New Christian Suffers From Security Police Torture
Five months after he was forcibly committed to a mental hospital
for converting from Islam to Christianity, Gasir Mohammed Mahmoud
has been discharged from his locked psychiatric ward in Cairo and set
free. Mahmoud was released June 9 from Cairo's El-Khanka Hospital for
Mental and Neurological Health, where two police officers from his home
city of Suez had institutionalized him last January. Adopted as an infant,
Mahmoud was raised by [a] Muslim couple, who were alarmed last December
to learn that he had converted to Christianity two years earlier. But his father's
angry appeal to local Muslim sheikhs prompted them to issue death threats
against the son for committing apostasy. Initially, Mahmoud said, he was
questioned "in a decent way" in front of a state security officer named
Mohammed Amar.
He was then transferred to another official who brought two Muslim
sheikhs to talk with him, trying to convince him to return to Islam.
After eight days' detention, eating only food that other detainees
shared with him, he was sent to the Suez Security Directorate
for an investigation that lasted four days. Mahmoud¹s supervising
physician, Dr. Nevine, had told him he would never be allowed to
leave the hospital unless he came back to Islam.
But a round of international publicity released in May focused
considerable attention on the case, apparently convincing hospital
authorities to discharge him. Although Mahmoud¹s mother reserved
a hotel room for him in Cairo after his release, he has since found
other lodging through Christian friends in the city. Egyptian law
forbids Muslims the right to change their official religious identity
when they become Christians, although non-Muslims can freely
convert to Islam and legally change their I.D. cards from Christian
to Muslim.
Under the virtual impunity of emergency law regulations, officers
of Egypt's State Security Investigation regularly harass, interrogate
and arrest Muslim citizens suspected to have converted to Christianity.

George Gershwin
Composer. He is best remembered for his compositions
with his equally talented lyricist older brother, Ira Gershwin.
They are responsible for such hit songs as "Someone to Watch
over Me" (1926), "Love Walked In" (1937), "Love is Here to Stay"
(1937), "Rhapsody in Blue" (1924), and for such musicals as "Of
Thee I sing" (1931 - the first musical to ever win a Pulitzer Prize),
and "Porgy and Bess" (1935). Gershwin songs would find their
way into Hollywood movies and in numerous remixes by popular
singers continuously after his death. MORE!!!

Engaging the City of Man
This is no time for silence, and no time for shirking our responsibilities
as law abiding citizens. Ominous signs of moral collapse and cultural
decay now appear on our contemporary horizon. A society ready to put the
institution of marriage up for demolition and transformation is a society
losing its most basic moral sense. A culture ready to treat human embryos
as material for medical experimentation is a society turning its back on
human dignity and the sacredness of human life.

NASA NO LONGER REMEMBERS
WHY IT LAUNCHED SPACE PROBE
NASA sent shockwaves through the scientific community today by
acknowledging that it could no longer remember why it launched
a space probe over a decade ago. At the Johnson Space Center,
spokesperson Harrison Froling said that NASA scientists were
"working overtime" to try to remember why the space agency
launched the Explorer 17b on May 17, 1995. "We are confident
that the Explorer 17b will expand our understanding of the solar
system and the universe," Mr. Froling said. "We're just not sure
how."

New Book About Islam
1) Mohammed: the "Perfect Man"? Details about his character and in
Mohammed's career of bloody conquest behavior that make him a
dangerous role model.
2) The roots of Islamic terrorism and violence in the Koran and in
Mohammad's career of bloody conquest.
3) The Crusades: not acts of unprovoked aggression by Europe
against the Islamic world, but a delayed response to centuries
of Muslim aggression.
4) How the much-ballyhooed (and grossly exaggerated) "Golden Age"
of Islamic culture was largely inspired by non-Muslims.
5) The ghastly lure of Islam's X-rated Paradise for suicide bombers
and jihad terrorists.
6) Islamic law: how it institutionalizes oppression of Christians,
Jews and other non-Muslims in Islamic societies.
7) How the Koran and Islamic law treat women as nothing more
than possessions of men.
8) Why Western leaders who think non-Muslims can "win hearts
and minds" among Islamic jihadists are naïve.

The Biblical View of Justice
.
A few weeks ago I participated in "Justice Sunday," a nationwide simulcast
urging Christians to lobby their senators against the Senate's filibuster on
judicial nominations. The next day, I appeared on HARDBALL WITH CHRIS
MATTHEWS.
I argued that justice was getting judges appointed to the court who would
interpret the Constitution instead of making up laws. On the other side was
Albert Pennybacker, a minister representing the Clergy and Laity Network
United for Justice. He argued that we need justices who "serve the well-being,
particularly of minority people and people who are in jeopardy." We both
appealed to the same standard: justice.

Jihadists-R-Us
As eight of the most powerful world leaders were convening in Gleneagles,
Scotland for the G8 Summit trying to figure out how to battle poverty,
salvage human lives, stop the AIDS epidemic in Africa and keep our globe
from warming . . . what does militant Islam do to help? Well, they set off
four bombs in the heart of London killing 50+ people and seriously injuring
over 700.
Being the tough guys and mighty combatants that they are, these “warriors of
god” intentionally targeted civilian men, women and children who were stuck
in mass transit being armed only with briefcases, BlackBerry’s and
Starbucks.

Editorial From A Romanian Newspaper
Why are Americans so united? They don't resemble one another even
if you paint them! They speak all the languages of the world and form
an astonishing mixture of civilizations. Some of them are nearly extinct,
others are incompatible with one another, and in matters of religious
beliefs, only God can count how many they are. Still, the American
tragedy turned three hundred million people into a hand put on the heart.
Nobody rushed to accuse the White House, the army, the secret services
that they are only a bunch of losers. Nobody rushed to empty their bank
accounts. Nobody rushed on the streets nearby to gape about. The Americans
volunteered to donate blood and to give a helping hand. After the first
moments of panic, they raised the flag on the smoking ruins, putting
on T-shirts, caps and ties in the colours of the national flag. They placed
flags on buildings and cars as if in every place and on every car a minister
or the president was passing. On every occasion they started singing their
traditional song: "God Bless America!".
