(VANITY) IS ISLAM AN EXTREME OR MODERATE RELIGION?

Posted on 12/27/2015 6:14:11 PM PST by cradle of freedom

Everyone seems to be scratching their heads now trying to figure out the difference between a moderate Muslim or an extreme or radicalized Muslim because all the talking heads seem to agree that moderate Muslims are good but radical or extreme Muslims are bad. So how do we know who is a good Muslim and who is a extreme Muslim?

Let's go back to the beginning of Islam. How did Mohammed spread his teachings? He gathered a small army together and began attacking Arab tribes, one tribe at a time. When he won the battle he would force the other tribe to convert to Islam and join his army or they would be killed. If they joined they would share in the booty of conquest with Mohammed's band, if they refused they would be killed.

Mohammed eventually united all of the Arab tribes under the banner of Islam which gave him a very large army that was comparable to the armies of nations surrounding the Arabs. Then they were equals to the other nations around them.

Mohammed began attacking neighboring countries with his army. He would cross into another country with this army and wage war. Then when the time was right he would attack a second country etc.

Eventually Muslim armies controlled lands from Portugal and Morocco all the way to Indonesia. Each time he crossed into another country, it was an act of war. We call that invasion, it was not a friendly act. Mohammed did not send apostles as Jesus did--he send armies. Every invasion was an act of violence. There was nothing peaceful about it. That is how Islam began and no one can dispute that simple fact.

So do you tell a moderate Muslim from an extreme Muslim?

islam is a death cult designed to permit rape, pillage and plunder. Nothing more.

As far as I can tell, the difference is: an extreme muslim wants to kill you; a moderate muslim wants the extreme muslim to kill you.

Islam is an all encompassing political system. It requires subservience to the Islamic state. It requires those living under its rule to bow 5 times a day, every day, in allegiance to the empire.

How moderate is Communism?

Not a religion at all......It’s a political system. It has no country because the goal is conquering the world. Mohammed was just an earlier version of Hitler.

Between beheading and bombings they’re basically considered to be moderate.

The closer they follow the example of their prophet and his instructions in their book the more dangerous they are.

ISIS is Islam

Islam has been at war with everyone else since 622 A.D.

Islam is a religion that’s historically been spread by violence. I think of all the active wars today, Muslims are on one or both sides of all of them.

Islam is not a religion. It is a scam devised by a degenerate to give him license for his perversions. Nothing more.

The question is wrong. It’s a malignant religion. It’s racist malignant religion. There is no moderate. They’re just cancer cells waiting to spread and metastasize.

Are you looking for a discussion, or a recitation of the standard “Islam-is-a-death-cult” and “We-need-to-kill-them-all”?

Perhaps at it’s very earliest stage; but only total sold out religious belief will motive someone to deliberately die for it.
