I find it ironic that they will crap all over the media reported Muslim's zealous enforcement of their faith, yet fail to recognize the dangers inherent in their own Christian Militia, and dogged hatred (and death chants by Christian preachers) for Obama, and others that are not like them: gay, black, atheist etc.
http://www.assistnews.net/Stories/2010/s10040103.htm (ANS) -- The Assyrian International News Agency (www.aina.org), is reporting the shocking news that Dina el-Gowhary, a 15-year-old Egyptian Muslim-born girl who converted to Christianity, has been subjected to an acid attack, the latest in a string of failed attempts by Muslim fanatics against her and her father, 57-year-old Peter Athanasius (Maher el-Gowhary), who converted to Christianity 35 years ago.

Through an aired interview with Free Copts advocacy, Abdelmassih said that Dina had addressed an open letter to President Mubarak of Egypt begging him to “save her and her father” and also be allowed to “leave Egypt”.
Dina said that she had written previously to U.S. President Barrack Obama, who “got her message and responded to it”.
It was reported that the el-Gowhary’s met with the US Committee on International Religious Freedom on their last visit to Egypt in January 2010, and that they asked for asylum in the United States.
Dina said that she wonders whether she will get the same attention from President Mubarak as she did from President Obama.
“Will he listen and lend us a helping hand, if, as they claim, he truly does not differentiate between Muslim and Christian citizens?” she pondered.
And the responses:
I imagine Barack would do far worse things to his daughters if they left Islam.

What legitimacy could a so-called “religion” have when the followers have to resort to threats and terrorism to prevent people from leaving it? Can Islam not stand up Christianity when the facts about both are compared side to side?

I find the second post particularly laughable given all the threads I have read at freeperville regarding beating the love of god into their children. Beating the kids in school (with regards to the new rule in some Texas school to reintroduce corporate punishment) to put the fear of god in them. Living in a Red State, I see the threats doled out for those kids that don't want to attend Sunday worship or go on their compelled 2 year mission. Ironic indeed.
