According to the Koran, if one is born in a muslim family, one cannot depart from that religion without severe punishment.
(That's what I am told anyways.)

It always amazes me that liberals in America have so much tolerance for Islam when it is an incredibly cruel and misogynistic religion.
The Obamaination has bent over backwards to appease the Muslim world and all it has done is given us even less respect in the Middle East.
The only thing the cultures in the Middle East understand is strength and power. They see anyone or anything weak as something to be despised and taken advantage of .
Obama is quick to apologize for the burning of those Korans in Afghanistan but does not demand that the Afghan President apologize for the murder of American soldiers by Afghan soldiers in response to it.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
