Islam
Baptists speak out in disagreement of Jerry Falwell's Oct. 6th statement about Mohammed being a terroist.
"There is no doubt when Jerry Falwell speaks, many people listen. Sadly, when he speaks, many assume he speaks for all Baptists. He does not," said Hatfield, pastor of First Baptist Church in Lewisville. "Though we do not believe in the tenets of Islam, many of us do not conclude the founder of Islam to be a terrorist. The use of the term is unfair, at best."
