Islam Thrives on radical hate

Submitted by Carl Smith (United States), Jun 19, 2007 at 09:19

Islam is a fatalistic religion where the individual is powerless to affect change. If God wills it, it will happen with or without human intervention. Currently it produces nothing but dirt poverty, starvation and backwardness. There isn't a single first world islamic nation on earth. The wealth of islam comes from the ground or from the West. Without hate it would die of the failure of its own culture, as did the Soviet Union. The measure of a culture is how well it provides for its adherents.
