possible civil unrest in cities like New York and Los Angeles on or around October 19th, conveniently right before the Inspector General’s report is released. Groups organizing for these upcoming national protests have routinely come to the rescue whenever the Democrats need a big distraction, but this time they look like they are gearing up for major civil unrest.


TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME: ‘THE VIEW’ TWISTS CHRISTMAS SONG “JOY TO THE WORLD” INTO IMPEACHMENT ANTHEM & ANTI-CHRISTIAN ATTACK, MOCKERY

A BLASPHEMOUS ATTACK ON TRUMP & A MOCKERY OF CHRISTIANS
TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME: 
‘THE VIEW’ TWISTS CHRISTMAS SONG 
“JOY TO THE WORLD” INTO IMPEACHMENT ANTHEM

Host Joy Behar celebrates birthday 

with crazed anti-Trump ballad

republished below in full unedited for informational, educational and research purposes:
“The View” celebrated co-host Joy Behar’s birthday with a bastardized anti-Trump rendition of “Joy to The World” in another classic example of Trump Derangement Syndrome infecting network television.
To wrap up Monday’s show, comedian Mario Cantone appeared on stage with a piano to serenade Behar with a special “Impeach Trump” version of the Christmas classic.
“I didn’t know what to get you…But I did get you a pair of Spanx with Adam Schiff’s picture on it right on the buttocks so he’s always behind you,” Cantone told Behar.
The lyrics for the nonsensical impeachment ballad are below:
Joy to the world, the time has come
Inquire, Indict, Impeach!
Let every heart prepare his doom
He’s broken protocol
But stays above it all
Our POTUS is genius or neanderthal!
He rules the world or so says he
But there’s a great divide
While Scaramooch is turning and Little Schiff is flirting
His sycophants commence with Rudy on defense
And praise him with gold and myrrh and frankincense
Joy to the world, Pelosi stands
McConnell doubles down
The donkeys will unite, the elephants will fight
The House will say let’s go
The Senate will say no
The country will overdose on whistle-blow
He rules the world by tweet and meme
But we’ve got Twitter too
We log on to WiFi
And raise our mobiles high
We tweet impeach for Joy!
We tweet impeach for Joy!
We tweet, we tweet impeach for Joy!
What’s with the left and Christmas songs? They don’t even like Christianity!
The deranged fantasy of overthrowing Trump through Christmas songs is reminiscent of last Christmas when Hollywood leftists performed a horrendous rendition of “Wish You A Merry Christmas” called, “We Wish You A Mueller Christmas,” or perhaps Stephen Colbert’s “Mueller’s 12 Days of Christmas.”
And look how that all turned out!

