What People Believe

It has long astonished me that people will believe some of the most incredibly unlikely supernatural mumbo-jumbo. And the believers aren’t all half-wits, idiots and imbeciles. Clearly they are either people with poor critical thinking abilities, those who are just too lazy to make a focused effort at analyzing the facts, or those who believe the ludicrous stories they are told for no good reason than someone else told them they are true.

Many of them are fundamentalists who believe their holy books were the work a God (their God, of course the only true God) created as their manual; how to live and survive as a human being. Despite the overwhelming evidence that multiple people created the Holy Bible over decades after Jesus Christ had descended wholly into the sky one sunny afternoon, millions of people believe it records ad verbatim the instructions from God.

The Quran is in much the same boat. It has short, unconnected suras that don’t appear in any real order as though they were each a card in a pack of cards that fell on the floor and was swept up haphazardly.

If I was God, I would be highly insulted to think that millions of people thought I would put out such shoddy work. And that I had never upgraded it and left it alone for a few thousand years. All the hatred, violence, terrible things recorded in both texts and the very bad examples are all attributed to me … or my son or prophet. I would be devastated.

If I was God and wanted to impose a religion on my creation, it would be so obvious that everyone would follow it without having to think about it; they would want to do it from the bottom of their hearts. There would be only ONE religion available to everyone and everyone would be treated equally.

Let’s face it. If there was a God who personally looked after each and every one of us, wouldn’t the world be in much better state than it is? Doesn’t the earth, nature and humanity look more like the product of evolution than the product of a supreme being who is omniscient, without flaws and capable of anything?

Why would the most intelligent article in existence let us fall into the trap of original sin, threaten us with an eternity of misery and suffering, create us imperfect with design flaws and more, allow animals and people to suffer needlessly?

Why would I have weeds in my garden and only two sets of teeth to last me for 80 years?

It is obvious to increasing numbers of people. It’s all a delusion we have created for ourselves to explain our unusual and unlikely existence. It makes us feel happy about ourselves thinking that we are part of some amazing plan rather than just pieces of thinking meat that age, deteriorate, die and return to the base matter from which we originated.

These are some of the reasons why I am a non-believer. However, the good thing is that I’m also open minded enough to explore new options. Give me some credible information and if it is logical, consistent and based on reason and science, I’ll be happy to change my mind if the evidence presents.

Unfortunately, the deluded will often not even consider alternative propositions.

What is Shari’a Law?

“As Sharia is applied to a society, the host civilization is annihilated in each and every manifestation of culture. This annihilation is demonstrated by a peculiar fact about the history of Islamic countries-part of it is missing.”

This article written by Bill Warner, Director of the Center for the Study of Political Islam is long, but well worth reading if you really want to know something about Shari’a and Islam in general:

“Sharia, the Islamic legal code, is devoted to regulating the life of Muslims in every detail — sex, food, art, business, education, prayer, manners, speech and how to think and not to think. All aspects of life—religion, politics, ethics, culture—are within the bounds of Sharia. It is the operating manual for a complete civilization. And the civilization of Sharia is not just different, it contradicts our civilization.

THE CIVILIZATION OF ISLAM

One of the clearest lessons about Islam is found in the Sharia. The largest part of the Sharia is devoted to regulating the life of Muslims down to the smallest detail. There is no aspect of life that is not regulated-sex, food, art, business, education, prayer, manners, speech and how to think and not to think. There is no aspect of life that is outside the power of Sharia-religion, politics, ethics, culture are included. The Sharia is the operating manual for a complete civilization. Islam is complete within itself and needs nothing from the outside.

The Sharia has one other quality that is as important as the totality of its scope. The civilization of Sharia is not just different, it contradicts our civilization.

Inside Islam justice, religion, politics, law, human rights and compassion do not mean what they mean to us. All of these ideas are based on the principles of submission and duality as found in the Sharia. Read more here.

Letter to Editor About Islam

The following is said to have been written by an American women and appeared in a US newspaper. It summarises the whole Islamization debate very well at a time when one country is considering mass deportation of its muslim residents. I don’t think I could have said it any better:

“Are we fighting a war on terror or aren’t we? Was it or was it not started by Islamic people who brought it to our shores in July 2002, and in New York Sept 11 – 2001 and have continually threatened to do so since?

