• Tennessee Lt. Gov. Ron Ramsey, lagging in polls in the Republican gubernatorial primary race
• Dove World Outreach Center wants to burn the Quran
• Sylvia and TerryJones says–This is not about hate but about Christian truth — and bringing Muslims to convert.
• Christians might be surprised to discover the Quran mentions Jesus 25 times and gives him the highest reverence possible in Islam.
• One North Central Florida neighborhood is in an uproar over a sign that’s posted along the street. They say it’s a sign of hate.
• Residents in the area of the Mile Run neighborhood say it has always been a peaceful place until yesterday, when they started to take notice of a sign they say is hateful.

One of the residents of the area says the following:

Driving past this sign has become a very dispiriting part of my commute to work, and has served as an object lesson for my children on intolerance. They have a hard time understanding how the beliefs of their elementary school classmates can be called “of the devil.” I have to agree. I certainly hope that the Dove Outreach Center will realize that they are not going to persuade anyone to their point of view with this deliberately inflammatory approach. I also hope they realize how badly they have damaged their reputation in the neighborhood with their disrespectful behavior…

Another says:

According to the Dr. Islam “every other religion besides Christianity is doomed”, so why just pick out Islam? Why not put up a sign for Judaism or Hinduism or Buddism? I wonder why

Another says:

This sigh has demolished beautiful values which I tried to sow in my kids hearts ….

Tennessee Lt. Gov. Ron Ramsey, lagging in polls in the Republican gubernatorial primary race, according to Talking Points Memo, says he’s not sure if Constitutional guarantees of freedom of religion apply to Islam, since, he says, Islam may be a cult, not actually a religion.

Now, you could even argue whether being a Muslim is actually a religion, or is it a nationality, way of life, cult whatever you want to call it.

Ramsey did not dispute the video of his remarks posted at TPM and answered its request for comment with an email:

My concern is that far too much of Islam has come to resemble a violent political philosophy more than peace-loving religion. It’s time for American Muslims who love this country to publicly renounce violent jihadism and to drum those who seek to do America harm out of their faith community.

So, are the vast majority of U.S. pastors who would never dream of burning a Quran going to call out the Dove World Outreach Center?

That’s the Florida church, which calls itself “a New Testament, Charismatic, Non-Denominational Church that believes in the whole Bible,” which posted a roadside sign this month, “Islam is of the Devil” and has now stepped up its campaign against Islam.

According to Religion News Service, the church is planning “International Burn A Quran Day,” on the ninth anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks this year — smack during Eid al-Fitr, the Islamic feast days at the conclusion of the Ramadan fast.

The Friendly Atheist blogger Hemant Mehta called up Jones to ask what’s behind the burn. Jones tells him this is not about hate but about Christian truth — and bringing Muslims to convert. Says Jones:

We love the Moslems and hope that they would come to true salvation. What we are attacking is Islam, the religion, and Sharia law, the political system.

Brent Michael Dykes, blogging at Yahoo’s The Upshot, observes Christians might be surprised to discover the Quran mentions Jesus 25 times and considers him a prophet, great spiritual leader and teacher. This also adds fuel to the anti-Islamic fires evident at mosque-building protests in New York this month. And Ramsey may have been playing to the crowd opposing a new Islamic center planned for Murfreesboro, Tenn., according to TPM.

Any angry critics says the following:

I have been a member in Terry Jones church in Cologne Germany over 20 years and have been one of the elders until 2008. He and his wife are conducted by “narcissism”.

We really was shocked to see the videos and the comments.
I think it is imperative, that the Jones couple do not only take a clear stand regarding the Islam, but also to take a clear stand to there criminal activities
in Germany. Ask Terry Jones about illegal money transfers, private payments from offerings and tithes, unpaid debts in Germany, financial and
spiritual abuse of church members and much more.

In Gainesville you have the same situations.

What about the academy of DWOC? What about the illegal workers in DWOC?

In the past many people came from Germany to Gainesville with a religious visa and ended up working for his private business. (See ebay under: tsandcompany and artcollector-usa”).

He confronts sin, but what about his and Sylvias sins?

We can give you much more informations, if you want. I myself have been several times in Gainesville and know how this people act. Why did he escape from Germany?

It was not the Islam or persecution, it was fear.

Fear to take responsibility for the things that he has done here and in the church of Cologne. The founders wife “Dolores Northrup” also left the church some month ago, because she could not anymore agree with the
activities of Sylvia and Terry Jones. Best regards, voiceless, Cologne, Germany

Didn’t they say that the Vietnamese and the Cambodians are out to destroy the American way of life. They were Buddhists.

Don’t they say the same about the Chinese. Many Chinese are Buddhists.

The Godless Communists were also trying to destroy the American way of life!

If you read the Neocons the Nicaraguans want to destroy America too. They are Catholics.

As far the moniker “Allah” is concerned, most Christians in the Arab world use the wolrd “Allah” to refer to God.

Al-Lah, or The Lah, has the same etymological root as Lahiem or El. (See History of God by Karen Armstrong)

Islam is the symbiosis of Christianity and Judaism. Every time to criticize Islam you will see the root in the Abrahamic religions.

Islam gives the highest reverence possible to Jesus and mentions Jesus 25 times. The prophet Muhammad called Jesus “his favorite” and the Quran refers to his as “the spirit of God”

May peace be upon all of you and on Jones–may be see the light.

Was Salaam
