Atheist professor: I will mock Christians but not Muslims because of 'straight up fear'
Christian Examiner ^ | 11/03/2015 | Kelly Ledbetter

"I absolutely agree that it is okay for those of the Left to critique, mock, [and] deride Christianity, but Islam gets a free pass," Zuckerman told CNSNews.com. "Which is so strange, because if you care about women's rights, if you care about human rights, if you care about gay rights, then you really... uh... then Islam is much more problematic."

From a human rights perspective, Christian nations are among the most successful, yet Zuckerman said he would not criticize Islam for fear of execution.

"As an atheist, where on planet Earth is the death penalty meted out to atheists? It's only in, I think, 24 Muslim countries. Where have human rights flourished the most? In Christian nations."

So put bluntly, you don’t have the power of your convictions, because you frankly have no convictions, just a coward.

Looking forward to the day when a typical Muslim’s last words will be,

“Kaffir, you’re not going to kill me, so just hand over the gun.”

“Red coward. And he has freely admitted that violence is the only thing he understands or respects.”

Because cowards only go after those who won’t defend themselves.

Which I interpret to mean that Christians should start invoking more fear, and they will have less troubles with these sorts of little-big-mouths.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the “other” articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)

The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
