A lawyer for a north Florida school district says a handful of students have been sent home from Alachua County schools this week for wearing shirts that read "Islam is of the Devil."
The shirts are connected to a local church called the Dove World Outreach Center. Church Senior Pastor Terry Jones tells The Gainesville Sun that spreading the church's message is more important than education.
"The next kid might show up with a shirt saying 'Christianity is of the Devil,'" Wittmer told the
Why would the Church put up such a sign?
To expose Islam for what it is. It is a violent and oppressive religion that is trying to mascarade itself as a religion of peace, seeking to deceive our society.
What is the reason or message the Church wants to get out with a sign such as that?
The message of the truth that there is only one way to God, only one way to salvation, and that is through the blood of Jesus. Through the repenting of your sins and being born again. It is time that all Christians unite, stop being passive and selfish and stand up and fight for the truth.

You say that you follow Jesus and yet you claim to be "sick to your stomach" with his words ? Do you see the hypocrisy ?

Unlike Islam Christianity no longer wages "holy wars" but neither do we accept demonic doctrine as a way to God.

Jesus is the only way to a Christian. If you dont agree, you better stop pretending to be a Christian and do yourself and Christianity a favor.

Why is there so much fuss about some T-shirt in Florida when you have Islamists openly railing against Christianity and teaching hate and committing acts of violence based on their hatred for Jews and Christians and others on a daily basis ?

To open a thread to point out something so mundane when there are massive barbaric acts of fanaticism going on around the Middle East and other parts of the world is ludicrous and hypocritical. It is also projects the OP's bias to some extent against Christianity.

He's not talking about his distaste for the bible but christian extremists if you will.
Originally posted by ModernAcademia
Oh but here however I do see YOUR hypocrisy!
You seem to see the 'people' as the religion as opposed to the given holy book.
Islam doesn't wage holy wars, extremists do.

If you still think so then is Blackwater's Erik Prince a good representation of christianity?
Christianity is about crusading?

Ummm...
I think it's you who needs to do christianity a favor and stop condemning people who believe in free thought.

Tell me, what is YOUR opinion on the t-shirt
Not how people are responding to it
But what's your opinion on it and kids wearing it to school?
Originally posted by ModernAcademia
Really... it does?
Even when in my opening post I say fananiticism is a disease of the mind REGARDLESS of which belief it belongs to?
Really?

This is not hate. Get a life and quit spreading crap like this. Just because they believe Islam to be what it is you think they are spreading hate. Whateva!!!
Think about it for a sec, Islam is the most violent religion known today. It is a very barbaric religion that teaches that their members can't go to their heaven unless they die fighting for their religion.
Spreading truth is not hatred, gety the facts straight.