TURKISH DISSIDENT FACES TEN YEARS IN PRISON FOR “BLASPHEMY” AGAINST ISLAM

TURKISH DISSIDENT FACES TEN YEARS IN PRISON FOR “BLASPHEMY” AGAINST ISLAM 
Will you take a stand for Canan Kaftancioglu?
BY Kursat Christoff Pekgoz
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational and research purposes:
Canan Kaftancioglu, a Turkish politician and critic of Islam, has received a ten-year-long prison sentence for “blasphemy against Islam.” If the Court of Cassation upholds the verdict, Kaftancioglu will have to serve time in prison.
Canan is the executive director of the Istanbul branch of Cumhuriyet Halk Partisi (CHP), the secular opposition. Islamists have suffered a crushing defeat in Istanbul, the largest city in Europe and the fourth largest city in the world, thanks to Canan's relentless efforts. Canan has multiple college degrees and a long history of human rights advocacy, including working for TIHV (Turkish Human Rights Foundation). She has written her dissertation about “Torture Victims in Forensic Medicine.” Her father was assassinated by Islamists.
Islamists are furious because they lost Istanbul, and Canan has now become their scapegoat – given her courageous and colorful rhetoric. Canan once quipped on Twitter: “men with small dicks want to build big mosques.” She posted pictures of herself eating pork (forbidden in Islam) and acknowledged the historical reality of the Armenian Genocide. She once wrote, “stop praying, Muslims: there is no room left in paradise.” She expressed support for Kurdish dissidents, accused the current Turkish government of serial murder, and wrote that “being human is a higher dignity than being Turkish.” She is a Socratic provocateur, perhaps. But her irreverent statements serve a higher purpose: to protest human rights violations. She is the proverbial canary in the coal mine.
Turkey was once an imperfect but functional democracy. Now it is an increasingly theocratic state under the totalitarian presidency of Tayyip Erdogan. Erdogan’s presidential achievements include electoral fraudpersecution of religious minoritieswar crimes in Africa,massacring Kurdish civiliansunparalleled corruptionbanning Wikipedia and Twittercentralized online censorshipstacking the courtspersecuting academicsand terrorizing journalists. Swedish lawmakers pressed charges of genocide against him. Various commentators have called him a tyranta terrorist, and a war criminal. He has been condemned by international organizations such as Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch.
Erdogan’s world view is hateful, racist, imperialistic and totalitarian. He believes that Muslims can conquer Europe via demographic jihad. He denies that men and women are equal. He wrote an anti-Semitic play in high school, with a plot borrowed from The Protocols of the Elders of Zion. He once endorsed a German faction of al-Qaeda. He is also a catastrophic failure in economic matters. He had the constitution rewritten to invest himself with unlimited executive powers. And yet he is shameless enough to market himself as a human rights advocate to The Washington Post.
[Cartoon: Turkish dissidents satirize Tayyip Erdogan, the totalitarian president of Turkey, in an iconic cartoon called “The Erdogan Zoo” (2005). Erdogan sued the cartoonists for libel and lost.] 
Canan is not alone in her vigorous critiques. Turkish intelligentsia often voice colorful criticisms towards Islam as well. Past examples include Aziz Nesin, who caused a violent rampage by translating The Satanic Verses into Turkish, Muazzez Ilmiye Cig, who claimed that the Islamic headscarf was originally worn by Sumerian prostitutes, and Fazil Say, a famous pianist who quoted satirical verses comparing the Islamic paradise to a brothel.Turkish secularists marched in solidarity with the Hebdo magazine.
Canan’s critiques are also consistent with the philosophy of Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, the statesman who established the modern Turkish republic. Kemal was a stern critic of Islam. In an official letter, he used the word tahrifat [desecration] and safsata [charlatanism] to describe the opening verses of the Quran. In a formal address to the Turkish parliament, he criticized the idea of divine revelation. In a personal epistle, he ridiculed the Muslim concept of paradise and martyrdom. His subsequent reforms involved dissolving the clerical classpurging Turkish from Arabic and Persian vocabularyand restoring historical churches converted into mosques. He also disbanded the Caliphate, the Islamic version of the Vatican, via parliamentary decree. Terrorist organizations such as al-Qaeda and ISIS are failed attempts at resurrecting the Caliphate.
Kemal’s political legacy is upheld by Cumhuriyet Halk Partisi, which represents the second largest electorate with fifteen million voters (30%). Kemalists mustered millions to chant slogans against Islamic fundamentalism in 2007. Kemalist politicians have called for abolishing the Ministry of Religious Affairsending compulsory religious education, and outlawing the Muslim Brotherhood. CHP’s official registered agent in the United States, Yurter Ozcan, has accused CNN of spreading Islamist propaganda. Onder Sav, former vice president, once criticized Muslim pilgrims for “allowing Mohammad to steal their money.” CHP’s official policy states an orientation in favor of NATO and the European Union. The party is popular among religious and ethnic minorities.
Kaftancioglu’s comments are protected under the universal principles of free speech and liberty of conscience. There is no credible basis for a jail sentence according to binding precedent from the Court of Cassationthe European Court of Human Rightsthe International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights. However, tyrants like Erdogan rarely abide by international laws.
The prison sentence handed to Kaftancioglu, if upheld, will have an enormous chilling effect on the free speech rights of all dissidents and religious minorities worldwide.

The Short Turkish Woman Who Threatens Erdogan and Islam
BY DANIEL GREENFIELD

Erdogan, Turkey's tyrant, is not our friend. 
Like all Islamists, he's an enemy of the United States and of all free people. Under Erdogan, Turkey is going the way of Pakistan. It's becoming an angry Islamist fortress, exporting terrorism abroad, whining about its victimhood, while silencing free speech.
Especially speech that offends Islamists.
One such blasphemy case, that of Canan Kaftancioglu, is the topic of a recent Front Page Magazine article. 
 Her father was assassinated by Islamists.
Islamists are furious because they lost Istanbul, and Canan has now become their scapegoat – given her courageous and colorful rhetoric. Canan once quipped on Twitter: “men with small dicks want to build big mosques.” She posted pictures of herself eating pork (forbidden in Islam) and acknowledged the historical reality of the Armenian Genocide. She once wrote, “stop praying, Muslims: there is no room left in paradise.”
Having your father assassinated might not dispose you kindly toward Islamists. And Islamists aren't kindly disposed toward people.
Thus, Canan is facing a ten year blasphemy sentence.
Her case, like those of previous targets of blasphemy law, are important because they remind us of two things.
1. Islam is fundamentally intolerant. There can be no freedom under Islamic law.
2. The Islamization of Turkey is an assault on human rights. And the Erdogan regime, despite being backed by Obama and the EU, is a murderous abomination that we should not support in any way. There should be no room for Erdogan in the White House.

