Those groups are quasi-religious as well. They are just like Islam: Quasi-religious with an ideology of hate and conquest.

Islam, Nazis, KKK. . . . . its all hate and violence. Anyone who can't see that is a blind fool

And you aren't a blind fool for comparing a religion to hateful racist ideologies such as the ones promoted by the Nazis and the KKK?

You say its a religion. I say its not. Its a hodgepodge of Christian beliefs, Jewish beliefs, and Arab traditions, all cobbled together into an ideology of hate and conquest by some 6th century madman in order to rally the hoards to battle.

That's all it is.

Islam, Nazis, KKK. . . . . its all hate, conquest, oppression and violence. Anyone who can't see that is a blind fool.

Do you see any Buddhists blowing up skyscrapers and strapping on suicide bombs? Any Hindus? Any Catholics? Any Baptists?Or even eny atheists for thatmatter?

Nope. Its all Muslims, Islamo-Fascists. And like that idiot Obama, you and your ilk want to blind yourselves to what is blatantly obvious to anyone else.

Why I cannot fathom is: WHY

That is the question: WHY? Why is the Left afraid of the truth, afraid to see what is right in front of their noses?

It happened in WWII. Some Americans supported Hitler before the war, did business with him. Lots of protesters said to stay out of the war. Others minimalized Hitler, saying he was just some little nothing with a goofy mustache.

And even though Hitler proclaimed everything he would do in his book Mein Kampf, people dismissed it.

And today, history repeats itself. Nobody on ther Left wants to see this evil for what it is. Oh, the Republican Party they will call evil and go after with a vengeance. LOL! The stupidity! But the real evil? That they defend, and some even embrace.

Why?

Its impossible for someone to stick their own head up their "rear".
 

I hate to have to keep using this. Islam is a religion.

Islam is religion, state and jihad all rolled into one.

While there are Muslims who'd just as soon live in peace as not, quite a lot of them actually, it seems wherever you reach a certain critical mass violence beings and attempts to implement Sharia law... which ends in things like beheading apostates and stoning women for the crime of getting raped.

Fair post. Thank you for being thoughtful about the question. That's a rare commodity.
 
The people who did business with Hitler, and minimised his power, allowing him time to grow more powerful, were the likes of Dubya's grandpa, hardly lefties.

Ahh, it didn't take long for the Blame-Bush stupidity to raise its ugly head.

LOL! How pathetic.
 
With the exception of Goshin in Post #6, I have not gotten one intelligent answer to the OP, which merely reinforces the OP.

My video tells you everything you need to now about Islam. Islam is a religion but unlike Christianity or Judaism, Islam also had to evolve as a political force. Jesus or Moses never had an empire to run, Muhammad did.
 
`
I believe in the Freedom to practice whatever religion or faith you want so long as it does not interfere with my constitutional rights.

I also believe that the Abrahamic faiths are benign and that it is evil men who corrupt them. This concept applies to Christianity, Judaism and Islam.

As it is presented in the video, Islam is a religion, a government, a law, military territory conquest campaign propaganda (i.e., All territories belong to Islam cause not us, but God wants it so), culture, and education.

The word is Islam is oppression and totalitarianism. And "Islam" means submitting to it!!
 
It's a religion. People have routinely used religion, particularly Abrahamic ones, as a catalyst for war and violence throughout history.

Let's say I start "The Church of the Flying Frisbee". I apply for a tax exempt status, rent a hall, and away I go.

Am I a religion? The law says I am. My freedom of religion says I am. But am I really one?

As stated in the OP, Islam a hodgepodge of Christian beliefs, Jewish beliefs, and Arab traditions, all cobbled together into an ideology of hate and conquest by some 6th century madman in order to rally the hoards to battle. If you want to call that a religion then go ahead. I say its not, and I am correct.

Every major religion is a hodgepodge of various cultural traditions at the time. Why on earth would you think Judaism or Christianity is any different in that regard. Have you ever read the OT? It is every bit as violent as the Koran is. Hell if Moses were alive today he would be tried for war crimes and crimes against humanity. The main difference between Islam and other Abrahamic religions is that the others have moderated more over the last 200 years.
