The Islamic Golden Rule: A Formula For Totalitarianism

The Muslims Make the Rules

Islam twists everything up into surreal webs of logic from which no man can escape with his soul.

Observe, the Islamic Golden Rule:

In his Last Sermon, the Prophet Muhammad admonished believers:

"Hurt no one so that no one may hurt you." (Pastorius note: This is not moral thinking. Instead, it is just practical advice based upon the idea of reciprocity.)

Jeffrey Wattles holds that the ethic of reciprocity appears in the
following statements attributed to Muhammad:

[20] “Woe to those . . . who, when they have to receive by measure from
men, exact full measure, but when they have to give by measure or weight to men,
give less than due”

[21] The Qur'an commends "those who show their affection to such as came to
them for refuge and entertain no desire in their hearts for things given to the
(latter), but give them preference over themselves"

[22] “None of you [truly] believes until he wishes for his brother what he
wishes for himself.”

[23] "Seek for mankind that of which you are desirous for yourself, that
you may be a believer; treat well as a neighbor the one who lives near you, that
you may be a Muslim
[one who submits to God]."

[24] “That which you want for yourself, seek for mankind.”

[24] "The most righteous of men is the one who is glad that men should have
what is pleasing to himself, and who dislikes for them what is for him
disagreeable."


In other words, make a rule, for all mankind, of whatever you desire for yourself. Does that sound familiar? It ought to, as it is the basic idea of leftism as well.

The Islamic Golden Rule is not anything like the Judeo-Christian Golden Rule, which calls for us to treat each other as we would want to be treated.

Instead, the Islamic Golden Rule is a formula for totalitarianism.

Islam is not a religion exhorting its followers on to be better people. It is, instead, a totalitarian ideology, pure and simple.

The fact that Sharia law requires death for so many lesser acts, and that this cannot be changed, proves how hideous it is.

Christianity used to be kinda nasty, but it changed with the times. Hell, back in the seriously old days, man was pretty damn nasty to each other. But, modern times with it's ensuing conscious and education, has made most people a whole lot more civil. It is only in the Muslim countries (and maybe some really deep in the backwoods tribal areas) that people have not evolved.

Evolved. Now there's a concept that should be contemplated by the so called moderate muslims. If Islam is unable to evolve and change with the times to become more humane, then it must be wiped out. The multi-culturists can go to hell.

Christianity is nasty in spite of its scriptures, which do not call for nastiness, but instead call for us to love one another. Christ ate and drank with sinners, he did not call for them to be killed. Christ conquered no territory, even while there were those who were encouraging him to do so.

Instead, he insisted his Kingdom was with the Father in Heaven.

Islam is the opposite. And, that is the point of this post.

Ditto, Pastorious, here and in your post. Well put.

Gracias, mi amigo.

Well said, Pastorius,
we must fight until this evil is eliminated from the planet..

Pastorius said...

I think that the level of evil is such that only God can remove it from the hearts of men.

I know it sounds melodramatic, but it is scriptural.

We can fight to help those who might otherwise succumb, and we can fight to stop the Jihadis from trying to kill us all, but we could never put down an ideology like Islam on our own.

Wow, whatever happened to turning the other cheek and loving your fellow man. This intolerance of other cultures is absolutely unacceptable to me. Be shamed.

Jonesy,
Wow! Whatever ever happened to critical analysis?

Basically, the point here, is that Islamic civilization doesn't have the notion of turning the other cheek. So, have fun getting smacked in the face over and over. If you want to send us videos, I'd love to see them.

Bosch Fawstin said...

jonesy, if you had an ounce of nerve, you'd direct your exact words to those in the Muslim world who deserve it, instead of deflecting it to the truly tolerant who mean you no harm. The enemy's counting on idiot's like you.

Pastorius said...

Damien,
I've attempted to have that kind of conversation with lefties. It doesn't work because they will not actually address the issue of good vs. evil.

Indeed it is such an evil concept that the Quran presents: wish for others what you wish for yourself. Every sane person wished the best for oneself...
TERRIBLE!! All that leftist carp, we should live by the right-wing ideals: hate everyone and everything, be selfish....That is the right way!
