So much honor killing, so little time

There are some stories we come across that we simply cannot ignore. This is one of those. A 17-year old girl, Rifqa Bary, converted from being a Muslim to being a Christian earlier this year and her devout Muslim father threatened her life. She ran away to Florida, but because she is not a naturalized citizen the courts will likely send her home to Ohio where her parents reside. She fears for her life. Many Muslim fathers and male relatives (even here in the West) have killed their own daughter/sister/cousin because of various "dishonors" she has supposedly brought to their family.

Please watch this brief video where in her own words, Rifqa explains her plight.



What a mess! Please be praying for this brave soul. For those of you who don't believe that values matter, and that all societies and countries and religions are the same, let this story be a wake up call.
