Myth of Islamic Contribution to Human Civilization

mad-muslim-01.jpgAs is increasingly being portrayed as an obscurantist and violent which promotes cruelty, , human rights violation and a hindrance to progress & modernization, the Muslim apologists - who sometimes go by the label “moderate ” - are desperately trying to defend as a of peace, progress and modernity. In their desperation, Muslim apologists are often making extraordinary claims such as ’s contribution to human civilization as a measure of progressiveness.

    The non-hat wearing fellow had numerous good points. So I’m still not thinking the Muslims are a violent war mongering people as a whole, this only serves to perpetuate the widespread belief and opinion that these radical folks are the main taboo squeeze, because that other fellow was really enlightened. I suppose I came out of this post with a glimmer of hope mixed quite uncomfortably with a new interpretation of Hitler.

    William,

    I know I come off to many as saying the Muslims themselves are violent. The point I usually am trying to get across is that the religion itself promotes violence. There is a lot of evidence of that just from al-Qur’an and even more when one gets into the Hadith and other texts. Not to mention the media in the Muslim countries.

    I posted this video because it an example of the many Arabs, Muslim or not, that are beginning to challenge the teachings of Islam and it’s scholars.

    I have a couple more I will be posing soon as well. Hopefully the glimmer of hope you and I have in common can continue to be expanded upon as more people stand up to 7th century ideology.

    (6/7)It should not surprise us that when a person starts believing in the Koran a demonic product he turns evil. In the New Testament in the letter to the Ephesians 4:30..” God’s Holy Spirit.. gets rid of all bitterness, passion, anger.. hateful feelings of any sort.. instead makes you kind and tender hearted.. forgiving one another.. as God has forgiven you through Christ.” This Spirit is not the spirit that leads practicing muslims to pillage, maime, rape, kill and to become suicide bombers.

    (7/7) As Christians in the West we have a great opportunity and obligation to lovingly approach our Muslim neighbours with the Good News of the true Jesus so that their eyes may be opened and step from darkness into light, if we don’t, it will be to our own detriment, as Christianity is the only defense against Islam.

    As long as Satan can convince you that Jesus was no better than any other prophet and isn’t necessary for salvation, YOU WILL GO TO HELL.That is all that is needed. Satan has covered his tracks with what seems to many as to be ‘holy scriptures’- Would the devil create a book called ‘Satanic Satanism for Dummies’? NO! He’s smarter than that! He might call it something ‘religious’ sounding.. Say it came from an angel.. Include some Biblical prophets for credibility.. add a pinch of Jesus..

    Christians don’t want to kill anybody- I certainly don’t. The goal is to show people the truth in the hopes they will accept Christ and be in heaven forever. Killing people would make that, uh.. Difficult. Muslims on the other hand don’t mind the idea of sending ‘infidels’ to hell…

    It is incredible that muslims still speak of the ‘dark age’ before Muhammad where supposedly all arab tribes were at war and there was no law: Jihad has not ceased during the 1400 years that islam has been in existed, it is clear that there is a serious dysfunction and a problem of absolutism within Islamic ideology and people are reluctant to be honest about this, maybe out of fear!

    The imam also fails to clarify how one’s sexuality determines one’s character. It is not self evident to anyone who does not believe in his crazy ideology. I’ve met many people who would be considered promiscuous or sexually liberal who are sweet, decent, hard working citizens who mean absolutely no harm to anyone or to the state or to society (unlike his terrorist criminals who love iniquity and hate justice). Homophobia is nothing but a vulgar superstition.

    Very funny how desperate the sheik ibrahim al-khouli gets with his debate as he tries to make a direct link between “matereialistic technology and homosexuality”. Moreover, I highly doubt this man would have anything bad to say about homosexuality if he were to be in the company of two beautiful women having sex before his very eyes. As far as islam being a “religion of peace”, the only reason why islam does not attack other cultures with direct military force is because it can’t.

    Jewsareliars, read up on your history and you’ll learn that the ancient israelites were in “Israel” 2600 years before it was settled by muslims. The only reason islam expanded as far as it has in the first place is because since 630 AD muslims have had a tendancy to encroach upon other cultures, settle in, reproduce like rabbits, build mosques and then demand “cultural sensetivity” on behalf of all non-muslims. Bashing christianity holds no water either as I am not a christian (or jew).
