sharia law in America!


A couple of weeks-ago I ran across a great video of David Wood teaching about the dangers of Islam’s Sharia Law. I found it at a G+ Community called Anti-Islam. If you are not concerned about the Islamophobe label, then check it out.

Here’s Wikipedia on David Wood:

David Wood (Christian apologist)

David Wood (born April 7, 1976)[1] is an American evangelical missionary and a Christian apologist.[2][3][4] He is currently head of the Acts 17 Apologetics Ministry.[5] He is a member of the Society of Christian Philosophers and the Evangelical Philosophical Society.[2]

Early life and education

Wood has stated that he was an atheist[1] in his youth, during which he had run-ins with the law by breaking into homes and later going as far as attempting to take his father's life at the age of 18, all due to the belief he was above societal rules that subsequently conditioned a lack of empathy within Wood. [6][7][8] After the attempt on his father's life Wood was sentenced to ten years in prison for malicious wounding. While in prison, he was confronted with a fellow prisoner named Randy[8] who was a devout Christian. Wood often challenged Randy's Christian beliefs, initially claiming that Randy was only a Christian because he was born into a primarily Christian society, specifically the United States.[7] Wood began to read the Bible in order to respond to Randy's rebuttals but it eventually led Wood to convert to Christianity in 1996 himself, and to eventually reconcile with his father.[8]

After five years between jail and prison,[7] he was released in 2000 and went to college earning a degree in philosophy.[9][10][11] While in college, he was challenged to convert to Islam by his roommate, Nabeel Qureshi, a Muslim, and went about investigating the life of Mohammed using the earliest sources including Ibn Ishaq's epic the "Life of Muhammad" (the earliest biography of Muhammad); the hadith collections of Sahih al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim (considered by Sunni Muslims to be the two most reliable or sahih collections of Muhammad's statements, actions, and example); and the History of the Prophets and Kings by Al-Tabari (one of Islam's greatest historians).[9] Concluding that the Quran and Mohammed's example did not simply describe violence in the past (as in the Christian Bible per his assertion), but rather commanded ongoing violence, he took up the mantle as a Christian apologist.[9] His roommate Nabeel, eventually went on to become a Christian apologist as well.[1] Wood would later earn a Ph.D. in the philosophy of religion at Fordham University.[2]

Christian apologetics

Wood has participated in numerous public debates with Muslims and atheists,[12][13][14] usually in a public hall or in front of a university audience[15][16][17][18] including debates with Sunni Muslim apologist Shabir Ally.[2] Wood was invited on several ABN shows, in inter-religious discussions against atheism and Islam, where among other things he regularly appears on the Aramaic Broadcasting Network.[19] He has produced YouTube videos presenting his views on religion.[20]

Wood opposed the Park51 Islamic Center, arguing that it was not meant to honor the victims' families, but instead was a symbol of Islamic victory and named READ THE REST
