It isn’t a religion. It is a totalitarian political ideology masquerading as a religion.
The left is so in love with themselves that anyone can claim a belief is religious and they would accept it as a religion. Unfortunately Americans have become complacent with the definition of religion and the disease of Islam is allowed to conceal itself under the guise of religion.
Here we go then. It is an imperialistic totalitarian political ideology. Although that’s too many words for a leftist to understand so I’ll shorten it to...Islam is Imperialism in a turban...just so they will understand it.
