Even the Paris Police are people from another religion, sometimes wearing masks to avoid later attacks by people of another religion who claim their religion is being defamed by people from another religion wearing masks.
It’s not the masks; it’s not the people; it’s not a spiritual religion. It’s a contradictory ideology based in the Quran and Sunnah over which the adherents have warred with unbelievers and themselves since conception. It has never produced an era of both peace and freedom, an era of which it is incapable without further modification by a redeeming figure from Allah who nullifies supremacy and all ideology that allows oppression and slavery of infidels. Christianity had such a figure.
If a literal interpretation of a text brings violence then the text was either written for that purpose or was poorly written and causes confusion. Nothing short of either a negation or rewriting the text will nullify its violent effects.
The ideology of Islam, as can be found in a literal reading of the Quran and Sunnah, is too unstable and divisive – having no equivalence to the Golden Rule – to provide a stable foundation for intellectual and economic progress.
The Ideology of Islam makes the adherent both supreme over the infidel and a slave to Allah; a contradictory position in which innovation and industry shrivel as the adherent bends the minutiae of his life to Allah while demanding, without equivalent accomplishments, supreme respect from infidels.
In a free society, Islamic Ideology is self-defaming. It only has respect where there is ignorance of the doctrines.
