      Thanks for the link up, didn’t mean to come across as quite so aggressive but I just think its about time Christians started taking this threat seriously, they are misrepresenting Jesus to a large portion of the world! After all aren’t we told in Jude 3 to ‘earnestly contend’ for the faith that was passed onto us?

      People expect Moderate Muslims to rid us of the threat of Islamic terrorism because its supposedly not what real Islam represents, so shouldn’t Christians be doing more to combat teaching that is clearly not what Jesus taught?

      You shouldn’t apologise, it’s a form of Christianity that needs vigorous rebuttal and rejection. So keep going!
