Dozier's Biblical Objection to Mosque Dropped by CNN
Agape Press reports on Worldwide Christian Center pastor Dr. O'Neal Dozier, and his opposition to the building of a mosque in Northwest Pompano Beach, Florida. Dozier was recently featured on CNN, where he complained that Islam is a "cult", that the mosque was a "potential recruiting location" for terrorists, and that it would be built in an area originally marked for low-income housing. However, Dozier was not pleased with CNN's editing:
...But according to Dr. Dozier, there was much left out of the interview..."I said that Jesus Christ is the only Way," says the pastor. "I quoted the verse there [John 14:6] ... Therefore one cannot be saved outside of Jesus Christ. I said that Islam cannot get one to heaven." And inclusion of that statement, he says, would have explained another unaired statement -- that President Bush and his administration need to stop referring to the "war with terrorists" and, instead, call it what it is: a war with Islamic fascism. So, stating that a mosque should not be allowed because of John 14:6 would have made Dozier look less "like an intolerant and fearful American". Is this not a remarkable glimpse into the dominionist mindset?
Dozier was in the news a few months ago, when he announced that God had told him that Charlie Crist would become the next governor of Florida. However, Dozier's enthusiasm for anti-Muslim comics led to Crist kicking him off his campaign committee in September.
