Western Civilisation

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.

Christianophobia in the Koran - Recent Articles

The first half of Sura 2: Christophobia and Islam's hatred of Christians.

33% of the first part of Sura 2 is Christophobic. Enriching? Tolerant? Or is it simply what it is.

 

We are told by the Marxists, Secularists, and cult worshippers of the state, the warm [weather fascists], the homosexual, the feminists, and sundry other worthies, that Islam and perforce all Moslems are pro-Christian 'extremists', spending most of their day eagerly kissing, embracing and loving their 'brothers' and co-equal 'people of the book'. These big–brains would have us believe that Moslems love Christians more than themselves – a difficult proposition for a cult that is so egotistically self-absorbed that badly drawn cartoons about Muhammad spark riots and death. In the real world, we have seen how historically for 1400 years, Christians have been enslaved, slaughtered, raped, and confined to second-class dhimmitude status within the Moslem world. 

 

Does the Koran promote this hatred of Christians? Is there Koranic Christianophobia? Curious minds would like to know.

 

  • Number of verses in Sura 2: 286
  • Number of verses in the first part of Sura 2: 120
  • Number of verses of Christophobia in the first part of Sura 2: 39

 % of Christianophobic verses in the first part of Sura 2 of the total: 33 %

[Much of this Sura is also Anti-Semitic of course]

 

Sura 2 or the Heifer is one of the last 'revelatory' chapters given by the archangel Gabriel, he of Gospel fame, to Muhammad, on behalf of the former family deity and moon idol Hub'Al, recast by Muhammad as the monotheistic Al-Lah or 'The One'. Being one of the last 'communications' with the divine, Sura 2 is of great importance in the Koran and within Moslem liturgy. Over half of this Sura is Christianophic with at least 15 % of this chapter, or some 44 verses [bare minimum], being openly violent and preaching the physical destruction of the Christians. Combined these examples of Christianophobia appear to be a surprisingly large and intolerant amount from a cult dedicated to peace and brotherly love:

 

 There is lots of compulsion within Islam and Sura 2. 44 verses make the following clear. The Jews and Christians are inferior to Moslems. Unbelievers [Christians and Jews], are in league with Satan, blind, greedy and stupid. Due to this Moslems can kill them. Allah wants Moslems to war against the Unbelievers and destroy them since they are sinners and a threat to the Allah cult. Even if Moslems do not kill the Unbelievers, all unclean sinners and criminal polytheists will burn in hellfire on Judgement Day. If Moslems turn away from their duty they will be viewed as part of Al-Mushrikun or an idolator. They will thus be punished. Allah can do this since Allah knows all and Allah is acquainted with everything which transpires in the material and spiritual realms. The 'good' humans and those destined for paradise are therefore those who simply follow the Allah cult and its creed.....This is the main message of the Moslem cult. A religion this is not." 

 

Christianophobia is particularly rife in Sura 2, as the chapter makes lurid claims about the superiority of Moslems over Christians. Contrary to the lame-brain media expostulation that Moslems deeply covet friendship with Christians, admiring them as 'people of the book', Moslems look down upon Christians as inferiors, and the reference, 'people of the book' is a pejorative, since within the Koran the book of the Jews and Christians is always described as corrupt, stupid, immoral, 'wrong', 'erroneous' and satanic. The only 'book' worth reading is of course the Koran, not the Torah or Bible. Read the following carefully. It is very obvious that the 'book' of the Christians and Jews is utterly wrong, according to Moslem theology:

This is the Book (the Qur'an), whereof there is no doubt, a guidance to those who are Al-Muttaqun [the pious and righteous persons who fear Allah much (abstain from all kinds of sins and evil deeds which He has forbidden) and love Allah much (perform all kinds of good deeds which He has ordained)].

And who believe in (the Qur'an and the Sunnah) which has been sent down (revealed) to you (Muhammad Peace be upon him) and in [the Taurat (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel), etc.] which were sent down before you and they believe with certainty in the Hereafter. (Resurrection, recompense of their good and bad deeds, Paradise and Hell, etc.).

They are on (true) guidance from their Lord, and they are the successful.

It is quite obvious that the Jews and Christians are 'hypocrites' who pretend to worship Al-Lah, but in fact reject him. They deceive the Allah, and will disbelieve. Jews and Christians will thus be tormented in this life and the next for rejecting Al-Lah's guidance.

But if you do it not, and you can never do it, then fear the Fire (Hell) whose fuel is men and stones, prepared for the disbelievers.

 

Jews and Christians must not only fear the Al-Lah thing and worship it, but also venerate Muhammad. Muhammad replaces Christ in effect, and the Muhammad-Al Lah nexus, replaces the Trinity. If a Christian does not revere the Koran, in which it states very clearly that both Al-Lah and Muhammad are to be followed for salvation, they are damned to hellfire. Further Islam demands that Christians recognize that Muhammad is foretold by Isiah and other prophets, indeed he replaces Christ as the fulfilment of Jewish and Christian theology. Denying this will earn the good Christian a place in Moslem hell.

