Religious Freedom

I am not going to get into a theological debate with Prof. Lee Camp. I am going to take offence with his attitude of surrendering what so many American veterans sacrificed so much to earn and protect. We are blessed to have been born in the United States. Our founding fathers were possibly the most brilliant assembly of men ever gathered in pursuit of a common cause. They recognized that all men "are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights". Not only did these men recognize these rights, they knew any form of government could (and probably would) choose to ignore the rights of the people for the increase of power and control. The surviving heroes of the American revolution took great pains to ensure that these rights were enumerated on official, public documents (The Bill of Rights) and many personal published papers. The freedom of religion is included in the same Amendment which recognizes freedom of speech and protects the rights of any religious believer to practice their particular beliefs without interference from the government. The Second Amendment provides the citizens with the ablilty to protect themselves and, more importantly, the other amendments from government abuse.
How many thousands of Americans have died to protect these rights? How many millions have died in other countries due to a lack of these rights? For example, conversion to Christianity, Buddism, Judaism in Muslim countries is punishable by death. In the People's Republic of China, Christianity is punishable by death. America is, believe it or not, the most tolerant and benelovent country on earth. No outside force in history has been able to defeat our nation and infringe on our rights or the practicing thereof. This Professor Lee Camp wants us to "give up" some of our beliefs, our rights, for peace. "The man who is willing to exchange Liberty for security, deserves neither Liberty nor security." Benjamin Franklin.
If I recall correctly, Jesus said, "I came not to send peace, but a sword..."Matt. 10:34 And we are told in Luke 22:36 "let he who hath no sword, sell his garment and buy one." Also, the Islamic clerics do not back down from the prophet's words: "let there be no religion, but Islam."
When Franco was asked which of his four columns marching on Madrid would reach the Spanish capital first, his response was: "...the Fifth column..." meaning the spies, sabotuers, and traitors already in Madrid. It would appear that Professor Lee Camp is in the fifth column in the United States. Make no mistake, Islam has never stopped its quest to convert the world, only now it has the technology and the willing victims to be able to succeed. "All that is required for evil to succeed is for good men to do nothing."
