LUANDA – According to several Angolain newspapers, Angola has become the first country in the world to ban Islam and Muslims, taking first measures by destroying mosques in the country.

About time. Islam is a retrograde political movement masquerading as a religion - a dangerous societal cancer.

Is Scientology still illegal in Germany? If I recall properly, it was in the 1990s. Too clandestine, too much financial trickery, too vindictive against those who spoke out against it.

For reference

“Angola’s population is overwhelmingly Christian. About three-fifths of the population is Roman Catholic, about one-sixth is Protestant, and the remainder adhere to traditional beliefs or other religions.”

In ten hours, Angola will be on fire. In ten days, Angola will cease to exist.

It was, but still came back. It was also illegal in Britain, but came back.

However, some of Windows versions were banned in German State use, because a supplier of one of the modules was a Scientologist.

Do either of those nations officially recognize Scientology as a religion? President Bill Clinton made that call in America after John Travolta paid him a visit.

One of the things most muslims agree is the sign to engage in physical jihad against a people/nation is the prohibition of Islam. Even the so called moderates sign on.

I bet they don’t have Obamacare in Angola, either.

Islam is just one of 200 religions and sects (including some variants of Christianity) that Angola’s Marxist rulers have banned.

I wouldn’t be so sure about that. It’s a shame Jonas Savimbi won’t be around to enjoy this either way. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jonas_Savimbi
