Ofcourse many modern day Christians don't really obey/practice the old testament anymore. I was reading an article on adultery in Christianity and the author made a telling statement:

"The different Christian views are whether you are a legalist like the Pharisees and look to the letter of the law, or do you look to the example of Christ of love over legalism."

implying - such laws are a part of Christianity, except that they are not followed anymore.

Crimes committed by Western governments cannot be used as an excuse for crimes committed by Islamist governments. Applying the death penalty for Muslims who convert to Christianity is a crime. We should condemn all crimes.
The Iraq war was illegal and not mandated by the UN. Many European countries opposed it.

Well done Matt Browne.  I totally agree.  Have you read Bernard Shaw's "The Crisis of Islam"? 

Well done what? You know very well you do what the woman did in US and you have a law suit over your head! Matt has lost his marbles by living in  Germany ( Brown shirt effect)
Shaw in this discussion...Here is his the height of his cynicism!
"Americans adore me and will go on adoring me until I say something nice about them."
His talking about Crises of Islam is as illogical as it gets! If the Muzlim people becoming fat, dumb and happy, it would Muzlims fault not the Islam's...
If you default by not following the building code and then get injured when it collapses during a quack...Is it your fault or the code's fault?

See the logic?

The Muzlims are in crises for defaulting on their Islam and got run over by the western imperialism and I guess deservedly so ...It is an on going phenomena try what you may the western imperial power is dying and it is its last throws...Look at Cameron or Obama's last visit to China and take lessons...nothing last for ever! Obama was on the Asian tour to sell American commercial and military stuff at any terms and Hu Jintao was in Paris to spread around his largess at his terms! It would be totally st.upid for the west going broke beating the dead people! May be that is what is in the cards! oh well keep it up no one listens to the people in debt!

And then saw guess who was talking about that lost soul Mr. GB!

GLENN: Here is George Bernard Shaw, probably the most famous Fabian socialist, what we would call a progressive here in America.

SHAW: You must all know half a dozen people at least who are no use in this world, who are more trouble than they are worth. Just put them there and say Sir, or Madam, now will you be kind enough to justify your existence? If you can't justify your existence, if you're not pulling your weight, and since you won't, if you're not producing as much as you consume or perhaps a little more, then, clearly, we cannot use the organizations of our society for the purpose of keeping you alive, because your life does not benefit us and it can't be of very much use to yourself.
He was one the very sick intellectuals that west is littered with I am sorry I can name a dozen if you like...

I don't think he was just antIslam; he was just anti religion all around didn't matter true or otherwise...You know what, in old times Islam was mostly among the non Caucasians so imperialist found it lot convenient to kick the brown fellas around when they were  down! I think the game is changing!
