Thank God Olaf Wiig and Steve Centanni are O.K.

Centanni said that during his capture, he was held at times face down in a dark garage, tied up in painful positions, and that he and Wiig were forced at gunpoint to make statements, including that they had converted to Islam.


the Pals are such lovely lovely people....
Of course there is no reason for other reporters to 'not'
cover their story.....(sarc)

Islam and guns

Islam and murder

Islam winning "converts" with the threat of death ...

This brings up an interesting question for me. I wonder if either man believed in Christ as his Savior before this "conversion" to Islam.

Dead Men walking. Their renunciation of their conversion makes them worthy of death according to the ROP

How many on this thread have actually been held captive by terrorists, and can realistically say how they would act?

[seasoned traditionalist]

Something that has escaped me (and others) and I'm curious about, is the process by which they were subjected to in converting to Islam?

What did they make them do, put their hands (and which one as they only eat with their left) on the Qu'ran and swear to Allah they would henceforth be members in good standing and uphold the values and traditions of this "Religion of Peace?" all the while with a gun pointed at their heads?

Detail, details!!! Inquiring minds want to know.

I'll give them benefit of doubt (and a week) to publicly denounce their captors and make it known they are renouncing this forced conversion to this gutter religion, then all bets are off--although I wouldn't bet the farm that this will come to pass.