Were people from all over the world, not brutally murdered that day in London, and in downtown Manhattan , and in a field in Pennsylvania ?

Did nearly three thousand men, women and children die a horrible, burning or crushing death that day, or didn’t they?

And I’m supposed to care that a few Taliban were claiming to be tortured by a justice system of the nation they come from and are fighting against in a brutal insurgency.

I’ll start caring when Osama bin Laden turns himself in and repents for incinerating all those innocent people on 9/11 and 7/7.

I’ll care about the Koran when the fanatics in the Middle East start caring about the Holy Bible, the mere belief of which is a crime punishable by beheading in Afghanistan

I’ll care when these thugs tell the world they are sorry for hacking off Nick Berg’s head while Berg screamed through his gurgling slashed throat.

I’ll care when the cowardly so-called ‘insurgents’ in Afghanistan come out and fight like men instead of disrespecting their own religion by hiding in mosques and behind women and children.

I’ll care when the mindless zealots who blow themselves up in search of Nirvana care about the innocent children within range of their suicide bombs.

I’ll care when the British media stops pretending that their freedom of speech on stories is more important than the lives of the soldiers on the ground or their families waiting at home to hear about them when something happens.

In the meantime, when I hear a story about a British soldier roughing up an Insurgent terrorist to obtain information, know this:

I don’t care.

When I see a wounded terrorist get shot in the head when he is told not to move because he might be booby-trapped, you can take this to the bank:

I don’t care.

When I hear that a prisoner – who was issued a Koran and a prayer mat, and ‘fed special food’ that is paid for by my taxes – is complaining that his holy book is being ‘mishandled,’ you can absolutely believe in your heart of hearts:

I don’t care.

And oh, by the way, I’ve noticed that sometimes it’s spelled ‘Koran’ and other times ‘Quran.’ Well, believe me!! you guessed it ……

I don’t care!!

If you agree with this viewpoint, pass this on to all your E-mail friends. Sooner or later, it’ll get to the people responsible for this ridiculous behaviour!

If you don’t agree, then by all means hit the delete button. Should you choose the latter, then please don’t complain when more atrocities committed by radical Muslims happen here in our great country! And may I add:

‘Some people spend an entire lifetime wondering if they made a difference in the world. Our soldiers don’t have that problem.’

I have another quote that I would like to add, AND … I hope you forward all this.

Only five defining forces have ever offered to die for you:

1. Jesus Christ

2. The British Soldier.

3. The Canadian Soldier.

4. The US Soldier, and

5. The Australian Soldier

One died for your soul, the other 4 for your freedom.”

Fight against Islamization of your country otherwise your freedom and democracy will be gone forever.

Learning About Islam Essential for Survival

Indian muslims prayingMany of the followers of religions are often ignorant of the core principles and values of those religions. This is particularly true of Islam. The Quran was written in Arabic, but most muslims aren’t Arabs and don’t read or write Arabic.

They learn by word of mouth and are compelled to believe what they are told. They aren’t allowed to question the teachings. Blind obedience is required at every step and as we all know, it’s not permitted to leave the religion once they have been caught up in it.

If some of the billion plus people who are muslims knew more about Islam, they would probably stop practising. Islam is not simply a religion, it is a system of total control of one’s thoughts and life, a totalitarian system. Because it is a totalitarian system, it is a huge threat to everyone who isn’t muslim, or who isn’t sufficiently muslim.

In the West where we are free and democratic, we are under threat of an Islamic takeover
. We are at war and it’s not only the war with suicide bombers and the Taliban, it’s the war from within our countries where Islamists are subtly working to take over our countries and force all of us to live under their Shari’a Law.

Everyone who lives in a modern, free, democratic society needs to learn about their enemy … Islam. While there are increasing numbers of sites now warning us of Islamic takeover, the best site to learn about Islam in a non-emotive way is at An Inquiry Into Islam.

The information there is accurate and balanced and the writing is superb. If you aren’t knowlegeable about Islam, you need to go there now: http://www.inquiryintoislam.com

Don’t leave it until it’s too late.
