The excerpt is from "The Mind of Jihad" by Laurent Murawiec.

This book lays out in pristine detail and with full academic rigor the deadly origins of Islamic Jihad. We must expose this death cult to the light of reason and true moral faith. As Jesus says, those who have an ear let them listen to this and you will fully understand the diabolical nature of the philosophy which undergirds Islamic terrorism and realize how urgent it is we utterly destroy this 7th century mindset of barbarism and brutality!

The end of the excerpt is:

It has set its priorities – death, blood, killing. They are the highest modes of worship – the jihad that powers them is the highest form of worship. They drag along all the other aspects of society. They beg to be extended to other societies. Their demands are absolute because the God from whence they proceed is absolute in its demands. Their diktat thus spreads from the core conception outwards.

Inexorably, the this-worldly “life” is depreciated. The otherworldly “death” is exalted. The ceaseless mantra of the worthlessness of life and the infinite felicity of the afterlife establishes a scale of values.

The ratio set between life and afterlife is the determinant of the scale of values. Any religion must strike a durable balance between the call of the afterlife and the reality of life on earth. Overvaluing the this-worldly undermines faith and its normative feedback. Conversely, undervaluing this world, and overvaluing the afterworld, create a massive disequilibrium: It tilts this life toward the afterlife, and that in passing the gate between them should occur the most important act in this life – its termination.

We shall prevail because Good is stronger than Evil. These Jihadists follow Satan and have no truth or light in them. Trust in Christ and no force can stand against you!

Try explaining the truth about Islam to anyone who can’t imagine such a threat has ever existed. History is a dead subject among the TVised american public. Better to make a good movie than waste hot air.
