WND reports on what is unfortunately a common story: a Christian girl in Pakistan has been abducted by Muslims who are likely to force her to convert to Islam and marry a Muslim. This happens all too frequently in Egypt and other Muslim countries as well.
Christians in Pakistan fear a 14-year-old girl kidnapped by several men will be forced to convert to Islam and marry a Muslim.Shamim Kausor, of the district of Toba Tek Singh in Punjab province, was abducted from her home Dec. 31 by men who pulled up in a jeep and took her away by gunpoint, according to the Washington, D.C.-based persecution monitor International Christian Concern.
ICC said young Christian girls in Pakistan often are abducted and raped and forced to marry Muslim men but generally have no rights or recourse for the crimes committed against them.
This was the second abduction of Kausor, and several neighbors recognized a man who kidnapped her several months ago.
At that time, Kausor's father, Afzal Masih, employed the help of police to rescue his daughter. He tried to initiate legal proceedings against the man but was strongly dissuaded by Muslim village leaders.
The kidnapper taunted and threatened the girl after the first abduction, ICC reported.
At one point he said, "A beautiful girl like you should not remain Christian. I will make you Muslim and you will bear a Muslim child."
The police are not interested in helping Masih this time, however, ICC said.
In November, 15-year-old Pakistani Christian boy was kidnapped and taken to a strict Islamic religious school where he was beaten to submission and forced to declare he is a Muslim, according to an international aid group.
Another story unlikely to appear in the Arab press.

This sad story shows Islam to be a shallow religion. No offence intended to any peaceful Muslims reading this. But if all it takes to make a girl a Muslim is to circumcise her and force her to recite some prayers, then Islam is only a matter of externals without affecting a person's heart. You can't FORCE someone to believe anything. Sitting in a garage does not automatically turn you into a car. I am sure Allah is not impressed when someone who rejects the Muslim creed is forced to adopt a Muslim lifestyle.
Tragic. Regrettably, this is a story that won't be reported in the Western press, either.
"The police are not interested in helping Masih this time, however, ICC said." What is different about this time?
Clearly then, no-one is safe when the authorities aren't interested in pursuing criminals and stopping crime. It's maddeningly when a story about saving a puppy from a well shaftor the birth of panda bear in a zoo gets more press coverage than a story such as this.
From Pakistan:
One day, my four-year-old son asked me, 'Why are Hindus not good people?' I have been to India so I explained to him that he was wrong. He replied, 'Maybe the Hindus of India are good, but the Hindus elsewhere are not good.' He is taught these things in school; schools here also function like missionaries and have a class on the interpretations of the Qu'ran.

Nice thing to teach 4 year olds eh?

Islam is wrong! Why do Gods creations need to destroy and harm themselves if God created them
God, Jesus Christ, of the Orthodox Christian religion: the true and only religion, died on the cross to pay for all the sins of humanity. We do not need to hurt ourselves.
When men hurt and assault women, who are equal to men, they are doing wrong by saying half of Godès creation isnèt as good as the other half.
Islam is wrong! Christianity of the Orthodox religion has been around longer (than any other religion!)
Do the research for yourself.
I donèt have anything against people who are muslim, because (the true) God teaches love, but if i see people going astray, and worshiping the devil, I have to let them know they are wrong. Any God other than the true God, (The Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit)is not the real God. It is a religion created by corruption.
Why is there so much corruption and hatred in the muslim religion, if it is so just and good and the correct pathway
