Until the advent of materialism and 19th c. dogma, Western Civilisation was superior to anything Islam had developed. Islam has not aided in the development of the modern world; in fact civilisation has only been created in spite of Islam. Proof of this resides in the 'modern' world and the unending political-economic and spiritual poverty of Muslim states and regions. Squatting on richer civilisations is not 'progress'. Islam is pagan, totalitarian, and irrational.
Islam's Christianophobia runs deep in the Koran. One of the most important Suras is Sura 5 or The Table Spread. The table is spread for Muslims and Muslims only, containing all the food, delights and merriment that a full table confers upon the chosen and supreme of the Al Lah-Muhammad cult. Sura 5 has 120 verses and 25% are excitedly Christophobic or Christianophobic.
Much of this disjointed chapter is concerned with Bronze and Iron age laws, which one would find in the historical records of Bronze Age Babylonia, or Iron-Age Judea. This primitive 'law giving' is suffused by long rants against Jews and Christians. Within this dichotomy of law-giving, 3 Muslim 'virtues' are clearly defined. These are the important ‘tenets’ or categories which describe a ‘good’ Muslim, a member of Muhammad’s cult who follows the Koran, and Koranic ‘law’. The Muslim ‘virtues’ given in Sura 5 are:
First, a good Muslim must never accept Christians as friends (you may lie, deceive them into thinking you are friends but privately, you cannot accept them as equals or friends in any way).
Second, you must blindly follow and completely accept, whatever Muhammad has said or done.
Third kill, in the name of Jihad, you are ordered to execute or crucify the Jews and Christians.
Verses 05-010 and 05-035 sum up Sura 5 nicely. Moslems must engage in fighting against the Christians, and all Christians are doomed to Hellfire:
|
URL 005:035 |
O you who believe! Do your duty to Allah and fear Him. Seek the means of approach to Him, and strive hard in His Cause as much as you can. So that you may be successful. |
|
They who disbelieve and deny our Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) are those who will be the dwellers of the Hellfire. |
Sure 5:32, often quoted by Moslemophiles due to its sentence fragment (below) ‘if anyone saved a life, it would be if he saved the life of all mankind’, is an injunction for Muslims not to kill each other and the phrase ‘saving the life of all mankind’ clearly denotes that in-toto, mankind must be Moslem, to ‘be saved’. Moslems are forbidden to kill another Moslem but they can certainly murder, destroy or crucify Christians [5:33]:
|
Because of that We ordained for the Children of Israel that if anyone killed a person not in retaliation of murder, or (and) to spread mischief in the land - it would be as if he killed all mankind, and if anyone saved a life, it would be as if he saved the life of all mankind. And indeed, there came to them Our Messengers with clear proofs, evidences, and signs, even then after that many of them continued to exceed the limits (e.g. by doing oppression unjustly and exceeding beyond the limits set by Allah by committing the major sins) in the land!. |
|
|
The recompense of those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger and do mischief in the land is only that they shall be killed or crucified or their hands and their feet be cut off on the opposite sides, or be exiled from the land. That is their disgrace in this world, and a great torment is theirs in the Hereafter. |
Waging 'war' against Muhammadanism, simply means not accepting Koranic doctrine, or the supremacy of Muhammad and the Al Lah moon idol (Baal). Waging 'war' is simply disbelief in any of the total-tenets espoused by Muhammadanism. Blasphemy is punishable by death, as is the mere questioning of anything Muhammad said or did.
The animus to Christians extends beyond the above and Jihad, to all of civil society. Muslims may be forced to live with Christians, but a ‘good’ Muslim cannot take Christians as friends (certainly never as equals):
|
O you who believe! Take not the Jews and the Christians as Auliya' (friends, protectors, helpers, etc.), they are but Auliya' to one another. And if any amongst you takes them as Auliya', then surely he is one of them. Verily, Allah guides not those people who are the Zalimun (polytheists and wrongdoers and unjust). |
|
The recompense of those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger and do mischief in the land is only that they shall be killed or crucified or their hands and their feet be cut off on the opposite sides, or be exiled from the land. That is their disgrace in this world, and a great torment is theirs in the Hereafter. |
Friendship is impossible with the Trinity worshipping Christians (hence pagan in the eyes of Muslims), who are linked to Judaism. Both ‘People of the Book’ have rejected the 'path' (05-15). In Koranic theology, Muhammad negates Christ (05-46, 05-65) and Mother Mary was actually a pious Muslim (05-75). Allah negates the Christian father or God. The Christian Trinity is a polytheist blasphemy.
Verse 5:14 condemns Christians for rejecting the Al Lah or Baal the moon idol of Mecca. Blasphemy is punishable by death in Koranic-Muhammadan ‘law’.
|
And from those who call themselves Christians, We took their covenant, but they have abandoned a good part of the Message that was sent to them. So We planted amongst them enmity and hatred till the Day of Resurrection (when they discarded Allah's Book, disobeyed Allah's Messengers and His Orders and transgressed beyond bounds in Allah's disobedience), and Allah will inform them of what they used to do. |
Verse 5:73 clearly expresses that the Christian Trinity is a false and blasphemous or criminal belief:
|
Surely, disbelievers are those who said: "Allah is the third of the three (in a Trinity)." But there is no ilah (god) (none who has the right to be worshipped) but One Ilah (God -Allah). And if they cease not from what they say, verily, a painful torment will befall the disbelievers among them. |
Christians are nothing but slaves of Allah [5:118], as was their leader Christ.
Muslims must war against the followers of Christs, because in the modern parlance, the Christians are ‘extremists’, transgressing the known ‘laws’ of Al Lah-Muhammad and engaged in acts of evil:
|
Say (O Muhammad SAW): "O people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians)! Exceed not the limits in your religion (by believing in something) other than the truth, and do not follow the vain desires of people who went astray in times gone by, and who misled many, and strayed (themselves) from the Right Path." |
|
|
Those among the Children of Israel who disbelieved were cursed by the tongue of Dawud (David) and 'Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary). That was because they disobeyed (Allah and the Messengers) and were ever transgressing beyond bounds. |
|
|
They used not to forbid one another from the Munkar (wrong, evildoing, sins, polytheism, disbelief, etc.) which they committed. Vile indeed was what they used to do. |
Due to these 'transgressions' and most importantly for the cult of Islam, Christians can be killed, executed or crucified for spreading ‘polytheism’ or ‘disbelief’.
Sura 5 is simply an atavistic, vicious, ruthless, bloody, totalitarian, and totally intolerant screed of Christophobia. It advocates the killing of Christians and tries to marginalize all Christian belief including the Trinity, the virgin birth, the crucifixion of Christ and the Risen. It supplants Christ with Muhammad and the Christian Father with Allah. It demands that Moslems attack and murder Christians until they become good slaves of Allah. The Koran is presented as the only 'truth', one which supersedes the Gospels, and which mandates blind devotion.
