  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Torben now imprisoned for almost a Year in the US without charges.

He overstayed his visa. Missionaries aren't exempt from immigration law.

Overstaying your visa means imprisoment for more than a year in usa?

I'm amazed that Christians on a Christian Forum would / could show such a lack of empathy and down play another Christian and his family's suffering and persecution.

According to CBN today, Torben and his family are out of Denmark into another Country.
Guessing with CBN following the story so close, they might be helping as well.
His Grace and Peace to Torben and his family

This is a question to both of you; do you feel that it's acceptable for missionaries to violate immigration laws when they minister in foreign countries?

He violated immigration law by overstaying his visa.

NO, You Are Wrong.

His Visa Waiver Was Cancelled by Homeland Security with out informing him because of False Reports from his FALSE ACCUSERS In Denmark.

He entered the US under the Visa Waiver Program which allows someone to stay in the country for 90 days. His visa expired in 2019.

So, I am confused. Is Mr. Torben still detained in the U.S. or is now free somewhere in some other country?

Anyone still puzzled about the matters behind his persecution - Details are explained here...

Evil People and Evil Spirits hate True Christians.

That's the only answer I can think of.
