Christians And Muslims Condemn Ramsey Clark, Demand Apology By Michael L. Betsch CNSNews.com Staff Writer January 13, 2003

(CNSNews.com) - The comments of former U.S. Attorney General Ramsey Clark, comparing Jesus Christ to a modern-day terrorist, incurred the wrath of both Christians and Muslims Friday.

Headlining a media event Wednesday for the anti-war protest group, International A.N.S.W.E.R. (Act Now to Stop the War and End Racism), Clark referred to Christ in front of more than 20 international reporters and camera crews. CNSNews.com was the only news service to report on the former attorney general's comments.

"The Christian Church overwhelmingly -- there are exceptions - who choose to call Muhammad a terrorist -- they could call Jesus a terrorist too," said Clark. "I mean, he was pretty tough on money lenders a time or two."

Rev. Lou Sheldon, chairman of the Traditional Values Coalition, scolded Clark for his comments and demanded an apology on behalf of Christians and Muslims. Full: http://tinyurl.com/4fsm --- Sent from UnionMail Service [http://mail.union.org.za]
