Mufti Calls for Destruction of All Churches

 People...people...Islam is a religion of peace!  There's just a few bad apples...but let's not let it spoil the cider of this wonderful Abrahamic faith.  Come on now...let's just close our eyes and sing....Kum ba Yah my lord...Kum ba yah....join hands now!

According to several Arabic news sources, last Monday, Sheikh Abdul Aziz bin Abdullah, the Grand Mufti of Saudi Arabia, declared that it is "necessary to destroy all the churches of the region."

The Grand Mufti made his assertion in response to a question posed by a delegation from Kuwait: a Kuwaiti parliament member recently called for the "removal" of churches (he later "clarified" by saying he merely meant that no churches should be built in Kuwait), and the delegation wanted to confirm Sharia's position on churches.

Accordingly, the Grand Mufti "stressed that Kuwait was a part of the Arabian Peninsula, and therefore it is necessary to destroy all churches in it."

As with many grand muftis before him, the Sheikh based his proclamation on the famous tradition, or hadith, wherein the prophet of Islam declared on his deathbed that "There are not to be two religions in the [Arabian] Peninsula," which has always been interpreted to mean that only Islam can be practiced in the region.

While the facts of this account speak for themselves, consider further:
Sheikh Abdul Aziz bin Abdullah is not just some random Muslim hating on churches. He is the Grand Mufti of the nation that brought Islam to the world. Moreover, he is the President of the Supreme Council of Ulema [Islamic scholars] and Chairman of the Standing Committee for Scientific Research and Issuing of Fatwas. Accordingly, when it comes to what Islam teaches, his words are immensely authoritative.

Seriously, I wonder what Islam would have to do to convince the folks who insist on keeping their head in the sand...nuke Israel??  I wonder if that would even change their tone?

I doubt it.  The deception is running so deep and so strong that I doubt there is anything Islam could say or do that would change their minds.  I'm guessing they would probably mutter under their breath, "well, they pretty much deserved it."
