Dear readers.
I am sure that Islam was started by the use of force. the sword at that time. A mixure of good intention of course but today almost every terroist act has an islamic stamp to it. They seem to be so emotionally unballanced in the islamic countries that they even fight any other brand of islam juts to get heir anger out and the emotion of revange, The feeling of insult or the perception of it is about a book the quran they are willing to kill people for.
I do meet some very nice muslims in china centre and can not fault them but what I see in the midleeast or most islam nations appart from Malaysia is not inspiring and turns one right of ever to addopt this beliefsystem. The need to evolve emotionally and catch up with christins and who also had a bad record by their institutional leaders and mop violene with witch burning not to long ago.
No doubt some Muslims are wonderful people. Why do more Muslims die in stampede in Hajj near Mecca then get blown up by their brothers over the last few years.. They even destroy each others Mosque. So they are the least inspiring least peacefull religion and the evidence is there day in day our just watch the news.
The emotional impatience is in too many of them and if it was not for George Bush that removed the stable control of Saddam and US took Gadaffi from libya into chaos so as to give those tormented soules an popportunity of fighting till they get sick of it and get it out of their system over several liftimes if need to be. That is evolution.
Noble is if people die motivated by love and rescue a humans life risking or giving teir life. In some islam groups it seems people are only united by hate and die in the hate driven stuper giving their life for hate. No they are the anti love force and are not enspiring for all good humanity.
