DAVID WOOD: "MUSLIMS & MORALITY"

MP3 Available Here

DAVID WOOD, an Evangelical Christian apologist specializing in refuting the claims of ISLAM & defending the Christian Scriptures in theological debate with Muslim apologists, will address the theme: "MUSLIMS & MORALITY."

Muslims often have an outward appearance of being even more God-fearing, reverent, dedicated, disciplined and morally pure than the most devout Evangelicals. They have a strict code of ethics regarding abstinence from alcohol and a prohibition of sexual imagery in art, music and entertainment. They go to great lengths to dress modestly, and this is especially true of Muslim women. They are a people devoted to prayer and fasting, and are encouraged by their clerics to lead healthy, active lives with the qualities of kindness, chastity, honesty, mercy, courage, patience and politeness. Muslims profess to have the perfect and complete code for the guidance of individuals and communities alike.

Having said that, however, our guest today, David Wood, will reveal shocking and disturbing information, documented by sources considered to be sacred, irrefutable and impeccable by most Fundamentalist Muslims, regarding the Islamic advocacy of such atrocities as consummated marriages with prepubescent girls (Mohamed married a six-year-old girl and consummated the marriage when she was nine, and his example is still followed today), the Iatola Komani of Iran's grotesque declaration of sexual gratification that can be derived from infants, the validation of raping women (even in the presence of their husbands) who are slaves and captives during times of war, the unquestioned permission of Muslim husbands to punish their wives through physical brutality, the execution of Muslim women who are innocent victims of rape if they are incapable of producing proof of their innocence deemed to be adequate by authorities, and other horrific facts rarely exposed in the media.

David will also demonstrate the clear, stark contrast between the carnal and lustful motives of devout Muslim men to enter an afterlife with 70+ virgins awaiting to gratify them sexually for eternity, and the 180-degree opposite motive of faithful Christians to worship Christ in a sexless Heaven for eternity.

David Wood is a Teaching Fellow in Philosophy at Fordham University. A former atheist, he converted to Christianity after investigating the historical evidence for the Resurrection of Jesus. He is a member of the Society of Christian Philosophers and has written a number of articles on Islam. He runs the blog Answering Muslims.com.

David and Muslim apologist Bassam Zawadi are currently working on a book together contrasting Islam with Christianity. You can listen to a two-day, on-air, theological exchange between David and Bassam by clicking here and here.
