Dr Smith invited Dr Farrokh onto his channel to introduce his new book entitled "Whatever Happened to Christianity"? This piece of literature is a must read for any Muslim or Christian interested in the Qur'anic accusation in Surah 1:7 that Christians have "Gone Astray" from God. In this book Dr Farrokh confronts this notion that Christians have gone astray by asking simply where Muslims believe we have gone astray? After dealing with a number of tertiary areas suggested by Muslims, Dr Farrokh then delves into the 4 primary doctrinal areas which he has found referenced by Muslims over and over again concerning where they believe we have gone astray, namely: 1) The fact that we believe in a Personal God 2) Our belief in the divinity of Jesus 3) Our support for the Trinity 4) The belief that salvation can only come by faith Dr Farrokh, echoing his book, explains in this interview how each of these suppositions by Muslims are not only in error, but are problematic for Muslims themselves, as they aren't aware of just how intrinsic each of these doctrines are supported by the earlier scriptures themselves, suggesting that it is the later Qur'an and not the Bible which has gone astray, confusing these four doctrines somewhere in the 7th - 8th centuries, when the Qur'an was being initially compiled. If you haven't bought this book, do so, as it should be on the shelves of anyone who is working with and engaging Muslims face-to-face. It's only around 150 pages, so you can read it within one sitting (try between breakfast and lunch).

Today, June 26, 2022, Hatun Tash was at Speaker's Corner as she normally is on any given Sunday. But today, something happened which gets me angry. She was wearing her customary Charlie Hebdo T-shirt, with a cartoon on the front and the back, and was holding up a Qur'an with holes punched through it with the outline of Mickey Mouse, not something I would do, nor would I recommend you do either. But for Hatun, this was just another Sunday afternoon. But, why was she wearing and carrying these seemingly offensive items for Muslims? For 2 reasons: 1) To remind people of what happened to the editors of Charlie Hebdo magazine, and to remind the Muslims of the 'Holes in the Standard Islamic Narrative coined by Dr Yasir Qadhi two years ago when referring to the many problems with the argument for the Qur'an's preservation, an argument which Hatun is mostly responsible for when she found and bought 26 different Arabic Qur'ans back in 2016 and held them up at Speaker's Corner for the whole world to see. 2) Speaker's Corner is considered by many to be the 'bastion of Freedom of Speech' worldwide, the last place where we can hold up items which are offensive to anyone, includng Muslims. So, Hatun uses and flaunts that freedom to preserve the freedom of Speech which so many of us have fought for and have come to love so much. She does it for us. So, today, while holding up her "holey Qur'an" a Muslim crept up behind her and grabbed it and ran off with it. Others in her team were blocked by other Muslims from running after him. Hatun, finally resolved with the fact that she wasn't going to see her Qur'an again, began to set up her camera equipment to begin her talk, when suddenly the police came, and began to arrest her, dragging her away against her protests, to the delight of the Muslims who began taunting her, and throwing things at her as the Police, holding her arms in a pincer lock, frog-marched her to the waiting police vans, whereupon they whisked her off to her prison cell where she remains even as I write. So, here is my question. They have charged her with "Suspicion of Criminal Damage", but what criminal damage has Hatun done? Watch the video and see if she has damaged anything which belongs to someone else. The Qur'an which was stolen was hers, not theirs. She bought it and has been taking it down to the Speaker's Corner for years. So, she is the victim here. Why then was she arrested, and why were the Muslims who stole her Qur'an (who then paraded it around the Corner after the police had gone), not arrested, or even questioned? An elderly Christian lady was knocked down during the arrest and hurt; so, why were the police not concerned for her safety, or the safety of Hatun's cameramen, who were jostled, pushed and shoved by the Muslims during the arrest? © Pfander Centre for Apologetics - US, 2022 (66,020) Music: "New Beginning" by Rafael Krux, from filmmusic-io ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HLquBNnp3KE
