Islam remains rooted in 7th century tribalism and never had a Reformation or an Enlightenment, cultural changes that shaped modern Christianity. The teachings of Jesus are not based on violence, revenge or temporal punishment for disbelief. Certainly Christianity had its Inquisition and persecutions, but these excesses have not continued to be incorporated into its teaching. There may be peaceful Muslims, but that radical jihadism continues unabated in mosques around the world is evidence that many rank and file Muslims to one degree or another support jihad if not actively, but through doing nothing to oppose it. Until I see these radicals driven from the mosques, everyday Muslims denouncing this extremism and Islamic leaders actively rooting out these jihadists, I see little hope for Islam surviving what will soon become a global war resulting in the utter destruction of Islam.

All true.

And in the West, relativism rules the day.

A lazy and superficial understanding or misunderstanding of those differences by a seemingly increasing number of fools and tools are driving the false narrative with the force of a “Politically Correct” Government and media.

It goes way beyond the “Emperor having no clothes”.

It’s more than willful ignorance.

It’s becoming “Forced ignorance”.