ANTI-GUN ATTORNEYS GENERAL FROM 21 LIBERAL STATES PUSH SO-CALLED “UNIVERSAL” BACKGROUND CHECKS FOR AMMUNITION

Schultz’s bill, H.R. 1705, states:
It shall be unlawful for any person who is not a licensed importer, licensed manufacturer, or licensed dealer to transfer ammunition to any other person who is not so licensed, unless a licensed importer, licensed manufacturer, or licensed dealer has first taken possession of the ammunition for the purpose of [ having the would-be buyer comply with a NICS background check requirement.]
Universal Background Checks for Ammunition Ammo Ban

ANTI-GUN ATTORNEYS GENERAL FROM 21 LIBERAL STATES PUSH SO-CALLED “UNIVERSAL” BACKGROUND CHECKS FOR AMMUNITION 
BY NRAHQ
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational and research purposes:
Fairfax, VA – -(Ammoland.com)- Gun control laws aren’t about stopping violent criminals, they are about burdening law-abiding gun owners.
Few pieces of anti-gun legislation illustrate this fact better than H.R.1705/S.1924, which would extend anti-gun lawmakers’ cumbersome so-called “universal” background check proposal to cover the commercial and private transfers of ammunition. On September 23, 2019, this onerous plan received the support of 21 politically minded state attorneys general, who signed a letter to congressional leadership advocating for the proposal.
H.R.1705, introduced by Rep. Debbie Wasserman Shultz (D-Fla.), would treat commercial sales of ammunition in the same manner as the commercial sale of firearms. Under the legislation, any person seeking to purchase ammunition at a store would be required to undergo an FBI National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) check before acquiring the ammunition.

Moreover, the legislation would encumber nearly all private transfers of ammunition. The bill provides,

“It shall be unlawful for any person who is not a licensed importer, licensed manufacturer, or licensed dealer to transfer ammunition to any other person who is not so licensed, unless a licensed importer, licensed manufacturer, or licensed dealer has first taken possession of the ammunition for the purpose of complying” with the NICS background check requirement.
The legislation provides a minor exemption for ammunition transfers between immediate family members. There are other narrow exemptions for transfers “at a shooting range or in a shooting gallery or other area designated for the purpose of target shooting,” “while reasonably necessary for the purposes of hunting, trapping, or fishing,” or “while in the presence of the transferor.”
It is difficult to overstate how burdensome this policy would be for gun owners. Forcing all ammunition sales through a Federal Firearms Licensee would put non-FFL ammunition sellers out of business. This would severely curtail the availability of ammunition to the average gun owner. Gun owners would no longer be able to order ammo through the mail directly to their home, as they would need to have an FFL run a background check before taking possession of the ammunition.
Every law-abiding gun owner would be forced into a potentially lengthy background check procedure each time they purchased ammunition. A shooter couldn’t pick up a box of .22lr from his friend on the way to the range. A reloader couldn’t give a friend a new rifle load for them to try out on their own property.
This inconvenience is not a trivial matter. According to the 2018 NICS Operations Report, only 70 percent of NICS checks result in an instant determination, while 10 percent result in a significant delay. Only 1.2 percent of checks result in a denial.
Many individuals experience a delay for merely sharing a personal characteristic similar to that of someone with a potentially prohibiting record in NICS. FBI notes that “A delay response from the NICS Section indicates the subject of the background check has been matched with either a state or federal potentially prohibiting record containing a similar name and/or similar descriptive features (name, sex, race, date of birth, state of residence, social security number, height, weight, or place of birth).”
It is bad enough that such delays are so prevalent when Americans purchase firearms, which are a durable good. Extending this to ammunition sales, which occur with far more frequency because ammunition is a consumable good, would compound this injustice.
Despite being the top law enforcement officials in their respective states, it does not appear as if the anti-gun attorneys general know anything about existing federal gun laws. According to their letter to congress, the proposed legislation,
would make it illegal for individuals who are already “prohibited purchasers” under federal law – including convicted felons, domestic abusers, and individuals with serious mental health conditions – from purchasing or possessing ammunition.
The attorneys general might find it interesting to learn that prohibited persons are already barred from purchasing or possessing ammunition. 18 USC 922(g) provides that it is unlawful for a prohibited person,
to ship or transport in interstate or foreign commerce, or possess in or affecting commerce, any firearm or ammunition; or to receive any firearm or ammunition which has been shipped or transported in interstate or foreign commerce.
A prohibited person found in possession of a single round of ammunition faces up to 10 years imprisonment.
The attorneys general also appear unaware that the U.S. has already experimented with federal ammunition control. The Gun Control Act of 1968 required all ammunition dealers to be federally licensed. Moreover, the GCA required all ammunition dealers to keep a record of sales of
ammunition to any person unless the licensee notes in his records, required to be kept pursuant to section 923 of this chapter, the name, age, and place of residence of such person if the person is an individual…
The experiment was not a success.
In 1982 .22 caliber rimfire ammunition was removed from the record-keeping requirement. In 1984, the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee concluded that ammunition dealer licensing “was not necessary to facilitate legitimate Federal law enforcement interests.” In 1986, the director of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms supported eliminating the record keeping requirement: “The Bureau and the [Treasury] Department have recognized that current recordkeeping requirements for ammunition have no substantial law enforcement value.” As a result, the Firearms Owners Protection Act of 1986 repealed the ammunition restrictions.
Federal ammunition control is a proven failure. Of course, that’s if the goal was to prevent criminal violence.
The current legislation pushed by Wasserman Schultz and the attorneys general is aimed at harassing law-abiding gun owners to further burden the exercise of their Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms. If enacted, H.R.1705/S.1924 would achieve this detestable intent.

