Criticism of Islam
Christopher Logan
By: Christopher Logan
About a week ago, Pat Robertson stated
that Islam is a "violent political system."
He happens to be correct, but as usual
one of our politicians has to come running to stand up for a religion/political
system that they know little about.
Virginia's 11Th District Congressman Gerry Connolly (D), has
issued this statement calling for Pat...

Does
Islam Breed Violence?

There
is a division of the house. On one side are the politically correct
in government, the leftist mainstream media, and a raft of Islamist
apologists. One and all are tripping over each other in reassuring us
that the mass
murderers
such as Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan and suicide
bombers
who detonate their explosive vests in crowded marketplaces and...

It's not every day that religion appears as a front page story in today's newspapers all over the world, particularly on a regular basis! But over the past 20 years one religion has really made the front pages perhaps more than any other . . . it is the religion of Islam.
Islam claims more than one billion followers worldwide. It is not only the fastest growing religion in the world, but its...

Violence:
Socio-Economic
Phenomenon or Faith Motivated?
Introduction
Islam
came under the public spotlight, more than ever before, in the
aftermath of the 9/11 attacks on the USA. It was examined to discern
if and why it allowed nineteen Muslims to commit suicide and kill
three thousand others in doing so. Some commentators wrote of Islamic
militancy and defined...

“O you who believe ! Take not the Jews and the Christians as Auliyâ’ (friends, protectors, helpers, etc.), they are but Auliyâ’ to one another. And if any amongst you takes them as Auliyâ’, then surely he is...

In Islamic totalitarian regimes like Pakistan, Iran, Afghanistan and Saudi Arabia etc, mullah (Muslim counterpart of priest) plays the lead satanic role in provoking extremism among the people. Mullah itself has a very interesting origin.
Lets begin with a typical Muslim family, there are four sons, for instances, three of them are physical and mentally normal, they will get special...

Traditional Muslims who understand the Quran and the hadith believe that sharia (Islamic law) expresses the highest and best goals for all societies. It is the will of Allah.
But is Islam just in its laws that Muhammad himself practiced and invented?
This article says no for ten verifiable reasons.
Here are four points you must...

Many Muslims believe that the prophet Muhammad was a man endowed with super human powers in the realm of sexuality. Muslim males are especially proud of this Islamic tradition and often use it as material for jokes and boasting.
During my days in Islam, I remember a product being sold in an Islamic book store that was designed to give men extra sexual energy. It was a glass jar...

Muslims love to claim that Islam has granted women equal rights. Sadly, this is not true. The Quran states several times that women are to be granted less rights then those enjoyed by men.
This article will examine the status of women and their rights according to Islam, as well as some of the many disgusting things that Muhammad said regarding women.
The inherent oppression and...

Here is link to PART I
There are many good people who call themselves Muslims. Though as mentioned in part 1 of this series of articles, these personally honorable Muslims are ironically the worst of Muslims for they give a bad religion a good name and aid in its continuation. Those Muslims who act as Imams and Islamic “academics” and work to further the goals of this...

This being the continuation of Fr. Botros' examination of Muhammad's sexual morality (or lack thereof). See here for Part I. Last we left the priest and his co-host, the former noted that, "No less than 20 Islamic sources—such as the hadiths of Ahmad bin Hanbal—relay that Muhammad used to suck on the tongues of boys and girls.”
Botros proceeded to...

[Published earlier on "Jihad Watch"]
Life TV’s Father Zakaria Botros recently ran a show dedicated to discussing the question of morality and how it is—or should be—one of the hallmarks of “prophethood.” At the start, he posed the focal question of the show: “Was Muhammad the prophet a moral man—the most upright man, worthy of being emulated by the world?”
He opened the show by relying...

Who is Ilyaas? Ilyaas is translated as Elijah and Elias. Why? In the Greek, Elijah is known as Elias. Elijah is anglicanized from the Hebrew Eliyahu. The Greek version of the name is more similar to the Arabic. The original name is Eliyahu, the Greek translation came later in what is called the 'Septuagint'. The 's' in Elias exists because it is necessary in Greek grammar....

Americans are among the most tolerant and patriotic people in the world. As a nation of immigrants, there is a certain appeal to the idea of multiculturalism where people of different backgrounds are accepted in our communities. Our nation was founded on the principles of equality and freedom, and we have invested our...

If Islam's image means more to you than the suffering of those thousands of innocent people murdered and maimed explicitly in the name of Allah each year, (like the Talibans in Pakistan are doing) then, it means that you are definitely a Muslim (or at least a well-known type of Muslim) and this post is for you.
As a Muslim, you should know that life is full of tough choices to...

The Koran and Hadith Go Against Human Rights
Dr. Sami Alrabaa
The Koran, the holy book of Muslims, and Hadith (fatwas of the prophet Muhammad contain numerous passages that are incompatible with the UN Declaration of Human Rights to which, by the way, all Muslim states have officially subscribed.
One might argue that the Bible and the Old Testament of both...

Dhim·wit (dïm-wît): A non-Muslim member of a free society, who unwittingly abets the stated cause of Islamic domination. A dhimwit is always quick to extend sympathy to the very enemy that would take away his or her own freedom (or life) if given the opportunity. And Karen Amstrong fit this bill perfectly. Find out why?
Karen Amstrong, the dhimwit par excellence.
In her book...

The basic premise in this article is that there are no accidents in the occurrence of everything. It does seem everything in our Universe, material and non-material, is planned. And so is the advent of Islam. That Islam is here for an ultimate purpose. But what on Earth is Islam here for?
It all started with a lie about God
Before the prophet hood of Mohammad, the Arab society...

Sex and love are forces that, every day, lead to new problems and new
possibilities around the world. In male-dominated societies, like in
Bangladesh, women can often be treated as sexual objects. Women
experience sexual harassment, abduction, rape, and even murder. The
natural desire for sex and love has brought women unknown misery. The
fact is, when a woman gets raped, it is...

Muslims across the world will always lay claims of the wondrous and magical words of Allah, foretold in the Quran. They claim that Allah has had spoken to humans through their benevolent prophet Mohammad. As per the teachings of the sacred Quran, humanity has been bestowed with commands beneficial for their survival and are given collective ways to live a bountiful life on earth...

Apostasy in Islam is its rejection by any means. Spoken or written renunciation of Islam is apostasy. Open disloyalty or blasphemous acts, such as not fully believing in the Quran or refusing to migrate from one place or country, where Muslims feel oppressed, to another is also deemed to be apostasy. The Quran explicitly and implicitly says so in verse 4:97 and 4:89. The...

It only does shows itself as a religion of harmony and peace as long as it is in the minority. Once it is in the majority, then they change instituting their laws and ways of dealing with situations that is usually very, very brutal.
