Answering Muslims: Lara Logan: On the Lies about al-Qaeda and the Taliban

David Wood posted a clip from speech given by Lara Logan about how al-Qaeda and the Taliban are still killing American soldiers and our government is covering it up.


 I doubt any of this will change who ever becomes President of the US in November. I think Lara Logan is making good point and given her experiences and years of reporting in the Middle East, we should pay her some attention.

Answering Muslims: Kira Davis Apologizes to President Karzai over Quran Burnings

You may have heard that there are Muslims in Afghanistan who want some Americans to be tried for burning Qur'ans on an American base in Afghanistan. I appreciate David Wood for pointing out this video. I am also thankful that Kira Davis apologized to President Karzai on our behalf!

Answering Muslims: Pregnant Woman Whipped 200 Times, then Shot to Death, in the Name of Islam

I agree that the Bible and the Qur'an both decries fornication and adultery and I agree it's wrong and God does not like it. It is however is against scriptures to punish only the woman especially in such an extreme way - 200 lashes and being shot 3 times!??? It's not justice or mercy. I cannot think of anyway to make what was done right. I disagree that such behavior should be ignored or condoned but I see no way to punish it with violence especially with innocent unborn children involved! Even if you wanna follow the Old Testament laws, these people did not follow them. According to the laws of Moses, both the man and woman are guilt. Both were supposed to be executed not just the woman.

The Daily Mail is reporting that elders in the village of Quds contacted Taliban commanders after the woman's pregnancy became known. A local official said: 'She had an illegal relationship with a man who was not her husband,' adding, 'Her husband died many years before. Then she became pregnant so, according to Islam, we gave her a very strong punishment. It was more than 200 lashes. Then we shot her.'
