Congo: Muslims murder three priests for refusing to convert to Islam

Aug 10, 2014 11:17 pm By Robert Spencer

images_Eveques_catholiques_01_119327144The  Qur’an says that “there is no compulsion in religion,” (2:256), but what constitutes “compulsion” is in the eye of the beholder. The institutionalized subjugation of the dhimma, with its regular humiliation and harassment, from which one can be freed for the simple price of converting to Islam, is not considered compulsion. Remember Steve Centanni and Olaf Wiig, the journalists who were kidnapped and forced to convert to Islam — even though their conversions were obviously coerced, their captors made them say that they were converting freely, and the captors probably believed that themselves. After all, the journos could have chosen to be killed instead.

“DRC: Summary execution of the three priests in North Kivu,” translation of “RDC : Exécution sommaire des trois prêtres au Nord-Kivu,” KongoTimes!, August 7, 2014 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

Three Assumptionist fathers who were kidnapped on Friday, Oct. 19, 2012 by the Ugandan rebels of the Allied Democratic Forces (ADF-NALU) operating in the Congolese province of North Kivu, had been “executed there a few weeks ago.”

“Fathers Wasukundi Anselme, Jean-Pierre Edmond Kisughu Ndulani and the three kidnapped Friday, October 19, 2012 by Ugandan rebels of the ADF-NALU, were killed there a few weeks ago,” reported Radio Kivu 1 broadcasting from the city of Goma.

It stated that “they refused to convert to Islam at the demand of the fundamentalist terrorists of ADF-NALU; that’s why they were executed, while Dr. Paluku Mukongoma died two weeks ago following a bout of dysentery….”

    Muslim criminals are making desperate attempts to cling to whatever they can steal
    while hiding behind the slave trade religion of Islam.
    They Know that Islam is about to die throughout all of Africa

    le tonneau vide fait beaucoup de bruit
    Islamic vanity offers only miserable emptiness.

    But verse 2.256 about no compulsion in religion was abrogated by verse 9:5
    which states:

    “But when the forbidden months are past, then fight and slay the Pagans wherever ye find them, and seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem (of war); but if they repent, and establish regular prayers and practise regular charity, then open the way for them: for Allah is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.”

    This failure to clearly identify the 246 abrogated and each abrogating verse deceives so many non Muslims into thinking the Koran has some goodness in it.

    Why, oh why, can’t we obtain a copy of an authentic Koran with the abrogated verses crossed out and the complete abrogating verse following each one. That would mean, for example, that the verse of the sword I quoted above would appear 127 times, but at least a smaller number of non Muslims would be deceived by Muslims.

      Not quite what you wanted, but pretty close.
      http://alturl.com/ibhz5

      You could, of course, start with a PDF copy of the koran and spend a couple of hours using the info on that site to produce your own version, complete with abrogated verses shown as you describe. If you do, please publish it on Amazon; I’d like a copy!

      But how can they claim that the “no compulsion” verse has been abrogated, since it’s not even clear what verses supposedly came to Muhammad, and when?

      The Koran isn’t ordered by chronology, it’s ordered by longer verses to shorter ones. Its message is all over the place, though one might argue that the intolerant, peaceful verses outnumber the tolerant, peaceful ones on the whole.

        sorry, I meant the “intolerant, VIOLENT (or non-peaceful) verses outnumber the tolerant, peaceful ones on the whole.”

      Ahem
      The Quran is based on (cancelled) verses.
      If some verses are abrogated and still left in the Quran then Muslims should realize that the Quran is based on cancelled verses and is therefore not immutable nor infallible but merely a poorly constructed hoax.

    No compulsion was thrown out by Abu Bakr in his Riddya wars. There are other verses scattered about that also abrogate no compulsion, like 8:39 for instance, but the bulk of it is in chapter 9…

    These holy priests died like men. They may have spared their lives by betraying their vocations, but they preferred to show themselves to be saints and real men. God bless them, and may G-d repay those Muslim dogs.
