When Jordan’s King Abdullah spoke at the recent National Prayer Breakfast, many Christians could only scratch their heads and ask why. But Christian activist Randall Terry believes he can explain why the podium was given over to a Muslim. “I think that the U.S. State Department doesn’t have a clue as to the real threat that Islamic ideology poses to America,” says Terry. And there may be another factor, he says. “I think that some of the president’s advisors have never really studied historic Islam, the Quran, or the life of Muhammad — and they’re repeating the new mantra that Islam is a religion of peace.” Terry says the president, who has been criticized for embracing Islam, was being gracious to the millions of Muslims who would never threaten or kill anyone over a cartoon.
