Imaginary Islam and Real Islam

In the world of imaginary Islam, millions of Muslims are peaceful individuals who love everyone and eschew hatred, violence and misogyny just as the Koran commands them to.

And in the imaginary world of Islam, the few "extremists" who commit violence and jihad against non-Muslims do so in opposition to the teachings of Muhammad.

Ironically, some of the biggest proponents of imaginary Islam are non-Muslims such as Barack Obama The Great and David Cameron The Diligent. 

Obama, who's great because he says so, continually emphasizes that Islam is a "Religion of Peace" that's been hijacked by a few radicals who besmirch Islam's historically peaceful reputation.

If you don't believe that Islam is indeed a Religion of Peace, then let the Great One enlighten you with these pearls of wisdom: "Throughout history, Islam has demonstrated through words and deeds the possibilities of religious tolerance and racial equality." 

Or, how about this great nugget of truth: "Islam is not part of the problem in combating violent extremism – it is an important part of promoting peace." 

Or, this one: "Islam has a proud tradition of tolerance."

Cameron, who's diligent because he cracks down hard on those who openly criticize the "Religion of Peace" in the United Kingdom, diligently fails to crackdown on those extremists and radicals who openly criticize such faiths as Christianity and Judaism.

His kingdom is literally falling apart because those few extremists and radicals who besmirch the Religion of Peace are causing a lot of trouble by persecuting all those dhimmis who refuse to convert to the Religion of Peace.

Since the dhimmis have dared to suggest that Islam isn't the Religion of Peace that its apologists boldly claim it is, then Cameron and his government have been forced to silence them so they don't offend that vast majority of peace-loving Muslims.

In the world of real Islam, the vast majority of Muslims are only peaceful because they're cultural Muslims rather than fundamental Muslims. A cultural Muslim, like a cultural Christian, follows only the rudimentary laws and customs of his faith while ignoring the core tenets of his faith.

A fundamental Muslim adheres to the strict teachings of the Koran. And there are over 100 war verses in the Koran that command Muslims to commit jihad against infidels (non-believers) until they either convert to Islam or they're killed.

Here's an example: "Take not from among them friends until they fly (follow) in Allah’s way; but if they turn back, then seize them and kill them wherever you find them." (Sura 4:89)

Here's an another example: "When you meet in battle those who disbelieve, then smite the necks until when you have overcome them, then make (them) prisoners, and afterwards either set them free as a favor or let them ransom (themselves) until the war terminates...(as for) those who are slain in the way of Allah." (Sura 47:4)

And finally, there's this one: "The punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His apostle and strive to make mischief in the land is only this, that they should be murdered or crucified or their hands and their feet should be cut off on opposite sides or they should be imprisoned. This shall be as a disgrace for them in this world, and in the hereafter they shall have a grievous chastisement." (Sura 5:33)

You won't find a single verse in the Bible's New Testament where Christ ordered his disciples and followers to convert the world to Christianity by force. Christ ordered his followers to spread the Gospel peacefully and He expressively condemned violence: "For all who draw the sword will die by the sword." (Matthew 26:52)

And yet, there are those who, in their desperate attempt to equate Christianity with Islam, point to the Crusades and the Inquisitions that happened centuries ago. Both of those events were orchestrated by the Roman Catholic Church and occurred in opposition to what Christ taught rather than in obedience to what He taught.

There is no comparison between true biblical Christianity and Islam. Christianity is the true Religion of Peace while Islam has historically used murder and violence to maintain itself and spread across the world.

Those who understand real Islam know that. Those who don't continue to live in an imaginary world of make believe. And believing that Islam is a peaceful religion will never change reality.
