The Muslim Education Centre of Oxford (Meco) accused Witney-based Christian Open Doors UK of preaching evangelical propaganda, despite that organisation holding an indoor meeting in a Christian Church, and not forcing anyone to attend. Pathetically, Open Doors UK immediately apologised and insisted the prayer meeting had been taken out of context, although it regretted any offence that had been caused. On the contrary, a spokesman for the Christian group said the meetings aim was to reduce fear of Islam. Meco chairman Dr Taj Hargey said he was shocked by their theological self-righteousness. They assume the self-appointed task to pray for Muslims. They also say that each year there are incredible stories about how God answers these prayers, revealing Himself to Muslims around the world, and bringing many to faith in Jesus. He added: Not only was this evangelical activity ill-conceived and insensitive, it was grossly insulting and inflammatory to Oxfords Muslim inhabitants. At Meco our aim is to bring people of all faiths together, not divide them further. Things like this only serve to break people apart. A joint statement from Open Doors UK and St Aldates Church said: Open Doors and St Aldates very much regret that offence has been taken by Meco at an event designed to encourage church-going Christians to engage positively with Muslims. Hundreds of Christians responded to an invitation that had been sent to churches to a series of meetings held in a church aimed at reducing fear of Islam, increasing love for Muslims. Thus we would emphasise that it was not a meeting targeted at Muslims. Before the event we emphasised that we were not denigrating Islam or criticising Muslim beliefs. At the same time we do believe that having discovered Gods love in Jesus and made a choice to become Christians ourselves, everyone has the right to explore religious faiths and make decisions based on their exploration. Incredibly, Dr Hargey said that while Meco had been offended, it would not hold a grudge. Is this what Britain has become? A country where Christians are now browbeaten and criticised for holding prayer meetings in Christian Churches? Where Muslims can demand apologies from Christians simply for practising their religion? Every day, Sharia law draws nearer for Britain. One day, if this immigration invasion is left unchecked, the new Muslim rulers of this country will outlaw other religions, as is the case in Saudi Arabia and many other countries they rule. There is only one party which will halt, and reverse this demographic invasion: the British National Party.

The Muslims complain about every single damned thing under the sun, and push push push push push push push about every single miserable little piddly freakin' thing that comes to their pin-sized craniums. Meanwhile, Christians just give ground every single Goddamned step of the way. "Turn the other cheek" and all that, you know? Ah well, what can you really expect from a "religion" that teaches its victims, er, sorry, "followers" to "forgive" ALL transgressions, to tolerate EVERYTHING, to never stand up for ANYTHING, and that does NOTHING to defend those stupid enough to believe in it? A religion that does nothing to help its followers defend itself is a religion that is intrinsically doomed.
It definitely wasn't always this way. America was founded by Christians with guns.
