Unveiling "Unveiling Islam" – References to the Hadith
One of the points I’ve made in discussing the Caner situation with folks is that Caner’s Muslim critics have focused most of their attention on his oral presentations, rather than on his books. The Caners’ book, Unveiling Islam, has a lot of great material in it. However, a question has been raised about whether the…

Response to "Fake Ex Muslims" – Part 3
I’ve responded to the “Fake Ex Muslims” (FxM) site twice previously (first) and (second). This is the third response. I’ll address a few more issues and then respond to FxM’s responses to my previous section. 1. Insha-Allah or Al-Hamdolilah In one video that FxM has identified, Ergun Caner claims that Muslims say “Insha-Allah” (which I’d…

Responding Again to "Fake Ex Muslims"
In a previous post I had begun to defend Ergun Caner against the accusation that he is a “Fake Ex Muslim” (link to my previous post). This post will have two parts. First it will address several more of the “issues” that the Fake Ex Muslim (FxM) site has identified, and second it will provide…

Responding to "Fake Ex Muslims" Site Regarding Ergun Caner
The “Fake Ex Muslims” (FxM) site has a page of “issues” that are identified with respect to Ergun Caner (link to page). I’d like to respond to a few of these “issues.” 1) Injeel means Angel? In one video that FxM has identified, Ergun Caner stumbles over the Arabic word for an evil spirit. The…

Rick Warren's Prayer
At Obama’s inauguration, Rick Warren gave a prayer. I’ve heard a few Christians up in arms about the prayer, and they generally focus on three things: 1) It was pretty empty. This is a legitimate criticism. There wasn’t much substance to the prayer, and some of the time was spent on “preaching to the choir.”…

Christ's Voluntary Death
I greatly enjoyed the following video by Dr. James White, explaining to a Muslim antagonist the voluntary nature of Christ’s death on the cross: [youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zkRdmuVEVcM&hl=en&fs=1&w=425&h=344] I would add that there is more revelation that declares that Jesus’ sacrifice was voluntary, namely in the prophecy of that great prophet, the prophet Isaiah (prophecying of Jesus…

Not Something One Would Have Seen in Calvin's Geneva
Vatican politically supports construction of additional mosques in Italy (first link) (second link). One would not see Calvin’s Geneva supporting mosque construction. Frankly, I don’t think one would even see Leo X (author of Exsurge Domine, against Luther) supporting mosque construction. Who would like to claim that this view expressed by the Vatican is fully…

Islam's Number One Enemy? Hardly.
Recently, a popular Catholic blogger (Mark Shea) described Coptic priest Zakaria Botros as Islam’s Public Enemy #1 (link to description). Among the reasons given were nine demands that Botros has made of the Islamic world. The demands appear to me to be purely polemical. I’ve rewritten them in my own words based on the presentation…

Dr. White's Most Recent Debate – Audio Posted
The recent James White and David Wood debates on Islam have been posted (apparently in their entireties) to the web. I have posted these without listening to them first, so I may update this page, once I have listened to them, for caveats etc. Is Muhammed a Prophet? Debate between David Wood and Jalal Abualrub(April…