AFRICA: MUSLIMS EXPAND THEIR JIHAD CRUSADES IN MULTIPLE COUNTRIES AGAINST CHRISTIANS, RAPING, MURDERING

Nigeria: Muslim group executes 2 Christian aid workers, vows to kill every Christian it captures
BY CHRISTINE DOUGLASS-WILLIAMS
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational and research purposes:
The jihadist group Boko Haram “has released a video in which its militants executed two Christian aid workers in Nigeria and vow to kill every believer they capture in the future.”
Christians in Nigeria continue to be savaged by jihadists from all sides. Between Boko Haram and the Fulani jihadists, a genocide is in active progress, while the generally post-Christian West has little will to defend the rights of helpless, peaceful Christians. Another report from the Christian Post notes that the media has been mum about this persecution and “conveniently glosses over the one-sided nature of the violence in the region: The Fulani and Boko Haram are the hammers and the Christians are the nails.” The president of Nigeria, Muhammadu Buhari, is also the son of a Fulani chief.
“Boko Haram militants execute two Christian aid workers, release video footage,” by Leah MarieAnn Klett, Christian Post, October 1, 2019:
Islamic extremist group Boko Haram has released a video in which its militants executed two Christian aid workers in Nigeria and vow to kill every believer they capture in the future.
According to Morning Star News, the terrorist group released the video last week on its official news agency site Amaq. In the video, Lawrence Duna Dacighir and Godfrey Ali Shikagham, both members of the Church of Christ in Nigeria (COCIN) in Plateau state, are shown kneeling while three masked, armed men stand behind them.
The two young men, who had gone to Maiduguri to help build shelters for people displaced by Islamic extremist violence, are then shot from behind. Speaking in the Hausa language, one terrorist states the group has vowed to kill every Christian they capture in revenge for Muslims killed in past religious conflicts in Nigeria.
Pastor Pofi, a cousin of the two executed Christians, told Morning Star News that the two men were captured by Boko Haram, now called the Islamic State in West Africa Province (ISWAP), as they carried out their work in a displaced persons camps.
“Lawrence and Godfrey left Abuja for Maiduguri in search of opportunities to utilize their skills for the betterment of humanity and paid with their lives,” Pofi said. “We will never get their corpses to bury. The community will have to make do with a makeshift memorial to these young lives cut short so horrifically.”
Pastor Pofi argued that if the federal government had created economic opportunities for those tempted to join extremist groups and had returned security to the country, the two Christian men would not be dead.
“We must ask ourselves if this is the kind of country we want where young men who are earning an honest living are brutally killed while those who abduct and kill others are invited to dialogue with government and paid handsomely,” he said.
In a letter to the United Nations secretary-general, Emmanuel Ogebe of the U.S.-Nigeria Law Group, a legal consulting firm with an emphasis on human rights, said the recent spate of murders amount to “ethnic cleansing.”
“More executions of humanitarian workers could yet occur,” Ogebe wrote to the U.N.
Nigeria ranks as the 12th-worst nation in the world when it comes to Christian persecution. Boko Haram is one of the most violent terrorist groups in the world, wreaking havoc in Nigeria’s northeast and Lake Chad region. Over the last decade, the group has killed an estimated 35,000 civilians and displaced thousands more.
In July, Boko Haram splinter group ISWAP — a group that has ties to Islamic State terrorists — kidnapped six Christian aid workers from the humanitarian group Action Against Hunger. The group later released a video in which the captured aid workers begged the Nigerian government for help.
Last week, militants released a video of them beheading one of the abducted men and blaming the Nigerian government for deceiving them after months of negotiations. They have also said that if nothing is done, they will execute the other five captives as well…..