Fear Al-Lah, and obey Muhammad. In other words reject completely your own Christian worship, practices and beliefs.

So We made this punishment an example to their own and to succeeding generations and a lesson to those who are Al-Muttaqun (the pious - see V.2:2).

 

 

Jews and Christians rejected the Al-Lah idol, and will now receive their punishment. This is rather obtuse since Judaism as a monotheistic endeavour dates from the Hebraic traditions beginning with Abraham circa 2250 BC, or a mere 2900 years or so before the advent of Islam. Christianity pre-dates the Meccan cult by 600 years. Yet in the fantasy-world of the Koran, the Al-Lah idol and his book, existed long before either of these monotheistic systems were developed. This is very convenient for a supremacist cult which usurps history and common-sense and says 'we were first, and we are therefore better'. It sounds like the chanting of a 5 year old.

 

 

If a Jew or Christian denies that Muhammad is mentioned in the Torah or gospels, or that he is the last and most supreme of the prophets, they are doomed to hellfire.

Or is it that you say of Allah what you know not?"

 

 

Jews knew that Muhammad was insane and illiterate, and therefore the Koran or Muhammad's recitals a mass of gibberish and plagiarized copy [hence the admonition from the Al-Lah thing that anyone making up a Koranic verse will be punished 2:79]. Such claims must have greatly annoyed Muhammad and so he 'reveals' the above verses to negate criticism of the Koran being a fantasy mixed with plagiarized verses from the Torah, Gospels and Arab pagan prayers.

Whatever a Verse (revelation) do We abrogate or cause to be forgotten, We bring a better one or similar to it. Know you not that Allah is able to do all things?

 

 

 

The Christians are clearly warned here to believe in the Allah, not to engage in the idolatrous practice of worshipping the Trinity, and not to question Koranic inconsistency, such as abrogation, or new verses replacing old ones [the Satanic verses are a clear example of this].

 

 

Muhammad's illiteracy about Judaism and Christianity is obvious and enormous. A simple example is this claim that Jews and Christians are doomed to hell since the two sects cannot agree on the meaning of the same 'book'. This is ridiculous. In Christiant theology the Old Testament predicts the New, with the 39 books of the Old Testament supporting and confirming the 27 books of the New Testament. Jews focus on the Torah and Old Testament, Christians in the 7th century, on the entire corpus of 66 books, with the end of prophecy being the life, death and resurrection of Christ. Demanding that a Christian stop worshipping the Trinity is similar to demanding a rejection of imbibing water and food.

Many of the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) wish that if they could turn you away as disbelievers after you have believed, out of envy from their ownselves, even, after the truth (that Muhammad Peace be upon him is Allah's Messenger) has become manifest unto them. But forgive and overlook, till Allah brings His Command. Verily, Allah is Able to do all things.

[See Tafsir Ibn Kathir, Vol.1, Page 154].

The Jews said that the Christians follow nothing (i.e. are not on the right religion); and the Christians said that the Jews follow nothing (i.e. are not on the right religion); though they both recite the Scripture. Like unto their word, said (the pagans) who know not. Allah will judge between them on the Day of Resurrection about that wherein they have been differing.

   

 

 

The above is obviously incorrect. Jews and Christians do not state that the other 'follows nothing'. They worship different ideals and 'proofs'. Christians embrace the Old Testament. They don't regard it as 'nothing'.

 

The main ideal of this Sura is found in the following verses, where Muhammad demands that Christians and Jews worship himself and Al-Lah and discontinue their polytheistic, pagan practices.

And they (Jews, Christians and pagans) say: Allah has begotten a son (children or offspring). Glory be to Him (Exalted be He above all that they associate with Him). Nay, to Him belongs all that is in the heavens and on earth, and all surrender with obedience (in worship) to Him.

Verily, We have sent you (O Muhammad Peace be upon him) with the truth (Islam), a bringer of glad tidings (for those who believe in what you brought, that they will enter Paradise) and a warner (for those who disbelieve in what you brought, they will enter the Hell-fire). And you will not be asked about the dwellers of the blazing Fire.

  

 

 

If Jews and Christians reject Muhammad, 'the plain warner' they are going to hell. Period. Islam is the only 'truth' and replaces the Torah and gospels [2:119]. Al-Lah cannot produce a son, and cannot be a part of a Trinity [2:116]. Al-Lah simply does what he wants [2:117] and will tell you what to do. Jews and Christians should give up their erroneous ways and embrace Muhammadanism:

 

  

002:120

Never will the Jews nor the Christians be pleased with you (O Muhammad Peace be upon him) till you follow their religion. Say: "Verily, the Guidance of Allah (i.e. Islamic Monotheism) that is the (only) Guidance. And if you (O Muhammad Peace be upon him) were to follow their (Jews and Christians) desires after what you have received of Knowledge (i.e. the Qur'an), then you would have against Allah neither any Wali (protector or guardian) nor any helper.

