Charles Kimball who helped negotiate the safe
release of hostages by Iran after personal talks
with Khoumeni, has written When Religion Becomes Evil, a book
about Christian imperialism and other religious excess.
Franklin Graham, Pat Robertson and other right wing Christian preachers who
link Jesus to war.. and condemn Islam.. do great harm
he implies. When Falwell called Mohammed a terrorist he
endangered missionaries overseas, Kimball stated.
Kimball said Jesus' name is mentioned 93 times
in the Koran, that Christians should not
preach the infallibility of Israel while
F16's are bombing the Arab world.
He said that Franklin Graham is linked
in the Muslim world to Bush since
he gave the prayer at the Bush inauguration.
Kimball is a refreshing, highly educated,
even voice for religious tolerance.
