Questioning the motives of this site...

Some will question the motives of this site. They believe the articles are motivated by "hate". Some will express concern that the Christian ideals of "love your enemies" or "we are all God's children" or "judge not lest ye be judged" are being ignored.

Assuming those are honest perceptions, let's address them.

There is no "hate" felt toward Muslims. Concern and disappointment, yes. Most of my concern is expressed toward the American public, politicians, and media who choose to remain naive and uninformed about the basics of Islam and the direction it has taken over the last several decades. One web site site wisely urges "don't judge the Muslims that you know by Islam and don't judge Islam by the Muslims that you know."

Every effort is being made to present objective facts in a spirit of enlightened self interest on behalf of our nation. Nothing "personal" is intended toward any individual. I know that some among you may have Muslim neighbors or co-workers who are or appear to be fine, patriotic, family-oriented and civic-minded citizens. I know no Muslims personally. This site is about Islam, and what many Muslims have expressed on behalf of Islamic doctrine and Islamic intentions with regard to the inferiority of other religions and lifestyles with which they disagree. The motive of this site is to present facts about Islam which have become obvious, but which for various reasons, are suppressed or ignored in the media and by those with passive, often uninformed live and let live tendencies.

We need to ask, what is the basis for passive, live and let live tendencies? Some might call it the "kum-by-yah syndrome" - the "we can all get along together" ideal. Some embrace it to secure "inner peace", the "la la la la la la" with the fingers stuck in the ears or the "don't bother me with the facts, I might get upset" mentality.

“Judge not lest ye be judged” is an expression we’ve grown up with that helps justify our political correctness and our penchant for cultural diversity. That well-meaning expression is one of the most misapplied verses of Scripture. It is not surprising that those who misapply it most as the basis of judging those who judge are either not Christian themselves or are ignorant about the context of that oft-quoted verse. It is often interpreted to a mindless extreme: Don’t judge between good and evil; right and wrong. Don’t presume we are right and another person is wrong. Give every idea, utterance, and action of another the benefit of the doubt no matter how obscene, obscure, or objectionable it might be.

More accurately, the expression pertains to the fact that we are subject to the same standards by which we judge others. Don’t judge unfairly; don’t judge out of ignorance. Conversely, informed judgment is a good thing – as is “discernment”: the exercise of informed judgment. Judgment is essential for us to be moral beings – to have a sense of right and wrong.

Unfortunately, there are growing numbers of Americans who have become “moral relativists” who disdain or deny there is such a thing as right and wrong. It is only someone’s “opinion.” Any anti-social action is defended as someone’s freedom of expression. "Live and let live." Many of our political leaders are moral relativists. Llike General Casey who still blindly promotes "cultural diversity" over unity in the military and who refuses to acknowledge the ideology of the Islamic terrorist who killed 13 of his soldiers as the predominant motivating cause (see Fort Hood massacre).

Cultural diversity is the handmaiden of moral relativism. Our military, FBI, CIA, and many police departments practice moral relativism when they continue to give Islamists the benefit of the doubt despite their promotion of violence, bigotry, hatred, and Islamic supremacism.

Why is it OK for Islamists to demean, denounce, threaten, belittle, and bemoan “the infidel”, but not ok for Jews and Christians to be critical of Islamist intolerance, supremacism and bigotry? Is it our disdain of “judging” others? Our affinity toward cultural diversity? Or has it gone beyond that?

Have we transitioned from electing to be “culturally diverse” to being coerced into Dhimmitude? It is appearing more and more that we are being intimidated into submission by the very ones to whom we granted the benefit of the doubt via our failure to judge. This appears to be the case. In the Fort Hood case, doctors and officers up and down the line are expressing that they failed to act on Hasan’s many obvious signs for fear of litigation by the Muslim community, fear of being called a bigot, or fear of disciplinary measures from their superior officers for violating their self-imposed rules of cultural diversity (aka “do not judge – do not think”). Those public leaders who let us down because of these fears are the true Islamophobes - not those of us who are bringing the vile ideology of Islam to public light.

Prejudice against Islam? Or dire warnings for good cause?

This article explores the difference, using a recent survey on "prejudice against Islam" as the backdrop for understanding the difference.

There is no question that basic Islam as taught in the Qur’an, as written and practiced by Muhammad, as being promoted by the great majority of Islamic leaders and teachers around the globe, promotes intolerance and Islamic Supremacism through any means up to and including violence and terror. There is no doubt that Sharia law and Islam’s universal treatment of women is an anathema to our own culture and our own values. Yet we give Muslims the benefit of the doubt. Why? Because we “assume” they are moderate and benign. And because we fear the consequences of uttering otherwise.

Most Muslims appear to be patriotic, America-loving individuals. No doubt some are. The trouble with this assumption, as Hasan, the Fort Hood Jihadist, has demonstrated, is this:

No, the same dilemma cannot be attributed to Christians and Jews and atheists. These groups don’t have a tiny fraction of the track record in the past millennia that Islam has in the last decade. Don’t even try that “moral equivalency” BS.

We need a major shift of thinking from the past several decades. We need to become more judgmental, more discerning, less culturally diverse, more appreciative of our own culture, more aware of the evil intent embedded in Islamic texts and teaching, and appropriately less tolerant of those in opposition of our values and our way of life. We need to be more objectively aware and think more. That is the motive behind this website. See also why I am not kinder and gentler toward Islam.
