Darma Bakti Ginting the leader of Indonesia's Islamic Defenders Front literally found himself on the defensive when he was attacked by housewife's who stopped him and his armed goons evicting a women from her home.
What an utter prat Ginting is for trying to evict a women with her new born baby and how revealing that it took housewife's not beards to stand up for justice by protecting an innocent woman and her new born child from the leader of a mass organisation that has the cheek to call itself Islamic.
LM resorting to misanthropic objectification again. Imagine if the situation were reversed & women were referred to by an equivalent secondary sexual characteristic e.g. boobs?
ReplyDeleteCrush Koran-Haters by Exposing the "Rapture"
ReplyDeleteConcerning the "May 21, 2011 Judgment Day" message on Dubai billboards that offended many Muslims and was removed, here are some facts that Muslim scholars should widely publish:
Christians have always believed in the Second Coming of Christ. But in the internet literature of the sponsor of the "May 21" date-setting (Family Radio Worldwide of California) is found the promotion of a secret coming of Christ, called the "Rapture," which reportedly happens not only years BEFORE the well-known Second Coming but even BEFORE the "tribulation" period preceding the final Second Coming!
This secret ("can happen at any moment") Rapture concept was totally unknown in all official Christian theology books and organized churches before 1830 - the year some unlearned and unbalanced fanatics in Britain claimed to have found it "hidden" in the Bible! (The appeal of this new endtime view was the "assurance" of being raptured off earth BEFORE the horrible events symbolized throughout the book of Revelation.)
Journalist/historian David MacPherson's research of 40 years, resulting in eight books and many articles, has uniquely focused on the early development of the same "fly-away" belief, the astounding origin of which was well-known in certain 19th century British evangelical circles and then covered up for a century.
This escapist event, known theologically as the "any-moment, pre-tribulation Rapture doctrine," is promoted almost exclusively these days by tens of millions of very conservative American evangelicals often labeled as fundamentalists.
Note that these are the most strongly pro-Israel and anti-Islam (Koran burning) part of American Christianity - and many among them view Islam as the great "scourge" during the Antichrist's "tribulation" (see "beheaded" in Rev. 20:4)!
Even though the same conservatives are seen as "infighting fundies," their ballyhooed Rapture always seems to be the best "glue" uniting them together in victorious voting blocs during elections, not to mention the fact that Rapture promotion is also a superlative fund raiser for political agendas. If you think there aren't big bucks in selling the same British fantasy, consider the fact that two of the bestselling books of all time were "Rapture" books written by two conservative American evangelicals, namely, Hal Lindsey (35 million sold) and Tim LaHaye (65 million sold).
The world of Islam could easily cripple - if not demolish - American evangelicalism if it provided Islamic scholars around the world with MacPherson's bestselling, nonfiction, 300-page book "The Rapture Plot" (available at Armageddon Books and other online stores).
MacPherson has stated in articles that "dishonesty" (including massive plagiarism and the devious changing of early documents) best describes the bizarre, 181-year-old, British-invented pre-tribulation Rapture view (Google "Pretrib Rapture Dishonesty" and "Pretrib Rapture Diehards").
Is Islam interested in silencing the most vocal haters of Islam? Islamic leaders can achieve this by thoroughly exposing the merchandising-for-political-goals Rapture view which since 1909 has been the favorite belief of tens of millions of American evangelicals!