  

 

 

The above is important. Al-Lah is telling the most important human in history, Muhammad, that the Jews and Christians will never willingly convert to Islam or the cult of Muhammad. This sets the stage for the next development of Christianophobia within Sura 2 – the call to Jihad against the polytheistic Trinity worshippers, a theme which takes up a lot of ink in the book Recital, one supposedly dedicated to peace and love.

  

Christianophobia within Sura 2 verses 1:120: 39 or 33 %

Sura 2 or ‘The Heifer’ and Christophobia.

Mein Koran is more Christophobic than it is anti-Semitic.


Is This the End of Christianity in the Middle East? - The New York Times

In the unlikely event that a Westerner will bother to read Mein Koran to find out what the cult of Muhammad is all about, we can list some vehement anti-Christian or Christophobic verses contained in this unholy book and chapter 2 including: 146, 159, 161-163, 174-176, 190-191, 193, 212, 216, 217, 221, 244, 256-258, 272, 274, 276, 286.  Some 15-20% of this chapter or Sura is decidedly Christophobic.  The rest is the usual incantation to conquer, dominate, enslave, control and Jihad.

Within ‘The Heifer’ the famous verse of 256 is displayed.  It is this tortured verse which provides almost all the standard bromides used by Muhammadan apologists to excuse the ‘real Islam’ from the ‘extremist Islam’.  The Koran is the Koran.  There is no light, moderate or extremist version of Mein Koran.  It says what it says.  Have a look at verse 256 and see what it really states:

 

There is no compulsion in religion. Verily, the Right Path has become distinct from the wrong path.  Whoever disbelieves in Taghut and believes in Allah, then he has grasped the most trustworthy handhold that will never break. And Allah is All-Hearer, All-Knower.

 

The Muslimophiles and ignoramuses only quote this fragment, ‘There is no compulsion in religion’.  This is used when Muhammad’s cult is weak.  ‘Don’t compel me to accept your religion or paganism’ the Muslim pleads, as Muhammad did in Mecca when his cult of miscreants and deviants were confronted by the ruling elite of Mecca and told to halt their activities which were hurting trade and pilgrimages to the Kaaba or shrine of celestial idols worshipped by Arabs including the moon deity or the Al ilah or Lord of Mecca (Hu’baal). 

 

But read on.  The right path, i.e. the Muslim or Muhammadan path is obviously the only way to go.  Whoever disbelieves the Taghut or the pagan worship of other idols, and embraces the Al Lah of Mecca or Muhammad’s family idol Baal, will be blessed and exalted.  This includes Christians who worship the Trinity which is viewed as a blasphemy and a polytheism (see Sura 13) by Muhammadans.  Christ is not divine in the Koran; he is just another prophet and one who apparently was a Moslem, prophesising the rise of Muhammad.  Yes, the Koran is that illiterate. 

 

The above verse 256, is therefore not a statement of tolerance but the exact opposite.  But if not exhausted by reading one verse and not pressed for time to return to Tik Tok and Instagram, the curious reader may bravely sally into the next verse, 257.

 

Allah is the Wali (Protector or Guardian) of those who believe. He brings them out from darkness into light. But as for those who disbelieve, their Auliya (supporters and helpers) are Taghut [false deities and false leaders, etc.], they bring them out from light into darkness. Those are the dwellers of the Fire, and they will abide therein forever.

 

Not much tolerance in that verse.  If you are ‘Taghut’ or a follower of any other ideology, other than Muhammadanism, including being a Christian or Jew, you will dwell in hell-fire forever.  If not exhausted and demoralised by reading two verses the intrepid thought-crime committer can continue to verse 258 and be told that Abraham or Ibrahim, the patriarch of the Hebrews was of course a practicing Muslim, some 2600 years before the cult of Muhammad was conceived.  Such a demented, distorted world-view is apparently entirely rational for a believing Koranian.   

 

Have you not looked at him who disputed with Ibrahim (Abraham) about his Lord (Allah), because Allah had given him the kingdom? When Ibrahim (Abraham) said (to him): "My Lord (Allah) is He Who gives life and causes death." He said, "I give life and cause death." Ibrahim (Abraham) said, "Verily! Allah causes the sun to rise from the east; then cause it you to rise from the west."  So the disbeliever was utterly defeated. And Allah guides not the people, who are Zalimun (wrong-doers, etc.).

