What's an infidel?

This is a true story and the author, Rick Mathes, is a well-known leader in
prison ministry.


The man who walks with God always

gets to his destination.If you have a

pulse you have a purpose.


The Muslim religion is the fastest

growing religion per capita in the

United States , especially in the

minority races!!


Last month I attended my annual

training session that's required for

maintaining my state prison

security clearance.

During the training session there was a presentation by three speakers

representing the Roman Catholic,

Protestant and Muslim faiths,

who each explained their beliefs.



I was particularly interested in

what the Islamic had to say.

The Muslim gave a great presentation

of the basics of Islam, complete

with a video.



After the presentations, time was

provided for questions and answers.

When it was my turn, I directed

my question to the Muslim and asked:

'Please, correct me if I'm wrong,

but I understand that most Imams and

clerics of Islam have declared

a holy jihad [Holy war] against the

infidels of the world and, that by

killing an infidel,

(which is a command to all Muslims)

they are assured of a place in heaven.

If that's the case, can you give me

the definition of an infidel?'



There was no disagreement with my

statements and, without hesitation,

he replied, 'Non-believers!'

I responded, 'So, let me make sure

I have this straight. All followers of

Allah have been commanded to kill

everyone who is not of your faith so

they can have a place in heaven.

Is that correct?'

The expression on his face

changed from one of authority

and command to that of a

little boy who had just been

caught with his hand

in the cookie jar.'



He sheepishly replied, 'Yes.'



I then stated, 'Well, sir, I have

a real problem trying to

imagine The Pope commanding

all Catholics to kill those of

your faith or Dr.Stanley ordering

all Protestants to do the same

in order to guarantee them

a place in heaven!'

The Muslim was speechless!


I continued, 'I also have a

problem with being your friend

when you and your brother clerics

are telling your followers to

kill me! Let me ask you a question:

Would you rather have your Allah,

who tells you to kill me in

order for you to go to heaven,

or my Jesus who tells me to

love you because I am going

to heaven and He wants you

to be there with me?'

You could have heard a pin

drop as the Imam hung his

head in shame.


Needless to say, the organizers

and/or promoters of the

'Diversification' training seminar

were not happy with my way

of dealing with the Islamic Imam,

and exposing the truth

about the Muslims' beliefs.

In twenty years there will be

enough Muslim voters in the

U.S. to elect the President!


I think everyone in the U.S.

should be required to read this,

but with the ACLU, there is no

way this will be widely

publicized, unless each of us

sends it on! This is your chance

to make a difference...



Please, for Christ's sake, send it on!
