American Churches Are Promoting Islam

from Conservativebyte.com:

I find this particularly appalling.  I am a Presbyterian and I was disturbed and dismayed that a Presbyterian Church in Denver was handing out free Korans.  This is a good example of Christians not being believers in their own religion and its message.

Shocker! Churches promoting Islam




Posted on June 24, 2011 by Conservative Byte









Dozens of churches, from Park Hill Congregational in Denver to Hillview United Methodist in Boise, Idaho, and First United Lutheran in San Francisco to St. Elizabeth’s Episcopal Church in Honolulu, are planning to send “a message both here at home and to the Arab and Muslim world about our respect for Islam” with a time to read the Quran during worship this Sunday.



It’s not just wrong, but dangerous, according to Christian trends analysts.



The aim of the program, which is promoted by social activists behind the Faith Shared website, is to counter the message from Islamic activists who say opposition to their religion is the product of what they call a cottage industry of hate.



So the Interfaith Alliance and Human Rights First is calling on Christian clergy to read portions of the Quran during their services Sunday.
