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.
During 1400 years of Jihad, some 150 million Christians have been killed by the Meccan moon cult named Submission. Millions of Christians living under Dhimmitude or a 2nd class slave status, gave up their faith and converted to the Meccan cult during the same period. Taxed, beaten, raped, open to pillage and contempt; millions of Christians over the centuries simply adopted the totalitarian theology of their conquerors to lessen the pain of living.
Jihad or the struggle to subdue, kill or convert the hated Kufar, is a vital element in Islam. Beheading and crucifixion verses abound in the Koran and Hadith [8:34, 5:33 for eg]. None of the images below will ever make it to a main stream, lame-brain media broadcast. Imagine if Catholics had enacted similar barbarisms against Moslems. There would be an endless call by the big-brains to disband the entire edifice of the Catholic Church. Not so with the Meccan moon cult. More calls for love, tolerance, and more declarations of Islam's superiority from the big-brains.
