It hit me this morning: We need a constitutional amendment stating that any “religion” that promotes, in it’s “holy” teachings, the overthrow, death, enslavement or other bad things be physically carried out by its members to non-members shall not be protected by the 1st amendment.
It is already part of case law. It is simply not being applied.
The Mormons (Latter Day Saints) were required to give up polygamy, for example.
We need congress critters with a spine, not a constitutional amendment.
It’s clear that Islam isn’t “just” a religion in the normal sense of theology—that is, man’s place in the universe, the nature of his internal spiritual quest, what happens after death, a code of conduct consistent with the above, etc.
Politically, Islam has a lot in common with aggressive Marxism, which serves as a religion for its adherents, but isn’t theological. Communism had no place to hide within the definition of religion, and we were able to unabashedly suppress it in the mid-20th century. Islam hides under the cover of religion, but aggressive Islam is political and seditious.
Words... lawyers.... Why can’t people see the obvious?
