From Stonewall Jackson, a faith we might all profit from emulating (via Christianity Today):
My religious belief teaches me to feel as safe in battle as in bed. God has fixed the time of my death.
Events of the past week, in which yet another Muslim has wreaked havoc on unarmed men and women, gives us [...]

“a threat to Christian values”
Posted in Islam on September 25, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
A group of Muslims gathered at the Capitol, and, yes, the dome is still standing. The group’s ostensible purpose was prayer. But, as reported at the WaPo:
…some conservative Christians have called the event a threat to Christian values. In a statement, the Rev. Canon Julian Dobbs, leader of the Convocation of [...]
Martyr for Christ?
Posted in Islam on July 2, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
If this story is true, there has been yet another martyr for Christ. This time in an African Muslim country, Mauritania, where a Christian attempting to help the locals was killed (news story). Allegedly for “trying to convert Muslims to Christianity.”
The source for this statement is highly unreliable: Arab terrorists [...]
Dhimmi Hillary

Such high hopes; so quickly those hopes dashed. Hillary Rodham Clinton has shown herself to be just another dhimmi tool of Barack Hussein Obama. Obama was raised a Muslim, and, depending on who you ask, he’s still one. As for his actual beliefs, those count for little in the [...]
Defamation

Nat Hentoff this day reminds us, should we need reminding, that freedom of conscience is always under some attack. In this case it is the United Nations that has urged its member states to make it a crime to “defame” any religion. From Mr. Hentoff’s op-ed:
In an 83 to 53 vote, with [...]
All Monotheisms are Not Alike
Posted in Islam, apologetics on November 24, 2008 | 1 Comment »
From Christianity Today, this extract using the ancient Apostles’ Creed as the basis for understanding how and why God is not the god worshiped by Muslims:
From How can we engage in conversation and still stick to our theological guns? I propose employing the Apostles’ Creed—a time-tested and easily digestible template of basic Christianity—to remind ourselves [...]
Good news from one Marine
Posted in Evangelicals, Iraq, Islam on May 30, 2008 | 2 Comments »
In the military, you are trained first and foremost to think for yourself. Contrary to much public opinion, especially on the Left, Marines are taught to adapt to circumstances and to improvise. And, most certainly not as an afterthought, to obey all lawful orders without hesitation or reservation.
Now we have a [...]
Bad pastor, bad pastor! Go to your room!
Posted in Islam, Politics on May 23, 2008 | 1 Comment »
Another bad pastor: Rev. Rod Parsley, disavowed by John McCain. No, McCain was not in Rev. Parsley’s church; no, Parsley was not McCain’s inspiration, didn’t marry him, didn’t baptize his children. But the bad pastor did make the mistake of endorsing McCain.
Democrats and their enablers in the mainstream media will latch on to almost anything [...]
Spiritual guides
Posted in Islam, Politics on April 5, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
The Left has discovered that John McCain has a “spiritual guide” who, they would have you believe, is every bit a radical as the unlovely Jeremiah Wright. The “guide” is Rod Parsley, and his sin is that he actually stands up for his faith in Christ.
His other sin is that he endorsed John McCain. [...]
God and Allah at Harvard
Posted in Islam, liberty on March 26, 2008 | 2 Comments »
Holy hijab, batman! Militant Islam will always find enablers among fair-minded people. Fair-minded, if, perhaps, a little weak on their history. Ruth Marcus is one such, who writes an oh-so-reasonable column today which could be titled, “why can’t we all just get along?”
The immediate provocations may seem slight: Harvard University restricting access to one of [...]
