Ergun Caner Awards

I've previously discussed Ergun Caner's books (link to discussion). What I did not note is that some claim distinction, according to Ergun Caner's website (link to website).
  1. "Unveiling Islam nominated for the Gold Medallion Award. In Fall 2003, The Evangelical Christian Publishers Association awarded the Gold Medallion to Unveiling Islam in the Missions and Evangelism category" (verified - received in 2003).

  2. "VOICES BEHIND THE VEIL nominated as a finalist for ForeWard [sic] Magazine’s Book of the Year Voices Behind the Veil was selected as a finalist for ForeWard [sic] Magazine’s Book of the Year in the Religion Category for 2004!!!" (not found in list for 2004)(found in the list for 2003)

  3. "MORE THAN A PROPHET nominated for Outreach Book Awards OUTREACH MAGAZINE named More Than a Prophet as a finalist for the Best Outreach Resource of 2003!" (I could not find any definitive list of 2003 finalists, to either confirm or deny this claim.)
This is probably not that helpful, but I've included it simply for the sake of being thorough.

    Latest telling quote from Ergun Caner posted on FBC Jax Watchdog:

    Ergun Caner at the 2009 "Xtreme Winter Festival" in Gatlinburg, Tennessee.


    "Let me be very clear. They are not undocumented aliens. They are illegal criminals. I came into this country legally. I stood in the line. And so I say to all the immigrants who come in - I get a lot of immigrant who are, who are uh, students in the seminary, I go "God bless you." I just want to tell you three things: pay ya taxes, learn English, and shut up and quit whining - because - everytime you come here - everytime you come to this country and you say [mocking a foreign accent] "Um, we like America we want to come to this country, let us speak our language" - you are ruining it for the rest of us!

    I had to stay out of school for one year, to learn English. I got held back a year, because my English was so poor. I could learn it, and I'm an adult, anybody can learn it."

    The guy just can't help himself. He is a serial liar.

Comment Guidelines:

1. Thanks for posting a comment. Without you, this blog would not be interactive.

2. Please be polite. That doesn't mean you have to use kid gloves, but please try not to flame others, even if they are heretics, infidels, or worse.

3. If you insult me, I'm more likely to delete your comment than if you butter me up. After all, I'm human. I prefer praise to insults. If you prefer insults, there's something wrong with you.

4. Please be concise. The comment box is not your blog. Your blog is your blog. If you have a really long comment, post it on your blog and post a short summary of it here.

5. Please don't just spam. It's one thing to be concise, it's another thing to simply use the comment box to advertise.

6. Please note, by commenting here, you are relinquishing your (C) in your comments to me.

7. Remember that you will give an account on judgment day for your words, including those typed in comment boxes. Try to write so you will not be ashamed if it is read back before the entire world.

8. Stay on topic. If your comment has nothing to do with the post, email it to me (my email can be obtained through my blogger profile), or simply don't post it.

9. Don't post as "Anonymous." If you are going to post anonymously, at least use some kind of recognizable "handle," so we can tell you apart from all the other anonymous folks. (This is moot at the moment, since recent abuse has forced me to turn off "anonymous" commenting.)

10. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you; and abstain from doing to others what you would not wish upon yourself.
