Musings of a Recovering Lutheran: Update on Asia Bibi
I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, 

Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?

Then said I, Here am I; send me.

Update on Asia Bibi



The Masihi Foundation has requested that April 20 be dedicated to Asia Bibi.

One paragraph in the article was interesting:

One of the fears related to the case of Asia Bibi is that the woman could be killed in prison or once the Supreme Court has proceeded to consider her appeal. From 1986 to 2010 there were 43 cases of "extra-judicial" killings of people accused of blasphemy. 19 concerned Christians, 17 Muslims, two Hindus and 5 Ahmadis.


In other words, it is not just Christians who suffer from Pakistan's blasphemy laws. Then why in Heaven's name does the secular media insist that any criticism of Islam is somehow "Islamophobic"? Does multiculturalism triumph over human decency and compassion?

For those who do not know who she is, here is the story about Asia Bibi's unjust imprisonment and death sentence for "blasphemy" against the Prophet Muhammad.

Please continue to pray for Asia Bibi and her family.
