One of Sir Winston Churchill’s observations on Islam, this from 1898:
.
“That religion, which above all others was founded and propagated by the sword—the tenets and principles of which are instinct with incentives to slaughter and which in three continents has produced fighting breeds of men—stimulates a wild and merciless fanaticism.

“The love of plunder, always a characteristic of hill tribes, is fostered by the spectacle of opulence and luxury which, to their eyes, the cities and plains of the south display.

“A code of honour not less punctilious than that of old Spain is supported by vendettas as implacable as those of Corsica.

“Indeed it is evident that Christianity, however degraded and distorted by cruelty and intolerance, must always exert a modifying influence on men’s passions, and protect them from the more violent forms of fanatical fever, as we are protected from smallpox by vaccinations.

“But the Mohammaden religion increases, instead of lessening, the fury of intolerance. It was originally propagated by the sword, and ever since its votaries have been subject, above all the peoples of all other creeds, to this form of madness.”

Islam is based on complete enslaving of females...Mormons are right there too..

preach to men that they can beat up women, rape women, take little girls as "brides" and rape them.....for a man, what's not to love....and there in is the power of these religions....santifying enslaving females....

I will never understand how thinking women would ever be part of this...
