Islam and slavery

I agree with most of which you had to say, but it is up to Muslims to reclaim their religion, if it is so important to them. Personally, I do NOT believe in any religion; all are cults created to control others and thereby gain riches, position and power, and that includes Christianity. The fact remains that Muslims are all members of the same club and they will always back each other.

...Check on the Internet how Islam still advocates slavery. You may think that slavery vanished thousands of years ago, but it's still alive and well in many ME and African countries with Islamic governments.

Go to the Internet and check up on Mauritania and learn for yourself how hundreds of thousands of slaves still exist there today (2006), people who have been enslaved for hundreds of years and have no hope or dreams other than to be free, and not too many people know about this. Somalia is already under threat from Islamic rule.

And these Muslims are trying to impose on Westerners their sharia law. They don't stand a snowball's chance in hell, but we must be vigilant. They are already infiltrating the West, slowly but surely, and we must do our utmost to resist....

Am I over-reacting? NO, I AM NOT! Unless we do something about this, the day will come when we will regret our apathetic and "politically correct" approach to this threat, so it is important for our governments to monitor this situation very closely, BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE!

We are an advanced race compared to them and they want to take us back 2,000 years or more after all we have achieved throughout the centuries.
