Whats's Diversification? 

Needless to say, the organizers and/or promoters of this 'Diversification' training seminar were not happy with Rick Mathes' way of dealing with the Islamic Imam, and exposing the truth about the Muslims' beliefs. 

In twenty years there will be enough Muslim voters in the US. to elect the President. 

Everyone in the U.S. should pass this on, otherwise there is no way this will be widely publicized, unless each of us sends it on. This is your chance to make a difference!

Bio: The author, Rick Mathes, is a well-known leader in prison ministries. As a Christian who lives his faith, he offers up a unique world view without hate-filled demagoguery but about an understanding of what Islam teaches and how all religions must interact in love.

Both Christianity and Islam religions refer to a patriarch named Abraham rooted in monotheistic traditions. Islam started in the year 610 AD to diverge immediately into a faction branding all non-believers as "infidels" to be put to death according to many passages in the Qur'an. 

Even today in Jerusalem, Israel where the sacred path, Via Dolorosa or Way of Suffering, that Jesus walked carrying his cross to the crucifixion and is marked along the way with the twelve stations of cross there is a sign hanging from balconies above the second station of the cross that profess "Jesus was a slave of Allah."--that's interesting since Jesus died 610 years before Islam was invented. Haven't seen any signs, much less any cartoons, even near any one of the mosques like the sacred shrine of Dome of the Rock in the Holy City areas...Why not?

Allah or Jesus?

I attended my annual training session that’s required for maintaining my state prison security clearance. During the training session there was a presentation by three speakers who represented the Roman Catholic, Protestant and Muslim faiths who explained their belief systems. I was particularly interested in what the Islamic Imam had to say.

What's an Infidel?

The Imam gave a great presentation of the basics of Islam complete with a video. After the presentations time was provided for questions and answers. When it was my turn I directed my question to the Imam and asked: “Please, correct me if I’m wrong, but I understand that all of the Imams and clerics of Islam have declared a holy jihad [Holy war] against the infidels of the world. And, that by killing an infidel, which is a command to all Muslims, they are assured of a place in heaven. If that’s the case, can you give me the definition of an infidel?”

There was no disagreement with my statements and without hesitation the Imam replied, “Non-believers!”

I responded, “So, let me make sure I have this straight. All followers of Allah have been commanded to kill everyone who is not of your faith so they can go to heaven. Is that correct?”

The expression on his face changed from one of authority and command to that of a little boy who had just gotten caught with his hand in the cookie jar. The Iman sheepishly replied, “Yes.”

I then said, “Well, sir, I have a real problem trying to imagine the Pope commanding all Catholics to kill those of your faith or Pat Robertson or Dr. Stanley ordering Protestants to do the same in order to go to heaven.”

The Imam was speechless.

I continued, “I also have problem with being your friend when you and your brother clerics are telling your followers to kill me. Let me ask you a question…would you rather have your Allah who tell you to kill me in order to go to heaven or my Jesus who tells me to love you because I am going to heaven and wants you to be with me?”

You could have heard a pin drop as the Imam hung his head in shame. 

Chuck Colson once told me something that has sustained me these 20 years of prison ministry. He said to me, “Rick, remember that the truth will prevail.” And it will!