 Uganda: Muslim converts to Christianity, Muslims
set his house on fire, killing his wife, children,
and stepfather
BY ROBERT SPENCER
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational and research purposes:
The death penalty for apostasy is part of Islamic law. It’s based on the Qur’an: “They wish you would disbelieve as they disbelieved so you would be alike. So do not take from among them allies until they emigrate for the cause of Allah. But if they turn away, then seize them and kill them wherever you find them and take not from among them any ally or helper.” (Qur’an 4:89)
A hadith depicts Muhammad saying: “Whoever changed his Islamic religion, then kill him” (Bukhari 9.84.57). The death penalty for apostasy is part of Islamic law according to all the schools of Islamic jurisprudence.
This is still the position of all the schools of Islamic jurisprudence, both Sunni and Shi’ite. Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi, the most renowned and prominent Muslim cleric in the world, has stated: “The Muslim jurists are unanimous that apostates must be punished, yet they differ as to determining the kind of punishment to be inflicted upon them. The majority of them, including the four main schools of jurisprudence (Hanafi, Maliki, Shafi’i, and Hanbali) as well as the other four schools of jurisprudence (the four Shiite schools of Az-Zaidiyyah, Al-Ithna-‘ashriyyah, Al-Ja’fariyyah, and Az-Zaheriyyah) agree that apostates must be executed.”
Qaradawi also once famously said: “If they had gotten rid of the apostasy punishment, Islam wouldn’t exist today.”
“Christian in Uganda Loses Children, Mother and Stepfather to Islamist Attack, Sources Say,” Morning Star News, October 2, 2019:
NAIROBI, Kenya (Morning Star News) – A 36-year-old Christian near Kampala, Uganda is mourning the deaths of his son, daughter, mother and stepfather, who were killed when Muslim extremists set their house ablaze seven weeks ago, sources said.
Before the radical Muslims set Ali Nakabale’s house on fire on Aug. 20 in Nakaseke, Nakaseke District about 50 kilometers (31 miles) from Kampala, his wife and other area Muslims had become enraged that he and his mother had converted from Islam to Christianity, Nakabale said. He and his 56-year-old mother, Nankya Hamidah, had put their faith in Christ at an open-air evangelistic event in August 2018.
“I had just visited my aunt only to receive sad news of the burning of our house,” the distraught Nakabale told Morning Star News by phone. “Upon arriving home, I found the house destroyed by fire that burned my four family members, including my two children. On reaching the mortuary, I found their bodies burned beyond recognition.”
Killed along with Hamidah were Joseph Masembe, who had also left Islam to follow Christ and had married Hamidah in November 2018 after her husband’s death earlier that year; Nakabale’s 9-year-old daughter, Afsa Lawada; and his 6-year-old son, Yakubu Njabuga.
A neighbor told Morning Star News that he and others became aware of the fire at 1 a.m. on Aug. 20.
“We saw fire emanating from the house of Hamidah with loud chants from Muslims saying, ‘Allah Akbar [God is greater],’” said the neighbor on condition of anonymity. “Arriving at the scene of the incident, we found that the house had been razed down, killing the four family members.”
Nakabale said that the mosque leader of the Kyanja area of Nakaseke had written a letter to his stepfather, Masembe, stating, “It has come to our attention that since you got married to Hamidah, you have not been attending the mosque.”
“At this, then I realized that the Muslims were monitoring our movements,” Nakabale told Morning Star News….
