Once people are joined in a cult, cooperation in many other things becomes possible.

I would tend to agree except in the case of islime. Far from promoting cooperation and advancement, it has done little more than set sub-cults at each others' throats, inhibited progress and destroyed what little has been made, and established "communities" of tyranny and oppression, united only by the fear of nonconformance. And that applies both internally -- within islime itself -- and externally.

Sure, the same could be said about Christianity during the various religious wars that punctuated the Reformation and its aftermath (and still marks the uneasy truce in Northern Ireland). But Christianity survived those upheavals and despite them, propagated its faith around the globe, bringing with it a prosperity and level of civilization unmatched since the Roman Empire.

Islime leaves nothing in its wake but terror, chaos, and death.

As far as Northern Ireland goes, the IRA are communists and always about setting up a “socialist republic” over the entire island. That is why they had zero support in the Republic of Ireland for decades as far as domestic politics (but tacit aid to them for the “cause” of a “united Ireland”); not so much resistance to their “political wing” (Sinn Fein) now that the Republic has become so immoral.
