If one carefully studies the Koran, Hadith and Sharia Law, it is obvious that an awful lot of Muslims want to see the whole world become as "enlightened" as Saudi Arabia or Afghanistan under the Taliban. These fanatics are dangerous nutcases and ignorant savages who think that going back to the barbaric society and thinking of a 7th Century world is progress and will create a Islamic Utopia here on earth! No free will. Only a bunch of power-hungry, hypocritical Imams and Caliphs getting rich and fat off the sweat of the low-lifes by telling them what they can and cannot do according to their interpretation!
Our American founding fathers were correct in making sure that no single state religion held sway over any other. Separation of church and state is a good thing if not carried to the extreme. Religious interpretation is far more fallible than what goes on in a US courtroom, IMHO.
The more I learn, the more I am realizing that extreme Islam appears to be a religion that is enforced through fear, violence and enslavement. There is very little love, forgiveness and above all little choice if one wants to live and think freely. Sounds like totalitarianism to me.
