Right. Same here.
Churchill nailed it.
One of the worst features of Islam it that it denies the existence of free will. So why strive for anything, when it’s all pre-ordained by Allah?
Also denies Aristotalian dialectic.
So Islam cannot evolve, as Christianity has. And their madrassas make damned sure of it.
Then there’s the inbreeding that it fosters.....
Islam had no need of a "rebirth" because they hadn't had the Catholic Church suppressing science and learning for a thousand years. Catholic theocracy was the cause of "the Dark Ages" and Islam (and China) was where science went to survive Catholicism.
Relatively speaking, yes. In totality, no. In totality the greater problem is Arabian Islam. because Arabian Islam also still embraces the more barbaric traditions of the North African and Southwest Asian desert-dwelling nomads. The more radical Muhammadan sects all either originated in Arabia or were inspired by an Arabian sect.
Like i said: decry both.
At least we can do something about the one ... not that we will....
When Christ returns it is gonna be a bad day to be either a pagan modernist or a Muslim.
The Moros in the Philippines are pretty nasty, and they aren't Arabs. Nor are the Persians. Can't say much in favor of the Turks, either.
