ROBERT SPENCER: A Constant Voice of Opposition to Fundamentalist Muslims!

Thank the Lord for those who are willing to stand in the gap!
Academics don’t write books with titles like The Truth About Muhammad: Founder of the World’s Most Intolerant Religion and The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam (And the Crusades) without expecting some harsh criticism, and Robert Spencer has heard it all. [Front Page]
In spite of global opposition to his message author Spencer continues to grow in popularity; a fact evidently impossible without the Internet.
The percentage of internet sales for my books are significantly higher than most," he says, "many bookstores don’t sell them and people are afraid to talk about it, but there’s this whole underground on the internet that I would liken to that in the Soviet Union. Whenever there’s a straightjacket [sic] that stifles freedom of thought, people are going to react. The internet has shifted public opinion because it’s given the opportunity for the truth to be known. [Brussels Journal]
Spencer's journey to truth has both a sour and sweet path ...
... reading the Koran for the first time was certainly an eye-opener. “I was surprised to see that there was indeed religiously sanctioned violence in it, as well as some others things which I found disturbing. But it was all intriguing, because I was entranced by the shorter, poetic chapters. I thought it very striking that this beauty could co-exist with clear mandates for warfare and violence against unbelievers.”
