What if islam vanishes

Submitted by G.Vishvas (Germany), Oct 17, 2008 at 04:02

Islam is an ideology of the 7th century. It is an ideology of some arabs imposed on all arabs and then on many non-arabs.

Islam is a totalitarian ideology and uses fascist merhods for its spread and survival. Islam misuses the word "god" and the name of god for its evil or primitive commands, laws and instigations.

There is no need for anyone today (arab or non-arab) to be sad if islam collapses and vanishes. There is no need for anyone to associate his self-respect or honor or love with islam or kuran or Mohammad. On the contrary a decent human being will abhor islam and any association with islam.

On the day Mohammad died islam came to an end. No one today is under any compulsion to revive it or uphold it or die or kill for it. Unfortunately there are still too many islamically indoctrinated persons who are imprisoned in the thralls and manipulations of islam and its evils. Islam is a societal illness. Should one be unhappy if a disease disappears? But to understand that needs some rationality, calmness, self-respect and knowledge of reality. Muslims don't and can't have that.
