When will someone have the guts to talk about Islam
realistically? Islam is a theo-political construct. It is just
another branch of the totalitarian branch, very much like Marxism. Look at the
similarities....a single, all powerful leader...not elected. A
"puppet" legislative branch with elected "representatives"
who are required to rubber stamp the will of the supreme leader....a judiciary
that does the same. Economic stratification that is not reflected by a
statistical bell curve where the "middle class" has a large
population but instead has a statistically insignificant size of upper class
and a MASSIVE percentage of economically disadvantaged who either have no
allegiance to the political system (see Kurds, Bedouins,etc) or total reliance
upon government for subsistence. It simply wraps itself in the guise of religion
as a way of control.
Think about it....Marx said "From each according to his
ability, to each according to his need (or needs)". In other words, it is
required of the individual to produce as much as he can and it is then given to
the "distribution" mechanism (government) to redistribute as it sees
fit. It actually DECIDES who needs what and how much and if an individual
decides that he needs more than is given by the government, that individual
becomes an enemy of the state subject to punishment by the state.
Then along comes Mohammed, who doesn’t
have a “state” for redistribution of production but he needs to figure out
a way to punish those who don't follow his commands. Now remember, you have to
make sure that your subjects don't do too much thinking for
themselves. So you start by saying women can't go to
school. That's a good start. Need them breeding and making more
subjects...don't need them wasting time with things like reading...and
writing...and being exposed to other cultures. That takes care of half
the population right there!!!!
As for the other half, he comes up with
a pretty good idea….get the people who he controls to believe it is not the
state that will punish them for going against his will…..but GOD! Do what you
are told and you will be rewarded in the afterlife! Don’t worry about now….this
life…it’s not really important. In fact, if you are particularly submissive,
you may be rewarded with 72 virgins in Heaven. Not really sure how that is a
reward but….. Oh, and, just for the record, if you do commit transgressions
against God’s will (actually the state’s will) it would not be a simple
flogging or life in prison….no….it will be an eternity in HELL!!!!! So
if you are a goat herder that can’t read or write and probably the only people
he knows that CAN are the very people I’m talking about above, you aren’t going
to be in any position to dispute what they say…..unless you are willing to
spend eternity in Hell.
So now, because it is God making the rules and doling out the punishment, that makes it a religion. Huh.....pretty good scam, if you ask me!