 

So here we have the madness of Mein Koran.  Abraham, Christ, all the prophets and even Christian saints and apostles, were Muslim.  Contemporary Christians who do not accept this and who reject the Muhammadan cult and who believe in Taghut, are ‘Zalimun’ defined by Mein Koran as criminal polytheists who are evil and uncleanZalimun must be destroyed.  That is what this book states.  The insanity and intolerance do dazzle. 

 

The Christophobia in Mein Koran is an obsessive theme.  This hatred of the Christian was and still is an animating force for Muslim expansion, and imperialism, both inside Western states who were once nominally Christian and inside Muslim states who do not tolerate Christianity and do not allow its evangelisation or spread.  The book is the problem.  The hatred of Christians is the problem.  Tolerance indeed.

Sura 9 and Jihad against Christians

A text demanding either the submission or eradication of Christians.

 

Sura 9 or ‘Repetance’ is one of the last two 'revelations' given to the ‘Prophet’ Muhammad and Sura 9 is theologically more important than earlier Medina or Mecca ‘revelations’ or Suras.  This is the Muslim ‘law of abrogation’.  What Sura 9 or Sura 5 explain and advocate, is more vital to Sharia and Muslim society and development, than what one can find in earlier verses.  Sura 9 not as long as Sura 5, and in many places copies or restates what one can find in the longer Suras from 2-8.  The 129 verses of Sura 9 reiterate and emphasises the 4 main ideas of the Koran:

 

1.     Obey Allah (Baal or the moon deity of Mecca),

2.     Follow his Messenger Muhammad,

3.     Demonise the Christians and Jews, and

4.     Fight and conquer unbelievers (non-Muslims)

 

We can count the number of verses within Sura 9, which directly demand violence against the Kufar ‘ape and pig’ to quote the Koran. Here is what the lay reader will find. Out of 129 verses in this Sura fully 32 verses preach violence against the Infidel. 32 is 24.8% or ¼ of the Sura demanding that Moslems attack and subdue the Infidel as an obligation to Allah/Muhammad.  This ‘law’ has informed 1400 years of Muslim Jihad.

 

The verses in this Sura which comprise the violent 25% are: 2, 4, 5, 12, 13, 14, 16, 19, 20, 24, 25, 26, 29, 30, 33, 36, 38, 39, 40, 41, 43, 44, 63, 68, 73, 90, 93, 100, 101, 111, 123. The rest of the Sura does not discuss tolerance, love, multi-cult harmony or acceptance of the 'Other'.  Most of the remaining 75% simply demand obedience to Muhammad/Allah, explaining why Moslems can and should break contracts with the Infidel swine, and why the Bedouins who are pagans and don’t follow Muhammad, or who whine about the 'fine' or Zakat tax (given to poor Muslims only) and paid to Muhammad to distribute, will be tormented and destroyed. 

 

Some of the more obvious and direct phrases of inducement to violence against the non-Muhammadan include:

 

14: Fight against them so that Allah will punish them by your hands and disgrace them and give you victory over them and heal the breasts of a believing people,

 

25: Truly Allah has given you victory on many battle fields, and on the Day of Hunain (battle) when you rejoiced at your great number but it availed you naught and the earth, vast as it is, was straitened for you, then you turned back in flight.

 

29: Fight against those who (1) believe not in Allah, (2) nor in the Last Day, (3) nor forbid that which has been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger (4) and those who acknowledge not the religion of truth (i.e. Islam) among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians), until they pay the Jizyah with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.

 

39: If you march not forth, He will punish you with a painful torment and will replace you by another people, and you cannot harm Him at all, and Allah is Able to do all things.

 

44: Those who believe in Allah and the Last Day would not ask your leave to be exempted from fighting with their properties and their lives, and Allah is the All-Knower of Al-Muttaqun (the pious - see V.2:2).

 

63: Know they not that whoever opposes and shows hostility to Allah and His Messenger (SAW), certainly for him will be the Fire of Hell to abide therein. That is extreme disgrace.

 

101: And among the bedouins round about you, some are hypocrites, and so are some among the people of Al-Madinah, they exaggerate and persist in hypocrisy, you (O Muhammad SAW) know them not, We know them. We shall punish them twice, and thereafter they shall be brought back to a great (horrible) torment.

 

And on it goes. There is not one single sentence fragment which discusses ethics, spirituality, free-will, a respect for human life....nothing. It is a screed demanding war, Jihad, submission to the Muhammad idol, and a justification for the 'Allah tax' or Zakat, wrongly conflated by the large brains in the West with charity when it is simply a financial tool to keep the Umma strong and the expansion of the cult an on-going concern.

 

Sura 9 is either the first or second most important chapter in the Koran. Its call to supremacism, hate, Jihad and expansion must have an effect on Islamic and Moslem culture. How can Moslems read from this Sura and miss the irrational, free-will denying intent of this declamation?  Obviously it would incite violence and intolerance in the more devout and fanatical who believe in the fantastical revelations of Muhammad.
