[QUOTE="Grayson, post: 9533, member: 18"] [b]Islam[/b] in fear of being Elitist, high-brow or disassociated with reality here, I would proffer a few words here. :D There are few, if any, Religions that don't preach a [i] Smite thine enemies[/i] philosophy at some point in their respective faiths. Christianity does have a lot to answer for in respect of the current state of the Middle East, as does the old League of Nations in specific arguments regarding Israel. In our few brief and allegedly civilised Millenia on this Earth, more people have died under the banners of their respective Gods than to any other cause, save natural death. What makes the current Islamic Jihad so terrifying, is this seeming desire of its [i]Warriors[/i] to gladly d-ie and to wreak as much pain and suffering as possible on the way out. The root cause of this is faith, which is as counter-productive as it is productive dependant on its application. In Catholic Churches you are taught to have faith in God and to be willing to die for him, being rewarded with a place in Heaven if you d-ie under his banner. This we see as noble and worthy of our respect. But, where does this differ from Islamic faith? Islamic Fundamentalism has perfected the use of the word [i]Infidel[/i], which has no difference in its employment to [i]Untermensch[/i], a term used by the Germans to describe the Russian peoples and their Armies in WWII. This simple word marks them as a cut above the rest of humanity, to the point whereby our Children, Wives, Mothers and Fathers are simply a lower order of life to be exterminated in a blaze of Holy Fire. Where Fundamentalist Islam differs from the rest of us, under the banners of our respective version of God is this. The Soldiers of Islam have [i]faith[/i], faith in their Religious Leaders, like Khomenni held in the 80's, to be their moral guidance and word of the Lord. In this, they are then disassociated from the acts that they engage in. The Islamic Warrior has abrogated any responsibility for his acts, through this faith. His act of violence is given Divine Rights via the Voice of God on Earth, thus he will go to Paradise and lay with 40,000 Virgins for giving himself over so selflessly and he never has to wrestle with the moral imlications of this.

The Faith is conscripted into a far more sinister service, as the Koran does teach absolute obedience to ones God and his vessels. Hence the acts of violence must be divine and blessed, despite the fact that Islam promotes an understanding of other forms of Religion and tolerance to other peoples. Because of a distorted and deranged few, many die a divine death and are blessed for cleansing the Earth. Islam is not at fault here, a few vengeful men are. Someone once told me that Snakes without heads can never bite you on the arse. Why are these vengeful men so completely pissed at us that they would distort their own Religion to such ends? Can it be as shallow as the arguments that we see and hear on an everyday basis, or is there some piece of the puzzle that we are missing? Hitler got away with a lot more based on far more spurious reasoning and all under the Banner of a Christian God. Are we so shallow as a species that we will kill on a scale such a 911 for no great and fathomable reason? [/QUOTE]
