"Islam may be best understood as a worldwide cult. It enforces honesty and loyalty and fairness among believers, but entails no obligation to respect the ethical canons of “unbelievers,” which include the Golden Rule and the Decalogue."

[abclily]

Yes, a Satanic cult. Muslims are Satan’s soldiers.

The Koran and all the recorded dispensations of “Wisdom” by the false prophet Mohammed Ali (Hadith) are a major re-write of all the religious texts up to that time, casting Mohammed in the role of Jesus of the New Testament, and dismissing just about the entire Old Testament from about the time of Abraham, in which Ishmael is pictured as the favored son, with Isaac and his mother Sarah being the ones cast out into the wilderness. Then, the next step was to FORBID that the “scholars” of Islam ever study or even refer to the other religious texts (including that of the Zoroastrians), but to include the worship of Ba’al and Moloch, upon which Allah is modeled, a god of vengeance and totally lacking in grace or mercy.

Islam is not, strictly speaking an ethical religion, but only a cover for a harsh ideology with roots in ancient tribal rule and the politics of the anthill, in which strict hierarchies and rule of the strong are expressly exalted.

*slam is not a religion like the others. It is a hateful death cult.

It was not the Angle Gabriel who whispered in Mohamed's ear.

Islam appears to be more like a cult of testosterone, than a religion.

Islam appeals to the young male ego by giving it direction and permission to do what it will and wants to do, and all with the promised blessings of allah and virgins in paradise for the true islamist.

As such, it is, it was and it always will be a force for evil in the world. How could it be anything else?

By its fruit we may judge islam and islam's fruits are the fruits of Satan.

[PGR88]

Islam sounds just like Stalinism.

Just for the record, I’m not Roman Catholic, nor am I endorsing this website, I just thought this was a terrific article about the ethics of Islam toward non-Muslims.

It should be noted that the Roman Catholic & Lutheran numbering of the 10 Commandments differs from ordinary Protestant and Eastern Orthodox numbering. Basically #1 & #2 (1-No other gods, 2-No idols) commands are combined as the 1st Command, so, the Don’t Covet command (#10 in the Protestant version) is divided between (#9)don’t covet your neighbor’s wife, and (#10) don’t covet anything else of your neighbor’s, in order to compile the commands to number 10.

Since the biblical text in Hebrew (Exodus 20, and Deuteronomy 5) has no numbers attached to the Decalogue, though it is referred to elsewhere in the bible as 10 Commandments (or, the 10 Big Things...literally the meaning in Hebrew), there is room for interpretation as to where exactly the 10 divisions in the text are.

The Church Father Augustine favored what is now the Catholic/Lutheran enumeration, whereas the Church Father Origen favored the Eastern Orthodox/Protestant enumeration. Since everyone agrees on the same text...WHERE exactly the numbers are in the 10 Commandments is not considered a matter of dogma.

Modern Jewish sources also have a third different enumeration. All three numberings have their sources from different ancient Jewish traditions, and all rely on the same words in the text.

As long as you've already gone there, the Jewish Decalogue has no proscription against killing.

Says the Torah (Exodus 20:13): Lo tirtzach!


The Hebrew word used has a clear and unequivocal meaning: “Do not murder.”

Unfortunately, this verse is generally mistranslated as “Do not kill.” But the Hebrew could not be more clear, and there is a world of difference between killing and murder.

This is the Sixth Commandment. How many times have you heard “Thou shalt not kill”? This mistranslation is etched upon the hearts and minds of both Jewish and Christian children and adults with pernicious results. Can we possibly estimate the numbers of lives that have been lost by foolish pacifism rather than righteous defense in the face of evil?
