Islam is the Problem

I do not see how moderates in Islam bring any solution to the world stage. If anything, THEY are the real core of what is wrong. Should the fanatics be contained, moderates would continue to cling to the teachings of this prophet and in the next generation would produce new fanatics. It is a continuing cycle. The crazy actions of these groups can be traced to moderate communities, who just keep clinging to this evil as if it will somehow produce good. They refuse to recognise that Islam was stillborn and never had anywhere to go.

On the other hand, should the fanatics prevail and there are no more infidels left. The continuing quest of the sword, to have a glorious entry into heaven, would see the attack turn on the moderates as the solution. Any small infraction, would be reason for attack. We see this now in Afghanistan where they turn on each other.

This would continue until, there are no more moderates left to kill. Then, to follow the prophet, they would form into one fanatic group against another fanatic group. Until mainstream muslims finally see the future of this belief, there can be no hope for themselves or anyone else.

It is the clinging to evil, of the mainstream muslims, that is the core problem.
