Joshua Claybourn offers a post discussing this article by George Neumayr. This leads to discuss this with other bloggers. Is anyone concerned about how their writing will be perceived by people they personally know? One concern of mine, and this may be unique to me due to my blog's name, is that my site may be "confrontational" with people in my church. I'm a United Methodist, and they are more socially active, and liberal, than many other denominations. My pastor took offense at the remarks by Jerry Falwell, (he didn't say this in church, it was at MNF fellowship - yes we do that!) I didn't confront his statement, as he was talking to someone else, but I did think; Mohammed was a violent man, we all know that, so why not call a spade a spade, and admit the truth: he committed acts of terrorism, hence, he was a terrorist. I guess one should avoid judging a living person, pending repentance, but Mohammed's opportunity for repentance is long gone. I've read a lot about Islam since 9/11, and I've come to have doubts about its peaceful nature. I think Falwell was right. So what happens if my pastor reads this blog and disagrees? Will my blog be a source of contention between us?
