Hollywood Actor Unleashed: Our Deadly Double Standard With Islam and Christianity

Leah Marieann Klett : Aug 17, 2015  The Gospel Herald

"This is a unique age. We don't want to be judgmental. Every other age that's come before us has believed exactly the opposite. I mean, T.S. Eliot referred to 'the common pursuit of true judgment.' Yes, that's what it's about. Getting our judgments right, getting them accurate. We have lost our moral compass completely..." -John Rhys-Davies

(Hollywood, CA) - Hollywood actor John Rhys-Davies has accused Western leaders of losing their "moral compass" by failing to cast judgment on Islamic extremism and turning a blind eye to the persecution of Christians in the Middle East and Africa. (Photo via The Gospel Herald)

In a candid podcast interview with Adam Carolla, Rhys-Davies, who is best known for playing Gimli in the Lord of the Rings series, first condemned the "extraordinary silence in the West" amid the rising persecution of Christians at the hands of Islamic extremist groups like ISIS and Boko Haram.

"Basically, Christianity in the Middle East and in Africa is being wiped out - I mean not just ideologically but physically, and people are being enslaved and killed because they are Christians. And your country and my country (Wales) are doing nothing about it," the actor told Carolla, Breitbart first reported.  

"This is a unique age," Rhys-Davies explained. "We don't want to be judgmental. Every other age that's come before us has believed exactly the opposite. I mean, T.S. Eliot referred to 'the common pursuit of true judgment.' Yes, that's what it's about. Getting our judgments right, getting them accurate." 

According to CNN, Rhys-Davis reportedly appeared on Carolla's show - which has been recognized by Guinness World Records as the world's most popular podcast - to promote the DVD release of Return to the Hiding Place, a film about Jews in Holland during World War II.
