In other words, most sects within Islam teach that it is acceptable or even desirable to lie in the service of jihad.Tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00346761712248157930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5596708332568087278.post-11529014942715916342017-09-28T21:55:33.172-04:002017-09-28T21:55:33.172-04:00Below is a link to an interesting article and good...Below is a link to an interesting article and good analysis concerning the problem with Islam. This writer also confirms what I think was already mentioned in at least one of the blogs here, namely, that by Muslim standards, ISIS is following Islamic teaching exactly by trying to force everyone into Islam including killing those who refuse. It is amazing that in the American public sphere Muslims will deny or ignore that aspect of their religious teaching which really puts them at odds with purists who are following Allah's will to convert by force if necessary. You don't make friends by advocating that and by supporting that, openly or clandestinely, so that Islam is destined to become a failure. It also illustrates the tremendous difficulties humanity has with recognizing what is truthful even if it is just to the extend of assigning higher probabilities of correctness. And those probabilities certainly are not on the side of Islam.<br /><br />http://www.crisismagazine.com/2017/why-i-believe-in-islam <br />Qmannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5596708332568087278.post-10822080441913320032017-09-27T14:15:05.970-04:002017-09-27T14:15:05.970-04:00Funny, just turned on the news this morning and th...Funny, just turned on the news this morning and there was the item that finally Women in Saudi Arabia will now be allowed to drive and get their drivers licenses. They will still need a man's permission to so though. It' amazing how confused the human mind and intellect can be by the time one reaches adulthood, but a Muslim cleric promptly stated that women only have a brain one quarter the size of a man. The tragic part of this inability or unwillingness to think logically AND therefore compassionately is of course that it creates interior personal, and external public, war, strife, and abuse, especially when present in a person in a seat of power. It is especially tragic if entire populations and cultures allow themselves get caught up in this veil of unreasonableness and inability to think.<br />Qmannoreply@blogger.com
