MORE ISLAM

At the present time the world's preeminent irrational belief system is Islam. Islam is a absolutist, totalitarian, imperialistic, expansionist and barbarian belief system. It needs to be suppressed.

It is not the only such system, but is is the one that is the most immediate threat to civilization. But it solves nothing to point out that other such systems are, or have been just as dangerous. That the Inquisition committed atrocities is a fact. That the Protestants committed atrocities is also a fact. That the Crusades were evil is not in dispute. But the thing that these examples, as well as many others, have in common is that they were all committed in the name of some religion.

Religion is the antithesis of reason. Religion denies reason. Religion attacks and oppresses reason. The religious believe that the end justifies the means. The ends being universal obedience. This means that any religion will be opposed to every other religion. Opposition represents an existential threat and must be exterminated. Thus there will always be religious wars and conflicts as long as there is more than one religion in the world.

Unbelievers pose a special threat to religions because unbelievers are likely to persuade the faithful into disbelief. This is especially threatening because unbelievers tend to use logic to point out absurdities and inconsistencies in religious doctrines. And, as stated above, reason is the antithesis of belief.

Superstition can be defined as an irrational belief arising from ignorance or fear. Superstition denies cause and effect. This is a perfect definition of religion. Men are ignorant of the way the universe works, and ascribe unexplained events to supernatural agencies. Men fear death and wish to deny it's existence by supposing that death will not be the end of their existence.

Power seekers prey on this ignorance by providing explanations and myths. They gain power by claiming to have some kind of special knowledge, or access to the gods. Secular rulers recognize the utility of these beliefs and support and protect the “priests”. People who believe that they will be rewarded in an afterlife for their obedience in this life are easy to control. It is a natural symbiotic relationship which has served both factions well throughout history.

All wars have been caused by power seekers acting to impose their irrational belief systems on others. Until mankind rejects such superstitious and irrational beliefs there will be no progress, and the world will continue to be plagued by by war, oppression and violence.
