F6, Franklin Graham, seems to forget Jesus is a revered prophet of Islam. His beseeching Muslims to bring him
into their hearts appears to me to be grossly ignorant, as the Jesus character is already present in his chair there.

"While the Pentagon was pondering what to do about Graham, he appeared [ http://mediamatters.org/mmtv/201004220005 ] on the conservative cable network on Thursday morning. When "Fox and Friends" host Gretchen Carlson asked if Graham still believes Islam is "evil," he did not take the mending route. Instead, he gave no direct response but said,

I love Muslim people. . . . I want Muslims everywhere to know . . . that Christ can come into their heart and change them. . . . They don't have to die in a car bomb . . . to be accepted by God. . . .They can be free through faith in Jesus Christ and Christ alone.

With a tone of surprise -- or was it indignation? -- in her voice, Carlson noted that the Pentagon was considering excommunicating Graham from the prayer event. She asked Graham if this signaled "an assault against Christianity, against prayer."

Go back to the scenario at the top of this column. Would Carlson pose a similar question to an imam or rabbi who had denigrated Christianity as "evil"? Is the Pope Jewish? ("You called Christianity 'evil,' and now they don't want you to speak at a Pentagon prayer service. Is this an attack on prayer?")"
