Author and Bible teacher Hal Lindsey appeared Tuesday night on Fox News Channel’s Hannity and Colmes and was startlingly frank about his views of the Muslim religion. He told how he had been removed from TBN, a Christian network for saying that the radical Muslims were practicing the true Muslim religion as layed out in the Koran. An excerpt:

“After 9-11, I really studied Islam, studied the Quran, studied what they’re teaching and especially why there was a difference between the moderate Muslims and those who were radical,”….Co-host Alan Colmes asked Lindsey straight out: “Islam is a radical religion in your view?” “It is,” Lindsey responded. “It’s kind of like most Christians don’t read the Bible very much. I believe most Muslims don’t read the Quran very much. That’s why most Muslims are not radical, but when someone begins to really study the Quran and they begin to read the 109 verses that call for violence and war, they become very, very different. They become radical, they feel that they need to convert people by force.”
