...intellectuals in Western Europe and the United States formulate an ideology which says that their countries should be open without discrimination to all people of all political persuasions. The entire article is based on a false premise. The first sentence above is the culprit.
Islam is NOT a political persuasion.
At worst it is a hate cult. At best it is a religion.
Either way, no rational human would want it in their midst....given its adherents predilection for misogyny and violence against anyone who is different.
Lawrence Auster tries real hard but he has missed the point.

I'm not quite sure I follow your point, sir. There are literally billions of reasonably rational adults in the West who are seemingly rushing to embrace islam. But not really. What they are actually doing is engaging in a political act - rejection of their own culture based on ignorance and self loathing. So for the Godless West, I would hold this to be political.
For the muslims, who are my sworn enemies but who I in some ways respect more than the cowards and ignoramuses that comprise the Western masses, for them I agree, it is religious.

it’a a metaphor — substituting the political Naziism for the religion of Islam.

Islam is NOT a political persuasion. Islam is an invasion NOT a religion.
I do not fear Islam, I despise it ! I despise its false prophet, its adherents and all that it represents.

Actually it is all three of these. Islam encompasses everything in a Muslim's life.

Spot on agreement.
