I Smell a Fatwa Coming.

Neat interview with Mosab Hassan Yousef, but I'm not so sure it's such a good idea for Fox News to publish the location of this guy's church. He sure has got some guts. He'd better have some kevlar and ammo too.

JONATHAN HUNT: Why, after 25 years, did you change?

MOSAB HASSAN YOUSEF: I believe that all those walls that Islam built for the last 1,400 years are not existing (sic) anymore. They don't recognize this. They built those walls and made people ignorant because they're afraid. They didn't want people to discuss anything about the reality of Islam, about the big questions of Islam and they asked their followers, the Muslims, 'Don't ask about those certain questions. But now, people have media. If the father closes the door for his daughter not to leave the house, she's going to go behind her computer and travel the world. So people easily can get information, knowledge, searching (sic) engines, so it's very, very available for everybody to study about Islam, about other religions. Not from the Islam point of view, but from other points of view.

So for the next 25 years this is for sure going to make huge change in the Muslim and the Arab world.





I know I've said this before, but I think a lot of people need to realize what a major renaissance the internet is creating in the world. With the internet there's no space, time, or difficulty preventing people from talking to each other finding the truth. That muslim girl doesn't need to go to the library, or sneak into a church, or find a hotline, she just needs to log on. I imagine that's very scary to the Islamists.
