About Time! Christians In Ohio Fuming Mad Over Jesus Is Muslim Billboards Sponsored By A Group Called Ask A Muslim Controversial billboards in Columbus, Ohio, reading Jesus is Muslim and Mohammed is in the Bible are drawing protests from local Christians who say Muslims are hijacking the name of Jesus. Although we support the Islamic communitys right to free speech, as well as their right to post messages on billboards, we do not support the hijacking of the name of Jesus Christ in their attempt to lure uninformed Christians into their religion, Coach Dave Daubenmire of Pass the Salt Ministries said in a statement Thursday. Daubenmire is hosting a prayer vigil on Saturday alongside the Rev. Rusty Thomas of Operation Save America and Pastor Bill Dunfee of New Beginnings Church in Warsaw. The billboards are sponsored by a group called Ask a Muslim, based in Columbus, which says that it is dedicated to educating people about Islam. We believe that clearing up the many misconceptions about Islam will make this world a better place. A place with less violence and hatred, filled with mutual respect and understanding, the group says. The group argues on its website that Muslims are actually Christians, if Christian is taken to mean someone following the teachings of Christ.
