    She said that she could be both Muslim and Christian in the way that she was both 100% African American and 100% woman at the same time.

    Faulty analogy.

    She can claim both her gender and her race. They are two separate characterisitics that she possesses.

    She cannot serve two masters.........at least that's what I've read in the bible. And I'll take God at His Word on that. :thumbs:

    A proverb and an exhortation for our 'christoislamic hybrid' come to mind:
    • The proverb: "The only thing in the 'middle of the road' are yellow lines and dead armadillos."
    • The exhortation: Pee or get off the pot. Pick the Truth (Way and Life as well) or error. Choose one. You choose both? That's error.

    Well! That's one of the silliest things I've ever read and why in the world one of them didn't kick her out is silly too! Doesn't someone in either place know what they believe!?!

    I can't say what I think. Which probably means I shouldn't even think it.

    Islam and Christianity are mutually exclusive and the horse pile the one prof shoveled about some regarding Christ divinity as his embodiment of God's love isn't even Christianity.

    A Muslim being a Christian is equivalent to a woman being a "Reverend" or bishop. One can force the matter and make people believe it is so but the word of God will get in the way of such claims. I pray that one day someone is able to witness to her about the gospel of Jesus Christ and that He gives her up to a sound mind, rather than the emotional experiences the adversary is whispering in her ear about.

    What it was about, according to the "reverend" (Psalm 111:9)...

    "It wasn't about intellect. All I know is the calling of my heart to Islam was very much something about my identity and who I am supposed to be." - Rev. Ann Holmes Redding​

    What profit is there in heeding the calling of one's heart?

    "The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?" - Jeremiah 17:9

    Better it be that she listen to the calling of God and that calling is not in Mohammed...
    "I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus." - Philippians 3:14

    You got it all wrong, people!

    We're supposed to follow what feels good to us. because, after
    all, what feels good to US is the ultimate factor in choosing what
    is true.

    See.... God is a giant galactic teddy bear and nothing makes
    him/her mad. He/She is super-inclusive and doesn't mind anything
    that we do because He/She loves us and wants to give us all
    big giant hugs.

    So what we want to mix spiritual dirt and ice cream; who are YOU
    to judge?


    Of course, you realize I'm being sarcastic.

    Well I didn't read the link so I won't comment on this particular case, but I suspect it is at least possible for someone to be a Christian and Muslim at the same time. However, they probably wouldn't claim both although I may be surprised.

    There might even be examples of this of people that accepted Christ at a younger age, but were then later deceived by the teachings of Islam later in life.

    Again I doubt that person would claim to be a Christian while holding to Islamic teachings, but in that case they could be a Christian claiming and following Islamic teachings.

    It's like grapenuts. It's neither grape nor nuts. And she's neither christian nor muslim as far as I'm concerned.

    For sure, you can't be both. I have right in front of me an Islamic pamphlet given to me by a fellow worker that is a mulsim. It's says in plane English: "Muslims do not believe in the Christian theory know as substitutionary atonement."

    End of case, don't you think?

    She is a pioneering member of a new faith called the last days one world church of Antichrist. Everyone is welcome, except for these fundies who won't welcome everyone.

    Well I guess she might fit into the scenario that I gave. Maybe she was saved via Scriptures and then was deceived by the Isalmic teachings and is trying to have it both ways.

    Or maybe she grew up Muslim and was introduced to the Truth, but hasn't fully weeded out the error yet.

    Not sure :).
